It’s Friday … you can’t wait till the day is over and the weekend begins … and you might be thinking “This motherf*ckin SBM betta not be tryin to drop no deep knowledge on me today. Don’t this n***a know that it’s Friday”
Well … how about you sit back … and join me on a little flash back.
My desire to go to Business School goes back many years. I bought my first GMAT study book before I graduated undergrad, even though I knew it would be several years until I applied. I’ve damn near had wet dreams about certain schools. Printed brochures have littered my various rooms for years.
Early on in my career, only a few months on the job … I started my search. I was aiming for top 5 programs, although I had no desire to go to Harvard. University of Pennsylvania (Wharton) was the current star in my wet dreams. An Ivy League only 2 hours from DC, in the oh-so-fun city of Philly … what more could a young SBM want?
So … I’m at the information session. I came solo because no one shares my immense desire for business school. I’m sitting at the end of the aisle, early for once in my life (those who know me well know I embody the term “Colored People Time”. I might be late to my own funeral), with a notebook I stole from work in my hand, and just salivating at the Wharton logo being projected on the screen. The speaker has started on the greatness of their program, and I am there … listening … in awe.
I drop my pen …
I bend over to pick it up, and as I’m coming up … I see it. I see something that completely robbed the speaker of my attention. Something that completely emptied my head of B-school and Ivy Leagues. Something that really isn’t of significant … but for me … well, it does something for me.
I saw … a foot … perfectly manicured with a dark and deep nail polish … and the most seductive set of open toed shoes. And to top it off … she was sitting one leg over the other, moving her toes through the air … without a care, chilling right above her equally desirable partner in crime.
Yeah … Wharton who?
For the next 15 minutes, I can’t think of anything but her in nothing but those high heels, butt naked and bent over the kitchen counter out on a nice date with me.
I followed that foot up to. There were connected to OK legs, a subpar body, and an average face. But it really didn’t matter. It was that 20% our of the relationship 80/20 rule (I know you say “Tyler Perry’s ‘Why Did I Get Married’” … you black aint ya?) that had me mesmerized.
I didn’t care that she was only average in looks. I didn’t care that she had Wharton ambitions (something I usually give major points for). I didn’t even really desire anything significant with this girl … but at that moment … without her even knowing it, she was doing it for me.
So … you might be thinking that I have a foot fetish. You might be thinking “SBM you iz a nasty sumbitch”. Well … F* you your mistaken. It just so happens that open toed shoes and pretty toes are … one of those “thangs”.
Yeah … I know everyone has a list of things that just … well … do it for them. This ain’t new … remember my quirks?
Sexy feet, Great Dreadlocks, sex ass glasses, the list goes on.
So … thanks for reliving that moment of … I don’t know what you want to call it … with me. But I know I’m not alone on this one.
Have you ever been extremely turned on and attracted to someone temporarily over something not special? Do you have a weakness that has caused you strife in your life? Is there something that the worst, stealing from you on the regular, got bad head, can’t go out nowhere, always broke, smacked your momma, no good mother f** … but when he/she does “that thing” … it all goes away? Go ahead and share … it’s Friday!
- SBM aka I love dreads aka Pretty Toes Rule aka “Leave them glasses on girl”





Newbie!! But I do enjoy a manicured toe for myself, I love 4 them 2 look sexy, and the fact that men think they r so seductive is a plus.
Damn. Ummm (blushing)… yeah. I love this site. That’s all I have to say, lol.
Dang…had you looked up and seen dreadlocks it would be all over for you…
I would say that you have a foot and shoe fetish…nothing nastee or just straight up kinky…but enough to make you feel some type away when you see a nice pair.
For me its a man's swag…I'm talking about his walk…shoulders back, head held high, that air of confidence…match that with a nice smile and I am done!
Yeah … I know in truth that I have a mild fetish. But I'm not sucking toes and asking girls to walk on my back or anything … yet.
I like a nice smooth pair of legs.
A nice casual free flowing dress. Just something about the woman being free underneath. And that thin material being the only thing from me touching her soft skin.
Wooooowwwwwwwww.
And the ability to firmly but gently bend her over something and go to work.
