I love getting insight into the male mind! ‘The Box’ star James Marsden didn’t hold back, either, when he sat down with Women’s Health Magazine.
What do men find sexy that would surprise most women?
“Two things. First are body parts women are usually not happy with, such as a soft waistline and hips. I like both very much. Women hate when guys touch and pinch them there, but men don’t have curves and the more women embrace them, the sexier it is!
Second: when a sweaty woman is leaving the gym, because it’s similar to the way she might look right after sex. Anything that suggests you in that act [is hot].”
How a woman looks as she leaves the gym is sexy. Yes, this confirms it: men really do have sex on the brain all the time 
What was James’ biggest misconception about marriage?
“That nothing would change. I was with my wife for five years before we got married. At some point, she was ready to take the next step, and I would say, ‘I’m committed to you now; nothing’s going to change.’ But [once you marry] there is a huge difference. It’s a different mindset. If you already have a great relationship, it’ll only sweeten the deal.”

James shared the one secret power he wishes he possessed.
“It would be cool to be invisible, but I’m afraid of what people would say about me if they didn’t know I was there. Some things are better left unknown.”
Good point! He sounds like a sweet and thoughtful guy
If you want to read James’ entire interview, check out the November issue of Women’s Health Magazine, which is on newsstands now (it’s the one with Kristen Bell on the cover: see the thumbnail below).
James’ new movie, ‘The Box,’ opens in theaters this Friday. He co-stars with Cameron Diaz. You can read up on it here.
<3 him.
…no shit
but he sounds like a sweetie
oh gosh, YUM.
where’s manimal at?
Sounds like a good man. Not everyone wants a size 0 woman. My husband also prefers a few curves.
I agree with his secret power quote.
Kate Bosworth is known to screw everyone of her co-stars!
He had an affair with Kate “homewrecker” Bosworth while filming Straw Dogs……his beautiful wife was devastated.
Anon, how do you know this?
right, this guy cheats on his wife regularly! words are words and he is slime
Wait, what? Says who?
I find his comment about marriage a bit confusing and contradictory. It is probably just an awkwardly worded quote.
In my personal experience marriage doesn’t really change anything. I don’t think it is a different mindset at all really. It has just been consistantly wonderful on both sides of marriage for me and I am grateful that nothing did change in that respect. I am sure children will change things for us but marriage certainly did not.
Well, his wife was pregnant when they got hitched, so maybe that’s why it changed for him. I’m thinking he must be a major commitment-phobe to date her for 5 years before pulling the trigger on marriage. I wouldn’t have had the patience to put up with that!
Oh, okayyyy… yeah, for him, I probably would’ve, but only if he’s hung like a horse.
hes also cyclops in all the x-men movies.
how can i forget. i just looked him up and he’s been in other movies i’ve seen haha. like x-men….duh to me! i guess it’s cuz we dont hear much about him. always forget his name.
oooooh! now i know who he is. he did look familiar but couldnt remember from where.
He was also in ’27 Dresses’ among other things.
Oh, thanks.
I’m tingling. My #1 Celeb Crush. (Male, anyway!)
Sorry, I don’t recognize him.
“The Notebook” (he was Rachel McAdams’ fiance) and “Enchanted” are how I know him.
I was kind of indifferent to him in the past, but now I think I’m in love :-p
I went to a gym once.. And I felt anything but sexy… I felt terrible and I looked that way too. I never went back
Sounds like a sweetheart.
Whoa, where has this guy been my whole life. What a great guy. He just explained why my husband is always grabbing my fat a$$.
Insightful…LoL
i think 5 years aren’t too long. I mean when you get married you gotta be sure that you really wanna spend the rest of your life with this person, no matter what. So it’s better to really know someone in and out. he was only 22 when he started dating his wife. and let’s face it : what 20-something is really ready to get married? I just hope the rumors , that some people on this website tell ( that he’s cheating his wife ) aren’t true. Can’t there be one handsome, cute and young man who isn’t a swine? xD
