You may be handsome....

[Recursion]

but you are not young Rutherford B. Hayes handsome.



I mean, I'm not gay, but if my wife got with him I'd be like "details?"

[DFW]

1. My wife has nothing against older guys

But someone born in 1822 is probably not going to a threat to me any time in the immediate future.

2. If my wife got together with a 197 year old I would want details too.

4. Interesting facts about RBH...

Rutherford Birchard Hayes (October 4, 1822 – January 17, 1893) was the 19th president of the United States from 1877 to 1881, having served also as an American representative and governor of Ohio. Hayes was a lawyer and staunch abolitionist who defended refugee slaves in court proceedings in the antebellum years.

From Wikipedia.

The republicans today would call him a socialist.

5. Wow, stunningly gorgeous and a liberal abolitionist to boot!

They just don't make 'em like that anymore!

On edit: Even though he ran as a republican, by today's standards he would be considered a liberal. "Hayes believed in meritocratic government and equal treatment without regard to wealth, social standing or race."

6. He almost looks like a modern actor dressed up for a period film.

Most men from that era usually look like they are from that era, but he could give any Hollywood heartthrob today a run for his money.

He is just stunningly handsome. *swoon*