…well dayum…just…dayum
Glasses. He can be light skin, dark skin…any skin as long as he has on glasses…a nice haircut and smooth skin…
A little cologne on his neck and you CANNOT hold me responsible…
I don't know why…but i love seein a guy in some basketball shorts, a wife beater, some white socks, and flip flops (the socks with the flip flops r a must…i can't stand flip flops on there own on guys) LOL….I also LOVE LOVE LOVE a muscular back…nothing gets me going faster…just seein the way a shirt falls on a man's back is uuuuber sexy and just screams "I'm a protector"…ok let me stop….thanks for gettin me all excited this early in the morning SBM…
aaaaaahhhh-men, aaaaahhh-men, aaaaAAAAAAAaaaaauuuhhh-meeeennn!!!
Well you would have changed this thinking of the way a shirt falls on a man's back if you'da been in the store with me and my husband yesterday…this dude had keloids all over his big thick neck-one was literally sittin on his shoulder, I was like a 5 year old…I couldn't stop starin! Then this ninja had his back facin me and it looked like he had a gang of newborns under his shirt…I. Stood. Frozen. In. Utter. Disbelief!!!! Never will I look at a neck, back, or fly gear the same way again!
I'm also co-signing on the fresh haircut! My husband gets it every saturday after a fresh cut and a shower!!!
i like pretty skin on a guy, looks good in a suit, and that swagger has me going!
i saw this guy who looked like a baby rick ross cause he was smaller and cuter and i actually was attracted to him cause he had mad swag and usually i'm not one for chunky/fat guys(he definitely had a gut)
lets see. a woman who can dress conversatively yet sexy.
i love glasses. not coke bottles though. they have to be sexy glasses.
nice calf muscles in some heels. yeah. that too.
fresh arched eyebrows do it for me too.
I do want to let it be known that the picture of the above foot is not an accurate reproduction of the foot that I fell in love with … but the closest I could come up with.
LMAOOO @ Everyone gettin RANDY over this post!
For me? Hmm
1) Accents – Southern, West Coast, International. You start talkin and I hear it and all I think of is me starring as James Bond or Capt. Kirk ready to plow an extraterestial broad! lol
2) Chicks who can "dress hood" and still be classy. Give me the lip gloss, earrings, jeans, kicks, wifebeater any day of ther week. Especially with a hint of class/bourgeoisness and I swoon!
MISC: Nice hair (long short curly straight) if you freak it right, Ill freak you right, long legs, in shape bodies, flexibility, and all that good stuf!
Arms and shoulders….lawdjesushavemercyonme! MM MM MMMM! You can have a bootydo (as in your stomach sticks out more than your booty do) but you have some nicely defined shoulders that leads to some shhexhcy arms and you can call it a wrap! WHAT! Dude…wear a cut off or sleeveless shirt around me and you might as well be talking to a wall cuz I ain’t payin nan attention to the words that are coming outcha mouf…yeah it’s that serious.
oh and thanks for this SBM..cuz dc+rain+495= Stupid People and this just lightened my mood 100%
That was a great recollection, SBM.. I enjoyed reading it.
A fresh haircut does it for me.
co-sign ain't nothing like it!
Let's see….
glasses always and forever…the rectangular joints.
the conservative business suit…just looks like there's a tigress under that suit.
nice legs…especially calves
jet black hair….yes sir.
wearing something that shows the shoulders….my eyes are drawn to it.
Can I just say that the chick in the picture above needs to get some shoes that fit her? Everyone knows I love a woman in heels I wrote a blog about it. http://thebookofjackson.blogspot.com/2009/05/high-heels-freestyle-random-rant.html The famous quote, “The heel, high heel, it signifies; greatness, dedication, discipline, balance, grace, poise and attention to detail. ” was from there.
Anyway, a few of my favorite things: backs, shoulders, long legs, the color yellow, chicks in wife beaters and gym shorts, straight hair before the shower/curly after, fiesty women, glasses (cot dayum), lip gloss (oh em gee! a brother who don’t like lip gloss, i don’t even think that negro like fried chicken), i like female athletes (i’ll eff the whole team, baby i’m a groupie)….
oh I almost forgot, for slims from the DMV: I love jet black hair, a chick with some jordan retros or some new balances, the lil bebe tee shirt, or the sandals with the straps that goes up her leg…. WHAT?! I will be walking on water to get that.
