What do you think of the list so far? Which men do you think will be ranked high on the list and which men do you want to see ranked high on the list?

In some cases this is hard to say because for people like Jake Martin, which Jake are we referring to? I don't know what they mean by "Hunk" but in what universe is Marco Dane hunkier than Brody? Josh Madden was played by Colin Egglesfield, right? And SID is saying there will be 90 hunkier guys than him? And then they throw in Ric Lansing and Marco? I don't think more than one out of every 100 women if shown photos would go with Ric or Marco over Josh. And as I recall him, Dylan Moody would be on top 10 lists, not #88 or whatever. I can't do anything but laugh at the notion that pipsqueak Juan from GH made a hot hunk list at all.

I think that if they mention a character that has been recasted but doesn’t specify the actor who played them, that they mean the most recent person playing that character. I think that the Jake they are probably talking about is Ricky Paull’s Goldin’s Jake, even though I think that J. Eddie Peck's Jake was the hottest Jake. I thought that his Jake was very hot and sexy.

I also thought that Windsor Harmon's Del Henry was pretty hot, but I don't know if his version of Del or Alec Musser's version will make the list. And Josh Madden was also a recast, Scott Kinworthy played him before Colin did, even though I think that SID is referring to Colin's Josh Madden.

I also don't agree with some of the choices and order of the choices. I feel like Jonathan Lavery could have been ranked higher and over someone like Coleman.

I think that Sonny and/or Jason will probably make the top 10. I also think that Zach and/or Ryan could be in the top 10. And that John McBain could be in the top 10 as well. I think that Luke might place pretty high as well.

I would love to see Adam Chandler and David Hayward make the list and get decent rankings. And Frankie Hubbard, but I have a feeling that he is going to be left off the list. I want to see Leo du Pres ranked high on the list and IMO, his brother Trey was kind of hot., but I don’t know if Trey will make the list.

[SarahJoyBrownFF]

I don't have to see the Top 10 I already know who will be in it. Sonny Corinthos will be #1, followed by Ryan Lavery. Give me time on 3-10.

[All My Shadows]

Josh at #91? Yeah. Really, SID.

I love how they feel obliged to include RH and LOV. If they want to make it a GH-heavy list, they should just go ahead and do that. Watch Spinelli be in the top 10.

[jcar03]

I would pick Rick Hearst any day over Colin Egglesfield.

[RomeAt50]

Me too. Colin is a good looking guy but if asked to choose between him and Rick Hearst I would pick Rick.

[nell17]

Me too. No matter who they choose, the list is going to be superficial and a matter of personal taste. What are they basing the choices and rankings on anyway? Popularity? Popularity in their magazine? Not that I don't like him, but who would have guessed that Hugh Jackman would be People's Sexiest Man?

Back to the list. I'm sure Sonny Corinthos, Jason Morgan, and Ryan Lavery will place high on the list, but they do nothing for me, not my type. Never have been, never will be.

[LoyaltoAMC]

Here are my personal faves throughout the years...from the purely shallow standpoint of this gay man (in alphabetical order):

Grant Aleksander, GL, AMC, Capitol

Brian Bloom, ATWT

Steve Bond, GL

Matt Borlenghi, AMC

Trent Bushey, AMC

Kevin Conroy, AW, SFT

Don Diamant, Y&R

Carl Tye Evans, GL, ATWT

Steve Fletcher, OLTL

Charles Flohe/Grant, EoN, AW

Jon Hensley, ATWT

Drake Hogestyn, DAYS

Cameron Mathison, AMC (yes, his character is annoying, but I've always found Cam hot as hell)

Grayson McCouch, ATWT, AW

Joshua Morrow, Y&R

Jamison Parker, OLTL

Peter Reckell, DAYS

Paolo Sergenti, ATWT

Jon Wesley Shipp, GL, ATWT, AMC, SB

Greg Vaughn, GH, Y&R

That's fine and that's you, but Colin Egglesfield was a model at one point and he was a model for a reason, and I imagine if Calvin Klein and every other designer were given a choice between the two as to who would walk the runway modeling briefs, every last one would pick Colin Egglesfield. There are just some things personal taste can't refute away. It would be the same for the guy who played Dylan Moody way back when vs the inevitable top 10 member Tony Geary. Let's be honest here about what the general application of "hunk" usually is. They aren't even taking Rick Heart from his younger, fitter days. They are choosing the Rick Hearst who is 40, with questionable hair dye, pasty white skin, and who has gone a little soft in the torso over a guy who is the very definition of fit. How can this be an honest choice for who is the hottest hunk?

[xtr]

Maybe the people who make this list are also basing their choices on they think is the sexiest men, as well as the best looking men? Some men may not be all that good looking, but a lot of people still find them sexy for various reasons. I don't think that Luke is a good looking man, but I'm sure that there are people that find him sexy, even if they admit, he's not your typical soap hunk. I don't think that Ric is very attractive, but I have seen a lot of viewers call him sexy.

I think that Adam and David Hayward, can be sexy in their own ways, but if we were going off of just looks, even though I think David is good looking, I don't think that they would make the top of a list that judges men based soley on their looks.

I understand what you are saying though. So I guess the question is, is this list just based on who has the best looking face and body? Or is it based on that, and who has the most appealing attitude and personality, and who people at SID feel is the sexiest in terms of these things.

[All My Shadows]

The list is 100% subjective, and it boils my blood when "critics" and "journalists" and "writers" feel that they're somehow more qualified to decide who is a "hunk" and who isn't.

[dragonflies]

Ric Hearst should be in the top 5. That man is scrumptious

[SteveFrame]

Sayting that they are basing this on Rick Hearst at 40 is not right either. This is of all time and I am sure they are taking into consideration all the years.

Even saying that I don't think they will do this justice. It will be just like their couples list - way too slanted to the current favorites of ABC.

[evermore]

This list is a joke, isn't it? I mean, Jason Webb and Casey the Alien?
