Bon jovi, without a doubt.

You do realise this discussion isn’t for their benefit, surely? This thread is for our enjoyment, not theirs.

Are straight women not allowed to enjoy looking at / thinking about men we find sexually attractive? Why do we have to deny ourselves that pleasure?

I’m glad you enjoy gardening but it doesn’t make you morally or intellectually superior to someone who enjoys whiling away five minutes on looking at attractive men with no shirts on. If you don’t get any pleasure from physically attractive men, that’s completely fine, but no need to try to guilt-trip other women about it. We’re allowed to experience attraction. It’s a normal human impulse.

I also did some gardening yesterday. Then I went for a run. Then I relaxed with a book. Then I whiled away a happy few minutes reminiscing with a friend via WhatsApp before the football about a French footballer we both fancied the pants off in the 90s. It was a pleasant interlude in my day.

What's your definition of feminine here? A very hairy chest does not suggest femininity to me.

I get what the poster means. Facially JBJ does have a slightly 'feminine' look. Someone described him and the young Diane Lane as looking like a very attractive lesbian couple. And now I can't unsee it.

Gosh, they were both so feminine.

God forbid women should be allowed to have fun

I'm all for a bit of fun. But this is just silly.

Ooh, is this going to turn into a thread filled with pictures of fit rock stars?

I certainly hope so.

Here’s Extreme’s Nuno Bettencourt. You’re welcome.

Axl then! But now older and looking back at the photos jbj. Axl had a very raw sexy thang going on… plus was a massive fan in the day.

I noticed that the really rugged, "phwoar" types in their twenties often seem to age the worst. Fast forward twenty or thirty years and they've somehow acquired an odd old auntie face. I do wonder whether that's more lifestyle than genetics.
And the nerds just keep getting sexier and sexier with age. The pretty boy brigade, like Bon Jovi, seem to fall somewhere in the middle.

I agree i think its highly unlikrly that either Axl Rose or JBJ will be on mumsnet 😂

Imagine both of them reading this thread right now and being massively pissed at each other's ex-groupies

Please settle an argument. Who was better looking? Axel or bon Jovi?

Two greasy, sweaty rawwwk yucks.

Neither.

Because if it is, I give you Evan Dando.

Jon Bon Pony. Better looking than either of them.

Show quote history

You’re not ‘all for a bit of fun’ at all.

You’ve come on to a thread for women who are having a bit of fun precisely to tell them why they shouldn’t be having fun because it’s not the kind of fun you personally approve of.

If you pop up on an entirely harmless and lighthearted thread to piss on other people’s chips, you are not, by definition, ‘all for a bit of fun’.

Anyway. To get back to the topic at hand, has nobody mentioned Peter Steele from Type O Negative yet?

I would have climbed that man like a tree in his heyday.

I"m not quite sure what you mean.

But yes im busy catching up on MN after a quite busy gardening day.

I just feel the last thing guys who already think they are God's gift to women need is a group of sycophants pandering to their egos by debatung how nice looking they are.

Did anyone fancy James Hetfield?

I find him more attractive now than when he was younger

Sartre · 19/07/2026 09:05

Conventionally speaking, Bon Jovi definitely is and his son looks just like him. I always preferred slash to Axl.

Duff McKagan was the best looking member of GnR. I think there needs to be a return to men looking like this! (said in lighthearted fun before anyone jumps on me)

Ooo yes I fancied duff too, he had a sexy voice to go with it
