Which celebrity do you (respectfully) thirst for? (Title edited by MNHQ at request of OP)

Help me, in my perimenopausal, disturbingly sex-crazed state, by telling me which celebrity you find the hottest.

Mine is Pedro Pascal. I would let that man do terrible, terrible things to me.

Another in the queue for Pedro Pascal at the moment. I also have a massive crush on Sarah Paulson and only recently found out that they're best friends.

Others are:

Tyson Ritter from All American Rejects

Joe Marler, the rugby player. His eyes are gorgeous and he looks like he could pick me up easily, I'm not exactly tiny.

Shemar Moore (literally the only reason I watch SWAT)

Taika Waititi

Horrible way to talk about anyone, in my opinion

@Pegfriedrice

what?

discussing who you fancy the pants of is hardly horrible.

the phrase isn't one I would use, but it's hardly horrible.

why open a thread just to moan??

Time for my oft repeated offer to change the name to one more acceptable if somebody is and to tell me how.

Wow. NOT a context I'd heard before. Suffice to say, not my intended meaning.

@Tiredanddistracted

of course you weren't.

it's not a phrase I'd use as it does sound a bit off to me, but it was clear what you meant!!

This thread feels weird and wrong in 2023. It makes me sick to hear men talking about women like this.

@OriginalUsername2

oh for the love of god!

Discussing who you fancy is not new, not weird & not wrong.

if it 'makes you sick' the very easy option is to not open threads that's are going to trigger you

Mycatisfatafatcat · 13/04/2023 17:29

I’m not offended, I’m just pointing out it’s a phrase with horrible connotations. Discussing who you find sexually attractive is fine but discussing ‘having a go on’ someone positions them as without choice, which isn’t a good look.

MurderAtTheBeautyPageant · 13/04/2023 17:30

Harry Styles must be amazingly charismatic in person. He seems to bewitch people.

I think he looks like a nice enough guy (you never hear that he's acted like an egotistical wanker) but I don't get the major lust so many people have for him.

MrsMurphyIWish · 13/04/2023 17:32

I’m a feminist and don’t find this language ugly.

What I find ugly: self ID, gender pay imbalance

Discussing what people find aesthetically pleasing - no.

If anyone watched Narcos, PP was gorgeous Boyd Holbrook ain’t bad-sexy voice. Would drive me wild.

I had a very 'interesting' dream about Mr Pascal, he was dressed as the Mandalorian and I had to open him up like a can of corned beef to get my hands on him. This is most definitely the way!

🤣🤣🤣🤣

SunshineLollipopsAndRainbows · 13/04/2023 17:35

I don’t know his name & he’s not a celebrity but he was one of the mountain guides on the Comic Relief trek challenge. Graham someone. Oh my goodness he could share my sleeping bag anytime! Obviously a really lovely caring guy too.

SunshineLollipopsAndRainbows · 13/04/2023 17:35

Not even sure it was Graham but yes please!

Thekormachameleon · 13/04/2023 17:35

New name: “fitsters” or am I showing my age?

TinaTotal · 13/04/2023 17:37

I came to say Pedro Pascal.

I have a un-healthy obsession with him 😅😅

i agree, things like “x is good looking, nice, sexy” I think is fine. Phrases like “have a go on”
and a fair few others are, whilst not offensive, certainly objectifying.

as I said, a bloke discussing good looking women with his mates would still probably be called creepy on here, one discussing which he wanted a go on would be described as pretty awful

Sebastian Stan...
Then Sebastian Stan again as Bucky Barnes...

Nothing pacifically (😂 ) and I'm sure she's very nice if a bit navel gazey like many slebs. She's just very definitely Not Captain Marvel. The hair and makeup are such that she doesn't even really look that much like Captain Marvel.

I had to unfollow Chris Hemsworth before I went off him as well but I think that was more jealousy over his ridiculously perfect life than anything else.

Don’t be too jealous of the perfect life-seems he has to live with a massively increased risk of Alzheimer’s after doing gene tests for a documentary.

I'm linking this thread the next time someone posts that their DP commented on an attractive woman and he gets called a misogynistic arsehole.

@slashlover

yep because there's absolutely no difference between your partner commenting to YOU how hot another woman is & a bunch of people anonymously commenting on who they find attractive/would shag.

Interesting. Do the bloke on the WhatsApp group with hi mates talking about who they’d shag is fine as long as the wife doesn’t see it?
