we are witnessing the gentrification of the term "tumblr sexyman" in real time and it is extremely disappointing. like no, live-action white boy #265 played by ryan gosling isn't a tumblr sexyman. i can't believe i have to say this but if it wouldn't get you shoved into a locker it probably isn't a sexyman
THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYINGGGG
look i get what you're saying, i too would have been disappointed to se a blonde man win ok, but i kinda think you're confusing Tumblr sexyman with a hear me out, a hear me out is meant to be controversial and "get you shoved in a locker", while many of the major Tumblr sexymen have historicaly been average conventionally attractive white or white passing random men, have you forgotten David Tennant along with many other doctors? yeah, just a guy, like sure, a guy many people like, who has done plenty pretty cool things, but still, average conventionally attractive white or white passing guy ok, Misha Collins? Castiel?average conventionally attractive white or white passing guy, just a guy Jensen Ackles? guess what, just a guy, Sherlock bbc, (and watson)they're both just some guy, Loki from marvel? just some guy, bill cipher? sure, he didn't start as one , but guess what most fanart portrayed him as??? JUST A GUY in a top hat, the Oneceler, one of if not the very first one of the sexy men? TRULY just some guy
in conclusion, would i like us as a community to get weirder? yeah sure, but Historically, Tumblr sexymen have been average conventionally attractive white or white passing men with very very few irregularities in between them, and we can hardly pretend otherwise
