Obviously, if you think these actors are today's hearthrobs, you've only talked to girls under 25. Grown women, of which I'm one, think these guys need a lot more testosterone. I'm really sick of Hollywood parading these skinny emaciated looking boys onto the big screen and expect women to swoon. Where's the muscle? Where are the real men? Please...no more wimps! Being able to grow a scruffy-looking beard doesn't cut it.
