    More left outs ...

    Yes, definitely Clive Owen and Alan Rickman.

    Also how about the sexy saviors of the world: Bono, Geldof and that totally hot economist, George Monbiot?

    Finally, to add some non-US diversity to the list, I'd like to include the ENTIRE All-Black Rugby Team of New Zealand. Watch 'em doing the Haka, and dare to disagree:

    Sadly, the leader/caller, Tana Umaga (my choice for sexiest man in the world), retired from international rugby last year--but the Haka is always good, no matter who leads.

    The thing that makes these guys so sexy is that, while they exhibit this savage, primieval fierceness on the field, in person they are gentle as the lambs for which Aotearoa is also famous. (But please, no more sheep jokes).
