To catch up with the "why is Snape a sex god?" issue:
It's true that reading the books, there's no reason to think Snape is sexually attractive. JKR has never written a single thing that would encourage a reader to think that. (Even things like his black robes billowing behind him--which sends all of us into paroxysms--is probably meant just to imply how threatening he is.) It's only because Snape is played by the extremely hot Alan Rickman that females are obsessed with the character. They may imagine Alan-as-Snape younger, or thinner, but I don't think I've read a steamy fanfic that didn't seem to me to be about AR. BUT: since there's a fair bit of evidence that JKR wanted AR to play Snape, what if AR always was Snape to JKR? So, the total hotness was already built in to the character (in her mind), and didn't have to be specifically mentioned (esp. in a kids' book). Also, the books are written from the perspective of a teenaged boy who hates Snape. I wouldn't be surprised, though, to find out in Book 6 or 7 that Snape has a romantic past that surfaces for some reason--that he's Victor Krum's father, or whatever. __________________

I disagree.
My Snape looks absolutely NOTHING like Alan. ( <3 Alan). Alan is NOT Snape, to me. He is simply the incredibly gorgeous talented actor that plays Snape. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I don't know what it is about Snape, but he just IS sexy. I really think it boils down to how we actually picture him in our head. I mean, think about it. If we are all given one description of a person, but no image, we all create our own image. It's like cookies. The same recipe can taste different based on who baked it. It all depends on how you perceive it. Plus, we all have different opinions of attractive. Like Alan Rickman. I think he's sexy. Some people (crazy people!) don't. Oh, and by the way, My!Snape looks *most* like Michael Wincott - - although Michael is missing...something that I can't quite pinpoint. __________________

Michael Wincott does kind of look like my pictured Snape (the cheek bones especially) more then Alan, but even he is a bit off. My Snape is abnormally pale and lean almost effeminate, but his arms have very strong muscles. His legs are long and very manly! Just enough dark hair to be fetching and well toned. I picture is nose slightly more narrow and of coarse hooked. His eyes so dark that it's scary to look them straight on. I picture him towering above others in his long black robes looking frightening! *shivers in a good way* __________________

Only if you admit that Snape is madly in love with ME.

Why the hell is Crookshanks draped on Snape's shoulders?!
[img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] Man, if that is supposed to be a mink, I suspect that a 5 year old drew that! [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] *sigh* I hope we get new pics of Alan/Snape soon [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] BTW, did you guys know that Alan wears leather trousers in real life? Apparently he wore one when he went to dinner at this restaurant! meow! [img]smilies/drool.gif[/img] Where are the paparazzi when we need them? [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] __________________
