You meet someone intriguing (or at the very least eye-catching) at a party or a bar. You go on a couple of dates -- for a coffee, a beer, a movie, or maybe even a whole meal. After some thought, you decide that it\'s time ... to see his living quarters. Going back to the apartment of a man you like can be daunting. You never really know what you\'ll find there: No toilet paper? Ten roommates with bunk beds? Too many photos of ex-girlfriends? A bag of his baby teeth under the bed? The possible turn-offs are endless -- as detailed by bloggers, women\'s magazines and television shows. However, here at HuffPost Women we prefer to focus on the good stuff -- those things in his living space that make you more interested in him as soon as you walk in. Maybe it\'s a collection of vintage magazines (a curated collection -- we\'re not into hoarders), or a great piece of furniture he purchased someplace other than IKEA, or the fact that there is not a single dirty dish in his kitchen sink. Below you\'ll find a roundup of our biggest male apartment turn-ons (gleaned mostly from our friends and co-workers, who will remain nameless), but now we want to hear about yours! LOOK: Women Share Their Biggest Turn-Ons In A Man\'s Apartment 1- Photos Of Him & His Family 2- Good Books (And A Nice Bookshelf): \"Nothing too pristine or organized, that means he\'s trying too hard to be intellectual when he\'s not.\" 3- A Big Bed (i.e. Not A Twin Bed): \"His bed. If it\'s too small, I can\'t work with that.\" \"Also, an actual bed (not just mattress) with actual sheets and an actual comforter. I wish that that could go without being said.\" 4- A Subscription To \'The New Yorker\': \"I really like a good New Yorker. Bonus points if it has his name on it indicating a subscription.\" 5- A Nice Coffee Machine 6- Healthy Food In The Fridge: \"... Or food in the fridge at all.\" \"At least four fresh fruits or vegetables.\" 7- Clean, Fluffy Towels 8- \'Jeopardy!\' On DVR 9- Triple-Ply Toilet Paper 10- A Plant (That\'s Still Alive) 11- Big Windows: \"Actually ... say \'lots of natural light.\'\" 12- A Bathroom Sink Sans Hair From Shaving: \"No little hairs in the sink and a hand towel that looks like it gets washed on a regular basis! I would marry that man if he exists!\" 13- No Roommates 14- A Guitar 15- A Great DVD Collection 16- A Book On The Nightstand 17- A Nice Bathroom (Specifically A Nice Shower): \"Something that gives a sense of personality. A subscription to something random like Discover, a shotglass shaped like a pineapple, a poster from a concert they went to in high school, a plant ... never mind, just the shower.\" \"I mean ... a stand up shower couldn\'t hurt ...\" 18- Mac Laptop And/Or iPad 19- Clean Sheets 20- An Impressive Sneaker Collection 21- Cheese (That\'s Not American Cheese) 22- Good Cookware 23- A Copy Of \'The Bell Jar\' 24- Art On The Walls (No Blank White Walls): \"A piece of art that isn\'t a framed album cover.\" \"No stupid Warhol prints thankyouverymuch.\"
