To not get the Tom Hardy obsession?

[Sillysausage123]

I'm 37 so maybe this is why I just don't get the obsession every female seems to have with Tom Hardy.
He just looks like an ordinary guy to me but the amount of Facebook memes and posts my female friends post about him and I don't get it. What am I missing?

I'm 39 and I luffs him.

He is also 39....perfect match

I'm a similar age to you. I totally get the obsession - he is quite normal but utterly lovely.

People like him. you and others don't. What's so confusing to you?

I'd take Nick Clegg over him any day. We all have our types.

I didn't get it, then I watched Legend and everything changed.

Have you seen much he has acted in? I don't mean the more commercial Hollywood things, some of the lesser known things. He is a special kind of actor to me... he's intense. There is something quite disconcerting about him and a little unnerving. Then in real life he's smiley and shy and likes dogs. There are some films he is repulsive in - lawless and revanent but his acting is in my opinion, brilliant.
I do find him very attractive and also I am fascinated by him but I don't perve all over him on meme's.

I can't explain it op. His face just makes me all fluttery in the ovaries.

YABU

YAB massively U

I don't get it either. Ah well everyone's different I suppose.

Tbh I don't get Ryan Gosling. He has the expression of a paper towel.

Don't get the fuss about his looks but he loves dogs. This vid should melt all hearts!

Yanbu, don't get it either!

I was just thinking today how lovely he is. I'm not overly fussed about his looks but he's not bad looking by any stretch of the imagination. And he seems so so nice. And he picks good roles. The first thing I saw him in was Wuthering Heights. How could you not fall for him just a bit?

Not my type but I appreciate that I'm in a minority! Most people think I'm the one with unusual taste in though so it's probably me

I'm 40, I don't get it either, but so what? Each to their own.

I'm 28 and don't get it either, wouldn't look twice if I saw him walking down the street.

I Googled him to work out who he was the other day and most people that everyone fancies i "get" even if I don't fancy them myself. This one I didn't. He looks kind of ordinary!

I could list all the ones I do list after hmmmmmm.

Its not his looks. But there is definitely something compelling about him/the roles he plays. I thought it was just that, then I saw the Cbeebies bedtime story, and I realised that comes across as thoroughly pleasant when he isn't acting. Plus he chased down and caught a motorbike thief yesterday which means he's a bit of a hero IRL too.

I agree OP, don't get what the fuss is about, but I've never seen him in anything. I used to dislike the Ryan gosling obsession until a friend made me watch a few of his films, now I'm in love! So maybe it would be the same with Tom Hardy but I'm not bothered enough to see for myself tbh. Give me Idris Elba any day, my mother and I are both obsessed!

Tom Hardy makes my ovaries happy and my knickers fall down.

There is just something about his acting that I enjoy, he tends to be very serious and intimidating whatever the role. He can also convey a lot of intense emotion and it makes you believe he's that type of person. Whereas IRL he's a lovely family man, two kids, loves dogs and reads bedtime stories.

I also like the fact that he wasn't/isn't shy about his past struggles with drugs and alcohol and grew up leading a relatively normal life.

If you like seeing him half naked I'd suggesting watching Warrior, although it's about mma fighters so may not be everyones cup of tea.

No, I don't get it either.

I don't get the fuss but I also haven't seen any of his films. Then again I do have a thing for Ricky Gervais

I'd rather have Louis Theroux tbh.
