For the men.... What non-traditionally good-looking women do you find hot?

[devilgrrl]

besides myself...


:eyes::+:crazy::silly::eyes:

[ForrestGump]

1. I'll have to think about it, 'cos the very process of determining relative

heat is confounded by heat-producing elements that may defy even my operational definition of what is (externally) conventionally beautiful, pretty, cute, etc.

Tough question. And why do I feel like breaking out into a chorus of "To All The Girls I've Loved Before"?

[Bhaisahab]

2. sonia gandhi...

i know she's old enough to be my mum, but i think she's very good looking

[LowerManhattanite]

3. Ellen Barkin...

Something about that...odd twist to her mouth.

[Devil Dog Dem]

11. Yep! I think Ellen Barkin is HOT

Although I haven't seen her in awhile so she may not have aged well.

[mitchum]

89. She has aged very well!

[mitchum]

90. She is the first woman I thought of when I saw the question...

someone once described her as "looking like she had been hit in the face with a frying pan" Ha! A frying pan full of sex appeal.

[Twillig]

98. Hell Yes.

She made Sea of Love worth watching, and teamed up with D. Quaid, made a possible shit(big easy) film pretty fun to watch.

She's dead sexy.

[TheWizardOfMudd]

4. That chick in Terminator 3

Not the Terminator, the other one with the crypt key "basement."

[Bombtrack]

7. Claire Danes

not into her

[TheWizardOfMudd]

127. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!!

:cry:

[physioex]

5. Maria Bartiromo...

She is modest about herself...atleast on camera, and her eyes are very nice. She doesn't have the perfect nose, but I can overlook that...

[XNASA]

33. I've heard that Joey Ramone had a crush on her too.

That would have been some couple.

[phillybri]

63. I'm w/ you there...Maria is gorgeous...

Very unique look...

[Feanorcurufinwe]

6. If I thought someone was hot, would I necessarily know

that they were 'non-traditionally good-looking' ? I'm not really sure what that means.

[Tom Kitten]

8. I like red -headed women with brains and big...

...sensitive eyes. All else is moot. Sigourney Weaver is perhaps the ultimate...

[dbt]

9. Drooool!

Oh, HELL yes! What countfloyd says!!!!

:bounce:
dbt

[leftofthedial]

100. susan sarandon

would be in that category

[Tom Kitten]

111. Most definitely!

yes indeed she does!


Also, from an earlier era, Susan Hayward

and Carole Lombard

[HornBuckler]

10. I Like Those Mousy Petite Nerd Girls

I Lose It For 'Em - Especially, If They Are Into Sci-Fi, Horror, And Video Games Then I'd Propose -

Still Single And Haven't Proposed To Anyone Yet, Are They Out There?

[Dogmudgeon]

13. Yes, they're out there

But they're all sleeping with tall, bearded, red-haired guys with names like Digger, Jailbait, Frodo, and Wyldehawke the Wyzyrd.

Fannish girls are impossible. Stick to mundanes who keep their copies of Anne Rice's books hidden behind the box of birth control gear in their nightstand drawer.

--bkl
Been there ... (haven't) done that ...

[hyphenate]

52. Not so!

Many of us have remained quietly single and prefer the company of cats to the company of some of the men out there.

Come to WorldCon this year, and you'll see what I mean. :)

[Dogmudgeon]

83. Do I have a Con story for YOU!

My romantic experiences with Fangirls have been uniformly negative, but that's not to say all female Fen are that way. Digger, Jailbait, Frodo and Wyvernhawke have all been quite happy with their fifteen or twenty non-feline friends. And who am I to criticize happy, loving, polyamo(u)rous ... uh ... tribes? The world needs more love. And more sex couldn't hurt, either. And I'll give anyone a chance; I just won't give away my keys, my bank card, my reputation, my sanity, or my heart.

The cat thing? Cats are very often substitutes for sexual and romantic company, and it applies to all genders. I like cats, but cat fetishists creep me out.

Yes, I have quite a story of human perversity at S-F Conventions. But it's long and detailed and requires audiovisual materials and access to Nexis/Lexis and prior clearance from my probation officer. Incidentally, if you're a Roman Catholic, you'll have to go to confession before you can take Communion again. So plan accordingly!

So, I won't be going to WorldCon. It would be kind of like Michael Fay going to a spankers' convention in Singapore. Which, come to think of it, might be even more fun than a S-F Convention.

--bkl
Lah!

[mede8er]

26. Librarian types......

I'm putty in their hands.....specially when the glasses come off....AYYYYYYYYYYYY........

EDIT: Of course the driving force is the myriad of knowledge they possess and their low profile demeanor.......

[GOPisEvil]

12. Tina Fey.

Something about that "librarian with the evil streak" does it for me. :D

[sus]

27. she's a lesbian!

