kevinm Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 So, just as above... Are glasses sexy or not? I realize this is a subjective question. For me, I love it when a girl wears glasses... particularly when she doesn't wear them all the time. The whole brainy/geek/book-worm thing is hot! I do not however, find glasses sexy as far as women who wear them as an accessory. In other words, she has to actually need to wear them. What do you guys think? -Kevin Link to comment
JeckyllNHyde Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I'm interested in reading other guys opinions too. (Even though all that matters is my SO's, but still.) I don't feel as pretty with glasses on to be honest. JUst feel a bit plain, dunno why. There's days when I do feel sexy with them though, very rare. Link to comment
Gratsy Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I absolutely adore glasses on men. But, the thing is that guys used to hate glasses until every girl started wearing those thick rimmed ones that are in fashion now. I think usually tools wear those so I'm not attracted to men who wear those, and the women, I find to be obnoxious wanna-be punk little hipsters. My glasses are birth control glasses which is why I absolutely hate wearing them except when I'm trying to save a couple of bucks. This is because I can't get lasik and my glasses are so thick you can use them as a hubble telescope replacement. Sarah Palin glasses are hot. I majored in Russian Literature or Computer Science glasses are hot. Link to comment
Jpo Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 On women, YES. Those sexy black rimmed glasses turn me on big time. I don't necessarily like when they wear them all the time, but when the switch it up or only wear them when they relaxing at home, it is really hot to me. It makes me want to do terrible things to them. XD Link to comment

Men never used to say this until the black rimmed glasses became really popular. A girl puts them on and its supposed to automatically mean she has a brain, or something. I mean, a lot of times men are completely unaware of the fact that their tastes are so insanely influenced by popularity. I've never, for instance, had a man interested in me unless he thought his friend was. Link to comment
Symbolic Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I don't like glasses on women at all. Link to comment
JeckyllNHyde Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 LOL. I wear the black ones. Thank god for the person who invented the style. I was just looking at some pics of people at a club/party on Facebook, and honestly I don't think I could hit a club in glasses. I just feel - like I said - unpretty for some reason. But thanks to those glasses lol- they look kind of sexy. Link to comment

I've never, for instance, had a man interested in me unless he thought his friend was. As far as I remember, I always liked it. But really, who cares? They are popular now, so you're good. It is not like glasses are the only fashion that changes with time. Btw, they usually aren't what attracts me to a girl. Initially, I would be more attracted to women without glasses (not always, some girls just look really good with them). But, once I know them and I am already attracted to them, it really turns me on when they wear them occasionally. Link to comment
iLiveWithMyMom Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Glasses work on some people. Other people, not so much. I think the wider your face is, the worse glasses look on you. REALLY depends on the face. Link to comment
Gratsy Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Well, I wish I could have cute glasses but my glasses make my eyes look too small and it emphasizes my less appealing factors like my nose and my crazy hair. When I dn't have glasses on, I get hit on a lot more by more attractive men. Link to comment
Jpo Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 ^^^ Why wear them? Just wear contacts. Link to comment
iLiveWithMyMom Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Contacts are a pain in the rear. lol. Link to comment
Jpo Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Contacts are a pain in the rear. lol. I think they are easier than dealing with glasses that constantly get dirty, you can scratch up, or lose. Takes 5 seconds to get them in and then you don't even know they are there. (Except on a few occasions and it hurt like a ****^! XD) Link to comment

I used to understand why people choose glasses>contacts till I tried it myself. My glasses kept getting greasy/dirty due to my eyelashes brushing against them or skin (sometimes). (I swear I'm not gross and DO shower lol). Contacts are way better and the disposable ones are cheap. Too bad I need eye drops to lubricate my eyes though every few hrs. But ehh.. guys with glasses look cute too. I'm now ashamed to admit it but i like guys with dark rimmed ones too. The ones with no rim or a thin metal rim just don't do it for me. Link to comment
Jpo Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Contacts are way better and the disposable ones are cheap. Too bad I need eye drops to lubricate my eyes though every few hrs. Did you just start wearing contacts? I used to have to do that for the first month or so, but never now. Your eyes should adjust and actually start producing more tears to keep your eyes from drying out. I have the same problem with greasy glasses. My eye lashes are super long, like weird long, especially for a guy lol. I don't take showers though. (I have actually on a few occasions had a women I didn't know approach me and tell me that my eye lashes were long. I'm not sure if it is a compliment or not, so it was one of those awkward, "okay..." moments.) Link to comment
JeckyllNHyde Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Hahah, I'll never get some guys and their fascination with avoiding hygene. Actually, I've been wearing contacts for 5 yrs now, and ignored the fact that my eyes would get dry. I figured they would re lubricate themselves.. Stupid me. I developed an eye irritation due to it lately and maybe I'll have to keep using the drops. Oh well. I'm going to get it checked in a few days. My lashes are also super long lol! Haven't seen a dude with super long lashes though. Link to comment
Jpo Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Yeah, the only good thing about them is I can make them look really full with mascara. I'm joking. I don't even know what that means. Link to comment
Organs Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 With the many brands, styles, sizes, and shapes of glasses, I refuse to believe that there isn't a pair that would look good on anyone. I love how they look on women. From nerd/goth girls going for a gaudy-but-somehow-hot trashy look to distinguished women like Tina Fey. And from the '80s cartoon, I always thought Baroness from G.I. Joe always looked hot in a sort of dominant way Link to comment
ay0_x Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I'm meant to wear reading glasses but they hurt my nose/make me feel dizzy. I don't think everyone can pull off glasses @ all. Link to comment
Tigerfan Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Since I am an eye doctor, I'll say yes, glasses look great on everybody! Link to comment
Raistlin Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 The glasses look good on certain men or women, but I, personally, tend to get A LOT of compliments when I don't wear my glasses, whereas I'm looked over when I wear them. Link to comment
iLiveWithMyMom Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Since I am an eye doctor, I'll say yes, glasses look great on everybody! Don't you guys make more money on contacts anyway? lol. Link to comment
furious Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I like the shock factor that comes along when you see a pretty girl with glasses, and she takes her glasses off and she's even prettier and her eyes are piercing you. I love that. Other than that though, I'm indifferent to glasses. I'm a little worried though. I've been thinking about getting some soon as my nearsightedness has been bothering me a bit. I'm not sure how I'd look in them. Link to comment
