You mean turned on by a man doing housework? I think it falls under feeling emotionally connected/loved by acts of service...my husband will empty the dishwasher before he leaves for work in the morning so I won't have to...just knowing he's thinking about me and trying to make my life easier definitely makes me desire him more...but not a turn-on like I wanna jump your bones cuz you look so sexy putting away that spatula...but the type of thing that makes me think of him in a positive way so when the time is right, mentally I'm there
So it's not really a visual thing, it's an emotional one.

A man might be turned on seeing their wife in a French Maid's outfit, but I seriously doubt he'd find it sexy watching her clean the kids' bathroom in it So it's not the emotional thing, it's the visual one...really clean first before he shows up...then put on the outfit and 'fake' clean

Thanks, I get it now. I thought women meant that it made them all hot and bothered.

That's the type of foreplay that starts long before you hit the sheets...throw in a sweet note...a backrub...anything that shows me I am loved and appreciated adds up at the end of the day to get my mind 'there'

My husband attacks me when I do the dishes. He just loves seeing a woman clean. I love seeing a man do man's work where they get all sweaty and you see muscles and what not. That's sexy. As far as house work, though, it's just the feelings of being loved and cherished.

A lot of it comes down to love languages. It depends on what makes you feel loved. My husband feels loved when I do things for him, but nothing makes him feel more cherished than physical touch. Me, I'm one who thoroughly appreciates acts of service. Because it can be difficult to keep it all together with small kids, helping me with some of the load really says "I love you." It really makes for great foreplay because it makes me want to fulfill him in return. The part that turns me on about it is I sense that he's doing it because he genuinely loves me and not for intrinsic rewards. What woman wouldn't want to please a man like that?

If a guy were to clean the house in the nude, that is a big plus to both. She will get help with housework, and he will get the best love he ever had.

ALRIGHT !
