Hey, it's finally happened. I have created a yahoo-list!

Are you tired of grown men behaving like teenagers? Do you like yourLotR-men hot, manly and mature? Do you find yourself drooling overobscure Orc-actors and geeky special-effects guys? And are you happywith a conspicuous absence of the so-called pretty?

Then join this new list!

It's here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/manly_men/

It's called "Manly Men and Horny Orcs."

This is a list devoted to RPS, slash, fanfic and discussion of LotR menover 30, both cast and crew. Cut-off point is vintage 1970 or earlier (i.e. age 30 and older during filming in NZ). Anyone younger than thatcannot appear as a main character in a story; sorry: no Orlando and nohobbits (except for the stunt doubles, of course). Honorary 'manly men':any and all Orc-actors. Partly because I love them, partly because nothing is less pretty than an Orc, and partly because I don't knowmost of their ages...

Fics, pics and droolage, any rating, slash/het/gen, cross-overs (withother manly men): all are welcome, especially if it broadens ourhorizons beyond the mainstream men!

Note: You must be over 18 to join this group.

Be strong. Inhale deeply, hold for the count of 5, exhale. I know you can do it and send your Billy-lust to another list.

I still can't get over the fact that I founded a list that *excludes* Karl.

Sorry, I am mad. Billy is old enough, of course. The cut-off is 1970. Anyone born *before* then is fine, and Billy was. I just can't count. Am completely insane and mathematical troglodyte.

*slinks off, feeling silly*

I know. The Billy-love knows no bounds. But doesn't he have his own list somewhere? Or at least one he shares with the hobbits?

Um, hang on. I'm mad. Billy's old enough.

Hey, if you're in charge, does that mean we have to call you Miss?

I'll have to ponder this one. Maybe 'mistress'?

Bwuahahahah.

You have divined the true reason I founded this list. *cracks whip*

It was the boots what done it...

And are we your harem now, à la Gorn's Harem? (Only without quite so much swooning.)

Feel free to swoon.

Although,er, that might be taking it too far. I don't, after all, want to be one of those me-me-me list-mothers. I just like to feel in control. (But then of course I *so* am not as is proven by my very first posts in which I confused Billy's birthdate and thought that somebody born in 1968 was actually younger than somebody born in 1970.... Pisstress more likely.)

Ha! I knew the other evening when you were whittering on about wanting to be a listmom that it wouldn't be long before this happened! Sounds good to me! One thing, does this mean that these manly men and orcish orcs can't be shagging anyone younger? Or do they have to be inter-shagging?

Just wondering. *blows kisses*

Oh, I agonised about this for about 4 minutes. (You don't want to agonise *too* long about such matters, after all....) But in the end I opted for no-shagging-anyone-younger (now to define that...). Mainly, I confess, because I didn't want to be swamped with Viggorli.

And also to force people, incl. *myself*, to discover and explore some new guys. Otherwise it could just be: Dom/x, Lij/y, Dom/z, Lij/w. That's nothing new.

The worst thing about this list is that, *sob*, I've barred myself from *KARL*. How will I survive this? *throws herself on floor*

I suppose it will help me to think of it not as *my* list (a la quiseyes) but as just "a" list.

Huh.

Oh, that's what I figured. Just thought I'd better make sure. ;)

There, there, dear. You'll get over it. There are plenty of lists for Karl fics. *heh*

[livejournal.com profile] ktk has just kindly pointed out that Karl, benig ever so manly a man, can surely be exempt from the age rule. ;)

But of course, we wouldn't want the listmom to run roughshod over her own list rules simply because of her bizarre preference for one particular actor. *heh*