[Richardo]

30. You wish!

:D

[GOPisEvil]

35. Did Lynne ask her?

:shrug:

[sus]

57. no, but I know several lesbians who are hot for her, too. heeey..maybe YOU

are a lesbian!

[GOPisEvil]

68. And trapped in a man's body!

I've heard of that happening!

[Commendatori]

28. Yes, yes, yes.

Evil, funny, and looks good in granny glasses. Nice.

[Richardo]

29. I second Tina...

:loveya: :thumbsup:

[Dogmudgeon]

102. Don't forget Rachel Dratch

Fay's long-time improv partner.

Dratch usually plays the old lady or the plain girl on SNL, but she's probably one of the best improvisers in the country.

She may not be the stuff of which va-va-vooms are made, but she'll be cute until she's about 100. By which time, she'll probably have trained millions of improvisational comedians ... each of them obedient to her command ... waiting for the order to be given to establish their reign of terror as Rachel Dratch seizes control of the galaxy.

With pigtails.

--bkl

[Misunderestimator]

14. Queen Latifah!

(I usually ignore "for the men" or "for the women"... I'm an equal opportunity poster.) :)

[BiggJawn]

16. Oh, yeah, she spins my propeller beanine...

What magazine cover did she do recently? Oooooh, bay-beeeeeee!

[Misunderestimator]

17. And in Chicago..... Hummmmmmmm aaahhhhh nnnnuuuhhhhh

And in "Bringing Down the House" Oh yeah!

[Redhead488]

19. Just

YUCK!

[Misunderestimator]

21. Well, that wasn't very nice.... I'm not criticizing anyone else's choices.

What's up with that?

[Redhead488]

46. I'm not criticizing

Your opinion and taste are valid for you.

To me, she's YUCK

[Misunderestimator]

53. Yuck is a criticism...

But you're entitled to criticize whatever you like. Makes no difference to me.

[Redhead488]

69. I'm saying yuck

to her looks! Not your choice! Sorry!

[Misunderestimator]

71. Well, then yuck to whoever you choose too...

:bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

What's wrong with her looks anyway, how could this possibly be "yuck:"

[Redhead488]

73. Not my cuppa

She just turns my stomach.

[Dookus]

94. she's beautiful

how can there be any doubt?

And in Chicago? Lordy lord!

[Misunderestimator]

99. Thank you! Good to see I'm not to only one (or two)...

She's drop-dead gorgeous, in my opinion.

[Dookus]

103. well

I'm a big ol' homo, but I'd do her.

She's not just physically beautiful, but her personality is quite compelling. She's just hot by any reasonable definition.

[Misunderestimator]

105. LOL.... then coming from you, that is high praise...

I don't think I could reach across the gender lines with such facility. :evilgrin:

[Dookus]

107. oh c'mon

admit it... you'd do Johnny Depp in a minute. :evilgrin:

[Misunderestimator]

108. He's a cutie... but he'd have to undergo surgery for me...

I don't think he'd make that kind of commitment. :)

[mac56]

15. Bonnie Hunt.

I think she's hot.



photocred: media.abc.com

[Richardo]

24. Me too, mac56

:loveya:

[cleofus1]

18. good question mystery girl...

i'll have to think



the one to the far left....she's kinda neat...saw her in scream 3 and princess diaries...she always plays a nerd...but a very likeable one

[killbotfactory]

122. Heather Matarazzo

did you see Welcome to the Dollhouse? good times

[XNASA]

20. Besides you? Let me think........

I'm stickin' with Samantha Brown. ;-)

[UGABrother]

37. you don't think she's conventionally hot?

.

[XNASA]

44. Wow! You like her that much, huh?

She's short and kinda pear-shaped. Her head's a little big. Her extremities are short as well.

This subject has come up in the Lounge many times before and I always say Samantha Brown, but you're the first one to ever comment that you thought that she was conventionally hot. You must really like her. ;-)

Cute, desirable and attractive certainly.

But not 'hot'. To me anyway.

[UGABrother]

54. I'm not familiar with her,

so I was just going by the picture you posted. Her face is certainly hot anyway.

[XNASA]

59. She has a show on the Travel Channel.

http://travel.discovery.com/fansites/samanthabrown/samanthabrown.html

It's kinda fun to see her jetting all over the World to exotic locals, sampling the local flavor.

But sadly, she's always alone. And I want to be there for her. If my wife would let me. :cry:

[Lestat]

22. Uh....lemme think....non-traditionally good-looking...

that I find hot? Well...if they're not traditionally hot, then I don't find them hot. :shrug: I may find them cute, but not hot.

[lojasmo]

23. Raechel Ray

She COOKS!

Also Thandie newton.

