Hot Men Only Straight Women Find Attractive

Benedict Cumberbatch

Nevermind, I missed the "Hot" in the title.

Mel Gibson

Were gay men ever dying to fuck Jimmy Stewart?

De Niro was never gay catnip.

Watched a bunch of Stallone audience interviews and the women go insane for him. Who knew.

George Clooney post ER

John Wayne... Well, actually straight men wanted to be fucked by him, so that's a whole different catagory

Gregory Peck, Cary Grant

Did any gay man find Harrison Ford attractive? BTW R9, I am a gay man who always found Gregory Peck very dashing and sexy.

R3 Mel Gibson was hot in The Year of Living Dangerously and Gallipoli

Also DeNiro in 1900, The Last Tycoon and some scenes in Taxi Driver

R2

Michael Douglas has always very erotic to me. Since I was like 8 years old. Such a treat for me seeing this grown man naked in like Romancing the Stone, Fatal Attraction... he managed to look too to me by Basic Instinct, however.

*too old

I don’t see the fuss about Michael Fassbender nor Tom Hardy

So going by the posters responses, there are no such men. Close the thread

From reading this message board I’d say Armie Hammer

Do gay men want to fuck Adrian Brody? Many women did at the height of his fame when he won the oscar.

Was Robert Redford loved by gays? What about Warren Beatty?

Omar Sharif

R16 must be nearly blind since they can't see Fassbender's foot-long dong.

R23 aside from that

Harry Styles.

Cary Grant, Gregory Peck, Tom Hardy, Fassbender and 80s Michael Douglas - I’d do them all! 😍

R25 agreed! Bob Dylan

Gregory Peck is my all time favorite male specimen (other than Paul Newman) gorgeous man, fantastic actor, and a great human being.

Many of the guys named in this thread are way hotter than any of the Insta- hoes that I see on DL.

Michael Jackson

R28 for sure they’re hot, but I just don’t see them appealing so much to gay men that I know.

@r21, Warren Beatty, definitely, Robert Redford, not so much :(

Tab Hunter was a BEAUTY. Gays don't get it. Those gurls don't like very handsome men.

more Tab

The gays were never into Johnny Depp or Ben Affleck.

R34 I beg to differ on both counts!

gays don't like them too butch. It's a myth they do. They prefer androgynous. Scrubbed and shaved. Shiny & clean.

Christian Slater maybe. Did Ethan Hawke have gay appeal?

R34 I agree. Both hideous!

Brad Pitt Michael Easton

Guys that have huge female followings but many gay guys don't pay much dust to:

Brad Pitt

Leonardo DiCaprio

Johnny Depp

Fabio

Tom Cruise

Michael Bolton

Harry Styles

Michael Jackson

Prince

Justin Timberlake

Most boy bands

*pay dust to

Kevin Costner

R10, Harrison Ford's appearance as Han Solo in the original "Star Wars" caused five year old me to realize I prefer men over women. I'm not a huge fan, but his looks during those original three films and the "Indiana Jones" trilogy got me through my early years growing up gay in uberconservative Indiana. I've also seen his nearly nude scene in "Frantic" and shirtless scene in "Working Girl" mentioned often here on DL. Young Ford still has quite a following among gay nerds, being seen as cool and masculine. Old Reanimated Drunk Corpse Ford less so.

R43 I found him hot in his tiny role in The Conversation

Is Denzel Washington a sex symbol only for straight black women or do gay guys find him hot too?

Were Michael and Glenn just hit over the head with frying pans when that picture was taken? Or are they suddenly smelling roadkill?

R9 - you're taking the piss out of us, surely? Have you seen Peck in his really young acting days, e.g., in The Parradine Case?!

He didn't turn into Atticus Finch till much later. and since Grant was at least bisexual, obviously gau men did find him attractive.

^*gay not gau (I'm already into Yuletide afternoon cocktails)

R47 It’s not that they are unattractive I just think I’m more likely that hear straight women talk about them being hot rather than gay men.

Rudolph Valentino

Matt Damon

Hugh Jackman . . . Straight women are crazy about this guy, but gays are not sexually attracted to him.

How has Tom Hiddleston not made an appearance yet?

R52 yeah, good one

Is Chris Hemsworth too controversial. He’s too built for me and his face is not much.

Half of these choices are wrong. Cumberbatch? Affleck with his big titties? Please.

R55 Affleck used to be hot circa Chasing Amy

R46, I think they're smelling M, who had gone all Method for her role in "Ironweed" and stopped bathing or cleaning herself in real life too.

I think mine is 100% accurate

Benedict cumberbatch

Tom Hiddleston

Adam Driver

David Tennant

Matt Smith

Misha Collins

Elvis.

I’d eat his ass.

I find Benjamin Cumberbatch attractive...in theory. In person he might be a little icky.

