    The amount of times I've read that he's a sex god and in a rather amazed tone asked nearby females I know, only to have them confirm it. It just baffles me completely.

    Is he a sex god 55 votes

    Must be the french accent - accents can make some people go all silly. Don't see it myself, he looks older then he is and that nose, hm, no doesn't do anything for me.

    Oh dear God no! You had me all excited there too until I realised who you were talking about :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    Have you seen him in 1492: Conquest of Paradise or in Cyrano De Bergerac ?

    What can I say except RWARRRRRRRRRR!

    I think he looks great for 60.
    I don't have any wild Gerard fantasies, but I wouldn't kick him out of bed for eating crisps.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,239 ✭✭✭✭WindSock


    Not my type. The potatoe nose turns me off. I prefer parsnips

    Where's the love for "Number One"? Who took care of all the dangerous away missions? :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 382 ✭✭Baudelaire


    For the accent +1 for the nose -1 but he seems like the type of person that would grow on you (sort of like a little French fungus) with a little effort but I don't think I'd be bothered

    Me too, it's not just that he doesn't do it for me, he actually does the opposite, yuck. I can't even stand to watch him in a movie at all.

    Patrick Stewart, meh, so-so. Something sexy about him alright, but he doesn't float my boat. Commander Riker (sp?), no. Not in a million light years. Deanna Troy, now there's a trekkie with sex appeal, and I'm not Gay.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,122 ✭✭✭LadyJ


    To all of those who don't think Patrick Stewart is a sex god, your opinions are wrong!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    Gerard Depardieu - definitely not. But there must be something attractive about him since so many women seem to have the hots for him.

    Patrick Stewart - mmm!!! Very nice. Good work LadyJ! He'll be 70 the year after next - wow, he looks exceptionally youthful.

    Other hot older men: Clint Eastwood, Al Pacino. Hubba hubba!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Lockstep


    Oh Gerard Depardieu.

    He seems to be France's only actor.

    I see him in nearly every bloody french movei I've ever seen.


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    No to Gerard. He just wouldnt do it for me. For a sexy older guy it has to be Al Pacino.

    Or Ill take the guy from the aero ad, regardless of his age.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,900 ✭✭✭Quality


    Eh no., a little bit of my lunch just came up there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 600 ✭✭✭PurplePrincess


    I can't see the attraction to Gerard at all??

    Now patrick Stewart.that accent.....hubba hubba

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 92 ✭✭Crazy Catlady


    Wouldn't be my type, but none the less, I can see why some people would.

    They are obviously blind people.

    Ah no, he's a crap actor aswell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,392 ✭✭✭TequilaMockingBird


    I'm sorry, but its a yes to Gerard from me. I don't know why. But yes. :o

    Yea.. george is one of those dudes i think is a looker.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,945 ✭✭✭cuckoo


    Patrick Stewart...oh, my captain, my captain! *swoon*

    Thinking of older guys with accents, how about Sean Connery? I would. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,145 ✭✭✭SarahSassy


    Never saw the attraction, no more than Willem Dafoe or the like....

    In fact, Depardieu is particlarily unattractive. I have yet to meet a man with long hair that I fancy :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,598 ✭✭✭ferdi


    Oh Gerard Depardieu.

    He seems to be France's only actor.

    I see him in nearly every bloody french movei I've ever seen.

    He's not actually french born but he plays the french(type) character in so so many films:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭Nightwish


    Mmm Patrick "Make It So" Stewart, what a deliciously sexy hero :D

    Gerard Depardieu is a sleazy tiny little icky frenchman. I do not see the attraction at all. Now here's a sexy older man :)

    Not meaning to being a pain in the butt (but being one all the same) he is French.

    I was refering to Jean Reno (see large picture) who was born in morocco.

    edit: Here is another pic in case the first one didnt work for you

    Well at least I feel a bit less confused over this now since most of you seem to find him as offputting as I would have expected were it not for the times I've encountered articles and women who consider him a sex god. Can only assume it's something to do with his being French, or some quality (that as a male I'm blind to) that doesn't interest the rest of you, that does it for those who do find him appealing.
    At least the rest of the names people have been suggesting as more attractive I can, on some level, understand.
    I'm tempted to start a Patrick Stewart one since he seems to be so popular;) (even in RL I've known quite a few girls who've found him rather appealing), at least he has the distinguished gentleman air about him which I'd imagine might be attractive (can only guess that's the whole thing with Collin Firth as Mr. Darcy too).

    I became a fan of Gérard Depardieu over 20 years ago. I've seen many of his films.
    Watch the following and tell me you don't see that je ne sais quoi:

    Les Valseuses
    Tenue de Soiree
    Cyrano de Bergerac
    Jean de Florette
    La Chevre (probably my fav french film ever)
    Le Placard

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,613 ✭✭✭✭Clare Bear


    He's mank!

    It must be the accent.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 157 ✭✭Babette08


    God no he's gross - i can imagine him slobbering :eek:. Charm / charisma he probably has so would most likely make an interesting dinner date but as far as anything else - keep those hands to yourself!!! Yuk

    I dunno I guess different strokes..probably the same as Marco Pierre White - although he's old and looks a bit scruffy, something about him i can't put my finger on :confused:

    I would not knock down my partner on his ass to get near the man, but fair is fair, Gerard Depardieu is amazing actor.

    I think we as women associate older with experience, confidence, self-asteem, knowledge, charm, intelligent and sophistication.
    The younger ones have energy but not experience,
    The older ones have experience but not always the energy.
    Sweet irony, you monster!!!!!!:rolleyes:

    Jeremy Irons, Ian McKellan, Richard Gere, Denzel Washington, Harrison Ford, Sam Elliott, Robert Redford, Pierce Bronson, of course Sean Connery and Patrick Stewart :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    and if your really into older men................


    Mickey Mouse is over 50 short, dark and handsome!!!!

    Definitely Richard Gere, Denzel, Robert and Pierce. Sean Connery is the older man sex-god.

    Another one I love is Ed Harris:

    Forgot about Ed Harris!!!

    Yes, would certainly like to lick him!!!

    I need to go lay down now, feeling a bit weak at the knees!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Lockstep


    If I was gay/a lady I'd be stalking Sean Connery and Christopher Lee like a greased leper.

    Hand on my heart - I dont see the 'je ne sais quoi'!!!I actually have this obtuse liking of Christopher Walkin and Sean Connery is a total yum.
