I noticed that average male hotness ranked last, even behind non-humans of all varieties. In other words, iguanas and tree frogs were considered more attractive, on average. Ergo, I wouldn’t let this 4th place ranking go to your head.
Oh, I was drunk too, which is why I forgot to vote. Had I voted I would have selected Ann Coulter as the hottest scientist, as she seems to know more about origins of the species than a bunch of beardy-guys with fancy book-learnin’ degrees. Score one more for God’s team!
but, but … PZ implied not to take it seriously. so …
… that means everyone that voted for PZ didn’t really know him, at least as presented en blog. (sorry, i don’t know French.) maybe the results would be different if they did?
yeah, otherwise, i think it’s all lust for the opposite gender.
now, to do this properly, we need a random digit dialing thingy and record the gender of the people doing the choosing. that means either Gallup, or some poor upper class statistics seminar run primarily by overworked grad students.
guess which the budget can afford?

Obviously no one from Florida voted for you, because they were too busy voting for Kathryn Harris … or maybe that was just Jesus.

You have to see PZ sometime when he’s washing his car in his daisy-dukes and sandals with his t-shirt tied in a knot over his belly. That’s what everyone was thinking of when they voted for him. Intellect schmintellect.
For the next trick, let’s do an anti-evolution hot-or-not. I can’t think of anyone I’d vote for as even remotely attractive. Shame on you John. I have to wipe the snot off my computer now.
Sheesh, was I the only heterosexual male that actually voted for male photos? I would have thought that rational scientists could get beyond our socializations… then again, that was one sexy ape. And the black circles making an illusion of a box. That’s sooo hot!
Yours is definitely the best.
The rest of the bloggers were either sleeping or talking about things not related to science.
Good work! Keep it up! You have my support!
We just can’t get that 1990 = 1970 picture from a few days back out of our heads…

What am I doing at #4?
Well, you probably should have been higher, but you know the amount of randomness that goes into these things.

I tended to vote for the human, rather than designs. Even an old guy with a 70s handlebar moustache is more appealing to me than any of a thousand nearly identical patterns. At least I’d have interesting company.
Or maybe I just find kitsch hilarious.
Lowksays
Don’t try the False Modesty thing, PZ. You’re hot and you know it.

I never could get the pictures to show up, no matter what browser I used. Hmpf.

Probably just a negative overflow error, PZ…

It’s your mind, not your body, that we all lust after.

PZ,
If it makes you feel better, I was in fact drunk … but I still didn’t vote for you.

Ann Coulter as the hottest scientist
my head just exploded.
Bronze Dog says
You must have been REALLY drunk.
Zeno says
Have we all forgotten PZ’s shameless flaunting of himself? I’ll bet that’s what did it.
There is also some evidence that math professors are going to get much prettier in the future, but probably not what you would have expected.

Martin Christensen says
So, a diversity of animals rank higher in sexiness than most science type lads. At least now I know why I had such a difficult time with the ladies…

PZ,
You did well considering you are handicapped by being a bearded male. And you can change both, if you feel the need to improve ranking…
spork_incident says
I did it for the squids and I’d do it again!

dveej says
Some of us have thought for a long time now that you are hot, PZ. And a subset of us don’t drink.
Great nipple pic, BTW. Looking forward to the nude series.
aiabx says
It’s not so much that you’re hot, PZ, as much as other science bloggers are even less hot. Still, it’s an accomplishment of some kind.
