Why I think steampunk girls are hot!

Got to love cosplay girls. There is something about their creativity and geekyness that is extremely attractive. Not sure if it’s the costumes, the fact they look like a flesh and blood personification of geeky media or that I have never had a bad time at a costume party. In any case a woman in costume will always turn my head. Now of all of these groups of sexy geeky girlies steampunk girls in my mind are the hottest.

Cultured. I really have a hard time envisioning a “dumb ditzy blond” woman in a corset and goggles. “Kick your ass in intellectual debate blond” yes but not ditzy. Just the act of wearing clothing that is 60+ years out of style suggests that they are not a slave to popular culture. I have always associated steampunk with books. and books with intelligence. It conjures up visions of her reading a book in a high backed winged chair next to the fire. This fashion also suggests a spine! I have always been attracted to powerful women. And though the era they are representing is famous for the total lack of gender equality the personas they assume are almost always a woman with a strong sense of self. (mmmmmeeoooow!)

Gadgets, goggles and gears!! I don’t even care if they actually work! Those low tech accessories are just fun. Let’s face it a woman slinging a custom painted NERF maverick looks hot even if it only shoots foam rubber.

Now let’s discuss the corset and (and sometimes )cleavage. I save this for later in the post because I wanted to be clear that I am a man who appreciates all parts of a woman and not just the fleshy attributes. With that said corsets and cleavage are always a win. It’s not so much the curves the corset accentuates but the confidence and attitude that come with it. (wait wasn’t this paragraph supposed to be shallow ??) The women I know all report they feel sexier while wearing a corset. How they feel certainly reflects how you act! Agreed cleavage is a bit of a rarity when it comes to Edwardian and victorian clothing in a historic sense. But costuming on the other hand 🙂 need I say more?

So now I will raise the periscope just from the gutters of my male mind. (don’t worry I will put it back later) one word “Geek”. Often women talk about how they want a man they can relate too. How they just love talking to some hot guy for hours. And the fact she can tal to him for hours makes an average guy hot. This may be a surprise but guys like that sort of thing too (at least the ones with brains) and a geeky girl almost insures that a conversation about the latest comic, RPG game or what Joss wheeton is up too. (please more firefly) A steampunk outfit is almost a signal beacon for a good conversation.

How do you catch a steampunk clad girl??? Start with a top hat and goggles and I will let you figure out the rest from there. If your lucky I might get around to publishing a how too book by Alexander Townsend.

We should have a costume contest or something
