Never seen the commercials. The wiki picture is not so good, but google reveals much better ones so I say hot. ---

I totally think she’s hot, in a quirky sort of way. I’d do her, and I’m a married hetero woman. ---

I can see how some might find her appealing, but hot in a to-be-lusted-over way? I don’t see that. ---

Even if she were my preferred gender, I’d never consider her anywhere near hot. She’s a very average looking person, with way too much makeup. ---

I never understood the attraction to her that has appeared on the Dope- I find her so totally not my type, and personality-wise she might be fun to have in a group of friends but one-on-one I’d find her extremely irritating. Sexually, she’s a boner killer. _Not_ hot. ---

“I once went for 12 whole seconds.” How is that not hot? ---

Not only \*not \*hot, but her line readings make me want to throttle her. Her delivery and comic timing is absolutely awful. For a while, I thought that was the shtick, but now I think she (the actress) just doesn’t understand the jokes, such as they are. ---

De gustibus non est disputandum. I voted Hot. ---

I wouldn’t mind a quick roll in the hay with her - while she’s wearing the bouffaint of course. ---

Very hot. Persona and looks. ---

She become one of my oddball attractions, women I find incredibly attractive but don’t know why. Oh yes, she’s way hot. ---

If she’d **shut up for five minutes!!!** and wear less makeup, she mmight be attractive. She definitely exhibits several characteristics of “my type”, so I _might_ go for her. (BTW, on the poll, still “undecided”) Interestingly, she’s cuter than [Stephanie Courtney](http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1941215744/nm0183960) … ---

In relation to the other women one sees on TV she isn’t hot. Compared to normal people I see every day, she would be hot. I voted “not hot” as I only know her on TV. ---

She’s hot without realizing it. There’s something about that “can I help you?” peppy energy. One of the few duds was when she tried flirting with the guy that wanted motorcycle insurance. Flo is better when she doesn’t try. ---

I liked when she did that little “rearrrr” sound in the pet insurance commercial. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/flo-for-progressive-insurance-hot-or-not/518837.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/flo-for-progressive-insurance-hot-or-not/518837.md?page=3)
