My friend Jeff watched Repo! The Genetic Opera, and afterwards he came to me. JEFF: Graverobber – what’s his name – ME: Terrance Zdunich. JEFF: Yeah, him. That guy. Lemme tell you, I ain’t gay. But that guy is sexy. He could have it anytime he wanted it. As for me, I would make sweet love to Kelis any time of the day or night. ---

I’ll go with Michael Pitt. Well, I’m going by the way he looked in Boardwalk Empire. A quick Google image search shows that before that series he looked…peculiar to say the least. ---

I would have taken you for more of a ‘I find [Reinhard Heydrich](http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/latenightlive/hitlers-hangman/3661682) attractive’ type of guy (although I understand he did sound kinda gay when he spoke). ---

Oooh! Can I play too? The great Garbo, for one. Queen Nefertiti (at least, going by her [bust](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Nofretete_Neues_Museum.jpg)) Marlene Dietrich Brigitte Nielsen Kiki de Montparnasse (Alice Prin) … With one exception, they are all icons from art deco and earlier eras. Guess women just photographed (sculpted) better then :). ---

The one name that comes immediately to mind for me is Antonio Banderas. ---

I have been jealous of Paul McCartney’s baby face when he was younger and I can recognize that male fashion models are more attractive than WWF wrestlers, Bozo the clown, George Castanza or Austin Powers Fat Bastard. But men pretty much all look like goofballs to me. ---

This isn’t a problem for me. Sofia Veraga. Selma Hayek. Kim Kardashian, if we’re just talking looks not personality. Catherine Zeta Jones when she was younger. I appear to have a type for women. Interestingly, the men I find attractive do not fit into one type at all. ---

Daniel Craig. I can see where Johnny Depp is…pretty, I guess, but I don’t think he’s attractive. And I can see why Clooney would be considered attractive, but he doesnt strike me so. ---

My SO has straight-man crushes (“as ACTORS, Sali, as ACTORS!”) on Johnny Depp, George Clooney, and Daniel Craig, and once upon a time Tim Curry in RHPS - so he’s not totally clueless! I’ve always admired some of the movie sirens of the past. Gloria Stuart, Carole Lombard, Miriam Hopkins, and Constance Bennett. Greer Garson, Vivian Leigh, Rita Hayworth, Hedy Lamarr. Currently, I can only think of Zoey Deschanel, Christina Applegate when she was on MWC was breathtaking, and maybe Drew Barrymore. But I will confess, I can’t say why exactly, but Scarlett Johanson is more than beautiful to me. There’s something blank and cool about her that may be construed as a negative, but somehow she fascinates me more than any other actress ever has. ---

Mark Hamill (Star Wars) looked good-but now…he’s a mess! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/people-of-the-same-sex-you-can-honestly-admit-are-attractive/622461.md?page=4)
