        Hmmm, OK. As for looks, surely the majority of women would find him too small and too feminine looking. Incidentally, one observation I have made in life (and in some of the replies here) is that women erroneously believe that men are just hiding their ability to see another man's attractiveness. This is simply not true. Just because women can see what men find attractive in women does not mean it's the same for men. It is no coincidence that women know exactly what men want and men have no idea what women want. In fact it is quite simple, men and women both only want one thing - what they can't have! :) "The folly of man is that he dreams of what he can never achieve rather than dream of what he can."

Well done. :rose: And yes, I do think he's damn cute. ;) Part of the reason is probably that by age 21 his bone structure won't have been noticeably affected by testosterone yet (and the fact that T-Girls who transition before age 25 or so are often so stunning bears this out). As he gets older he'll probably start looking a bit more rugged and "male", but it probably won't be that noticeable until he's 30 or so. Facial hair is the other big thing of course - it makes the skin much more coarse and generally gives it a hard time. His eyes won't change though - they'll always be pretty. :-D David Wulff wrote: So they you go; it seems I may have a bit of closet homosexual in me yet.

            Anna :) wrote: I'd be very surprised if most of us hadn't come across someone of the same sex we'd been attacted to (even just a bit) at least once There's a difference between thinking someone is attractive and being attracted to someone. There are a couple of male CPians that I think are attractive people, but I am in no way attracted to them. Remember people are different. So, there could actually be some people on this planet that don't want to take it up the ass, nor do they fancy it. And, there are some people that do. I believe in Freudianism in the fact that everything does revolve around sex in one way or another - just pay attention to Trollslayer's "selective" posts for an example. And, if one guy finds another attractive without being attracted to him, per sé, I believe one explanation could be a subconscious hope that women will do the same. Hence, more of an opportunity to be around women, when being around that guy. Like sands through the hourglass, these are the days of our lives.

There is something hypnotically enthralling about those eyes! Paul Mckenner eat your heart out! Sure he smokes, drinks coffee and bites his nails, but hey no-one is perfect. :suss: :-O For those living in a cave, this is he. If you really didn't know who he was at least form his performances in the three LOTR films then but for the love of god you do not deserve to have eyes. Best performance to date - whatever that date happens to be - is always going to be The War (1994) where he played alongside Harrison Ford in the most emotional coming-of-age film I have ever seen. Nay, the most emotionally real film I have ever seen - and I laughed when the little baby was shot in that Planet of the Apes programme. It may seem silly if you watch it now, but at the time it made more connections with me than a home elctronics kit. Pure unadulterated acting brilliance from Wood, and one that has made me a bigger fan than my sister. So they you go; it seems I may have a bit of closet homosexual in me yet. No pun intended of course. *cough* ;) I can't be alone, so who else thinks Elijah Wood is damned attractive then? Fluffly tigeress's not alowed, I want admissions from butch lions...

Mind you, there's a difference between admitting an attraction for someone and wanting to sleep with them. In my case, although I'm attracted to some guys (I don't go for the rugged type, possibly because of my past) I can't see myself wanting to have a sexual relationship with one until after surgery (and maybe not even then).

Well, the short answer is a borderline injustice to the belief, but to shed some light on it you first have to realize the main goal of any species is to procreate - whether it be a virus, a dog, or an amoeba. Humans procreate through sex, so regardless of us getting our rocks off with guys or girls or monkeys or crusty underwear, we still have an acute interest in sex. We revolve around this fundamental need. If you didn't, you wouldn't just happen to check out some fine-ass chick (or stud) passing by or do whatever silly things to you to appease the almighty hormones. I dare you to not have sex (including masturbation) for a long time. One of two things will happen. 1: You'll crack and do it anyway. 2: You'll find another method of sexual satisfaction, whether it be pr0n or something like animals. This also applies if you can't get women. Another extreme in this situation too, is some guys will even turn to other guys to get it (note, I didn't say this is the only reason, so don't read too much into it). There is a whole lot more theory I have about all of this and my short explanation needs a lot more substance, but alas, I am at work and I can't spend too much time writing it at the moment. phykell wrote: Wow! - desperation, subconsciously or not... One thing is for sure; there are a zillion variables in almost any given situation. And, don't be so quick to ridicule a subconscious thought. It revolves around people's insecurities. Well all have them, just different ones. Have you ever seen a chick you didn't approach for whatever reason? I have, even though I have no problem with getting women. You may or may not choose "good looking" friends. As I stated, this is one possible reason. To reiterate, there are many variables involved. My point was there are other reasons a guy could think another guy is attractive without being attracted to him. If you like the study of the mind and psychology, you'll most likely end up studying Freud, and FWIW I think it's an interesting learn.

Then again, I simply don't think along the lines

                                          ...is damned attractive? I mean, damn, Anna - hold that bus for me I'm coming with you! The guy must be one of the cutest human beings I have ever seen - male or female - and I know he is only 21, but when he is forty he will still look nineteen, and those eyes... well did I mention THOSE EYES? There is something hypnotically enthralling about those eyes! Paul Mckenner eat your heart out! Sure he smokes, drinks coffee and bites his nails, but hey no-one is perfect. :suss: :-O For those living in a cave, this is he. If you really didn't know who he was at least form his performances in the three LOTR films then but for the love of god you do not deserve to have eyes. Best performance to date - whatever that date happens to be - is always going to be The War (1994) where he played alongside Harrison Ford in the most emotional coming-of-age film I have ever seen. Nay, the most emotionally real film I have ever seen - and I laughed when the little baby was shot in that Planet of the Apes programme. It may seem silly if you watch it now, but at the time it made more connections with me than a home elctronics kit. Pure unadulterated acting brilliance from Wood, and one that has made me a bigger fan than my sister. So they you go; it seems I may have a bit of closet homosexual in me yet. No pun intended of course. *cough* ;) I can't be alone, so who else thinks Elijah Wood is damned attractive then? Fluffly tigeress's not alowed, I want admissions from butch lions...
