A professor at
Hogwarts in the
Harry Potter books and movies. Notable because of his dubious allegiance to both the good and evil forces in the story. And also because, contrary to what the author's intentions probably were, some fans find him sexually attractive. The actor Alan Rickman being cast as Snape in the movies may have had a bearing on this.
person 1: Snape is so evil.
person 2: No way. There's clues that show he's good.
person 3: Well I bet Snape's good... in bed.
A wildly popular Australian musical group that targets toddlers, fashioned after
The Monkees and
H.R. Pufnstuff. The characters are played by attractive middle-aged men, which also appeals to the mothers of the toddlers. Often assumed as gay by those outside their target audience (the fact that their target audience is of an age that doesn't comprehend sexual orientation makes the issue irrelevant; however four of them are married with children - yet another facet that makes them attractive to moms).
Greg and Anthony Wiggle never go out into the audience during a Wiggles concert because they might cause a stampede of horny moms.
Although their songs have names such as "Rock-A-Bye Your Bear," and "Can You Point Your Fingers And Do The Twist," The Wiggles have produced some of the best contemporary pop music.

A noticeably dated or worn model or issue of any object, tool or device that is still heavily used by the owner. A nickname with either affectionate or disgusted overtones for such a device.
Originates from combining the word automobile and the idea that antique machinery often had to be hand-cranked to operate.
Someone smashed my
cell phone against a wall, so now I'm back to using the ol' crankmobile.
