That’s very well said, Maneater! I personally have had it with girly types, who almost look like female-to-male transexuals, à la Di Caprio !

Whatever happenned to movie and television stars who actually looked like real men? In the 50′s, there were Charlton Heston, and Kirk Douglas, among others. The 70′s had Clint Eastwood, Burt Reynolds, Harrison Ford, Bruce Lee…. The 80′s were quite a decade, with Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Dennis Quaid, Dolph Lundgren, Lou Ferigno, Tom Selleck, Bruce Boxleitner, Jeff Bridges, Kurt Russell, Charlie Sheen…

Stallone and Swarzenegger were still pretty active in the early 90′s, but I guess one could say those years, from the early to mid 90′s were the Baldwin brothers years. There were also Bruce Willis, Michael Douglas, and a young Johnny Depp, to name a few.

But then came the late 90′s, with Leonardo Di Caprio, Matt Damon, and other hairless, skinny, boyish actors. That’s when things f—- up, I believe. There were a few Ben Afflecks and Vin Diesels, but the new trend had been set.

Now, we have lots of so-called stars who look like tall boys, not like men. They will often shave or wax what little chest hair they have (think Hayen Christensen).

I dunno, maybe it’s the fact that our society is soooo obsessed with youth and the moguls think we want stars who look youthful, who will even look boyish when they reach their fourties. They’re ssomething unhealthy, unnatural, about it all, I think.

Let us see some beef cake, Hollywood!

I really, really liked Dennis Quaid in Enemy Mine, by the way. A unique man; a much underrated actor.
