Have you tried KFC grilled chicken?

miamilady @miamilady (4910) • United States 5 Oct 09

In your opinion... What about a woman makes you think she's beautiful? Is it her eyes? Her legs? Her breasts? Her derriere? Her lips? Her hair? or does it go a little deeper for you? Do you look past superficial...
