Gays name the “40 and older” male celebs they find incredibly attractive

When a Reddit user put out an all-call for “incredibly attractive” celebrities over age 40 in the r/AskGayMen subreddit, commenters had no trouble nominating hotties that have aged like fine wine…

…especially because many of those commenters are only attracted to 40-and-over gents. “I mean, is there anyone even hot under 40 anymore?” one person wrote. “It seems that 40 is the gateway to most men’s hottest phase.”

Another person wrote, “Guys under 40 are cute at best, lol.”

And a third commenter quipped, “Struggles in millennial to think of a celebrity under 40…”

Here are some of the “older” celebs that have these queer Redditors the most starstruck, arranged by age, along with the comments singing their praises.

Jamie Dornan, 41
