Someone did. ;)

 

 

LOL! I think that was born of expedience, not lust. Ugh - the thought makes me cringe! :sick::sick::sick:

John Krasinski, I think it's the cute smile he has!

Here's a picture of an actor I had a crush on as a child:

I agree with TBF and Story about the Russell Crowe thing. It's ludicrous to describe him as plain. The fact that he doesn't look like a finely chiselled girl doesn't mean he isn't a great looking man. And is this the Diane Lane who was put forward as an example of a plain woman?

A few more

 

Pierre Clementi from Belle Du Jour. He's not plain, but rather strange looking. But boy does he make my heart go pitter-patter. He reminds me of Cillian Murphy who sort of falls into the same category. I've only found Cillian hot in one movie, though -- Batman. Elsewhere he's too creepy/effeminate.

 

When I was eleven or twelve I had a huge crush on Conan O'Brien. Not because of his looks, but his acerbic wit. I'm a sucker for funny, smart guys.

 

Anderson Cooper, even though he's gay and sort of resembles a wolf.

Sometimes its the small things that i may notice about a guy. Like the way he walks, his long eye lashes, he isnt afraid to speak him mind>

Julian Casablancas and that guy you posted a photo of look like young model types. How are they plain?

They're not plain, but they're not stereotypically good looking. Their features are more effeminate/boyish and less traditionally chiselled.

Carolyn Bessette. Remember her? JFK Jr.’s wife. She was known for her plain, yet sexy looks and style. Everyone was crazy about her.

I wouldn't even call her plain. Her features were rather exaggerated (she had a large nose) but they were also striking and refined in a way -- just not conventionally so.

Yes, lindya, that's her, and I'll repeat my earlier assertion that she has never looked "plain" from the time she was pre-adult (and I was too then, in case that sounded squicky...) to the present...

Even as a teen she was very beautiful.

Diane Lane is a natural beauty. If you look at most media photos, she's not into dramatic makeup. There's the odd glamour photo, where she's wearing more makeup and can run with the best of them.

Isn't sexy usually deermined the body?

 

Like I see women all of the time who have fairly plain looks, but great curves and that makes them plain, but sexy

Is she really plain though? Plus her body is thin and elegant looking, not curvy, but far from unattractive or even conventional

Charlotte needs to eat something. :sick:

Personally I don't think she is plain at all, so it is hard to define what plain really means... because I am taking someone generic that *society* thinks is glam like Heidi Klum (who i think is plain and ho hum) as a standard.

 

Personally speaking, I would consider Jessica Alba or Cindy whats her name the model with the mole very plain.

 

This doesn't makes sense anymore, does it?

No no I bet she has a hearty appetitie, you can tell she is naturally that way. Perhaps it is not your thing, but it doesn't mean she is not eating enough.

Maybe in the land of puppy dogs and ice cream that's true. But on Earth that chick either has a tapeworm or an eating disorder. No way in hell is that natural.

It doesn't have to be that way

 

Ive known women like that and a lot of them simply prefered cocaine to food

You'd actually be surprised. A friend of ours is 5'8" and weighs 112 pounds. She is very thin but she is as healthy as they come.

Dude, c'mooon there are a million and one body types, some people are naturally obese, some have little pot bellies, and some are naturally bone thin.

 

In the case of Nicole Ritchie, you can tell it is dieting, but it would be a huge mistake to assume that all rail thin women are purgers, as it would be a mistake to assume that all fat people simply overeat.

 

A lot was decided before you (in the general sense) were born through genetics. :p

Okay, one more possibility.
