Being cool or creepy is all about context.

For example, when a photographer looks like Brad Pitt, and jokes around a lot, and hugs a cute female model after a shoot, and casually suggests grabbing a bite to eat, she sees him as funny and cool and sweet and friendly and fun to hang out with.

Jennifer Aniston might disagree on which is which. I'm betting Ernest is looking pretty damn good to her these days.

We should just blind all our models, maybe, and tell them we look like Brad Pitt?

So what's wrong with Ernest Borgnine? Women who go after fame and fortune are a dime a dozen.

Some people are more attracted to hearts, thoughts and souls.


If you don't have any of the above, then there might be a problem


This guy's pretty ugly, and he certainly doesn't have much character to write home about. Nevertheless, he seems to have some animal magnetism

That's because your scenario has him a photographer. Of course, he'll be creepy.

But if this same guy were (saaaaaaaaaaay) a rock guitarist, the ladies would be flocking to get in his pants.

Case in point...

Being cool or creepy is all about context.

For example, when a model looks like Heidi Klum, and jokes around a lot, and hugs an old geezer photographer after a shoot, and casually suggests grabbing a bite to eat, he sees her as funny and cool and sweet and friendly and fun to hang out with.

When a model looks like Phyllis Diller, and jokes around a lot, and hugs a photographer after a shoot, and casually suggests grabbing a bite to eat, he sees her as a washed-up old hag who'll even do the old casting couch routine to get any kind of action.

Two words for stud and perv at the same time:  Tyler Durden, Brad Pitt's famous role in Fight Club.  It seems 'acceptable perv' (aka, "fun cool guy") is defined by what he looks like!  lol

Never were truer words spoken.
If Brad Pitt, Val Kilmer or that guy from "Grey's Anatomy" ask to take you out in an office or tell them they are beautiful, girls think it's wonderful.
If it's an average guy, it's a sexual harassment lawsuit.

but who cares?
Tomorrow is Christmas !!
WooooooooooHooooooooooooooooooooo !!!


Also, I believe Ernest Borgnine won an OSCAR for the movie
"Marty" which he was great in.
Brad Pitt won't win crap.
