Here you'll find a couple of sexy related articles I've written. Both of them are from my Marriage & Love Blog.

Article One:

Sexy Body - What's All the Fuss About?

Sexy body syndrome - the obsession of having a sexy body - is an amazing American addiction. But my question is why? Follow me through a few thoughts - we'll delve into some "truths" about the sexy body - particularly in the context of relationships, love, dating, marriage and living happily ever after with your prince or princess.

Everyone wants to have a sexy body - everyone likes to see a sexy body. The attraction to a sexy body (male or female) cannot be denied. It's like a chemical thing - we react in a primitive manner - it's like we can't help it - we're drawn to that sexy body.

If a sexy body is such an important part of a dating or marriage relationship - why do thousands of sexy bodied men and women continue to walk in the shadow of loneliness every day? Why do they continue to cheat, get divorced and have miserable relationships? Maybe the sexy body isn't as important as we think?

With our natural tendencies to be highly drawn to those with a sexy body - it's easy to understand why we might place such a high emphasis on its importance. Not to mention the barrage of sexy body marketing we're hit with daily. However, why are we continually fooled into thinking that if we can just have that awesome sexy body - we'll find our prince or princess and live happily ever after?

Everyone knows that a sexy body is temporary. If you don't believe me - take a look at folks who've been married a few years - particularly those with kids? How many of those people still have a sexy body? Ladies, what do children do to that sexy body? Time and again, you see the newly divorced man or woman - working out at the gym, losing weight - working to find that sexy body once again. Why? Think about it - a sexy body is a great way to attract guys - but it's more likened to the way a man is attracted to a big juicy steak. Why would any man or woman want to be a steak? I know it makes us feel good for guys or gals to look at us with desire. But when you're seeking a serious relationship - you know - the one where you live happily ever after? Why start the relationship on the foundation of a sexy body - a sexy body that probably won't be around in a few years (maybe less)?

Ok, I'm a man and I'm attracted to those sexy bodies just as much as any other man. However, having been happily married for over 10 years - I can tell you from experience - those little things that help you to live happily ever after with your prince or princess have nothing to do with a sexy body. Things like respect, giving, communication, mutual admiration, fun, smiles, sharing, serving, caring, loyalty, commitment, etc.

So, next time you find yourself feeling down because you don't have the sexy body you think you need in order to be happy - give yourself a "sexy body reality check". Remember those things that truly are important to the goal of living happily ever after with your prince or princess and stop trying to be a big juicy steak. After all, what does a person do when he/she is finished with that juicy steak?

Sexy Body - How do Men Really Feel?

Sexy body here, a sexy body there - everywhere you look - someone is telling you to get a sexy body and promising great rewards. Ladies, don't waist your time striving for that sexy body - there's good news and some basic things you need to learn about men.

First, men will always respond positively to a woman with a sexy body - it's really not even a choice we have. When we see a woman with a sexy body - it's hard not to notice. But MANY other things are more important to us. Don't let yourself be deceived by the billion dollar "sexy body" industry. There are other characteristics men would rather find in a woman or wife than a "sexy body". Take a look at these five:

1) Stay fit and healthy. Men like women who exercise and stay fit - it shows you care about yourself, builds your self esteem and gives you confidence. All of which make you look better in his eyes. Just forget about the quest for that sexy body.

2) A woman with a strong desire to please her man in bed will look more sexy - in his eyes - than a babe with a super sexy body. Try it, lose your inhibitions and make your bedroom a place where his fantasies come true.

3) Lose the "I'm tired" stuff - everyone is tired - him too. When you're chronically negative - for whatever reason - you will look less desirable in his eyes. Have you ever known an older woman (age 50 or so) who always seemed to act like she was in her 30's? Men like that - work on acting younger he'll begin to see you like you really do have a sexy body.

4) Men would rather be in a relationship with a woman who shows him true respect and admiration than with a blond babe sporting a super sexy body. It's true, you'll be looking like you've got a sexy body - in his eyes - when you show him true respect.

5) Often, women with a sexy body are quite devoted to themselves. After all, it takes a lot of work to maintain that look. Don't be deceived, men grow tired of women who are only interested in themselves and how they look. Don't misunderstand, it's important that you take pride in your appearance, but don't let it consume you - it will grow old in your man's eyes.
