To fancy Zelenskyy?

Yes, it’s in bad taste. Yes, I feel awful. No, I can’t help it. And no this isn’t even something I’d flippantly call a lighthearted thread as that would be inappropriate. My only question is, am I the only one? I am genuinely curious.

He's hot. But I'd rather be the filling in a klitschko sandwich

Nowomenaroundeh · 13/05/2022 09:57

I totally fancy him

JoyDivisionOvenGlovesx · 13/05/2022 09:57

Think you’ve missed quite a few threads on this exact topic, OP.

In brief, you’re very much not the only one.

howler21 · 13/05/2022 09:59

I went searching for a similar thread but couldn’t find one. Everybody in real life who I’ve revealed my crush too has said it’s in bad taste, so I was expecting a bollocking on MN.

I totally fancy him too.

I do feel weird about it though

pumpkinpie01 · 13/05/2022 09:59

Definitely not the only one

VladmirsPoutine · 13/05/2022 10:27

It's always the same demographic that get in for this sort of thing so yanbu in that sense.

Georgeskitchen · 13/05/2022 10:31

Absolutely!! Not only his good looks but his courage in the face of the horror his country is facing. What girl doesn't love a hero?

10HailMarys · 13/05/2022 12:14

Doesn't everyone fancy him?!

I don't think it's in poor taste, either. He's a charismatic man with admirable courage and determination; it's pretty normal to find someone attractive for those reasons. Also, as he was a very famous and well-liked comic actor in Ukraine before he went into politics, he is obviously someone with a natural charm that has always appealed to people, regardless of the awful situation he's now having to navigate.

PleasantFucker · 13/05/2022 12:19

Oh, you're definitely not alone. I usually have a similar type and Zelenskyy isn't that type, but there's something about him 😳

howler21 · 13/05/2022 12:29

Oh he’s just divine. Have to turn the news off now when he comes on because I get flustered and I feel bad considering the situation.

His sexy green fleece sold for thousands on the internet. I wonder if the buyer is one of you lot.

If you look through his Instagram there’s an old picture of him topless getting his vaccine. I share this information for scientific research purposes.

Definitely not alone. He’s hawt. Joins the list of bone-able presidents along with Justin Trudeau

Exactly!
And I've read that a tweet saying something like "Is there anyone who fancies men who doesn't fancy Zelenskyy right now?" was hugely liked and retweeted a while ago.
Far from being unreasonable I'm beginning to think it's almost obligatory.

howler21 · 13/05/2022 12:35

And the way he’s stayed with his people as well, so admirable. You just know if we (and most other Western countries) were in the same situation our leaders would abandon us.

SmellsLikeMiddleAgeSpirit · 13/05/2022 12:35

Not sure why he had to get topless to have his vaccination; however, I'm not sorry that he did. Wink

TonyBlairsLover · 13/05/2022 12:38

YABU Tony’s better

howler21 · 13/05/2022 12:38

@SmellsLikeMiddleAgeSpirit.

He knew exactly what he was doing

Greenfrog78 · 13/05/2022 12:42

Epecially when he wears a certain green or brown close fitting t shirt !!!!

@SmellsLikeMiddleAgeSpirit.

He really did.

I love how Emmanuel Macron (who should be hot but somehow isn't) sought to emulate Zelenskyy's style with the t-shirt and stubble a few weeks ago! Hope Boris doesn't try that, it would be horrific!

howler21 · 13/05/2022 12:43

He seems a lovely, genuine family man as well. Doesn’t appear to have loads of illegitimate children who he doesn’t bother with by many different women like a few western leaders I could name.

You and me both 😍

@SmellsLikeMiddleAgeSpirit.

Macron is weird. His wife is 25 years older than him and met Macron when he was 15, she was his teacher. He’s a grooming victim.
