…or hunk if that’s more your thing. In case anyone wants to mock me for making this thread, **Viva** ’s partly to blame too! Remember that. 🙂

I still need to draw up a list. I’ll be back in a while to post it.

Jumping the gun on **Aesiron’s** list…

Kirk: a fine looking man in his younger days.

Picard: a sharp looking fellow with a nice cranium.

Riker: Looks great with a beard; sans beard, the inevitable Pottsie comparisons.

Sisko: Smooth and silky.

Chakotay: something ruggedly nice about him, and a good voice too.

* * *

Yes, I can rate women too:

Troi–looked much prettier in the last few seasons of TNG but not so much in the movies.

Beverly: a sexy redhead with beautiful skin.

Seven: looked better on rare occasions when she let her hair down.

That’s all I can manage for now.

Seven of Nine was One of One.

Y’all have fun arguing now. Contest’s over.

Dax would be a good person to meet, and the symbiowhatevers were Fiiine. Captain Sisko can inspect my cargo hold any time he wants to. If I’m going to lose the use of an arm during, then Ms. Torres would be my choice.

My Yar fixation dates back a long way, and I stand by it.

Mr. Kim, Mr. Sulu, Mr. Chekov and I need to have a few drinks and see what happens.

Mr. Data is apparently fully skilled in all forms of pleasure, which could really make up for a lot.

Uhura. Mmmm. Short skirts and big earrings.

As long as I don’t have to see Riker or Crusher Jr. or hear Cpt. Janeway or Cpt. Kirk, I’ll be fine.

I had no idea I was such a Trekkie.

I’m gonna do top-fives… Based on looks alone, because I have personality issues with some of these characters:  
Fellas:

1. Chekov (I don’t know… I just always thought he was adorable)

2. Tucker/Paris (they look pretty much the same, so I can’t really put one ahead of the other…)

3. Picard (maybe a bit too old for me, but he’s got a nice profile, and he’s sexy in a sedate sorta way)

4. Riker (not my type, but attractive in a large, ursine mammal sorta way)

5. Sisko (he’s got that poised, powerful thing going on. And I love his voice)  
Gals:

6. Uhura (She’s just gorgeous. Great legs, too)

7. Jadzia Dax (good-looking AND strong. You go, girl!)

8. Troi (great hair, and the accent makes her all exotic and stuff, though I disagree with most of her wardrobe choices)

9. Seven of Nine (she’s got really nice teeth.)

10. Hoshi (kinda neurotic, but she’s pretty in a not-absurdly-proportioned way)

Jadzia. She isn’t your boring stereotypical hot chick, and she’s got alot of spunk!! Now how far do those spots go…  
Kira. After a few seasons she just got prettier and prettier.  
(NOT Seven of Nine, she has a bird nose!!)  
Golly gosh, I can not think of ONE good looking guy on the show! :eek:

I always thought Majel Barrett was a major hottie, at least duing TOS. Pictures of her from the period _sans_ costume and makeup show her to be even more attractive.
