Mantasies: The Intellectual

The collared shirt, glasses, quick tongue, a penchant for video games... Just to note, this stereotype includes a bit of femininity that in the wrong proportion can be a major turn-off*. That being said, I am a mega-hardcore sucker for smart guys in glasses. A pair of lenses may be my greatest weakness. If he's four-eyed and knows stuff beyond my area of comprehension, I'm done for. Add in a heady dose of machismo... and I think we've found my ultimate mantasy.

*Have I ever mentioned how grossed out I am by guys who brag about how they "write poetry"?

Mantasies: The Fireman

The fireman: of rescue and calendar fame. I like their style. They know what has to be done, and they get in there and do it. They save cats* and babies and ladies from possible/certain death. They're all about getting dirty with ash all over their face and broken boards in their wake. Firemen are a sure-fire win. Ha. Although I'm not a big fan of the outfits.


*Do they still save cats out of trees?

Mantasies: The Lumberjack

I'm all for burly men if there's a quiet, confident mystique about them. I like boots. I like muscles, as long as they're practical and not over done. The plaid is a bit touch and go for me but really if anyone knows how to work plaid it's the lumberjack. Often I can do without facial hair on a guy. You know how guys are, if they can grow it they will (and if they can't, they'll still try). There are 3 acceptable variations of facial hair growth: no growth, stubbly growth, and full blown beard. Seeing as lumberjacks can't really help growing facial hair because they're so testosterone heavy, I think it works.  I have a feeling real lumberjacks never measure up to the fantasy but that's not really the point, is it.

Let's Talk About Hot Guys

Who's your pick for most melt-worthy Vancouver Olympics athlete?

My vote: John Morris, aka Johnny Mo. Tall. Mannish. Piercing blue eyes... he's also a champion curler who moonlights as a firefighter. He's third on Team Martin, the golden team that has played a perfect game so far this tournament and is fighting Norway for the Gold tomorrow night. And guess what? ET Canada voted him one of Canada's most eligible bachelors. La swoon...

Let's Talk About Hot Guys

Which sport has the hottest athletes?

My vote: soccer. Muscular but lean, not bulky. Nice arms, nice legs, nice abs. Plus they're tall but not awkwardly tall.
