Always entertaining, Jamie Keiles, of\u00a0 the Seventeen Magazine Project<\/a> and Teenagerie<\/a>, offered the age distribution of the “hot guys” profiled in the June issue of Seventeen <\/em>magazine.\u00a0 This issue, after all, was the “Hot Guys of Summer” issue<\/a>.\u00a0 Fun!<\/p>\n

Keiles writes that:<\/p>\n

…only two of the guys, Justin Bieber and Nick Jonas, were even in the age range for reading the magazine, ages 12 to 19. What I found weirder, though, is that the largest groups of males featured in the article fell into the two oldest age ranges. This means its possible that the oldest male hottie, Charlie Bewley, could have fathered the youngest targeted Seventeen reader, age 12, when he was 17 years old.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Men and women do marry asymmetrically, with women, on average, marrying men who are taller, more educated, who make a bit more money, have a bit more status, and are a bit older.\u00a0 The average age of marriage for women is 25 and the average age for men is 27.\u00a0 So this is some evidence of early socialization to this idea.<\/p>\n

But there’s more…<\/p>\n

Not to be underestimated, Keiles asked the question that is on all of our minds: What percentage of hot guys are vampires or vampire-adjacent?<\/p>\n
