I’m having trouble telling most of your hot male models apart from each other. Is it that you have a very specific idea of what makes an attractive man, or is it that you think your readers do?

@Devon, gosh I’m not sure. I thought I have been pretty careful to feature different races/ethnicities and also different “looks.”
Generally I don’t go for the grunge type, so I’m pretty sure I haven’t featured an actor/model that fits that mold.
Any suggestions?
FWIW, my husband looks nothing like any of them.

I’m not complaining. I like that you have varying darknesses of skin. It’s just that they all seem to have razor-sharp cheekbones, hollowed out cheeks, and super-tight skin to go with their lantern jaws and square chins. Thin, thin, thin is how they look to me. A bunch of male models, plus the fascinating Idris Elba, the Dark Knight cast, and the 50’s icons. I consider those last 3 to be variety and the others to be the same, even though their skin tones vary. We all like a toned body, but It seems like only the models are taking off their shirts. (except Tom Hardy – go, Tom!)
Maybe I’m just biased against the male models that are popular in the fashion industry. I’d kind of like to see actors and/or musicians with their clothes (mostly) on – men who are beautiful through their passion and fashion.
Thanks for listening. :>

@Devon, I was being totally serious about suggestions!
Indeed, many male models have the sculpted cheekbone look you mentioned, and that just seems to be the way things are at the moment.
I’m sure there are thousands of great looking men in all fields that I just don’t know about. I have a toddler, I dont’ get out much.
Email me some names! 🙂
