Attractiveness Tip / Quip

I've gotten Sheena to admit that she thinks my crackly, post-flu voice is "a little attractive". I've come to the conclusion that she really thinks it is more than "a little attractive" for the following two reasons:

  1. She was trying not to inflate my ego so I wouldn't ask her more questions about it.
  2. She didn't want to admit that she likes raspy voices.

The only reason I ask is because at a Model United Nations conference in high school, I was attracted to a girl who was getting over a flu and had a cute, raspy, post-flu voice.

Could it be that since the dawn of human kind the raspy, post-flu voice has been attractive, but nobody was aware of it enough to talk about it. If so, should I try to write an article on it for YM or Seventeen Magazine, or should I take my world-changing idea to the Vogues of the world. Or...Is this just a me thing? Did I interpret Sheena's comment in the wrong way? Did she really mean to say, "I'm doing something else, and if I say 'a little' he will get off my back."

5 Minute Update: Sheena's response to how valid my idea is - "a little".

ed note: I wish she hadn't said that.

i think it's a combo of things...
i think we like things that are out of the ordinary...an accent for example is generally a big turn on for americans.. it's different, and therefore sexy.
second.. you're six feet five inches of pure power... what's not sexy about that?
