I mean just looking at him you'd think he was just some average noodnick off the street.

So why is he referred to as someone whos particularly attractive? Sure he was a real cutup in the 12 Monkies with Bruce Willis, shooting the double bone at anyone who pissed him off at the insane asylum, but otherwise I dont get it.

There are other actors out there with more skills than Brad and Stu Pitt.

2 reasons:

1. 95% of the female population drool over him.
2. He kicked ass in Fight Club, 7even, and a few other movies.

Ive seen seven and wasnt impressed. Fight club was so maligned by everyone and their uncle to even bother with, so I didnt see it. When you have that many people ragging on a movie, something has to be wrong with it. Maybe Stu couldve helped if he had a cameo in it.

You rely on other people for your own choice?

I hope that's his stage name, 'cause if that's his real name, his parents should get slapped.

7even rocked the casbah
Fight Club was good but not amazing
And Brad Pitt is touted as a sex symbol because he is an unusually handsome guy with a lot of exposure

I always thought it was mainly due to him being in that chick-flick, thelma and louise.

Look Brad Pitt is a sex symbol because he nails the girls that are unattainable to 99.99% of the guys out there. When you can turn down Jennifer Anniston and get with Angelina a few weeks later then maybe you'll be a sex symbol, but sitting in your basement posting on ATOT probably won't increase your chances! :D

i guess you just can't see it. he's above average and has a tight bod, and he can act better than a lot of them.

It is also a matter of the guy is over 40 but still looks like he is in his 20s. The guy is attractive and physically fit. He is what they call "man-pretty", yet he retains the masculine features many girls want (for instance the stubble gives him masculine sex appeal but the baby face gives him a cute charm girls like). And I am very hetero, I just pick up on this stuff because girls have told me this stuff.

I think it has alot to do with his cocky "I don't care what you think about me" attitude, and he kinda has rugged good looks, definately not a "pretty boy". He just has that combo of masculine looks and attitude that seem to be irresistable to the womenz
