movie star "hunk" -- baffled

[ny biker]

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

Well, I don't have any sons.

And as I said, I think you can note if someone is attractive or not without being attracted to them. It's just understanding why others are attracted to them. Just like I can note if a woman is drop-dead gorgeous even though I'm not a lesbian or heterosexual male.

I totally agree. It's not necessarily about feeling an attraction - it's about recognizing attractiveness. For example, I think my younger brother is a really good looking guy. Am I attracted to him? Hell no! But I can still recognize that he is, in fact, attractive.

That said, I do think taste still plays a role.

Maybe it's because I'm getting older and accruing life experience myself, but I find men who behave with class and integrity to be a lot more attractive, and it's not always based on physical appearance. I guess I've had my fill of letches and jerks.

Roxy, who still gets squishy over Sean Connery

Exactly! Were my brother not my brother he is definitely the sort of guy I would be attracted to. He's tall, dark, handsome with gray/blue eyes and a friendly smile (with the personality to match). Athletic, but not a muscle-head. The jerk got the best physical features of any of us 3 kids...so not fair.

*snort* Mine too!

My brother is tall, lean, tanned, full head of thick light brown/sandy blonde hair and blue eyes. Super intelligent with a witty sense of humor AND he wears a uniform for his career!

I'm short, dark and stocky..."so not fair" is right!

I'm short, pasty, stocky, and asthmatic.

Uh, Sean Connery has a pretty sour reputation as a misogynist. I used to like him until I heard something nasty he said about his wife.

My daughter-in-law just got back from a solo trip to Forks; her little vacation before her third child is born. She was a huge Harry Potter fan, too, even though she was in college. I think she's got a little arrested development thing going on. I've never heard her say what "team" she's on, but I'll bet she doesn't like the pasty one, either.

I turned her on to True Blood. That'll grow her up, fast.

Does he? Drat. I've never heard that, but I don't pay attention to tabloid-type stuff. I miss a lot of pop culture that way.

I know you're not talking about the show Arrested Development, but while I'm thinking of it, I'd totally tap Will Arnett or Jason Bateman... yum, and yum!