I don’t know if straight women found Bob Dylan hot?!

Anyone saying gays didn't fawn over Affleck and Damon wasn't around or wasn't paying attention in the late 90s. Everyone I knew would talk about how one or the other was their "perfect guy". My boyfriend at the time was infatuated with Matt Damon. I remember a house party where about 15 guys got in a heated discussion over which one was hotter, with people even getting upset.

And R62 a girl I went to high school with was in love with Bob Dylan, and then his son when the Wallflowers had their 15 minutes. I never saw it for either.

Matt Damon is definitely the type gay guys would like. Muscular and beefy with a cute face. I think Ben and Casey Affleck appeal more to straight women though.

All of the Beatles

Benicio Del Toro

Ryan fucking Gosling.

Baboon-eyed, low-cheekboned, horse face.

Absolutely can’t handle it.

All the women I know squirt their lady clams IMMEDIATELY upon mention/sight of him.

R51 - well his boyfriend does

There was a whole genre of fan art involving sexiness between Benedict Cumberbatch and his Dr. Watson (who also played Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit). I have to assume straight women created these works—is it possible that any gay man would get off on such a pairing?

R50 both those choices have gay appeal to judge from various threads on DL over the years.

I'm sorry, FABIO? GTFOH This thread is full of lunatics.

Harrison Ford from 1975 until the 90's was the HOTTEST man on earth in my eyes. Everything about him.

"gays don't like them too butch"

Stop with the generalizations. Gays like everything from Filipino ladybois to grizzled truck drivers.

This is such a dumb thread. Why would we care. Frau obsessed queens have taken over DL. It wasn't always like this.

Straight men and women love LG.

R74 you’re free to clack your fan in another thread, Gurlina.

On the flip side, I think the beautiful but somewhat blank “Michelangelo’s David come to life” type (Henry Cavill, David Corenswet, early career Tom Welling, that Italian math teacher who got instafamous for thirst traps) don’t do much for many straight women.

I would also say that Chris Meloni and Bobby Cannavale and their “trade but make it camp” vibe has made them especially beloved by gays.

Denzel Washington

Sean Penn

Kurt Cobain

Michael Stipe

David Boreanaz

Indris Elba

Jake Cannavale.

R10 - I have always found Harrison Ford hot. He was my first crush as a gayling. I felt a flutter in my heart and in my pants.

R78, IDris Elba and Denzel are both attractive men, and I’ve always thought of them as hot - Denzel more so than Idris.

I guess it all comes down to personal taste.

Guys that I hear girls of all ages obsess over:

Denzel Washington

George Clooney

Johnny Depp

Orlando Bloom

Brad Pitt

Leonardo DiCaprio

Adam Levine

Jake Gyllenhaal

Ryan Gosling

Justin Timberlake

Adam Lambert - his fans are all female.

Nicolas Cage

R71 - I'm with R40 on that one; Fabio is probably the #1 candidate on this thread for what the title is looking for.

Title shouldn't include "hot".

Basically any ugly as fuck musician.

Usually, it's decidedly not-hot men who straight women find sexy because of their personality/power and whom gay men, otherwise, find 'meh.' (i.e. most rock band frontmen).

Jamie Dorman

Fifty Shades of Grey in general was boring as hell to me and not at all shocking or sexy.

Jamie is a cute guy with a nice guy but not this god among humans.

Pudding face Niall Horan.

R72, Agreed. He was so damn sexy during that time-frame. I am not into pretty boys. Someone like him or a young William Holden yasss!

Channing Tatum? Magic Mike aside

R84, Nicholas Cage was sexy in Moonstruck. Relatively young, in shape, looking more Italian than usual.

I think George Harrison was very handsome and John Lennon had a certain something. I find young John VERY appealing. Paul is cute but I can believe only straight women go for him.

And I find Ringo sexy in this video.

I don’t get the Benedict Cumbervatch thing, nor the Alan Rickman thing, so I would say those two. Cumebebatch seems to have a sense of humor about his own looks - I think he once described himself as looking like an alien? Rickman seemed humorless. I guess straight women see these guys as dorks grown up to be successful? I don’t know.

I don’t know if I’ve ever heard a woman say Nicholas Cage is hot but I do know straight guys who love him.

I never understood Channing Tatum. He looks like a caveman. Adam Levine looks like a serial killer.

Channing T seems like a he has a sense of humor, and he does have a nice body.

And I have seen DLers go nuts for Adam Driver.

Channing Tatum from the time when he started acting in things like Coach Carter was a wet dream. He pranced around in movies like some sexy street trade.

Leo and Ethan Hawks I wouldn’t want in bed. Adrien Brody? Yes. Bones and all.

