Just my opinion, but:

Sexy = Drew Barrymore and Liz Hurley

Beauty = Marisa Tomei and Dana Delaney

A perfect example of both is Catherine Zeta Jones, especially in the movie Zorro.

Some would say that beauty and sexy go hand and hand. A lot of women today are very beautiful. I was told a long long time ago, that being sexy and emiting a sexual aura comes naturally from the soul, and from within, that cannot be faked, you either have it or you do not.

I also think that beauty and how one perceives sexy, is in the eye of the beholder. I have a lot of male friends even though i am married, guess what, they all like different things in women.
I do have a flat stomach but huge huge breasts, and i myself hate it, hate it so much, the guys i know and my hubby luv it, i do not. Everyone is an individual, there is no right or wrong way to think about what is beauty or sexy.
I don't know about other women in the fifties, yes i said it, but i work dang hard to keep my shape, and to stay firm, the moment i gain weight, or see flab, i am never eating again. lol

I do think that Kim is a very beautiful and sexy women.

Someone a very long time ago, told me if you have to try and be sexy, give it up because if you have to work at it, your not sexy. Sexy is something women who have it don't have to work at, it comes from their sexual essence.

What do you think?
Sexy and beautiful don't necessarily need to be mutually exclsusive.

My wife is both!

Not so rare. As I already mentioned on this thread, Mrs. Lao is totally that way.

I actually know a few women who are both Sexy and Beautiful. It is not as rare as you may think.

This has been a hoot to read. And, as always, people have their own ideas and perceptions.

It's well-known that Alfred Hitchcock's ideal were slender, cool blondes like Grace Kelly and, of course, Tipi Hedren. Today, he'd be panting after Nicole Kidman.

ever wonder why gossip girl's 2 main characters are s and b?

serena = sexy, sl+
blair = beautiful, !+#h

serena seems to get all the men. they are drawn to her. no matter how nice a girl is, being an s will get her in trouble (think jessica rabbit)

blair has longer, more meaningful relationships that she's manipulated into what she wants, but men seem to gravitate toward her s bff (think kelly taylor vs brenda walsh)

It partly depends on the clothes she wears too.

Sexy = I want to rip his clothes off because he's so hot
Beauty = He's so handsome/beautiful/good-looking that he's someone I want to admire physically, but not necessarily have sex with.
