"  Day 8: The Power of &amp;quot;Dat Ass&amp;quot;-Filled Selfies Dear Esquire, I just went for it and posted a picture of DAT ASS on Instagram. I compared it to a photo that was taken by a photographer for a job. Ninety-nine percent of the comments liked the one I took myself. Some comments were, &amp;quot;the one you took makes you look more comfortable and not trying to have the perfect pose,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;good selfie is always better than a glammed-up studio shoot,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;I love the selfie, you are perfect.&amp;quot; According to a couple guys, I have no ass. On a sliding scale of flat to J-Lo, I definitely have zero ass. But for a skinny model, I think I&amp;#039;m doing alright. One guy asked &amp;quot;u single?&amp;quot; Another said &amp;quot;ASS,&amp;quot; and then some guy wrote a paragraph about how I should change careers. So what I&amp;#039;ve learned from posting a picture of my ass on the Internet is that most guys think at-home-casual-selfies are WAY sexier than professional shoots with makeup and model poses. That makes sense. I&amp;#039;d rather a guy text me a picture of his balls than look at skinny male models. Every guy I know that is reading this will now text me a picture of their balls, if I&amp;#039;m lucky.         Last post for @esquiremag. What&amp;#039;s sexier- the photo of me in maxim or the one I just took of my ass?

I think I made him nervous because I just sat down and started talking to him out of nowhere. I&amp;#039;m so good at talking to strangers! He said he noticed his wife&amp;#039;s eyes when he met her. Umm, another guy already said that! It must be an important factor to sexiness. I asked guys on Facebook what they found sexy in their girlfriends. One guy said he he first saw his girlfriend after she was at a Monster Truck Jam, wearing a cutoff t-shirt with nacho cheese dripped down the front. Cheese is now delicious AND sexy. Another guy said he thought he didn&amp;#039;t have a chance in hell with his girlfriend, but then banged the shit out of her that same night. So, playing hard to get is sexy. What we&amp;#039;ve learned today that men in relationships find sexy: eyes, cheese, and hard-to-get-bitches. STETTEN OUT.         For @esquiremag today I talked to a married dude about his wife.

Don&amp;#039;t let that picture fool you, sticking my ass in the air like that is incredibly uncomfortable. I may have done that pose in yoga; I&amp;#039;ll let you know tomorrow. The comments were great, but they made me uncomfortable. Someone even asked my ex if he was mad. He responded with, &amp;quot;Why? I fucked her. You never will!&amp;quot; Good one, ex-boyfriend. Lots of other people said the photo was gorgeous and sexy. Of course it is! I&amp;#039;m in my underwear just waiting for a guy to text me, &amp;quot;u up?&amp;quot; Someone also said he was happy I finally got some meat on my bones. Hey guy, you realize when that transfers into a woman&amp;#039;s brain all she sees is &amp;quot;YOU&amp;#039;RE FAT.&amp;quot; Lots of guys found this picture sexy, so I&amp;#039;m gonna go ahead and say posing seductively is officially sexy.         Hi @esquiremag this is the sexiest pose I&amp;#039;ve ever done.

I asked him what he finds sexiest in women. What he said made me instantly propose marriage to him. It had nothing to do with physical attributes and everything to do with personality. (WHY CAN&amp;#039;T EVERY MAN BE LIKE THIS, WORLD?) He also acknowledged the fact that beauty fades. When your sexiness level goes from ScarJo to Susan Sarandon (still ridiculously sexy for 67), and you&amp;#039;re not drinking babies&amp;#039; blood like Demi Moore to look eternally 21, you need a man in your life to tell you how sexy you are all the time. Guys like Sean will do this, because he appreciates what&amp;#039;s on the inside, and not just the inside of your vagina. What Sean Said (Take Notes, Gentlemen):         I talked to Sean for @esquiremag about what he likes in women.

I asked this guy what he finds sexiest in women. His response was incredible: a woman who reviews fantasy books on YouTube. Like, does that mean he would jerk off to her videos? Probably, right? I don&amp;#039;t know what you men do on the Internet these days. I liked his response. He finds uniqueness sexy. We&amp;#039;ve all got our weird fetishes. For instance, during sex I like guys to talk about their health insurance plans. Nothing better than a successful man.         My @esquiremag video for today: What this guy finds sexy is girls who review fantasy books on YouTube. Totally normal.

Dear Esquire, I asked a guy named Tom (not Cruise) what he finds sexiest in woman. He said eyes. OMG, I have eyes! When he said that, he stared deep into my eyes, and I had a moment of &amp;quot;Let&amp;#039;s go do it in the bathroom,&amp;quot; but that&amp;#039;s nuts! Right?!! I appreciate that he didn&amp;#039;t say tits or ass first. (I wear a 34A bra and could only dream of having J-Lo&amp;#039;s ass.) He had really nice hair and eyes himself. I think people are attracted to each other based on the outcome of their offspring. Tom and I would have gorgeous light-brown-haired, blue-eyed babies. I think he&amp;#039;s the one, and I let him slip away. What&amp;#039;s wrong with me? Sigh.         I asked Tom what he thinks is sexiest in women for @esquiremag. Hi Tom.

Dear Esquire, Last night, I made a Vine of me answering a difficult Jeopardy question while reading a dictionary and wearing a bra. In case you didn&amp;#039;t know, reading the dictionary upside down makes you even smarter. And no, I didn&amp;#039;t pull that episode off of YouTube (yes I did). Not as many guys responded to my Vine as they did the photo of me . Apparently being smart has little to do with being sexy. I had an awesome GPA in high school, and not one boy called me sexy. Maybe the giant raver pants and anti-social demeanor had something to do with it, who knows? I think a woman&amp;#039;s intelligence is the last thing guys look for after a nice ass and tits. Although, one time I sang &amp;quot;The Humpty Dance&amp;quot; at karaoke, and a guy told me my rapping skills really turned him on. I have no idea what that means. Tomorrow I&amp;#039;ll talk to some real guys and see what they think is sexy.    Day 1: Melissa Takes a Photo in Bed Dear Esquire, Yesterday, I posted a photo on Instagram and Twitter of what I perceive to be the least sexiest characteristics of women according to men \u2014 cats, self-help books, sweatpants, zit cream, watching Eat, Pray, Love on my laptop, and I&amp;#039;m actually wearing my retainer but you can&amp;#039;t see it (I seriously still have to wear that thing or my teeth will go back to looking like Amy Winehouse&amp;#039;s). It got 191 likes, which is definitely above average for me. Not one person said it wasn&amp;#039;t sexy. Some dudes even commented &amp;quot;ABSOLUTELY SEXY&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;DEFINITELY SEXY.&amp;quot; Never mind that those guys are playing World of Warcraft in their moms&amp;#039; basements and would fuck Steve Buscemi in a wig. My conclusion \u2014 guys don&amp;#039;t care how many mental illnesses you have, if you&amp;#039;re doing a sexy pose on a bed they&amp;#039;ll still be attracted to you.         Is this sexy y/n? I&amp;#039;m doing a thing for @Esquiremag&amp;#039;s Sexiest Woman Alive all week. P.S. I&amp;#039;m wearing my retainer.
