A cool little meme seen on Redzilla and Val's blogs. Mind if I play along?
1. What is a physical feature you admire in both men and women, that you find yourself noticing or comparing when out and about?
I love a nose with character and charm, on both men and women. I love graceful arms and hands. A man with shirt sleeves rolled up to just below the elbow, exposing toned forearms with small wrists, fine-boned, expressive, thin-skinned hands and just the right amount of arm air (not a gorilla, but not a waxed freak), is a total turnon. I prefer pianist's hands to string-players' hands. I've dated professional violists and violinists; their left-hand fingertips get all flattened and calloused.On women, I really dislike the ultra-chiselled, stringy, overly muscular arms that seem to be the rage in Hollywood (e.g. Madonna and Jennifer Aniston). I like slender, feminine arms. I think Kzinti answered this question with "good posture", which I also find extremely attractive. Perhaps because I'm brown, I'm also fascinated with pale, creamy skin. I love those British and Dutch men with the rose-and-white complexions, and pink knuckles.
2. Who is someone we've heard of who possesses this admirable feature?
Mr. BrownA has a great nose, lovely hands and a beautiful fair complexion. My concert pianist ex had marvellous hands, of course. All the dancers I know have amazing posture.
3. If you could "safely" explore an addictive or otherwise unhealthful or unsafe vice, which one would you choose and why?
I have a profound aversion to excess of any kind. I admire discipline, and indulging in too much of anything--booze, drugs, food, sex, gambling-- is anathema. That being said, when I was on percocet for my horse-fall injuries back in November, the effect was interesting. It isn't so much that the pain completely disappears-- you just don't give a shit. Plus I slept like a baby. So I would have to say painkillers.
4. In which TV show currently airing would you like to be a regular character? Describe the character a bit.
I'd like to be on Rome. I think I'd be an exotic, wealthy young widow from "the east", educated and well-travelled. Part of Roman society but, as a foreigner, exempt from its restrictions. I'd be a patroness of the arts--but I'd be secretly spying for Rome's enemies. Perhaps a romantic entanglement with Vorenus would be in the cards.
5. If you could be a member of the opposite sex for a day, what you would try out?
I'd love to know what it's like to be really strong--guy strong. Like, to have enough upper body strength to do stunts like chin-ups and one-armed push ups, and lift heavy shit.
