I need to get something off my chest and it makes a refreshing change from my bra after a long day.
I fancy Larry Lamb. I fancy Larry Lamb, even though he is 69 years old, has white hair and did squats on I'm a Celebrity that resembled a bizarre 'twerk'.
Even my own grandfather is younger than Larry, which is a bit weird now I've typed it into actual. blimmin. words. But there is something about him isn't there?! The way he saved Scarlett Moffatt from her capsized canoe? How he wore a beige suit unironically? How he just seems to have his shit together and knows what he wants in life? But wait, that's not even why he's in my top 10 guys of all time (oi, stop judging you).
I don't even know WHAT it is, but there's that something-something. When I find out what it is, I plan to bottle it up and make a fortune selling it in posh department stores.
The sexual attraction to Larry Lamb is something that has divided my friends. Half let out a mighty sigh of relief and whispered 'I thought it was just me!' and the latter, grab me by the shoulders, look me dead in the eyes and remind me he is '69 fucking years old' and send me an 'r u ok, hun' text, just to check I haven't lost the plot.
But when do men go from hot, silver-foxed sex symbols to platonic dad-like men we would high five at the pub? At what point does a man over 50, start reminding you of your dear pa, as opposed to someone you have the horn for? The line between the two is murky and no, before you ask, I don't have Daddy issues. I think.
Is it okay to fancy David Cameron a little bit? What about Robert Downey Jr? Where do we cross the line? THAT'S WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP, FOLKS.
Take our quiz and we can suss out who it's acceptable to outright fancy and who it's not.*
(*But just do you, as long as it's legal and consensual guys!)
