Ever since "Fifty Shades of Grey" gained popularity women everywhere have been discussing Christian Grey, the fictional kinky, sexy and confident billionaire. Fans can't wait for the character to be cast in real life. Out of all the characters in the whole book he is the probably the most buzzed about. His name has taken over social media with fan pages, unofficial Twitter profiles, Facebook pages and tweets with women expressing their interest in snagging their very own Grey.
Why are women so in love with the main character? E.L. James was able to tap into the fantasies of women and create a man who many ladies dream of. There are possibly hundreds of reasons why the billionaire is so damn lovable but here are a few.
He's hot: Let's start with the obvious, Christian Grey is hot. From Anastasia Steele's description - and other women's reactions - Grey is physically beautiful. He has the dreamy eyes, the killer smile and the toned body. In the book, girls swoon over his good looks. The one thing that makes him even hotter is that he is completely unaware of how good-looking he really is. He doesn't use his smile to get by in life, he's humble and that only adds to his charm.
He's a freak: Every woman, whether they admit it or not, wants a guy who will push them to their sexual limit, whatever that limit may be. Grey isn't only kinky but he's passionate and seductive.
He gives Anastasia Steele his full attention: When Steele is in the room with Grey, he doesn't pay attention to any other woman. He gives her his full, undivided attention. He pays attention to her and listens to her.
He's successful: He has accomplished a lot for only 28-year-old, which is another turn on for most women. It means he has goals and he knows what to do to accomplish those goals. He's his own boss and even though he can be a tough ass to his employees, whatever he's doing is working for him and his business.
He spoils Anastasia Steele: He is trying to give the world to the shy college student. What women wouldn't want a guy to spoil her and give her the world - or at least offer it?
He has flaws: Nobody is perfect. No matter how near-perfect Christian Grey might appear he does have flaws which probably makes him that much more relatable to readers.
Does he exist in real life? That is the question many women want to know. Constantly people tweet about finding a boyfriend similar to Grey. The closest most women will get to the real-deal is watching the movie "Fifty Shades of Grey" and there are several actors vying for the role of a lifetime.
Fans were shocked when it was revealed that Ian Somerhalder and Garrett Hedlund were out of the running but Henry Cavill and Matt Bomer both remain as top contenders and fan favorites.
Why do you think women love Christian Grey so much?
