14. Good Posture

Surprisingly, having good posture is something that many women claim to find sexy in a man. It's likely because it's tied with confidence - a man who stands tall and approachable is a lot more enticing than a man who's hunched over and slouching.

Is intelligence sexy? Most women will say yes, definitely!

20. Well-Groomed Facial Hair

Cleanliness and good hygiene are incredibly important, which is why a man who has well-groomed facial hair comes off as so attractive. For women who love facial hair on a man, it's likely because it gives off a rugged, masculine appeal. But even then, it's crucial that it's kept clean and tidy, or else it can quickly become an unattractive feature rather than a sexy one.