[Beware the Beast Man]

60. I second Rachael Ray

What a cutie...:loveya:

[phillybri]

61. I'll third Rachael Ray and raise you Larry's wife...

...from "Curb Your Enthusiasm"...

[NewHampshireDem]

72. A good looking woman who likes to eat ... what could be better?!?

And she's just so damn perky!

[Richardo]

75. Pic!

[lojasmo]

77. Mmmmm.....

pancetta and Raechel Ray. Who could ask for anything more?

[sniffa]

25. bijou phiLLips

[Richardo]

32. Janeane Garofalo

..although I'm still having trouble getting on board with the bleached hair. :shrug:

[Philosophy]

121. Me too

and I agree about the hair.

[av8rdave]

34. Alice from "The Brady Bunch"

running joke with my wife!

[Richardo]

36. And now presenting, in its 25th year, my crush on Jan Smithers...

:loveya:

[GOPisEvil]

38. Yes!!! Remember the episode where she spent the night at Johnny's?

She wore his t-shirt the next day. Grrrrrr-woof!!!! :bounce:

[Richardo]

40. I'm *still* hyperventilating...

Good times! ;-)

[BiggJawn]

50. "This? oh, I just grabbed the first thing off the floor..."

Yeah....why James Brolin ever ditched her is beyond me...But then, who knows? Maybe she's Hell-on-wheels to live with....

[RandomKoolzip]

42. Bailey!

I was in love with Bailey as a kid. Good choice!

[XNASA]

48. Ooh. That's a good one.

I remember having a crush on Marcia Strassman, Gabe Kaplan's TV wife on Welcome Back Kotter as well.

I wonder whatever happened to her?

[Richardo]

49. Yes! Marcia and Jan could have been sisters...

Me gustan mucho!

[XNASA]

55. You gotta see this!!

Marcia Strassman, May 17th 2003!!

Here's the link. Doesn't seem possible.

[Richardo]

58. Woof!

Thanks for THAT, XNASA! :thumbsup:

[ACK]

39. Jeneane Garofolo

She is not a traditional beauty but oh I got the hots for her.

[Zolok]

41. Janeane Garofalo...

I wanna nuzzle her neck until she begs for mercy...or something like that.
Mouthy italian chicks who went to catholic college just turn me on that way...

96. I'm with you there:)

[skypilot]

51. Sarah Jessica Parker

[Richardo]

56. Mary Ann, of course...

[GumboYaYa]

62. Personally, I think women who are intelligent, strong and

comfortable inside their own skin are extremely sexy regardless of their exterior appearance.

Two who come to mind right away are Oprah and Hillary Clinton.

[Misunderestimator]

64. I agree wholeheartedly....

When I lived in upstate NY, I sent Hillary a bouquet on the day she moved into her house in Chappaqua... she sent me a lovely thank you note. :).... Added plus was that I got on their list for Christmas cards, even though it was only the last year.

[arwalden]

65. Bette Midler

[TX-RAT]

74. You stole my thunder

She's still great.

[arwalden]

78. Think Of It As Thundering Together...

66. Cheryl Hines

From Curb Your "Enthusiasm"...

[Ganja Ninja]

67. Christina Ricci

[Wilber_Stool]

86. Nice tits n/t

[Westegg]

97. Yep! Ricci is BEYOND sexy in "Buffalo 66" (n/t)

[ScreamingMeemie]

109. She is a creep though. Her boyfriend lives a few houses down

from my brother in Silver Lake and she always parks her ugly little, not taken care of Porsche at the end of their driveway, hanging over a little bit. If you've ever been in Silver Lake, up on the hill, you know how this would make it just about impossible for my brother to get down (very steep) his driveway and out into the street. She cares nothing for the trouble the neighbors go through. That and they are loud and obnoxious. :hi:

[Speck Tater]

70. Anna Paquin

Rogue in X-Men, Crazed junky-prostitute in All The Rage, seductive student in The 25th Hour, goofy girlfriend in Buffalo Soldiers, etc. etc.

[ACK]

79. I'll back that up.... she is soooo cute and hot

Really lovely.

[patcox2]

76. Linda Ellerbee, back when. Emanuelle Beart, still.

And lots of french actresses who are unconventional in that they are older, yet still beautiful, without desperately and pitifully clinging to the teenager-little girl look that americans call "beautiful."

[Insider]

80. s. epatha merkerson, cch pounder

alfre woodard, kandi alexander, lynn whitfield

[TrogL]

81. k. d. lang

[Colin Ex]

82. Hmm. Let's see.

The cello player from Cursive is hot. Gretta Cohen, I think her name is.

-c

[LastKnight]

84. amy lee of evanesence...

i like the whole goth thing shes got going... thats hardly traditional.

