I haven't met him in person, but given his looks and his intellect I can tell that he's probably a sexbomb in the eyes of a typical female undergrad. . . . If only he could steer the young girls in his youth group away from crushing out on men old enough to be their fathers. :) Hugo is attractive in a traditional way.

I like people who are nice, and I tend to find people more attractive the more I see them. Beauty is what we like to look at, and because I like my friends, I like to look at them, so they get more and more beautiful. It goes the other way too. Meet a really hot guy, then it turns out he's an a**hole, all of a sudden he has blackheads and his calves are puny. I’m 24, very attractive.

The fact that some 16 year-old thinks a 28 year-old Hollywood star is hot doesn't have any connection to whether a man in his thirties and forties can't control his attraction to a girl that age.

Sounds dirty. Or, painful. My school was too small for debate team. There's a whole world of rhetoric and notecards that I'm just not clued into.

The point is noted. There is a large list of famous people that I find unappealing, but I consider it gauche to denigrate appearance since it is something that a person cannot completely control. Hugo, by citing the opinions of girls in his youth group, has committed the rhetorical equivalent of a muffed punt in football. (Just a muffed punt, not the dreaded “own goal” that we feared back in those high school debating days. ) You gotta razz the guy a little. Keeps his mind tack sharp. :) For the record, I do not think that it is a good thing to WANT to have sex with minors, but attractions cannot always be dictated. Actions, of course, are a different matter. Hugo has provided evidence that some teenage girls are attracted to significantly older guys. No big deal. Just thought it was humorous. Ms. Veronica,

I'm thinking that's dropping his hotness factor way down, unless you're the type of person who likes listening to the vocal stylings of "Roxanne" against 16th century English melodies...
