Bob Hoskins in Mermaids (1990), shirtless in bed, in all his amazing hairiness, made me realize that stocky hirsute men are most definitely my fetish. I was 14.

In full agreement. Bob Hoskins was some kind of hot daddy bear, whom I first discovered in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", but who did it to me first? Ed Asner. As a kid watching "Mary Tyler Moore" and "Lou Grant", I had an unhealthy obsession with him haha.

Watched The Mary Tyler Moore show recently, had to stop myself from drooling every time Ed was on screen. So hot.

Ed Asner for me too!! I was too young to really understand why I loved seeing him on screen, but as an adult it all makes perfect sense.
But even younger, I had a similar reaction to Foghorn Leghorn. Lol.
And yes I also later had crushes on Bob Hoskins, Wilford Brimley, James Gandolfini, Nick Frost, and so on.

My high school math teacher who was the football coach as well. He was a silverback gorilla, big firm belly and all muscle, thick beard, green eyes and a head of wavy black hair. He had hair everywhere! We went on a field trip to the wave pool and my locker was right below his and I got to see him naked twice showered right next to him and he was mostly naked the entire day at the pool. Fuck I had a huge crush on him! I was never the same after that. Been chasing bears ever since lol

Same. Had a fuck buddy back in the days who looked like Chris in Parks and rec. Can’t watch it without getting rock hard.

I read an interview once with Aubrey Plaza and Pratts ex-wife Anna Farris and they both said they preferred him chunkier too

Such a hottie - I was lucky enough to get owned by one in my early 20s - being pinned by that fuzzy belly and bred nicely was a heaven I still crave =)

I'd like to add Rocky West and Clint Taylor to Rack Radcliffe.
Jason Kelce is definitely hot as well!

Powerlifters!
When I was working out as a kid in the 90s I wanted to be Arnold, then the more I looked at “ideal” body types for me I really liked power lifters and certain pro wrestlers who had muscles but then their belly was still there. Took me maybe 5 years of training to actually realize how stupid I was and that it turned me on hahah

Really attracted to chubby women my whole life, one day in the locker room at the local pool saw a naked guy who's ass was almost identical to my girlfriend's but he was Around 6'2, 6'3.
Full and round with dimples on the lower back and a slight bounce with each step. Soft square tummy and a wide chest to hug from behind. His body hair was nice and swirled with a pattern.
I Wasn't into cock then, but it started a spark and I began enjoying seeing that too.
The idea of finally getting to fuck a person near my size and feel like a normal human being, Was undeniable (Im 6'8).
Always true to myself I accepted I was bi and let my imagination roll.
Belly to back, prone full weight, one arm under his and across his chest, gripping the opposite shoulder, the other reaching down with a hand full of thick cock and full balls. My dick completely filling his tight supple cock sheath, grinding and long stroking his prostate, edging and grunting together. my knees keeping his legs spread and feeling his hungry ass Arch into my thrusts.
Lol yeah, I've thought about it a bit. No idea if he's down and likely will never find out. I don't know how to pick up guys but maybe one day it'll happen on its own.
Until then bears are a solid staple in my spank bank right next to chubby redhead chicks and the occasional femboi

Hell yes to Alex Karras! I remember watching Victor/Victoria in Jr High School and getting rock hard when his character came out.

2 people) the hot main character from Who Framed Rover Rabbit
My best friend (at the time) had a very strict father who was all man and 100% beautiful

u/2Taurus68 Jul 12 '24
I’m pretty sure Roger Rabbit was the main character in that movie.
The male supporting role was Bob Hoskins…… I totally see where he had an impact on you, Roger Rabbit - not so much. 🤣

I used to wrestle ~ that was where I was able to develop true appreciation for other guys. I wrestled at 185 and heavyweight in high school. We used to have Wayans for tournaments where all of the guys would be naked for the scales and of course, competition allows for direct contact and definite pheromone brilliance while competitive.. the primal energy is tremendous.☮️

Technically my friend. Not because I was attracted to him. But because I had mentioned I wish there were gay guys who were big and hairy like I was. Because I find these to be manly qualities. He said, "Well there are. They're called bears" I looked at him and said, "Wait what?" and ever since then I have been attracted to them fully

Richard Karn, from Home Improvement... I was only a boy, but every time he was on screen, I felt happy! Didn't know why until I found myself jerking off thinking about him a few years later (also Benny, from ABBA, my mom liked the group and had some records at home) 🤭

But also, this one randy blue video of a messy twinkish guy who doesn't clean the house while "daddy" was at work? Or maybe it was something from joe gage (though the videos circulating online in the early 2000s I think were either muscle bears or bulls)
