10 Actions Women Do That Men Find Super Attractive & Vice Versa


Desirable Things We Do That Attract The Opposite Gender

The easiest way to communicate your feelings might be through words, but don't underestimate the power of action. The things we do can express a lot more than you might realize. When it comes to attraction between women and men, there are several of these motions that create attraction. Let's look at 10 for each together.

1. Biting Their Lip

If there's one action that women do that feels intentionally sexy and charming, it's biting their lip. Men find this attractive for a number of reasons; it's typically associated with desire, it brings attention to their lips, and it's an expressive action that reveals some sort of suppressed feeling.

2. Winking

A well-timed and well-placed wink can seriously make any man fall head over heels. Winks can be used in a variety of circumstances, from playing a prank to being sarcastic. But when it's done in a flirtatious manner, it gets all the boys' heart rates going up.

3. Putting Their Hair Behind Their Ear

Why this little gesture is so charming, it's hard to put into words. But when a small strand of hair falls out of place, guys find it super attractive when women sweep it up and tuck it behind their ear.

4. Taking Down Their Ponytail

Most men will agree that they find a woman's natural hair to be the most attractive. That's why they love watching hair fall naturally onto her back and shoulders when released from a ponytail. There's just something very alluring about this swift movement.

5. Fluttering Their Eyes

One common thing that women do when flirting is batting or fluttering their eyes. They've got to make use of those beautiful lashes somehow! Because women's eyes are so expressive, it's an easy way to get straight to a man's heart.

6. Wrapping Their Arm Around Yours

That feeling of having your girl wrap her arms around yours is so warm and encouraging. There's a lovely security to this motion that is hard to describe, but it also feels nice knowing she wants to be connected and stay close to you.

7. Flipping Their Hair

That messy, bed-hair look girls get when they toss and flip their hair to the side? Guys love that! The way a woman's hair falls down and frames her face after flipping it just enhances her features even more.

8. Genuinely Laughing

Is there anything better than finding someone who gets your sense of humor? For many guys, this is such an important factor to consider when looking for their special person. It's not just about girls who understand their humor, it's about one who laughs wholeheartedly and genuinely.

9. Eye Contact

Like we said, our eyes are the key to anybody's soul. Men usually fall for women who can maintain eye contact, looking at them purposefully and with meaning. Having beautiful eyes is already a major plus, so use them!

10. Smiling Nice and Wide

Nothing like a beautiful smile to get a man's heart racing. A woman's smile can truly be her greatest asset. It's not just about how it focuses on your lips; it's about giving off that friendly and kind vibe everyone can appreciate.

1. Subtly Flexing Their Arms

We think it's safe to say most women love it when their partner is able to protect them. While this can be shown in a variety of ways, sometimes, the most obvious indication is looking at their strength in a physical sense. When guys subtly flex their arms and show off their muscles and veins, it's incredibly attractive to women who appreciate feeling safe and sound.

2. Putting An Arm Around Your Waist

That feeling of security is so much more important than some people may realize. Here's another instance of it. When guys put their arms around a woman's waist, they love how safe it makes them feel. But it's not just that, it also demonstrates a desire to want to be close which in itself is irresistibly charming.

3. Running Their Hand Through Their Hair

If you want to talk about sexy things guys do that women find attractive, top of the list is when they run their hand through their hair. Even if the action itself is typically associated with feeling frazzled or nervous, there's just an unexplainable charm to it.

4. Ruffling Their Hair

Similar to the previous point, women also love when a man's hair looks tousled or ruffled. Seeing them play with their hair to create that effect is just the cherry on top.

5. Pushing Up Their Sleeves

Showing off their forearms, this seemingly innocent action makes women's hearts go absolutely crazy. There's simply a manliness to it that really captivates a woman's attention and makes them focus on the arms - which is a really attractive part of a man's body for many.

6. Smirking

While too much arrogance is never appreciated, when a man shows off a little bit of showy confidence with a smirk, it can be enticing instead. This type of smile just feels flirtatious and super playful, as if he's trying to get a woman's attention.

7. Raising Their Eyebrow

Another lovable and playful gesture that women appreciate is when a man raises his eyebrow at them. Of course, it's all about the right timing. If you do it while you're arguing, it'll be taken the wrong way, but when it's done in a light-hearted manner, it can feel like he's teasing you in a flirty way.

8. Crossing Their Arms

It's all about the arms when it comes to guys! When men casually cross their arms, it draws the gaze onto that part of the body, reminding women of their strength and ability to protect. It's one way to use your assets to your advantage!

9. Eye Contact

Yes, we listed this as a point men love when women do, but the opposite can also be said. Eye contact is a universal attraction. Looking into someone's eyes is the best way to speak without using words.

10. Smiling Nice and Wide

Last but not least, of course, a lovely smile is another crossover point we can't fail to mention. When we talk about facial features, nothing stands out more than a beautiful smile that lights up your entire face. Women love seeing men at their best, just as the opposite is true too.
