That Greg Kinnear is one handsome devil! Spill the beans… who can’t you help noticing for their looks despite their gender not being your preference. ---

I’d totally do Lorne Green even though I’m not generally into extradimensional beings. ---

Okee-dokee - Jason Statham is a handsome dude 😃 ---

Angelina Jolie. That woman is so hot she makes me wish I were a lesbian. ---

Chris Isaak is super-cool, extremely talented with a killer voice, and very handsome. There, I said it, and I’m still totally straight. If I was a girl, I’d probably have a major crush on him, but as it is, I just want to BE him. I think Johnny Depp, Jason Statham, John Cusack, Harry Connick Jr., Bono, and Brad Pitt (as Tyler Durden) are all cool and good-looking too, and I am comfortable with that. ---

Someone mentined Johnny Depp. I prefer him when he’s acting to the real thing. I was quite fond of his Willy Wonka. ---

I believe I’ve mentioned elsewhere my wife’s belief that I would do Robert Redford in a heartbeat. ---

Audrea Tautou, the girl in Amelie. Yummy! She’s also supposed to be in the Da Vinci Code movie. ---

My husband is straight (as far as I’ve experienced, anyway) but he’s expressed on more than one occasion how good-looking Timothy Dalton and Sean Bean are. I think with him it’s more “wish I’d been born with those looks”, than wanting to have the men. Yes, he just confirmed: it’s envy. As for me, there are plenty of women I think are just delicious, from Louise Brooks and Clara Bow up to Shania Twain. ---

I amuse my girlfriend by remarking that I find John Stewart attractive. In fact, there’re a few in hollywood I find attractive, though not enough to push me in the other direction (so to speak). Off the top of my head: ( 1 ) John Stewart ( 2 ) Wilmer Valderrama ( 3 ) John Cusack ---

> [@Aesiron](#): > > To explain this, I’m bi and want to do everyone if you believe the propaganda (and am Southern so animals go without saying…) so I had to go with a demon if I wanted to play. I don’t get it. Lorne Green is a dude. He’s the guy from Bonanza. When did he become a demon? Or is this something to do with Galactica, or his death, or something? ---

Lorne Greene is a dude whereas Lorne Green (I assume the spelling is different so as to differentiate them a bit in text but I’m honestly not sure) is an effeminate demon from _Angel_ with green skin, red eyes, and horns. ---

> [@Aesiron](#): > > To explain this, I’m bi and want to do everyone if you believe the propaganda (and am Southern so animals go without saying…) so I had to go with a demon if I wanted to play. Um, so you weren’t talking baout this [Lorne Green](http://bonanza1.com/lorne.html), right? You meant the [Lorne Green](http://www.visimag.com/tvzone/images/t173_feat01.jpg) from Buffy? Otherwise, it’s kinda a weird necrophilia/father-con thing… My pick has always been Gewn Stefani. But recently I’ve noticed how incredibly gorgeous Scarlett Johanssen is. ---

If I were to wake up one day and notice that I’d become a lesbian, I would certainly hope that Gina Gershon found me as attractive as I find her. (I was going to say Angelina Jolie, but **Large Marge** got her first, and I don’t think I’m up for a threesome.) ---

> [@Aesiron](#): > > To explain this, I’m bi and want to do everyone if you believe the propaganda (and am Southern so animals go without saying…) so I had to go with a demon if I wanted to play. Bi too, and you took the _cute_ demon. Damnit. Though he does seem to get around so it’s probably not a problem. ---
