    movie star "hunk" -- baffled

    I just need to get this off my chest.

    Why is that Twilight dude Robert Pattinson the latest teen heartthrob? I just don't see it. I don't think he's the least bit attractive.

    Am I alone here?

    Nope, you are not alone. Then again, perhaps when we were teens our elders couldn't figure out the attraction to our heartthrobs either

    Yeah, but I can usually see the attraction in guys when they are generally considered hot, even if I personally don't swoon for them.

    But this Pattinson guy has me stumped.

    I grant that he has nice thick hair, but he needs to style it better. He's trying to rock the bedhead look but he goes too far with it.

    Oh yes he is

    But then I go for the skinny pale quiet ones. What I don't get is why the girls are all fawning over that lumpy tanned one with the babyface...

    He's kind of got the James Dean-Luke Perry thing going on.
    I would.

    Meh...if I were 20 years younger I'd have a crush on Shia LaBeouf. I like the ADHD nerdiness.

    The Twilight guy gives me the creeps.
    I think Shia is quite attractive. My eldest son does not look like him but has the same type of look.

    I agree! That guy is butt ugly, and I'm 25!!! So, technically I'm in the general age group that is supposed to find him attractive I guess! I think he needs to take a shower and some vitamins!

    He reminds me a bit of my husband, and I don't even know why

    But yeah, I don't get the twilight guy either.. my husband even makes fun of him - says he has a huge head compared to the rest of him.

    I've never heard of either of those boys and to be honest, I probably wouldn't look twice at them (too young). Andy Garcia and Antonio Bandares are more my style. ;-)

    I could never understand the big hoo-haw about that Matthew McWhatshisname. He just looks dirty or something---in a male-****, been with too many women, way.

    Never been attracted to 'prep-school boy model' types.
    I like grown men who have some character in their faces...and in their minds.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the books. <Insert ashamed face here>

    BUT, the Edward in my mind is SO much better looking.

    For reference, I'm in my late 20s, so I don't consider myself too terribly far detached from the generation of Twilight lovers.

    Oh are we showing our age??? There's something about finding a young man attractive who is the same age as my son or younger that creeps me out. Just doesn't do it for me. I want to cook him dinner and bake him a pie instead

    Always been a Sam Elliott girl myself.....rugged good looks and a sexy voice that makes your knees weak and your clothes fall off your body
