Is Michelle Rodruiquez good-looking?

[MrMan]

I remember watching Lost one season. They had this tough-looking, tough acting chick on there. I found the character off-putting, and the woman seemed a bit masculine and unattractive to me personally. I mean, she's not hideous... maybe a solid 5 or 4.99999 on may scale of personal attractiveness.

I was surprised to see that she got a re-occurring role in the Fast and Furious movies. I have seen a few of those, and she's Vin Diesel's character's girl friend. I figure they wanted a tough girl for his girlfriend, but I remember when triple X came out some women were saying they found Vin Diesel hot, so I'm wondering if some people find his on-screen girlfriend to be attractive. I looked that up the other day after seeing a scene from a Fast and Furious movie and some people thought she was attractive.

I realize men have different preferences. I'm just wondering if my tastes are a bit atypical is all. Good for her if some men like her looks, I suppose.

[MrMan]

no opinions?

She's fine, she is definitely above average compared to women that are around and she is a good actress which I suppose counts for it. That isn't a good pic so here are some better pics.





Her schtick is an all action girl, she is quite masculine, she isn't there for the glamour, she is there to be nice looking enough but do all the action bits where it can look somewhat plausible. The older she gets, the more butch and dyke like she is going to look.

Also, the last thing she is going to care about is if 'men like her' because she is openly lesbian.

I had no idea she was lesbian.... but she looks like someone who could be.

I'm just not seeing what the particularly attractive features are. She looks kind of tough and masculine for a woman, and did when she was young. The character on Lost was kind of off-putting, but I'm just talking about the looks. I do get her fitting the action star look. She fits that well, at least as she got lean and wirey, and she's probably an actress whose been successful just being type-casted. She got into a ridiculously over-sequeled franchise and did well with that.

I also did not like something about Cindy Crawford's looks that looked sort of tough or masculine, and she was a supermodel. I've got nothing against her, and I see, body-wise, why she was popular.

I'm guessing it's one of those cases where my own preferences depart from that of the majority or a large segment of men. If a woman has a feature that is somewhat masculine, it's offputting for me. I don't usually find big square chins diminish a woman's look for example, and other men might not care.
