Am I the only woman who doesn’t fancy Tom Hardy?

He’s a perfectly decent looking bloke, and I am sure he personally has many fine qualities, but he doesn’t do it for me. And I find his voice - or at least his narration voice in Predators - very unusual. Reminds me of a slightly fake, posh David Beckham.

Grubby Hardy 😏

The thing is, I'm not entirely sure what you mean by these pics... are you an admirer showing how hot he is, or non-admirer highlighting his unattractiveness? 🙂

😅 isn't it bizarre how we fancy different people? To me the man is absolute perfection that I really can't understand how people can't see it. Attraction is a weird thing.

No, I don’t fancy him either. It’s mainly his massive lips.
I think it’s a PR thing with some actors. They whip up some hype about an up-and-coming actor and they declare him a lady magnet. Then others jump on the bandwagon and a myth is created.

Of course not, people can fancy who they want. Bit odd to start a whole thread about how you don’t fancy a bloke - the lady doth protest too much, methinks!

😂 I was watching Predators and googled to find out who the narrator was with the slightly odd voice!

That's how I feel about Colin Farrell and my mind is blown when people disagree 🤣

No, who is he? The name sounds a bit familiar.

MintyGreenDreams · 12/12/2022 10:38

I think he doesn't look overly good looking on screen but i get the feeling that if i saw him in real life id want to climb him like a tree.

SusanPerbCallMeSue · 12/12/2022 10:47

He's ok. I liked him in Peaky Blinders and Venom, but I don't fancy him. Which is fine, as I'm quite sure he doesn't fancy me either. Or maybe he does and is devastated by my rejection. Grin

MurderAtTheBeautyPageant · 12/12/2022 10:50

He doesn't do it for me. The lips are a bit overly pouty.

Having said that, I suspect he may be pretty charismatic in person so if I ever meet him I reserve the right to change my mind.

No OP you are not alone

Who is Tom Hardy?

cakedelights · 12/12/2022 11:09

He lives near my mums house in a village as his wife is from that area !
And seems to be very down to earth & a humble person regardless of his celebrity status.

Noluthando · 12/12/2022 11:11

I don't find him attractive either. When he did cbeebies bed time story I watched it but didn't think he was very good at it.

That really made me laugh 😂

'Fuck all those Hollywood movies Tom, you were a bit shit at bedtime stories! 😒'

🤣

Oh god, yes please!

ReadtheReviews · 12/12/2022 11:33

Wouldnt look twice at him. Dont get it.
Jason Momoa on the other hand...

Monsteraobliqua · 12/12/2022 11:35

I'm sure he's very nice but not my type

VioletLemon · 12/12/2022 11:38

Agree. To be honest, I find him completely false, odd and looks in need of a good dentist and shower. I think he's overrated.

FindingMeno · 12/12/2022 11:48

I had no idea who he is till I googled.
He's OK, I guess.

AutumnScream · 12/12/2022 11:53

What a grim thread. Lets all gather together to cast aspersions and talk about how unattractive a man is. Yay. A man who hasnt done anything to you. Imagine if this was about a woman.

OwlingAround · 12/12/2022 11:54

He isn’t my type at all

LindorDoubleChoc · 12/12/2022 12:00

God no! I find everything about him rather ick-making.

Sunnytwobridges · 12/12/2022 12:08

i love his lips they look like they can do all sorts of good things to me 😂 I don’t like thin lips.

I take your point to a degree, but his profession puts him in the public eye and he is touted as a heartthrob.

I heard his voice for the first time today - unless I have seen films and not realised he was one of the actors - and was astonished that the sound of him didn’t match the heartthrob image that’s presented.
