Quote: I see Mojo as a Lynda Carter/Wonder Woman type.
I am not nearly as attractive as Lynda Carter. I am that type, but blonde.
Quote: As for MM, I had her pictured as 5'8" tall, sandy brown hair - with bangs, long waisted with large breasts, and probably big feet. I can see her draped in a well worn, but much loved arm chair, reading a book. I think her face would be attractive and her intelligence would show in her face.
I am 5'9". I have suburban mom frosted blonde hair which I wear up in a high ponytail most of the time. I wear bangs about 50% of the time, but I don't have any now because I like my forehead clear when I'm working out. I am very long waisted and I have large breasts, but not large relative to my body. I'm right around 40/30/40. My feet are about average for someone my height. I wear a size 9 or 10. IMO my best feature is my shoulders. I can frequently be found draped in some unladylike fashion on a chair or sofa reading. I don't know how attractive my face is and it almost certainly doesn't look intelligent in repose because I've been told that I frequently look spaced-out and people often seem surprised when I say something intelligent.
When I was in college, I once overheard 2 guys talking about me as I walked across a room. One was asking the other if he knew me and implying that he thought I was "hot". The other guy who lived down the hall from me said "Yeah, she's kind of hot, but she doesn't look as good close-up.". Not kind, but probably true. "Hot" is probably the adjective most frequently used by men who've been attracted to me. Two guys who had a crush on me the summer I was at my "hottest", 1987, actually called me "Hot Jenny" all the time. On the other hand, my H and one other guy I dated independently decided that "Bunny" was the best term of endearment to use for me and another boyfriend chose "Fluff".

51 yrs old, 6'2" 185lbs (athletic?), brown and gray hair (is this salt and pepper?)...sometimes wear glasses for reading/driving at night (passed DMV vision test in April w/o glasses)
I'm 46 with red hair of various shades, depending on my mood when I do it. Sometimes a dark, smoky auburn, other times a much brighter hue. Mischevious eyes that smile brightly. Hazel in color. I'm taller than most of the gals here, 5'10." I am proportioned in such a way that the carnival folks are always misguessing my weight and I take home the stuffed animal almost every time. Have worn glasses since I was a child and consider them to be an essential piece of jewelry. Besides, I can't see without the darn things. A quick laugh, a wry comment, a warped and twisted sense of humor.
Antler, Haven't I just seen you riding in Athens? Cool dude. Lovely family. Just the one small problem to solve...
honeypot, As your long distance secret admirer I have my mind's-eye view of you and it's nothing like the reality but I'm sticking with it anyway. I see you as a gorgeous golden brown African American with a beautiful white smile, deep brown eyes and a lovely round tummy!!! SD xx
Mojo I see as the Women's lib character on the Rug Rats. Strong and opinionated - I like that.
hairdog I always see as Woody Allen.
Tim I always saw as a Canadian lumberjack with a checked shirt.
Scott I always think of as Mr Spock (rather than Kirk or Picard).
CeMar I always imagine as the basketball coach for the worst school in the country - he gets all the kids working as a team and they win the league with a little help from one of the kids' dog who runs on and scores in the last second.
eyesopened is definitely Farah Fawcett-Majors in her heyday. If she is an LDW then I want one like her!
SD - Kind of smaller and thinner than people imagine but not at all delicate. www.hdenham.f9.co.uk/demolition.jpg - strong arm picture specially for Mojo.
Very nice. BTW I like all kind of arm muscles, anything from Keith Richards wirey to out-of-shape ex-football player padded. A lack of arm muscles is really the only thing that would immediately make me reject a man purely on appearance. I don't care about height, weight, hair or even a lack of muscle elsewhere. I guess I would be LD in a world of flaccid-armed men.

Imagine a cross between Danny Devito and Andy Garcia. I used to be 60/40 Devito/Garcia, but since I lost 60 lb in the past year, the percentages have flipped.
While you are dealing with the cognitive dissonance presented by the above visual juxtaposition, I will tell you that we have sold our current house, and our new house is almost complete. We will move in in 3 wks. It is large enough to accomodate our family of four, as well as my dear elderly mother-in-law. Plus, it has a 1st floor master suite so Granny has her own living space and never has to climb the stairs . Here is the URL of an exterior photo I took about a month ago:
I'm 5'4", long darkish brown hair, hazel eyes. No grey yet, I've got some indian in there too. A little pudgy round the middle (working on that!)
House, originally 70's Finnish functional style but now white brick and no more flat roof. (never figured out why Finns build houses with flat roofs!!) 5 b'rooms, 4300sqft.
By the way, all this talk about your beautiful homes is making me homesick. I like my house, but there's something about American homes...
