I have a friend staying with me and last night we got to chatting about who are the hottest men around we are both in or 30s and should have been having more mature conversations

I strongly feel that the 'hot criminal' Jeremy Meeks is the hottest man on the planet and she believes he is second, after Channing Tatum boak

www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/31740423/hot-criminal-jeremy-meeks-gets-modelling-contract

So shall we just close this discussion once and for all and declare Jeremy Meeks the winner?

You think a convicted criminal is the "hottest man on the planet"? Hmm Ok then....

SqueezyCheeseWeasel · 30/07/2015 11:35

Tattooed muscle Marys aren't my type.

Squeezy I'm not usually into tattoos but I can get over it in this case. The teardrop tattoo by his eye is super-hot Blush

He got lucky with one decent picture where yeah, he looks ok.
If you look at "other" pics of him, he's really , really, nothing special at all.

Yarp · 30/07/2015 14:39

Nope

See arrogant-looking people like him every day.

Yarp · 30/07/2015 14:40

Facial tattoos are an indicator of psychopathy

Yarp · 30/07/2015 14:42

Mind you, to be fair, all models are told to pose in that sort of Sod-You pose, so that's not really his fault.

He has nice lips. I will go now...

TiredOfBeingTooSoft · 30/07/2015 14:43

I don't usually go for darker skinned, or heavily tattooed men. But in Jeremy's case I'll make an exception. He's a beautiful man !

TiredOfBeingTooSoft · 30/07/2015 14:45

Also OP, if you're so inclined, he has naked pics online too my gay friend pointed me in that direction once

redshoeblueshoe · 30/07/2015 14:54

I thought the teardrop tattoo was to show he has murdered someone

MrsTerryPratchett · 30/07/2015 14:58

Jesse Williams Similar looking in terms of 'type' but moral, outspoken, interesting and you get to be, if you choose the name, Mrs Williams, not Mrs Meeks.

The teardrop can mean many things, not all very scary, some very sad.

Stratter5 · 30/07/2015 15:13

His personality rules him out imo. Pretty soon the bad stuff will show in his face.

camsie · 30/07/2015 15:18

Meeks is seriously hot.

steff13 · 30/07/2015 15:20

I'll admit that I think he's hot. And I did look up the nude photos Blush; good for him is all I can say about that. Wink

EponasWildDaughter · 30/07/2015 15:20

So (from the website) ''In the last 10 years Meeks has been arrested for theft, fraud and forgery.'' and now he has been arrested and jailed for possessing a gun.

He got his modeling contract after his mugshot was seen. I thought that crime wasn't meant to pay? I wonder if his victims think he's ''beautiful inside and out''? Hmm

ladyflower23 · 30/07/2015 15:25

he is surprisingly hot

PavlovaPalaver · 30/07/2015 15:26

He reminds me of young Freddie Ljunberg. Swoon.

Bailey101 · 30/07/2015 15:36

redshoeblueshoe the teardrops are usually because they've lost someone close, like a sibling, to gang violence.

Bailey101 · 30/07/2015 15:40

I just googled the teardrop tattoos and redshoeblueshoe you're right too!! Apparently in some regions it shows that they've killed someone and in other areas, it means that they were someone's bitch in prison Confused

MrsTerryPratchett · 30/07/2015 15:42

it means that they were someone's bitch in prison I get very worried about that expression. We are talking about coerced sex, after all. I know I'll get shit about being PC but it makes me very sad. I used to work with offenders.

Bailey101 · 30/07/2015 15:53

That's a shame that it makes you sad, but it's a term that's used by the people who give and receive these sorts if tattoos in these circumstances. Nobody ever held another person down and said 'I'm going to tattoo your face because I hold a deep regard for you and your feelings are important to me'. It's a common colloquialism that is used throughout the prison system, and it's not going to change because it offends someone who these people are never going to lay eyes on.

My repeating it, as part of an explanation as to what something symbolises, is not an act of approval or anything close, it is merely repetition of those that know first hand about these things.

I've seen the naked pictures Blush Grin

Glad some of you agree that he is, in fact, smoking hot. For those that don't - you need to come back with a counter offer!!

I disagree with a PP that he was just lucky in this picture- all of his pictures online show him looking hot.

MrsTerryPratchett · 30/07/2015 15:58

it's not going to change because it offends someone who these people are never going to lay eyes on I literally just wrote that I worked with offenders so, yes, I have spent a significant amount of time setting eyes on the perpetrators and victims of prison rape. Just because they call the victim of their sexual violence a 'bitch', doesn't mean anyone else should. Nasty, misogynist word anyway.

Yarp the only tattoos I like are face and hand tattoos Blush

MrsTerry Hmm, Jesse Williams looks too straight-laced. Also he's kind of got a fat head.
