Statistically insignificant observations: the breakdown is roughly equally by gender (3/2) and geography (2 Southwest, 1 Midwest, 1 Northeast, 1 Southeast). Four brunettes, 1 blonde (presentation is everything) but then most people are brunettes of one kind or another. The only interesting point is that all 5 are Caucasians; no Asians, Latinos, or African Americans. Results possibly skewed somewhat by over-representation of light-skinned people in the professoriat, but I bet that doesn't explain the entire selection.
Oh, none of the five are chubby, either. But we live in a world where "thin" = "hot", so that one's not so surprising.
As for what they look like individually, I just saw Zoolander last night. Performance and persona are EVERYTHING.
Has to be; there really isn't that much variation in how people look once you've set a baseline of "healthy and symmetrical"; everything else is presentation, charisma, grace, charm. All of which are nice too, I mean. I'm not knocking it, I like to be around those people as much as anyone else.
eric robertson is actually pretty cute even for an average guy. Most people rarely have attractive professors so yeah, the bar is set pretty low. Also, I'm thinking their personality and the way they teach add to their attractiveness. We aren't robots, attractiveness is not just based on the physical.

ReplyDeleteProf. Duplaise does at least approach the traditional ideal of fleshiness, though; the upper arms are quite promising.
Number 5 looks like a realtor, the rest are women*, Prof. Gutstein probably uses the Alt Yiddishe Charm (or he is a Spock, and the women dig a Spock.)

Hey, don't diss my Spock! I imprinted on Spock at the age of 9. Spock is Teh Hot.
ReplyDeleteWell, all right, they're all better looking than me, for whatever that's worth.
ReplyDeleteProf Gutstein reminds me of Mark Knopfler.

ReplyDeleteYou just proved my case.
@ EC1
No he's more like Bill Nye or the lead singer of Men at Work, sans the lazy eye.
I suspect charisma is at play here.

ReplyDelete"presentation, charisma, grace, charm." And boobs. Don't forget boobs.
ReplyDeleteYeah. Gutstein and Robertson have great boobs.
