"Power is a great aphrodisiac"

That quote from Nobel Peace Prize winner and former head of the U.S. Department of State under two presidents, Henry Kissinger. It was a statement made by the diplomat extraordinaire in respect to his notoriety as a "ladies' man". As you can see, Mr. Kissinger, while a brilliant man of great influence, doesn't exactly embody the contemporary concept of physical fairness.



My contemplation of Mr. Kissinger's "way with the women", and his subsequent assertion as to the reasons for this, led me to look further into some of history's other noted "Casanovas"...




Benjamin Franklin




Albert Einstein


Calvert DeForest aka Larry "Bud" Melman


"The Elephant Man", Joseph Merrick


Chewbacca


Meatwad


Shit... I got nothin'.
