A good number of women actually take a liking to an awkward male who isn’t afraid to be himself and find a little nerdiness very attractive.

For many women, turn-ons aren’t just about a man’s looks, independence and sense of humor–there are some unpredictable things that turn women on as well. So what are some of those other qualities that turn women on? Find out here.

1. The color red

Men garbed in red are proven to attract more attention from women because the color is an attention getter. The color red is also viewed as a dominant color that indicates power and masculinity, and prolonged viewing of the color causes the female body to increase adrenaline secretion and raise blood pressure.

2. Sweat and body odor

Contrary to popular belief, not all women like the smell of a guy covered in cologne. Some women like the natural smell of a man, just the way he is. Studies show that Androstadienone, a chemical compound found in male sweat, increases blood pressure, boosts hormone levels and raises the rate of breathing in women (Don’t abandon showers though!)

3.  A deep voice

A deep, manly voice is another turn-on for women. A low voice is perceived as more dominant and strongly tied to success in finding a mate.

4. Your hands

The state of your hands says a lot about your general cleanliness and hygiene. Many women also feel that the way a man’s hands move directly translates to his sexual prowess. You might even consider having a manicure every once in awhile.

5.  Asking a woman for help

Most women like it more when a man knows how to ask for help from a woman and knows when to ask for help instead of trying on his own and failing as a result.

6. Being “uncool”

A good number of women actually take a liking to an awkward male who isn’t afraid to be himself and find a little nerdiness very attractive.

7. Your imperfections

Believe it or not, a great deal of women are actually attracted to scars, blemishes and birthmarks on a guys body, but more so to the stories behind them.

8.  Your handwriting

Women love handwritten notes because they show effort on a man’s part beyond sending a simple text message. Because they are so rare these days, handwritten love notes are literally something they’ll treasure.

9. Your sensitive side

While women are not looking for some needy man who wants to talk about his emotions constantly, one of the biggest female turn ons is having an emotionally well-balanced man who is not afraid to show his emotions from time to time.

10. Being good with kids

A man holding a baby is beautiful and a turn on to most women! Women are not necessarily picturing you as the father of their children, but it is endearing to see a guy’s nurturing side.