Anyway, happy Friday!
I agree- the toes shouldn't be peeping over the top. When the heel is super high, sometimes u gotta get them a little big in order to avoid this .
The above post made me blush. Partly because it truly confirms that men do this SO many times when we're not looking or we don't notice. It makes us feel soft and pink and whatnot. Well, unless it's Flava Flav…then it's gross no matter how you spin it.
I love eyeglasses too, actually, on guys. Those cool narrower frames/lenses…the black ones. *melt* Especially if he's cute already? Those glasses make me seem more business like…it does me in.
A good walk, too. I can be walking behind a guy and never see his face, but instantly fall in love with him because of his swaggerlicious walk. And yes, I've been disappointment a couple times when I see the front view. lol Ah well, I can just daydream about the good part.
I love a great neck on a man. woooo! Like a thick neck that leads to a nice muscular back and I am seriously in love. And make sure you wipe your neck down in the shower, its a deal breaker if I see big ass ring around your collar, hygiene people. ick!
SBM, you have me wanting to get a pedicure after work today, thanks for the inspiration!
No problem. If more women got pedicures … the world would be a better place.
…lets see…yea I love the feet and shoe thing I just cant get enuff-heels-pumps or even them ballerina shoes
love womens lips that lip gloss is nuts esp on black women dammmmm!!!!
love the new shiny spandex thats out-
leather knee high boots-
a women dressed classy that acts raunchy
cant go wrong with boyshorts and a tight shirt
damn I could be here with this one for daaaaays!!!!!
Tall men do it for me. Oh and men you ride motorcycles, and well, you know I have a long list.
Well as I sit here & get ALL hot & bothered(thank u SBM)…I love a man that is Tall OMG like when I hug you I hug your belt buckle tall & broad(srry skinny dudes you get no play over here.)…then I nice fitted over the eyes (turning me on just thinkin about it)…Also Swag is a must. Lastly I have a thing for nice smooth hands.
I cannot be held Accountable for my Actions when I see any of these…so just…Lay There & Take It Cuz Trust Im Prob Givin It!!!…LOL
I recently saw Sean Paul performing "So Fine" and I was immediately taken. Like, when did SP become so dang sexy?! I don't like "high yellas" and I certainly don't like cornrows. I became obsessed with the song and had to hear it every day.
The other day I saw him again. The moment had passed. He's not so sexy anymore.
That same thing happened with me and Brooke Valentine with that Girl Fight video. I mean … she wasn't the most gorgeous chic in the world, but something about her … just did it for me.
Love this site…. must admit I'm a sucka for a mustache and a goatee
an ass I can grab when the moment is right (like a running back)
a walk that says "Yes, I am the sh*t"
juicey thick lips…
clean ride…
deep voice with enough bass that when he says "baby turn over" no
questions asked!!

There is nothing like a strong black man with broad shoulders who can hang a suit . Doesn't matter if he purchased it at JC Penny or has a custom fit but please stay away from the loud colors and Steve Harvey joints.
Late to comment on this post (can't keep up w y'all errr day!), but I'll so-sign w @streetz errr uhhh yea some of you folks need to BREEVE lol! I feel the heat rising w each comment…but to add my two cents, yea ummm a nice. firm back and great biceps make me a lil woozy and I love a guy w nice legs, especially if he has strong calves to show off when he's wearing shorts (WINNER!), a fresh cut is also very, very nice! Just be in great shape and have a nice face and I think I'll probably just about melt….Oh, but please…pretty, pretty please have a sense of style…AND yea, I'm good!!
I love your site!
Back in my college days, I was in the cafe and I saw it from across the room. There was this….arm that turned me on. Yes arm lol (I'm a simple gal). It had a moderate tattoo on the bicep and it was just so strong looking and brown. Yea I looked at the face and it was a guy I dated. I never paid attn to his arms before.
Thank you!! I kinda needed this!! I have dreadlocs down to the middle of my back which I take meticulous care of, and I wear my naughty librarian glasses [when I'm out of contacts]. It was a tough finals season; it's nice to be told someone values my assests…
