Ladies... * * Kirk or Spock? * * Who is sexier?

LOL
Pictures and cookies!
Howcome? I thought Spock had the edge; he always did in days of yore. Kirk started with a definite handicap.It's cracking me up.
And Quinto, in general, has the fangirl internet edge too, given his popularity before the movie came out. I've noticed a "score one for the little guys!" reaction when he won a poll before. I don't know why, he's obviously a good looking man with a large fanbase playing a very well-liked character who loves his mama, is loyal to his woman, and has The Angst. Of course he's popular with the ladies. (Even though I still don't feel the attraction myself, it is only logical that plenty of people would.)
I have never paid attention to the words to Circus, but I like it now Oh, well.
Another Spock vote.
1) Spock
2) McCoy
3) Chekov
4) Kirk
And just because, a few ZQ-licious .gifs I made recently (I plan to make some ST-related ones, too--forgive me, I watched all 3 seasons of Heroes this week):
Cute with and without the eyebrows. LOL. Though, the Spock ears are a definite plus. As a genre fan, pointed ears, fangs, etc... are always hot.
On TOS, however, my list is a Spock/McCoy tie (Nimoy's Spock is the most interesting character, but I honestly find Kelley's McCoy more attractive). Shatner, even at his peak, does nothing for me. Though I find George Takei's Sulu to be way worse than Shatner's Kirk.
Put together:
1) Spock (Quinto)
2) McCoy (Urban)
3) Chekov (Yelchin)
4) McCoy (Kelley)
5) Spock (Nimoy)
1) Spock
2) McCoy
3) Chekov
4) Kirk

I've been a lurker, but I registered to vote for Kirk. I was more of TNG fan previously, but Chris Pine's Kirk, in addition to being sexy, just totally made the movie for me. Urban is second on my sexy list.
I'll submit a picture for my captain:

One of my favorite scenes with Spock's "out of the chair." Kirk just looked like he belonged there already.
I really liked Quinto as Spock, but I agree with those who said they find him asexual. I thought the Spock/Uhura romance was sweet, but not particularly sexy.

^ Welcome Laila!
What You Guys Said. All of it.
Who would have thought, 40 years later, the only Emmy winner in the bunch would be Shatner. Twice!
Makes my head hurt.
I prefer Shatner's Kirk, but I am quite fond of Pine's blue eyes.
Since menage-à-trois isn't an option and I do like guys who are blond and blue eyed, then I'll pick Chris Pine's Kirk. Also, personality wise, I prefer Kirk over Spock.
PS: May I ask why McCoy isn't on the list either? If my doctor was THAT sexy, I would get myself down for a weekly check-out.

Oh, don't worry. Mc Coy's getting plenty of love here at the BBS.
I had to delurk to vote for Kirk (and Chris Pine) too.
I think I find Kirk sexier because of Chris' performance. It's not just that he's gorgeous, but I like what he brings to the character. Even though Kirk is cocky and flirty, there's also no doubt that a lot of that bravado is a show. I loved how Chris shows the vulnerable side of Kirk whenever his father is mentioned. That's a really open wound for him, and it came through several times during the movie. He also has a genuine compassion for his fellow crewmates. Kirk, despite his dislike of Spock, really did not like the suggestion from Spock Prime that he had to compromise the younger Spock. You could see it in Kirk's eyes that he wasn't happy about it.
I think Quinto's Spock is very attractive, but I don't find him hot. Chris Pine's Kirk just leaps off the screen.

Welcome, Maxum! 
I got ticket to see the movie for a 4th time with my parents tonight. *sigh* I have missed my pretty pretty boys.

Hi Jeri! You're making me sound like a Bird of Prey (LOL).
And Crusher Disciple, thanks for pointing out those two threads. Dr McCoy deserves the love he gets (both the TOS and the 2009 version!).
Also, to Maxum, you've put my thoughs into words. Chris Pine really is an awesome actor and I loved how he managed to make Kirk his own without ruining our image of Shatner's Kirk (which was also awesome).
That said, I find Zach Quinto to be very sexy too...hence my urgent motion to have the menage-à-trois option in this poll.
