It seems my post about nice guys vs guys you’re actually attracted to has sparked some discussion. The question people are asking now is “can you help who you love?”
Ladies and gentleman, I will not bore you with opinions and theories. Lo, no, I know you come here expecting so much more than that. I offer you, instead, a little thing I like to call irrefutable evidence.
Some of my husband’s favorite actresses:
Oh look, a short, spunky blonde with a pointy chin. How odd.
Oh look. Another blonde. How odd.
Oh LOOK. Blonde. Curls. It's almost like I've seen this before...
Some of my favorite male celebrities:
Oh look. A thin, slightly effeminate who is clearly comfortable with his sexuality.
Oh look! A celebrity known for his brawn and raging masculinity! Wait... no... that's not right...
Oh LOOK! It's SEX ON LEGS!
And not to beleaguer the point, but, uh….
Hi. Have you MET US?
And that, my friends, is a little thing we like to call science.
You’re welcome.

Apparently, with the exception of Drew Barrymore, Jared also likes old chicks.

Too Funny!
So,um, Autumn needs a science fair project, mind if I steal this one? I’m sure she’ll get an A for sure!

There’s also a theory that you’re attracted to someone who looks like you (i.e. same color hair and eyes, etc…) which is proven by the fact that many people have said that Jeremy and I look like we could be brother and sister. Oh, how he loves hearing that!

I know you spent a lot of time gathering and publishing this scientific research, but all I took away from it is, “Britt thinks her husband is effeminate”.
Reply
That is so scientific.
Mr. Britt loves the cougars.
Miss Britt loves the gays.
It all makes sense now.

I bet you do ‘dress-up’ real good.
Got any more drew barrymore pics?

do i be serious here and say that this just proves who you are “attracted” to or do i admit that i cackled like a hyena and might get fired for surfing over here?
decisions, decisions.
i’mma go with this cracked my shit up! well done!!

Johnny Depp is so delicious, but how does Mr. Britt feel about you comparing him to Prince?
Reply
i love gay people!

I’m LMAO that I have some of your celebs AND some of Jared’s on “my list”.

Well this explains everything… Mister loves Christina (Xtina?) Aguilera, Nicole Kidman and Michelle Pfeiffer. In case anyone hadn’t noticed, I’m not a skinny blonde.
Your thoughts?

Now I’m 2nd-guessing my attraction for my husband.
Oh wait… that’s him 2nd-guessing his attraction for me.
Reply
I dunno. My woman likes John Goodman, Josh Hartnett and Gael Garcia Bernal. How does that work?
Reply
every celebrity i love looks not even remotely a thing like my husband.
he, on the other hand, like the “girl next door type” which is EXACTLY how i am

You blinded me with science.

Bwah ha ha ha ha!
I am sooooooo with you on this one! I realized too late into my first marriage that guys who were my age or older were not my cup of tea and no matter how hard I tried, it just wasn’t going to work. My current hubby is much younger than me, and I don’t mind being called a couger at. all.

LeSombre stole my comment.
Fucker.

Wow, I can’t see right now. You totally blinded me with science!

Oh and hey, let me help blind your readers with MY science… here is a post where I list my top celebs I’d like to bang. They all look the bleedin’ same.

The picture didn’t show up for me (but it is probably big brother censoring it–I am at work afterall).
You too are cute though.

New reader here … found you through Miss Zoot.
This science experiment is awesome. I need to try it with my hubby.
Reply
BUT, but, buttttttttttt….. All that proves is you can’t help who you’re attracted to. It still doesn’t explain how a lot of us confuse passion or lust with love and therefore we make bad decisions based on raw emotion.
By the way…. PRINCE is hawt… all 4feet, 10inches of him
Reply
LMAO @ NYCWD.

You two are C U T E !!!!!
Reply
Wow. I feel an Oingo Boingo moment coming on.
You guys are way cuter than Drew Barrymore or Prince could ever hope to be. ;P

Miss Britt, just de-lurking to say you crack me up! – you’re science Rocks – and also that I’m glad to have found yet another 20 something woman with the Twilight Addiction who thinks Edward is hella hot . . . what is it about the dark side that is So Good?
Reply
LOL!! My husband changed my type forever from tall, thin blondes to muscle-y, brooding exotic types. It’s amazing how little I care about a pretty blonde now!
Reply
My top hotties are Jimmy Smits and Taye Diggs. My WASP husband says “And you were attracted to me, Why?”
Reply
You two are the cute! That is all.
Reply
Hmm… let’s see… Drew, not bad. Meg, ten years ago. Melanie, never.
Reply
I guess that explains hubby and I. Its all science!
Reply
UH… Did you just create the perfect name for Jared’s Blog? It kind of seems you almost, sort of called him a “Masculine Effeminate.”
Oh man! Now I want that for MY blog name. Damnit!!
Reply
You’re silly.

Ha! What a great post!

I guess I need to find someone who likes the look of Rose in Titanic with the attitude of Sarah Silverman…. ya… that’s gonna happen.

You totally married Matthew Modine!

hello haha narf: riiiight – but attraction is definitely a part of romantic love that you base romantic relationships on.

Crys: NO ONE ON THIS PAGE IS GAY!!! Arghhh.
Honeybell: so you’re saying you want to come over for dinner?
Finn: um. Uh. Um. Jared ALSO likes Selma Hayeck?
Angie [A Whole Lot of Nothing]: do you enjoy the naked time? Guessing over.

Well, Melanie Griffith is almost 24 years older than Jared and Meg Ryan is 20 years older, so even when they were younger, they were much, much older.
Oh no! He likes women who didn’t age well and had bad plastic surgery! You’re screwed!

Oingo Boingo is the band who wrote/sang “Weird Science.” And my personal favorite “Dead Man’s Party.”
Reply
But most of the guys I’ve dated (or celebrities I find attractive) look nothing alike. Does that mean I’m a whore or something?
Reply
I learned sometime ago that Johnny Depp and I are the same age. He got all the looks and the fame. I ended up with just being born the same year.
