From the age of 12-16, when DS went off the air, I found myself lusting after Barnabas--and Jonathan Frid, the man who portrayed him.  He did something to my teenage hormones, revving them up to dangerous boil.  I fantasized (I will NOT give details) constantly.  Then again, I was a sad teenager with an unhappy home life and escaping to DS and the lust I felt for Barnabas/Jonathan kept me going.  

His charisma affected me--that voice, those clothes, his urbane manner and his unique, handsome-homely face.  Barnabas, to me WAS sexy, very much so, and now, at the advanced age of 48, I still see what attracted me.  

And that photo of Frid as Edmund in SEIZURE--oh, damn, it's torrid enough here, don't make me melt!!!

Love, Robin

for me my dears... the reason barnabas is soooo sexy is because he is such a snappy dresser.  i'm sorry guys the jeans dragging down your legs or the messy t-shirts just don't work for me.

 Amen to that!

While I hope that "most" men (in general) are not homophobes, here in this forum I think this is certainly not the case. And conversely, if a man is not willing to discuss other mens' desirability, I don't think that necessarily makes him a homophobe. JMO.  :)


And if you're a straight male, how can you discuss Barnabas' desirability since you don't desire males?

However, speaking as a SM, I think B does have classical good looks, and his sophisticated and charming demeanor is a breath of fresh air.  That given, I don't blame women for finding him sexy -- J. Depp on the other hand is another story! :)

I personally found Barnabas handsome, though not exactly a sex symbol. But he sure was nice on the eyes. ;)

Entrancing, mesmerizing, romantic...but not "sexy"...that's a teeny-bopper term, and JF is a man--ALL man!

Lest there be any doubt, note that boy band alum Justin Timberlake has taken it upon himself to bring sexy back.  ;D

I clearly recall watching the show in '67, 11 years old, and thinking Frid was "cute".
Not sexy, but cute.

Six years later I realized I was gay, but I suspect that thinking Frid was cute was an early sign!!

Ok, I'm choosing this thread to make my first appearnce here at the board. I joined some time ago but just haven't had the time to post. Here's my take on the question... Now, I may be in the minority here but I thought Barnabas was very sexy when he kidnapped Maggie and the whole "You will be Josette and marry me" type of thing. I've never really thought of him as physically attractive but in those scenes I did catch myself breathing harder and rooting for Barnabas and not Maggie. There have been a few other times in the series when I did, for a moment or two find myself attracted to him. Such as that moment in 1840 when he [spoiler]almost bites Julia.[/spoiler] What can I say? I think vampires in generally are incredibly sexy, and Barnabas did have that fabulous vioce and manner about him that was very sexy even if he appearance may not have been.

P.S. I'm much more of a Quentin girl,lol. :)
