Everytime he comes on TV, I come over all unnecessary. This crush has only recently developed. He gives me proper fanny flutters!

Get out.

sorrymrjackson · 17/07/2020 14:39

Hahaha, I do as well and have done for sometime. He was the only person I was looking forward to seeing at a radio one big weekend, Missed him on stage both times

MumandnotMum · 17/07/2020 14:40

I thought he was IT when he was on the X Factor. There’s definitely something about him!

Magicra84 · 17/07/2020 14:42

@sorrymrjackson

There's just something about him! When I see him my heart goes all funny!

I don't see it. It's a bit like saying you find Alan Carr sexy or Rylan gives you.... 'fanny flutters'. I mean, if that's what floats your boat then whatever, but I'm not sure most women would think the same as you.

Magicra84 · 17/07/2020 14:51

@MouthBreathingRage why, because he's gay? I don't fancy Alan Carr but Rylan isn't bad.

Oh god, I'm sure he's a very nice guy but he comes across as unbearably dumb, I can't even listen to his show for five minutes. I often hope that he's playing down for the sake of the show. Love Rylan and Alan though!

thebear1 · 17/07/2020 14:55

I like him, listen to him on radio 1 sometimes and he always says something to make me smile.

If gay men are off limits then that’s half my crushes gone. And nobody’s taking Andrew Scott away from me.

ConstanceSalinger · 17/07/2020 15:00

He's about 12 isn't he? If young, dumb and nasally is your type then good for you Grin

Couldn't agree more, but what that something is I couldn't tell you

Not because he's gay Hmm. I see his 'act' or 'media personality' as being the same as the people mentioned, not personally seeing how that's 'sexy'.

excuseforfights · 17/07/2020 15:23

I have to change the station when I hear his voice.

It sounded to me like you meant because he was gay. Which is fine but why deny it.

LouHotel · 17/07/2020 15:25

I loved him since his switch days with annie mac and I dont care. Sometimes his hair is twattish

SimonJT · 17/07/2020 15:25

His dogs are always very cute on instagram, Pig and Stinky Blob

He's 35 Grin

I agree with everything else you said though!

Silverspring · 17/07/2020 15:47

If he’s 35, so is my mum 😝

Are you really suggesting that the context of my post suggests women can't find any gay man attractive?
Magicra84 · 17/07/2020 16:43

@MouthBreathingRage it's because you mentioned two other gay men when you could've mentioned examples of straight men. I do seem to have a thing for camp gay men as it goes. I also have a thing for Gok Wan and Graham Norton.

Well you grouped Nick Grimshaw, Alan Carr and Rylan. All gay men 🤷‍♀️

Which is fine, I’m not really attracted to men once I know they’re gay, it’s like my biological system knows there’s no point going there. You don’t seem men to explain why you did group them together which is weird.

MouthBreathingRage · 17/07/2020 16:54

Oh good lord, you know exactly what I mean by their personality not being typically attractive or giving women 'the fanny gallops'. They're not the same as Andrew Scott (as an example given here). Would you like me to add Michael Mcintyre in? Joe Lycett?
