Burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese talks to MSN

What do you look for in a man?

I like being with men who have the same kind of sense of humour as me. Once I tried dating someone who had a lot of great attributes, but he was lacking in the humour department, and I really missed that dynamic I had with other significant relationships I've had. Laughter and wit are extremely sexy attributes, and so I won't really seriously date someone who isn't funny and quick-witted.

I also need to be with a man that has his own thing going, and the confidence to hold his own power in the relationship. So I look for men that have established themselves, because I'm done apologising for my success, I'm just ready to enjoy it with someone deserving! I really need to be with a man who allows me to really let go and be ultra-feminine, a man who can take charge.
