    In fairness I've seen being called a hunk on T.V and he hadn't a clue how to react to it, except do a nervous, confused laugh.

    Both absolute beauties. Wasn't aware the latter was a sex symbol, though I do think she's a perfect argument as to why conventional 'beauty' means little.

    He looks terrific. All his own hair, not a single grey hair, trimmed eye brows and a year round tan and a hollywood smile. What more could you ask for a guy his age.

    Georgia Salpa. I just do not see the attraction at all! She looks like a poor man's Kim Kardashian or Nichole Scherzinger.

    In what universe was she ever a sex symbol though? I'm not aware of it anyway. A ('heroin chic', emaciated) top model, yes. A sex symbol, hardly.

    For me, Burt Reynolds and Tom Selleck spring immediately to mind. I guess I just can't see the appeal of a manly 'tache! :D

    Don't get me wrong. He is a born lasher and clearly the Adonis of our shores. But... I dunno call me weird. I just don't find him sexy

    Just thought of another one. Robin Thicke. He looks like the kind of man that has bad BO. :pac:

    Marty looks like a cross between Richard Simmons and a Chucky doll.

    Can't believe we're on page 2 and no mention of Sarah Jessica Parker.

    Tell me there's one man who fancies her apart from her husband? I've seen better looking horses.

    Ah now, she's not really considered a sex symbol, is she? IS SHE???? :pac:

    But on the subject of the thread, her brother! No, just no. I'm sure Jake is gutted to find out that I don't fancy him. :P:D

    Oh my gawd, yes!!! In 'Friends' when all the girls are swooning over him - :confused:. He looks like a dad. In fact, he looks like MY dad. Maybe that's the problem!
