Is Obama handsome or not?

That’s the question…

Is Obama handsome or not?

I am a male heterosexual so I can’t judge. He’s not an ugly guy, I guess…

Do you think he has a big penis? Yea or nay, offer proof.

He looks like Howdy Doodie’s love child. Can’t really comment on how much wood he can produce.

So, hotter than bin Laden?

He’s not, but he’s a smooth talker and very good physical shape.
errr, ummmm… how about them Bears?

I have always believed that Obama was gay or BI. I use as my proof that he only bowled a 43 and throws a baseball like Barbie.

Gah! Who isn’t??

Not exactly a Great Debate, and purely subjective, but from a guys perspective I think he’s pretty good looking. My wife things he’s pretty hot anyway, and she has good judgment generally (she picked ME after all)…

You can’t judge if other guys are good looking or not?? I’m a male heterosexual and in general I can at least nominally tell if someone is dog ugly or decent looking, even if they are a male. And when in doubt, I ask my friends. Most of my gay friends seem to feel he’s good looking, most of my straight female friends (and, as noted, my wife) seem to think he’s good looking, and based on my own judgment he seems to fall more into the ‘decent looking’ camp than ‘dog ugly’.

Basically, the ultimate indication IMHO is that he managed to get elected to be President. I don’t think anyone truly ugly would get elected, since I don’t think that’s how our system works. He’s at least handsome enough, but the broad standards of the US, to make it through the ‘too ugly to be elected’ vetting process.

I have no idea and am militantly uninterested in knowing. :eek:

He’s sexy enough. He’s 6’1" 180 pounds takes good care of himself and is a smooth talker. I’d hit it.

Back in 2001, there was a Pit thread in which bin Laden’s hotness was discussed. There were some who found him pretty studly looking.
Of course, that thread is likely impossible to find, so you’re free to believe I’m lying about that. Just don’t call me on it in GD. :wink:

On his other size since he’s moved into the white house, associations that provide condoms in the city have made requests for on average larger condoms.

He must have brought up the average!

Naw, I believe, you, even if I find it incomprehensible. I mean, leaving aside the mass murdering terrorist thingy, the guy looks pretty rough to me (even in 2001 he wasn’t exactly what I’d consider stud muffin’ material).

Of course, based on some of the porn sites I’ve wandered into from time to time, what people do or don’t find attractive can be fairly incomprehensible. Yikes! ObL is almost normal compared to some of the stuff I’ve seen…

Bin Laden is like 6’4-6’5 and is estimated to weigh 160. Not my image of a stud. While the height is an attractive quality the weight would imply he’s a bit on the bony side. I’ll take my studs with a bit of muscle on them thanks.

I’m also biased against the facial hair dude needs a shave.

Well, and a bath too. I’d think that would be important, and just based on the video of the guy and his wild tangle of hair and beard I’m thinking he only has a passing acquaintance with that soap and water stuff. I don’t know how important that is in a guy, but I’m pretty adamant about it in the women I like…

Don’t forget how green he was in those photos back then. Liver or kidney was supposed to be killing him, and damnit if the news photos didn’t do their best to corroborate the story.

Anglo female, roughly his age-range here: I think he’s very “handsome”, HOT even, big ears aside. (Bush Jr had some paddles on HIM, too, and HE was NOT, imo, remotely attractive:p)

I must admit that I tend to look beyond the physical to other qualities (humor, intelligence, philosophy, general demeanor, etc…) and to judge someone accordingly. He ranks high, imo, in all these areas, but I am answering honestly wrt his physical appearance. Hell, Dan Quayle was rather good-LOOKING, and I can admit that, but I’d never be at all interested. :smiley:

He and his whole family are ridiculously attractive, admit it. :cool:

I have no idea and no interest in the size of his penis. It’s apparently big ENOUGH to get the job done (twice) :wink: But ya know what they say; “Big ears, big…” (ear-muffs:))

Yeah, he’s handsome. Even my 10 yr old daughter has commented on it; “He’s CUTE!” :slight_smile:

As for Bin Laden, he’s BUTT UGLY, on SO many levels.

Welcome to the SDMB, Captain Midnight.

I have no real comment on whether or not he is handsome, but here is a telling photo:

President Obama (hint: don’t look at what he is reading, look what he is carrying!)

I’m not gay, but if I was, I’d pass, the ears are too distracting.

Michelle on the other hand, hubba hubba!

Obviously he dresses right. I admit, quite impressive. Did you bookmark that page for this particular reason ?

What, male heterosexuals are blind now? I’m a female heterosexual and I can still tell if a woman is good-looking.

Chin up, Captain. One day, even you can be secure in your sexuality. We have faith in you!

Obama’s a good-looking guy. I mean, he’s not movie-star handsome, but he’s pretty good-looking by ordinary person standards.

Great Debates.
