Can Dorkiness = Sexy?

Recently- on numerous occasions I have had quite a few people call me a dork! First I thought- I haven't been called a dork since elementary school! No wait- I've never been called a dork! So what gives? I admit at first I was offended! Then I started thinking about it and realized- why yes I am a huge dork! Then I thought- is that really such a bad quality? So I've embraced my inner dork- yes I state with pride I am a dork!That's just me!


I've never been one that I think people consider sexy- maybe due to the dorkiness factor. But I can't change who I am and I don't want to change who I am. I am comfortable in my own skin. That lead me to think- well that is a quality I find very sexy in a man! Confident, comfortable in their own skin, loves humor and able to laugh at themselves. So if I find those qualities sexy in a man- who's to say men wouldn't find those qualities sexy in a woman? Which leads me to the question- can dorkiness be sexy?


So- my dorky qualities. I love to laugh and make others laugh. Not to say I can't be serious when the situation calls for it- but whenever possible- I like to crack jokes and amuse others. Hell- I think I crack myself up more than I do others! Now- I'm neither confirming nor denying this- but part of my morning routine may consist of private lip syncing concerts, with a hairbrush as a mic and a bed as a stage. It may include songs such as: Bohemian Rhapsody, Margaritaville, numerous horrible 80s songs and lots of showtunes. Also- I may salsa dance down the hall in the morning to get my coffee to the ongoing soundtrack in my head. What can I say? I have a LOT of energy and crack myself up.


I can quote every line from Monty Python and the Holy Grail and find it more hilarious each time I watch it. I still love to watch Sesame Street and know all the songs and know all the character's names. I still enjoy coloring in color books! I giggle like a little girl when I'm nervous. I blush at the drop of a hat. When I get flustered or nervous I talk really fast and stutter and you can't understand a word that comes out of my mouth. I know I'm no bombshell so to break the ice sometimes I completely overact the sexiness just to get a laugh. I write lists nonstop. I can't stand my food to touch- I literally have a panic attack!


I'm still very naive when it comes to a lot of things. I am bubbly and happy and see the positive in everything. I have the worst memory in the world and am forever having ditzy blonde moments even though I'm not blonde! My memory is so bad I don't even remember where the hell I was going with this point! So I'll just end with this- can dorkiness be sexy?
