Slews of "average" gays message and hit on men way out of their league, but there's a method to their delusion: sometimes, it works. And sometimes, perfect men hit on
them.Exhibit A: gorgeous Tab Hunter, a closeted '50s movie star.

Tab was stunningly handsome by every definition of the day (actually German, he was the Aryan ideal), 6' plus of boyish, then manly hunk who, if you saw the film, had a definite type, the most famous and best-looking of which were probably "Psycho's" Anthony Perkins and "Planet of the Ape's" Roddy McDowell. His 2015 documentary "Tab Hunter: Confidential" revealed all his boyfriends to be this particular type - sometimes cerebral, often goofy-cute, and
always nebbishy, shorter and twinky.
So keep on phishing hot guys with mass messaging, fellas, 'cause you never know. A sampling of Tab's type:
