A random poll for women only.

[Moesha]

I'm with Edwina's Secretary on this, and not just because of the armpits. (Although that is a very good point.) I like clothes. I like to see people in clothes. Sometimes, the more clothes there are, the better it is!

[Laura's Babies]

BIG NO here! If you think you are that hot without a shirt, save that "treat" for your wife only.. Guys, pot bellies do NOT look good so wear a shirt and keep it buttoned up! Love handles are for the wife only! The rest of us don't care to see that either. (I agree about the arm pits too)

[CountryWolf07]

Well.. My boyfriend is good looking but.. he definitely does not have a 6-pack.. he is on the chubby side, but I don't care, I love him for who he is, not on how he looks without a shirt on, BUT he is one of those guys who will not take a shirt off in public, so... I voted for other.

I guess I can say yes to ANY guy who is confident about his looks.. but NO to any guy who is not confident?

[jenluckenbach]

I totally agree about sleeveless shirts....YUK!

BTW, I did not add "OTHER" as an option because I knew (or assumed) I'd end up with a multitude of answers saying "It depends on the guy's looks". Of course it does! But I wanted a generalized answer because what looks good to one person does not look good to another.

Thanks for all the votes!

I voted no- as there will be 5% or less who will look sexy and 95% or more who don't. And Jen, you didn't allow me to vote 5% yes

SHIRT ON. Shirtless is classless. I hear the excuse that it's too warm when they're working outdoors. I care not. Women work outdoors and we don't have the luxury of removing our tops. Also, when I was giving online dating a try, I can't tell you how many men posed for pix w/their shirts off and 99% of them really needed to keep them on. Even if a guy has the body, he should save the viewing for his SO when they're alone. To me, it's the height of arrogance to walk around shirtless. I repeat, shirtless is classless.

Boyfriend..shirt off! Other than that, I don't care! But in general, I'd say clothed.

[pitc9]

I'd have to say keep the shirtless look for the hot tan guys that get paid for looking as hot as they are!

[shais_mom]

my neighbor's son when he comes over to their house - is almost ALWAYS shirtless. He doesn't have a bad body but I almost don't recognize him with a shirt ON!
My OTHER neighbor is over 50 and isn't in too bad of shape for his age but is ALWAYS out without a shirt on and what the rest of us neighbors call his Daisy Dukes. His pockets are longer than the shorts!!!

[Husky_mom]

Well, since you said the "average" guy, not a model type guy I had to vote no. I do not want to see a chubby guy, or a super skinny, boney guy without his shirt on, thank you.

The right person, sure - shirtless is good. The average person - no thanks!

LOL... I´m soooo with you guys... I´m not into the lean skinny model 6 pack type though... more into the a lil more musclier still a well marked bod...especially a nice wide back and round shoulders and very very manly biceps and arms...*drools* LOL...

one thing I don´t want to see either.. unless I wanna go blind.. is the guy that thinks he´s hot... but he´s just turning onto a werewolf.... ewww.. hairy back... sorry but put on a shirt !!!...

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

With T-shirt or shirt, with sleeves

[NoahsMommy]

My OTHER neighbor is over 50 and isn't in too bad of shape for his age but is ALWAYS out without a shirt on and what the rest of us neighbors call his Daisy Dukes. His pockets are longer than the shorts!!!

That is soooo gross, it gave me goosebumps!!!! Ewwwwww!!!!!!

I'd better find you some REALLY strong sunglasses to wear when you're anywhere NEAR his house. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!

[moosmom]

This whole thread reminds me of the "Man Groomer" we sell at Bed, Bath and Beyond. The packaging has some hair dude using the tool and I gotta tell ya, it's real TURN OFF!!!

However, give me a guy with a shaved head and I'm a drooling fool!!!

[BitsyNaceyDog]

Around water, like the beach, boating, water park, etc. I don't care if they're shirtless regardless of their body type. Walking down the street I'd prefer them to have a shirt on even if they have a models body. It doesn't bother me if they're shirtless, I'd just prefer they be fully clothed.

[Ginger's Mom]

I like clothes. I like to see people in clothes. Sometimes, the more clothes there are, the better it is!

Haha, this reminded me of something that happened when I was in my late teens/early twenties, I saw a guy I knew who was an average looking guy (not flabby, not super skinny) in a suit, and absolutely went crazy over him (it gave his shoulders a great look!). My sister teased me for weeks about going to a strip club and yelling for them to put clothes on rather than take it off.
