WHY do People Find The Phantom Sexy?

[curiousnorway]

The phantom of the opera is supposed to look unattractive. Although he looks less worse in the newer version than the old ones, he's still the disfigured, homicidal stalker. I wants a detailed well explained answer from the fan girls! They makes me curious! #ThePhantom #PhantomOfTheOpera #Unattractive

The Phantom Of The Opera, 2004 version

The phantom unmasked

[alice55]

I think it's because he's passionate (about his music, Christine, etc...), he's mysterious and girls generally like guys who have a problem, they want to help him, make everything better for him, etc...
Too generally the singer who play him is attractive and got a very good voice.
I think girls imagine him more like the singer rather than his disfigured version.

[sugarchateau]

The only reason for me is because the actor is Gerard freaking Butler. He is a God. Lol

[curiousnorway]

An actor can look completely different in real life than in a role. With makeup, special effects and costumes they can make a good looking unattractive and visa versa. So a good looking actor don't equal a good looking character if that makes sense.

[sugarchateau]

Makes sense, but I know it’s Gerard Butler and his voice can make me orgasm lolololol

[Raven93]

Have you seen him in 300? Ugh, that movie makes me wet.

[sugarchateau]

Oh honey, I’ve seen alllllll his movies lololol he is a God!

[Raven93]

He really is 😂

[curiousnorway]

@Raven93, he looks completely different in the movie '300' than in the phantom.

[sugarchateau]

Yes but he is still Gerard Butler lolol always *swoon* 💖

[Raven93]

@curiousnorway no shit 😂 he's just attractive in general.

[ChronicThinker]

Because if you hide that one part of his face he kinda is.

[curiousnorway]

You can still see there's a mask there.

[ChronicThinker]

Yeah, I can fuck him with the mask on.

[BoneslikeGlass]

Because Gerard butler is fricken hot, that's why!!!

[curiousnorway]

The actor looks different in the role than in real life.

[BoneslikeGlass]

I know, he's still hot though. Also that movie is from quite a few years ago so obviously he's going to look different

[clampfan101]

I’d say there’s more than just looks, but I’ve never seen it.

[curiousnorway]

Elaborate?

[clampfan101]

I’ve never seen the movie, but know there’s more than one possible reason girls think he’s hot. Maybe his personality? Voice? Intelligence? But I have no idea what the most plausible reasons are because I know nothing about him and the movie.

[CaptainSmartass]

Because he's loaded.

Simples...

[curiousnorway]

Loaded how?

[CaptainSmartass]

He's rich.

[Ellie-V]

In the Seria Boggess version, the actor who played the phantom is SUPER SEXY!!!
But the character, himself, the concept of the phantom is sexy in itself. He’s the mystery bad boy who you feel sorry for.

[mel1695]

Because he is everything I want and my more.

One of my favorite movies of all time ❤️❤️

[curiousnorway]

Can you please elaborate on why?

[mel1695]

Jokes aside, there is something sexy about a mysterious guy that only shows half of his face. It intrigues me to want to know more about him. It’s like going to a masquerade ball, there is something so thrilling about not knowing who is in front of you. Hard to explain. And plus, he is a hot tortured soul, whats not to love 😏

[hasrett]

Because when he wears a mask he other half if normal Gerard Butler which is hot.

[curiousnorway]

The mask is still visible.

[hasrett]

It doesn't matter.

[Desconhecida]

It's the story. Like Beauty and the Beast makes girls like the beast.

[curiousnorway]

Elaborate, please?

[Desconhecida]

You always ask me to elaborate LOL

[curiousnorway]

I always asks people with short and unclear comments to do it. It's not only you I asks.

[Desconhecida]

I wrote clearly as a sunny day

[curiousnorway]

What things in these stories makes girls likes the characters?

[Desconhecida]

The romance dude

[Ledoyen]

I think the phantom of the opera is a metaphor of our dark ugly side we all have so we subconsciously relate to it and find it attractive

[karahiri]

His persona, his voice, how dark and tortured he seems. IRL would be creepy

[Anonymous]

Because he has a tortured soul so girls want to nurture him; because we're socialised to think we have to 'fix' men

[corlreef]

i always find myself oddly attracted to the villain. maybe bc of his mysterious nature or just the fact that ur not supposed to like him makes him more attractive

[Raven93]

I can still find someone sexy if they're disfigured. Maybe it's his voice. Or personality. Or because we know who the actor is and he's fucking gorgeous.

[Anonymous]

Stockholm syndrome?

The mysteriousness? His dominant personality yet underlying affection and love for Christine?

[N23SA]

Half of his face is still decent, or girls really like that homocidal stalker vibe

[SuhDudez]

I don’t know. He is creepy if I had him as a stalker I would burn him with fire.

[MoNigheanDonn]

It's the man behind the mask. Gerald Butler... sexy piece of Scottish man meat.

[ZELLxoxo]

Because guys like him hardly exist :D

[curiousnorway]

Elaborate?

[ZELLxoxo]

I mean to say as insane he is, he's still pretty unique

[Leafpool2]

They always cast attractive actors to play him

[Mmmaybe]

Sometimes "mysterious" people are intriguing.

[cherryphi82]

I have no stinking idea!

[OralMayhem]

Really? Who? Your gross.

[curiousnorway]

It's the phantom of the opera fangirls who says he's sexy, handsome and hot.

[Anonymous]

Not this guy who plays phantom.

[BronzedAdonis]

says who?

[curiousnorway]

Many fangirls (they're calling themselves phangirls) finds him sexy and hot.

[curiousnorway]

They said so.
