Reddit user winkeltwinkle asked: 'Straight men of Reddit who is the hottest man?'

Personal preferences aside, there are some people that are almost universally recognized as physically attractive.

It's common in society for most people to comment on another person's looks.

But heterosexual men are generally discouraged from remarking on other men's appeal.

That doesn't mean they don't have man crushes though!


Reddit user winkeltwinkle asked:

"Straight men of Reddit who is the hottest man?"

But would heterosexual men respond?

"Society: Most men are insecure about their sexuality."

"Reddit: Straight men of reddit, who is the hottest man?"

"Most Men: OH f*ck yes, here we go!"

~ Zetawilky

"Bless this site and bless these men."

~ Fluffy-kitten28

Respond they did, with enthusiasm.

Viggo Mortensen

"Aragorn, son of Arathorn."

~ CHIM_Jim

"Every man will momentarily hesitate when scheduling a haircut, because deep down he feels like if he let his hair grow just a little longer, he could look exactly like Aragorn."

~ CaptainOverthinker

"Funnily enough Legolas was my favourite as a kid."

"Now I’m grown up, I realise how humble and headstrong Aragorn is. He’s my favourite."

"Henry Cavill. I'd gladly spend a day with him just talking about geek stuff."

~ WaffleBlink

"Same here, but he won't even need to tie me down."

"For him I'll switch teams willingly."

~ Centralredditfan

"I didn't say I would be tied down involuntarily."

~ WaffleBlink

"I usually couldn't tell you if some guy off the street is handsome or not. Like... am I the handsome one out of my group of friends or am I the ugly one? Somewhere in the middle? I have no clue."

"Henry Cavill, though, that dude is a 10. Even I can tell you that."

~ Ocksu2

Chris Evans

"I'm not gay, OK, I'm not. I like chicks."

"But if Chris Evans' Captain America needed to get off, like, to save the world from Hydra or something, and I was the only one around?

Great Guys

"I love that so many of the gruff and tough characters are usually played by such kind and fun men.

~ Fyrrys
