Did someone say cocktail? According to a report by Reuters, Moscow has over 40 advertised strip clubs, and a third offer male strippers. "The average western woman, if she were to go to a male striptease, would be considered somewhat of a pervert," says a 29 year-old American teacher while watching scantily-clad men dance. "Here women appreciate the male body. There's no concern about traditional values." Vladimir Gagarin, the manager of one club (the English name of which is "Little Red Riding Hood") says the appeal is social and not sexual. "Girls come here to speak to each other, the bouncers, the waiters and the dancers heart to heart. They have a shoulder to lean on." A 26-year-old woman who declined to give her name agrees: "Sometimes we ask the dancers out and take them to dinner and coffee, it's a nice way to make friends." Haha, what big eyes you have!

And most of you were like, yeah, Matt Damon, he's alright, but when I think sexy, I think of... And the names poured in. Benicio Del Toro! Christian Bale! Adrien Brody! Eric Bana! Oh, and by the way, we totally love James Purefoy, Alan Rickman, Milo Ventimiglia, Peter Saarsgaard, Kevin McKidd, Bill Nighy, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, [Liev Schreiber -Ed.] Jonathan Pryce, Ewan McGregor, James Duval, Willem Dafoe, [David Strathairn. -Ed.] Joel McHale, Patrick Dempsey, Eric Balfour, Sean Connery, Adam Goldberg, Mark Ruffalo, and mmm, Takeshi Kaneshiro, but they're not on this poll. Maybe next time! Meanwhile, there are 22 SEXY and sweet pieces of man candy to choose from... and you only have one vote! Think carefully, hold your applause until the end, have fun!

(Personally, I want to stuff Benicio's ballot box, if you know what I mean.)
