Examples of very attractive men
Let’s have a super-shallow moment now, shall we? Over on one of the threads, there’s a big discussion going on about the sorts of men that women find attractive, and the sorts of men we don’t. This was sparked off by the belief of some in the Labour Party (and of Metrosexual 1 himself) that he is charismatic, charming and the kind of man that women go wild for. When I wrote that the only people who think Joseph Muscat is attractive to women are other heterosexual men, a bunch of men on this blog got cross with me for assuming that they don’t know what women like.
To avoid any more misunderstandings of this nature, and to explain to the Labour Party what women find attractive in a man, I am posting pictures of nine all-time greats. You will notice that they have nothing in common with our future prime minister. Ladies, in the comments section here please post the names of your additions to the list, and I’ll sort out the images and put them up. Let’s get this idea out of their heads that this twerp with ideas above his station is going to light anybody’s fire any time soon. And please, no Leonardo di Caprio or Brad Pitt or any other semi- or quasi-metrosexuals or escaped schoolboys, thanks very much. I’m sure there’s a fetish site elsewhere for that kind of thing.
From top to bottom: Steve McQueen; Colin Firth as Mr Darcy in that famous ‘wet white shirt’ scene from Pride and Prejudice; the most beautiful man in the world – George Clooney (we swoon at the mere mention of his name); Jim Morrison – just a little bit metro, but that was the Sixties; Nicholas Cage; Paul Newman; Richard Gere; Robert Redford, Colin Farrell.

where is my pic Daphne????
Daph, you forgot Harrison Ford :)
What about the metrosexual in the left bottom corner? :P
Give me Pierce Brosnan any day!! mmmmmmmmmmm
@Ivan M – that’s Colin Farrell (the moderator is putting his name up now). He’s anything but metrosexual. Look him up.
argh girl…i was just going to bed and you made me lose my sleep….
i’ll pick jim morrison, paul newman, robert redford and steve mc queen.
other girls can have the rest. no fights ok.
is johnny depp too metro? i don’t care.
johnny depp for prime minister.
ivan m,
colin farrell is a very naughty boy. definitely not a metrosexual guy.
@Claud – Johnny Depp, I agree: the trouble is that I couldn’t find a single picture that didn’t have him looking like a metrosexual. I’ll try harder.
@Amanda – Harrison Ford, of course. Coming up soon.
@Shannon Andrews – Pierce Brosnan, OK, agreed.
Big and very loud sigh.
Daphne has decided to pin the poor choice of MLP leader on men.
Came across this, and gave up trying to fit it (am enjoying seeing England loose, so can’t concentrate)
Ever notice how so many of women’s problems can be traced to the male gender?
1) MENstruation
2) MENopause
3) MENtal breakdown
4) GUYnecology
5) HIMmorrhoids
Any bright sparks can come up with something for MLP?
Daphne, you forgot the one with the roses

Richard Gere is fatter, greyer and wrinklier than that. He also wears glasses.
[Moderator – These pictures were taken at their iconic moment. A lot of the subjects are dead, and Paul Newman is 80.]
@Claud
Speaking of naughty boys, in the US, male prison mates receive a lot of love letters from numerous female fans
Daphne
My wife suggest Mourinho….
I agree with simon. Silvio Plastic Roses is surely d number 1! It’s not just a neat goatee!
The most beautiful man in the world – George Clooney (we swoon at the mere mention of his name)
… and imagine what women would do if he weren’t “George” but “Ryan“.
hahaha simon’s comment re silvio parnis.
did i see this in here first?
it done the rounds during the election.
xinuwwa sexeh

Other famous metros are Shahrukh Khan, Colin Farrell , Saif Ali Khan and Ryan Seacrest of American Idol.
while you women were preening about dirty men with smelly attire, our football boys have beaten Liechtenstein 7-1… thought I’d miss a lot of interesting points on my current fave website while watching the boys.. but it seems I haven’t missed anything!
ivan, don’t quote from the daily star, she’s the god mother of maltastar. it must have been a misprint.
colin farrell is not a metro.
@ claud !!! grrr!!!
Why do I even bother trying to argue with a female? :P
(waiting for Daphne to tell me off for being sexist now :P)
As a truce I’ll offer this:
site http://209.157.64.200/focus/f-news/1029796/posts where he’s listed as a “maybe” :P
Martin Shaw (Judge John Deed)
And what about yummy Clive Owen,Sean Connery,young Marlon Brando,Micheal Douglas,Ashton Kutcher i mean the list could go on and on and on but in a million years Joseph Muscat would never enter my mind,uniess maybe we were discussing “men that made your skin crawl,”
@Amrio – don’t you let your wife speak for herself?
How about some Italian guys? Two Alessandros come to mind: Preziosi and Gassman. As regards Richard Gere, he may have aged but he still oozes sex appeal.
@ Dolores B.
Or unless we were discussing men, kif jghid il-Malti, ‘tad-daqqiet ta’ harta’!
@Cikki – Martin Shaw was much more fabulous in the late 1970s in the TV series Bodie and Doyle. I had a poster of him on my bedroom wall. Will see if I can find a pic from that era.
@Daphne
?????
Of course! But she isn’t the write-an-entry-in-Daphne’s-blog type (her quote not mine!)
Daphne – You just reminded me … David Soul/Paul Michael Glazer (Starsky and Hutch of the ’70s), John Travolta in that revolting white suit (Grease, ’70s, yet again) … Once going back so far, then why not Luke Skywalker of the original Star Wars too? (Only joking about the whole lot, don’t worry!)
Daphne (re your comment to Amrio about his wife) – Maybe he was too shy to say it was his own suggestion! (Just joking, Amrio – Lest you think otherwise)
Daphne – that was then and this is now! And for someone reaching pension age I think he’s pretty perfect now!
Hey , you forgot Notary Cilia (Travolta) !
Hi Daphne I want to add just one name to that fabulous lot; John Kennedy jnr. His good looks kept on getting better and better the older he got. Too bad about that crash.
@Cikki – OK, I’ll wave my magic mouse and grant your wish.
With regards to Gere being old and these pics being “from their prime”, Paul Newman’s snapshot would be one from “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” and Richard Gere’s would be something fron “American Gigolo” (He was *fine* in that movie)
As for the list, I’m thinking Hugh Laurie and Gary Sinise?(I know, I’m weird…)
And in terms of this whole thing, the hottest men are the ones who continue to warm our hearts with breathtaking performances such as Pacino…
That is truely sexy!
[…] Va athletes for losing such a attractive great surgeon. He is my 50 year-old version of my Paul Newman crush. He did complement me on my good looking arm muscles. These high weights are paying […]
