You beat me to it. And it looks like poor Pierre is already on his way to losing his hair.

I’d still do him though.

Maybe those boys are wearing it long because they are fairly sure that they are doomed to receding hairlines. Over their lifetimes, they’ll average out to something close to a full head of hair?

[QUOTE=ivylass]  
Because you can’t spend all your time having sex. You have to eat dinner sometime, and then, what are you going to talk about?

I’m one of those who thought Chandler was sexier than Joey. Sure, Joey, was cuter, but Chandler was smarter and funny in a wry way, not funny in a stupid naive way like Joey.  
[/QUOTE]

I don’t think I’d demand anything more than sex from him. He’s very hot and I bet he’ll be smokin’ at 40, too. I don’t care what he collects, what he does, who his parents are, or the unfortunate fact that he looks totally comfortable in dressy duds. Tie him to a tree for a week, get some stubble going, and I’m his.

Damn! The whole family is gorgeous!

Sister [Charlotte](http://pds5.egloos.com/pds/200704/13/59/c0037159_06040995.jpg), also [here](http://worldroots.com/brigitte/royal/gifs2/charmonaco305.jpg), [here](http://www.gala.fr/var/gal/storage/images/le_gotha/leurs_bio/casiraghi_charlotte/images/charlotte_casiraghi/237441-1-fre-FR/charlotte_casiraghi_reference.jpg), [here](http://petitebrigitte.files.wordpress.com/2007/02/charlottecasirag.jpg), and [here with brother Pierre](http://gracemagazine.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/charlottepierre350.jpg)

[/QUOTE]  
I don’t know - she’s got that kind of spoiled rich-girl look. As Raymond Chandler put it -

If Princess Charlotte married Prince William of England, I’m sure their children would officially be Most Beautiful People of the Universe.

Oh, come on. Like you wouldn’t like to go out in public with him just to show him off. 😃

See? No way it’s just sex. Something that perfect (like the [Teacup Shoes](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=9746188&postcount=2)) you need to show them off.

Yeah, but that’s the kind of guy that will draw crowds of women who would have no qualms about walking right up to him and tossing out a proposition. I’d have to take off my teacup shoes and put on my ass-kickin’ shoes and then my hair would get all mussed and he’d probably end up leaving with one of them anyway!

No…no good can come of a public exhibition. I’ll just leave him on that tree out back.

Well, then, I guess it all depends on how much you can…_enthrall_ him. 😛

The prince reminds me of actor [Edward Albert](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001902/), only blond and possessing an almost absurdly square jaw (like a cartoon of a Royal Canadian Mountie).

Seriously, though – who collects Swatch watches (Swatch is still around?)? Who even wears watches anymore?

Yeah I’d polish their crowns all right.
