“like an old-time movie star (without the latent homosexual tendencies).”
W-what! Okay; quite a few movie stars of yore did have homosexual relations - most of them where probably bi or closeted. Why do the cast ladies feel the need to mention it? I mean aren’t they just so enlightened - after all it’s been oh so “subtlety” mentioned; off-handily, that Damien Gayguy Gaypy might just be gay. So is she saying Erik would be less worthy of he love if he happened to find men desirable as well? Would that make him uglier; because everyone knows that’s all Zoey gives a shit about anyway!
WHY MENTION THAT AT ALL YOU IDIOTS!? IT SERVES NO POINT!
“Hugh Jackman (who is totally gorgeous for an old guy)”
I won’t say whether I think Hugh Jackman is attractive or not, but for some reason saying he’s hot for an “old guy” seems to annoy me. I mean I’ve commented on how some people can be attractive at an age when most think that people stop being attractive or even because or their age, but this comes off as despite being that age.
Also Erik’s niceness is treated as a footnote - why do so many sueauthors treat kindness as being second to appearance?

Once again I am sympathizing with Aphrodite; a rapist, yes her parents a cliche, but she's still more appealing than Zoey. And Erik; who’s nice, but has little personality (just a side effect of this story really) or focus time.
