To me it was interesting reading the discussion there about what people consider hot, in particular the debate about superficial beauty, and who posters put on their "list". But, I also understand the considerations for the "lists" are pure eye candy.
My list includes two categories: women who are brilliant, and chefs. Sadly, I didn't get past listing Christina Hendricks before needing a personal moment, but she wouldn't be in the list if I had read interviews in which she acted like a vacuous cream-puff. The remainder of my list:
Christiana Hendricks
Marian Call (discussed in the 'hawtness' thread, I've heard the woman sing and I've heard her speak and I've heard the lyrics that come from her lovely mind. Any time, any place.
Jennifer Jasinski. Local chef, runs her kitchen like the gulag but turns out amazing stuff.
Bobby Flay, are you ready for a throwdown? Yeah, he's also cute.
Iron chef Morimoto. Yeah, I'd go a few rounds. Not 'attractive', but I'm totally attracted to him.
Rick Bayless. Another chef.
Ewald Notter, pastry and sugar artist. Those hands!
Tony Bourdain, as long as I can tie him up.