Ben Affleck, Elvis (before he got hugely fat), Mark Wahlberg, Sean Connery

I’ve never understood the appeal of Leo DiCaprio.

Butter face; very round with non-existent cheekbones. Patchy beard.

He just seems to radiate pudgy dough boy. There’s nothing about him that suggests a virile masculinity.

If he were a body part personified, he would be a fat upper pussy area (FUPA) that is shaved with razor bumps and glistening and jiggling with mineral oil and baby powder.

The Leo thing is easy to figure out. A lot of pre-teen and teen guys on here fell in love with him on Growing Pains back in the day. And they haven't been able to quit him.

John Mayer, dead around the eyes and not sexy, never hear gay guys talk about him but, many women do like him and Brad Pitt is another.

Johnny Depp. Not in his current state, but in his prime. You have to admit he was attractive, but it's mostly women who found him hot.

Mick Jagger with those blubber lips. Yuck! Not hot or sexy though women thought so!

Jon Hamm, at the peak of Mad Men, was the undisputed sex symbol for women, but never took off with gay guys, even though gays were the show's biggest fans.

Only women are attracted to:

Denzel Washington

Kevin Costner

John Mayer

Idris Elba

Jamie Dornan

David Gandy

Drake

R102 yeah, but that doesn’t explain WHY they fell in love with him.

R104 Meh. Depp’s face has all the scientific proportions and angles to be appealing and attractive but when put together as a whole it just...there’s something I can’t put my finger on.

It’s the opposite of somebody possessing plain features when isolated has everything look way more attractive when composed in the full face as a whole.

I’ve spent 20 minutes looking at old photos of Nicolas Cage because I thought at one time he was almost decent looking.

No such luck.

This is the closest he ever came to almost decent looking.

Richard Gere, my mother used to love him, I never understood why.

R109

Miss Cage has major BDF. He wasn’t too bad in his earlier years (especially with that hairy chest).

Kevin Costner. Even at his best, he was "meh". My sister and mother LOVED him.

I thought Michael Douglas was hot when he was younger. I remember as a 12-year-old enjoying his ass in Fatal Attraction. A whore I was even then.

I think Kevin Costner was hot. So sexy in Bull Durham and Revenge. But Keven never had a great body, though.

Channing tatum

Michael Douglas was NEVER attractive. His face is gargoyle-esque. His father looked like a mask but had something that carried it off. Ugh. I never met a woman who thought he was "hot." Rich, yes. Connected, yes. A reasonable actor, yes. Dreamboat, no.

yawn

Leo was way too young looking and pale during Growing Pains. He looked like a child.

I think his looks peaked in the mid-90s during Basketball Diaries, Romeo+Juliet, Quick and Dammed, Marvin's Room and Total Eclipse. He had a hot street hustler look at that time.

He had comeback in looks during The Beach and Blood Diamond, he put on some muscle and grew stubble.

Colin Firth

Denzel Washington

Al Pacino

Jack Nicholson ( I know he is not attractive but women go ape shit over him - fame)

Steve McQueen (the American actor, not the British director).

I thought Steve McQueen (the actor) was hot.

I have never understood women drooling over Johnny Depp, Colin Firth or Pierce Brosnan.

With Alan Rickman some of my straight female friends said it was his voice they loved. Strangely enough I found Jeremy Irons attractive (looks and voice) but he did nothing for these women.

I'm starting to see a pattern here with some of the names, and if related to very thin white men lips, but I refuse to believe women want to fuck Michael Jackson, Adam Driver or Nicholas Cage.

R106 - David Gandy, really? I think he's one of the most beautiful men I've ever seen!

Pierce Brosnan was very nice in The Long Good Friday. Hairy chest and handsome face.

He's not a hit with gay men, r122.

[quote] Prince

This! His fangirls (a cult which includes a sister of mine) always seem to go on about how hot and sexy he is! I don't get it. Or maybe I had to be there during the height of his fame.

I'll throw in another one. Eddie Vedder! I've only ever heard women declare how hot he is...

Mr Big from Sex and the City.

That fabio creature.

Sean Bean. If you think he’s ugly as a man, Google the BBC drama where he played a transvestite. But women go all funny when talking about him.

Hugh Grant

Chris Martin

Adam Levine

Tom Hiddleston

George Clooney

Brad Pitt

Robert Redford

Glenn...whatshisname.

This thread is full of insanity. That said, Chris Evans for sure.

r5, really. I couldn't get enough of young vito.

r109, I Thought he was cute in Birdy. But I am a woman.

I think this is a decent picture

Ryan Reynolds, Ryan Gosling, Michael Caine, Tom Hiddleston, Brad Pitt, Leo DiCaprio, Richard Chamberlain, Robert Redford, Clark Gable

I don’t know if this phenom really exists, but of those mentioned I think McCartney comes closest.
