Here are definitions for “man crush” and “girl crush” straight from the Urban Dictionary and Wikipedia.

Man crush, also known as bromance- 1. When a straight man has a "crush" on another man, not sexual but kind of idolizing him.

2. A bromance or "man-crush" is a close but non-sexual relationship between two men, a form of homosocial intimacy.

Girl crush- Feelings of admiration and adoration which a girl has for another girl, without wanting to shag said girl. A nonsexual attraction, usually based on veneration at some level.

*A girl crush is pretty much the same as a “man crush”.

Would you believe that “man crush” was discussed in the news at one time, specifically MSNBC? Here is the article. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8406828/

You may share images of your man or girl crush, but please keep it clean.

Yup, I don't see how we can't thats why we are here.
But for me, pretty close to my best friend, we go way back and through thick and thin. My girlfriend understands. She also understands my man crush on Shawn Michaels and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Just the two most awesome guys on the planet.
Side note, all of Arnold's movies are based on his real life experiences. With the exception of last action hero and junior. Those were about money.

I have one on Bale, not gonna deny that.
I only had two in school, one was with a guy I went through the whole of Secondary School with, the other I met in 6th form, we were close, if I were actually homosexual and they were who knows, it's just being comfortable though.

I wonder if anyone has ever told John Davison (of EGM fame) that he looks a little like David Hayter.

I hear ya. Well, I used to have one on him. Not for his looks, either - he just seemed to be a bit of a fun-lovin' tweaker a while ago (witness his Jackass cameo for proof). Now Ange seems to have done this to him:

No, as far as looks go, it's Ryan Reynolds. Although you could substitute the word 'Davis' for 'Reynolds' and I'd be equally as happy.

He recently had a little article thing-y in WIRED, he still seems like a pretty cool guy to me.

@CowMuffins: I'm not saying Brad's not still cool, but I just think he's lost that little punky spark he used to have, the one that made him seem slightly dangerous. I really shouldn't begrudge the change, I guess. It's a bit hard of me to think a guy's gone soft because he's older and more mature and has more responsibility in his life.

See wait a minute, this is pure nonsense. At some point, you just respect and enjoy what a person does. I don't have a non-sexual crush on Dave Chappelle because he makes me laugh, I just find him funny, as I do a number of others. I prefer his brand of comedy and I may even enjoy his personality, but fine.

So, I enjoy the site, the staff, the bombcast, and I think everyone is funny and entertaining, but after I turn the podcast or video off, I'm not thinking about what these guys are doing or not doing. I suppose if YOU are, then fine, but that doesn't represent a "bromance" so much as a surplus of time.

Seriously, what guy likes another guy to the point where he wishes to be him? I've felt down on myself at times, but I've never looked at anyone else like, "man, that guy is great, I need to get into what he's into" That is what women do (seriously).

I'm just saying, you can respect what people do and even like them (your friends for instance) without wanting to imitate them or fawning over them. The guy above me used the term faggot, but even faggots have a code, but in essence it is faggot behavior, because this is really an appearance thing. When you hear dudes talk, like, if they are discussing an author or filmmaker, they "like" or "respect" him...if it is an actor, they have a "man crush."

My point is, anyone claiming that a "man crush" isn't sexual or at least based on some bit of physical attracton, is full of shit...or they have no personality, either way.

I know, that's all I'm saying, let us just be honest about it, a "man crush" really means some basketball diaries, "sucking penis in the bathroom" crush. Some Midnight Cowboy shit going on, ya'll some pecker grabbers, sound like True Romance:

Ah, now i know the difference between best friends and a man crush. i used to think people just said man crush to sound more metrosexual which i guess is 'in'. anyway my man crush choice goes to Matthew Good. he's a musician, and a darn great one at that.

@Vankya_Karamazov:

You crack me up. XD Dave Chappelle very much can be a "man crush" for you because if you look up to him and enjoy what he does, in this case comedy, then he can be an idol and/or "man crush." :P I just want to let you know that a "man crush" is more of an idol, perhaps someone you want to be best friends with, or someone who you would want to look like; a "man crush" is not something like "if you were gay, who would you bang?" because it's not supposed to be sexual. :P Please refer to the definitions and links I provided in the first post to see the different definitions for a "man crush".

Anyways, thanks for sharing with what you had to say.

@HandsomeDead:

Please refer to the definitions and links I provided in the first post to see the different definitions for a "man crush". You'll see that it is not supposed to be sexual or gay, but more of who your idol is. Perhaps someone you would want to be friends with, or even perhaps someone you want to look like would be example of a "man crush."
