Who's Hotter: Blonde Men or Brunette Men?

I’m horny. I was going to blog about other things today, but I haven’t had sex in almost six months. So, I really need to talk (and fantasize) about men for a bit. And, if we’re going to talk about men, what better topic could there be than People Magazine’s 2006 Sexiest Man Alive pick? No, they haven’t named the guy yet, but yes I’m pretty sure I know who they’re going to pick. Who is it? Well ... Here’s what I know. People Magazine usually bestows the top SMA award on attractive, 30-something, whitebread, American men — though some SMAs have hailed from Scotland, Australia, and England. Also, the SMA is typically someone who is in the news at the end of the summer / beginning of fall when the SMA issue hits newsstands. So, taking all of this into consideration, I have two words for you: David. Beckham.* He’s 31. British. Hot. And, let us not forget that it’s a World Cup year; he’ll be in the news a lot this summer. But, here’s a question: how the hell could the magazine that wisely honored such deliciously dark-featured men as Denzel Washington, JFK Jr. and George Clooney suddenly “Go Blonde”? Now, before you all throw your Clairol Ultress 7a Medium Ash Blonde bottles of hair color at me, let’s be clear: I love men. All [gorgeous] men. Hell, I think Paul Walker is a hottie. He’s blonde. [Pictured, but click here to drool over more photos Paulie.] Ditto for Jason Lewis. [Click here to drool over J-babe.] It’s just, as I’ve said before; my preference tends to be the 2 out of 3 guy: Hair. Eyes. Skin — at least 2 out of the 3 should be dark. And, you know what? People Magazine used to agree with me. Peruse the Sexiest Man Alive Vault, and you’ll notice that the top award has only gone to 6 (5 faux, 1 natural) blondes over the past 20 years. That’s not exactly “Going Blonde”, BUT it’s worth noting that the two most recent triumphs mark a back-to-back blonde win; Jude Law won in 2004 and Matthew Mcconaughey won in 2005. So, if/when Becks wins this year, we’ll have a Blond Threepeat on our hands. What ever happened to tall, dark and handsome? Are blondes the new “it” boys? - - - - - - - - - - ** Paul Walker is a fucking god. Sure, it would make more sense to post a photo of David Beckham today. But, I couldn’t do it. I just couldn’t fathom writing a post and about blondes and NOT posting a picture of Paul Walker. It would have felt like I was cheating.
