Straight Male Brad Pitt is just generally good looking and has awesome abs. I also think Matthew McConaughey is really funny and very attractive. ---

either Sean Penn or Benicio Del Torro. Do women find either of these guys attractive? ---

> [@11811](#): > > either Sean Penn or Benicio Del Torro. Do women find either of these guys attractive? Straight male here, and I clicked on this link with Benicio del Toro in mind. How odd to find him the most recently named! Now that I think about it, though, tops on my list is probably Cary Grant in his prime. ---

Heterosexual, though not exactly straight, male. Johnny Depp. No question. ---

Female het. After a bit of tinking I decided on this list: Alison Hannigan- I like her lips; she does this pouty thing with them that I can’t seem to replicate. Michelle Branch- She’s very beautiful, has a great singing voice, and hair to die for. Queen Latifah- It’s not so much her looks as her attitude; she exudes confidence. I find it interesting that when I’m trying to spot ‘attractive’ guys the first thing I go for is their eyes; if I don’t like his eyes then he’s not worth it. I can’t even tell you the eye colors of the women on my list though. Odd. ~ Switch ---

Straight female here. I like punky girls like Pink and Shirley Manson from Garbage. I wish they’d been more women like them around when I was looking for some strong female role models as a teenager, so I wouldn’t have felt so freakish with my tomboy attitude and big muscles (props to Madonna also on this point, and ageing very well) Also, Kathrine Hepburn, just for being so darn cool, self-possessed and elegant. Talking of fictional characters, my one true love, and one that was around to support me in those difficult teenage years, was the comic book version of Tank Girl. ---

No question: Tim Curry I have had a crush on him for years, ever since the first time I saw Rocky Horror. I have tried to model my life after him. \*) ---

Audrey Tatou. I actually just swiped her **Amelie** haircut. Fantastic hair, and a very beautiful woman. I also like Scarlett Johansson (sp?). She’s not stick-thin; she’s very curvy. Not volumptuous like Salma Hayek, but curvy. Ripe. Lush, if you would. I wouldn’t mind looking like that. ---

Straight male here. Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp are always good choices. I’ve always found Pete Steel from the Goth-punk band _Type O Negative_ to be my favorite. If I was a girl, I’d nail him in a heartbeat. ---

Straight female The ethereally beautiful Cate Blanchette The ridiculously sexy Salma Hayek (And I hate myself for it but Julia Roberts is plain beautiful. I think it’s her wide mouth, genuine laugh, and red hair.) ---

> [@Kalashnikov](#): > > Viggo Mortenson (the actor who played Aragorn) No, he’s not the most macho looking guy around, but he looks intelligent and celtic and that’s more important to me. And to many women. > > Just out of curiosity, what is his ethnic background? I was wondering when one of the guys would get a clue and say Viggo! I saw him on Letterman last week and he mentioned that his father is from Denmark. He actually lived in Denmark and Argentina for parts of his childhood. Having just returned from seeing Hildago, I want to reiterate you made a great choice! Viggo is HOT! ---

Straight male… George Clooney, Ashton Kutcher, Benicio del Toro, Brad Pitt… Also, my history teacher from last year, who coordinates our school’s GSA (Gay-Straight Alliance), which I am a part of. And a couple of friends of mine, Andrew and Matt. BTW, to the straight females who nominated Keira Knightley: Great choice. She’s incredibly beautiful, and I’d nail her in a heartbeat. ---

I’m a straight guy, and I always thought Hugh Grant was a good-looking guy. I get a woodie just watching him chew gum. :eek: Naw, I made that part up! Actually, the best-looking guy I think I’ve ever seen works in a related department of my company. Just unbelievably handsome, and his regular clothes fit him like a model. I don’t know how he must fend off the women… ---

> [@masonite](#): > > Gay male; Zeta-Jones is the ideal in feminine pulchritude; sorry if this is terribly common. Ditto. Also Angelina Jolie and Lucy Liu.

Straight male. Clint Eastwood, he has that “Skin like leather, and the diamond hard look of a cobra.” look. Michael Chiklas, Sean Connery, Patrick Stewart, Bruce Willis, all balding, yet ready to kick ass. ---

Straight female. Gillian Anderson is still very pretty, but in some of her photos from when she was my age, like this one [http://www.tccandler.com/Gillian\_Anderson\_Back.jpg](http://www.tccandler.com/Gillian_Anderson_Back.jpg) she was simply gorgeous. Audrey Hepburn, Sarah Thompson (Eve from “Angel” whom everyone but me hates) and singer Alica Keyes are all very beautiful women as well. Oh, to resemble any of them… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-person-of-the-sex-you-do-not-fancy-do-you-find-attractive/234440.md?page=3) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-person-of-the-sex-you-do-not-fancy-do-you-find-attractive/234440.md?page=5)
