The 10 best-looking men ever

[Versatile]

This is a rough draft from a straight man. So it needs some help.

Sean Connery, circa 1965
Jon Hamm, circa 2007
George Clooney, circa 1998
James Dean, circa 1954
Harrison Ford, circa 1980
Usher, circa 2004
Bruce Springsteen, circa 1975
Denzel Washington, circa 1987
Rock Hudson, circa 1957
Cristiano Ronaldo, circa 2010

The pretty boys don't do it for me, but I gave Ronaldo his due because every woman in the world thirsts for his manliness.

Paul Newman. Any year.

Idris Elba.

Jon Hamm is off my list. I can't get the picture of him with a beard out of my head.

Harrison Ford and Bruce Springsteen would never be on my list.

Now we know what Versatile and his "girlfriends" do for fun on Saturday nights.

 

[Riptide]

Nick Punto got hosed.

 

[HC]

Clooney 1998? He gets better and better every year.

 

[MankyJimy]

Jeter should be on that list, and he should occupy two spots: one for the 'young' Jeter circa 1997, and another for the older Jeter of today.

Clooney 1998? He gets better and better every year.

Your thing for old guys is concerning.

There is no substitute for experience. Besides ... he's waaaay younger than JR.

 

[Songbird]

Bradley Cooper, when cleaned up, is top 5 on the list.

I'd guess George Clooney had some experience by 1998.

And HC, let me know if you ever decide to change directions on the age scale.

You forgot the Ryans, both Reynolds and Gosling.

And, me.

I didn't forget them, but Ryan Reynolds is too bro, Ryan Gosling was a very close cut but is too Luke Wilson and MisterCreosote is on the Muggsy Bogues List Of Men Too Short To Be Called Anything But "Aww, He's Cute."

At least you didn't say Rex and Rob.

About a decade ago my wife asked me, "Which celebrity female do you think is the best looking?" My answer, which has probably changed since then, was Reese Witherspoon.

Apparently, that was a good answer. There was an article in one of the women's magazines that said you can judge the kind of person someone is based on how they answer that. I guess the thinking was that someone who answered Witherspoon or Julia Roberts or Scarlett Johansson or Sandra Bullock was a better answer than saying Pamela Anderson or a porn star.

So if your girlfriend ever asks you which celebrity you think is the best looking, Bree Olson might not be the best answer.

This thread is about men. What does your wife's magazine say about Peter North?

Usher, whose babies you apparently want to have, is one inch taller than me.

And I don't know what "too bro" means, but Ryan Reynolds is as close to perfect as Canadians get.

Van Wilder residuals probably sour me on Reynolds as a particularly good-looking guy. He seems mostly abs. I like him as an actor.

 

[Gehrig]

No Elvis in around 1955?

How about Leonardo DiCaprio?

I feel like you're my other half. Except there was about a three-year period where Harrison Ford was hot.
