The word “sexy” can mean different things to different people—from the stereotypical voluptuous woman with big breasts and generous curves to the waif-thin female with doe eyes and long, long legs. Society has come a long way from just these basic body types, however, and the term has gone beyond physical looks. A sexy woman can be anyone from the femme fatale with superior intelligence, the girl with the rockin’ personality who does her own thing regardless of what others say, or the charismatic woman who captivates everyone as soon as she walks through the door. It’s more than just a look—it’s an attitude.

This year, FHM Philippines releases its annual 100 Sexiest Women of the World list as a supplement to its July 2010 issue. Readers from all over the country cast their votes to determine which woman’s brand of sexiness reigns supreme. Click through the slideshow below to see a few of the A-listers and find out what makes them sexy. While many of the FHM readers—and therefore those who cast their votes—are hot-blooded men, we think you ladies should share your own views on whether these women are hot (or not)! Vote in our gallery and leave a comment to tell us what you think makes a woman sexy!
