I think they are one in the same, except, we use words to describe various ranges within this emotion. And with that said, I don't think you can get any sexier and sensual than this: (this is dedicated to all you single sexy CD ladies)

Yes, I also believe SEXY is the physical and mental state of mind.

Sensual is the arousing OR exciting of the senses...the erotic way you touch or kiss someone; the act of licking whip cream, chocolate, etc off their naked body; the smell of their cologne that makes your body tingle all over; massages
I couldn't have said it better... You definitely distracted me.

Okay, guys. Sorry, I deserted my thread for a while!

Anyways, here's my brief thoughts. I'm pertaining sexy and sensual to people (although it definitely can stand for different things).

To me, sexy is more overt, more in-your-face. It isn't necessarily bad, but it's just a more obvious form of sexuality. The message is quite clear. Sexy is more "here I am, come and get me."

Sensual is more suggestive and - in my definition - seductive. It merely hints at what may come, but there's still an aura of mystery around it. Sensual is more "I'm drawing you into me."

Hmm I don't know if any of that makes sense. It does in my brain, but my brain's obviously different from the CD relationship forum lol.

Sexy might be more physical, visual, titillates the senses. Sensual involved the mind, imagination, teases the senses instead of feeding the senses.

what's the difference? I see none--the words are synonymous to me.

To me Sensual is an exciting off the senses, something that will make you take notice. Sexy is well sex with a Y attached to the end.

Yes, I was wondering where the op went lol...anyhow, makes sense..

I can be somewhere in the presence of several "sexy" women...who, as you said, Physically radiate their attractiveness... But, a woman who is sensual, is a rarer presence...

Yes, outwardly, she is sexy.. but, it goes deeper then just what is seen upon first glance.. It is..as you said, that Aura which she possesses..That "wow, i don't know what it is about her..but boy am i attracted to it/by it"

She is the attractive presence which isn't all over the place..She is a calmer/cooler type of personality...yet, just radiates something more attractive then the other, more flirty, or self consumed women in the room..She is the one female in the building who will completely catch my attention from anywhere..or the second she passes in front of me..

My first true love was like this.. When we would see one another, before we started seeing one another, she was more reserved yet warm on approach.. Yet, i could tell that alot more lie below that cool or somewhat shy exterior..and it drove me crazy...lol

Once we started seeing each other, that is when the more sensual side of her nature would come out.. The rest, is history..and an intense connection between two people who knew what each possessed below the surface..without speaking of it

I guess I voted sexy because sensual also makes me think of oils and trying to hard to be sexy through overtly sexual means pertaining to the sexual act.

I think a guy that can make me laugh is a "sexy" thing. But not creepy sensual.


Sexy is the complexity of the layers of the person coming at you in one big ray of awesome that just makes you want to scream KISS ME NOW YOU FOOL. ☺

I guess we all have our own ideas on this, guess we are all right.

Sexy to me is ys the visual aspect of a perosn, the physical, without the physical, you cannot have sexy. Sexy you could say is someone being very self confident. Sexy is tending to arouse a sexual desire or a interest by your looks. Sexy is what is attracted to you, and physical being. Sexy is more out there, and yes in your face. Sexy is a tease to ones senses. Sexy could be the way one dresses, a perfume or a cologne.Sexy is having a charisma sexy is your playful side, sexy is how one sees you thru there eyes, your physical side.

Sensual is suggesting sexuality. Sensual refers to something that appeals to your mental and spiritual aspect of persuing pleasure, romance, and hot sex. Sensual is about enticing someone special and making them in return desire you. Sensual is setting a ambience and a mood thru you being sensual in what ever way you see fit. While being sensual, you can arouse that speical person's interest in sex.

Some may say you cannot have one without the other, and that too can be right.