-LK

[PittPoliSci]

112. i go in on that one!

don't know about goth, but she sure is smoking.

[Lestat]

125. Hell yeah!

She's one of two chicks of whom I like right now for celebs...the other being Keira Knightly. :loveya:

[Wilber_Stool]

85. Sandra Bernhard

And I don't know why.

[robertpaulsen]

87. Is Lil Kim non-traditional enough?

In any case I find her extremely hot. If anyone out there can post a hot pic of her, I'd be EXTREMELY grateful.

[robertpaulsen]

93. GIMME THAT LIL KIM PIC DAMMIT!

[killbotfactory]

123. try google images, you can see her thingies

[Mr. McD]

88. I am not sure what you mean by non-traditionally good-looking women

But hot is hot.






Sofia Milos

[mitchum]

91. Alfre Woodard is stunning

[mitchum]

92. Lucinda Williams has to be the world's sexiest 50 year old alcoholic...

she has incredible genes.

[leftofthedial]

101. lu does it for me big time

and I mean BIG time

[King Of Paperboys]

95. How funny. What was the topic?

I keep seeing traditionally GORGEOUS women named here. I thought the topic was supposed to be NON-traditionally good-looking women.

Women like...

JOAN CUSACK: What man doesn't want to bang her? But who would call her "beautiful?"

AMY SEDARIS: If you haven't seen her interviewed, you don't know what you're missing. I came in my pants. Seriously. It was a mess.

MOLLY SHANNON: You just KNOW she's noisy in bed.

ROSIE: Yeah, I've heard all the lesbian stories. I'm not buying it. I've had a boner for her since "Exit to Eden."

[Dogmudgeon]

104. Such a tender, sensitive man - AND - The Sultry Sisters Cusack

I'm sure Joan shares your passion for the occasional good bang. That toned, fit body is just made to be treated like something you'd find on sale at Home Depot.

:evilgrin:

Susie Cusack is also pretty attractive but she's more of a techie. There's something about a girl in painter's overalls -- and paint -- that fully evokes the primal masculinity that I naturally exude.

One of my favorite fantasies involves Susie, several rolls of duct tape, and the cast and crew of Miss Saigon.

However, John Cusack has has cost me more smockage than any other movie star in Hollywood, even Leonardo, Brad, or Ben. I have learned, through painful experience, to avoid John Cusack movies until a certain level of intimacy has been achieved. Which makes a tête-à-tête with Susie or Joan Cusack (or both) that much more attractive -- no competition from John.

Amy Sedaris I could definitely see being involved with. After all, her character Jeri is a lot like most of the psychotic women I've found myself in bed with (usually after the Roofies have worn off and I've returned to consciousness and she's informed me that we were married by an extraterrestrial in an abandoned liquor store).

"Banging" and "Head" are just two of the tender words of love that have been used a lot by my girlfriends ... as in, "Why are you banging your head? You're gonna put a hole in my wall!"

--bkl
Dumped for an apartment deposit.

[Dookus]

106. Joan Cusack

is adorable.

and Amy Sedaris is beyond adorable. Why she's not a huge star is beyond me - she's gorgeous, outrageously funny, and smart as a whip. Somebody will get rich by creating a TV show for her.

[Wapsie B]

113. Yeah, Joan is hot!

I find myself gazing at the US Cellular ads she's in.

[maveric]

110. Amanda Plummer.

Played some sexy roles and is the daughter of Christopher Plummer.
She was also Ellen James in The World According to Garp.

[FranzFerdinand]

114. Judith Regan

i might even go so far as to say Ann Coulter ;)

[Misunderestimator]

115. Eewwww... Coulter? Why'd you go and do that?

[FranzFerdinand]

116. heheh

i'm not sure... kill me?

[Misunderestimator]

117. No... just feel sorry for you... n/t

[Bombero1956]

118. Bette Midler

I've always had a thing for her.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

119. Glenn Close

To me she was and is one of the sexiest actresses of modern times.

I would also have to go with Elaine Paige, Kim Cattrall, Beth Broderick and Caroline Rhea

[MirrorAshes]

120. Allyson Hannigan

yeah, the flute girl from American Pie. I don't know what it is about her, but she is just extremely appealing to me. I dunno though, I've always had a thing for geek girls :P

[ACK]

128. She is sooo completely and totally hot !

She did this school girl themed spread in FHM that was just wrong but so good.

[tcfrogs]

124. Penelope Ann Miller

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

126. I LOVE Jeannie Ohm

http://www.gogomag.com/jo/

Correspondant and sometimes News Anchor for MSNBC. I think all women are beautiful, but I have a special obsession despite myself for Asian women (who are not the blonde, blue-eyed traditional leading ladies or cover girls in our culture) and to me Jeannie is one of the most gorgeous women on TV.
