Let’s Build My Dream Man

going with the Stepford prompt from Ruby Noir 😈

I was immediately drawn to this bonus prompt when Ruby Noir 😈 released it. The chance to pretend that my husband doesn’t exist and craft a man from the ground up? I’ll take it.

Physical Traits

I never really had a type that I went for time after time. I always went with a heart-first approach. Looks were just an extra. However, now that I have the power to design his personality…

Height:

Ideally, he’d be around 5'10 or 5'11. I hit my last growth spurt early and went to 5'6 in the sixth grade. I was taller than pretty much everyone else, including the guys. I kind of adapted to it.

I’d want a guy who I’m just a bit shorter than. I never wear heels now. But I did when I was younger before lymphedema progressed. I liked being taller than a guy when I wore heels. It felt comfortable.

Weight:

I’d say around 30–40 pounds over what he should be. Extremely skinny guys turn me off. I like a little bit of meat on the bones. Just, not too much.

Hair:

Down to his shoulders. It’s a direct contrast to mine. I always wear my hair extremely short, either a shaved head or mohawk…
