Foreheads

On women I have a not-so-secret yet seldom understood fetish for foreheads, tall smooth ones without widow’s peaks, untanned, ideal for pressing lips on after long painfully platonic conversations that last till dawn and end with both parties sleeping in separate rooms, the delicate and cute kind of foreheads that convey both intelligence and a high capacity for empathy, the kinds possessed by the likes of Jennifer Garner and Rachel McAdams.
