Sean

As you may well have noticed, we've had an increasing number of Australian boys on the site in the past year or two.

Resisting any temptation to make a bad joke and say that it's because we know you like to see more of what's "down under", the real reason is because we've got a very hard working talent scout over there who keeps coming up with some of the most mouth-watering boys we've ever seen.

And I think you'll agree that, the more we see of them, the clearer it becomes that there's a certain Australian "type".

Sun-bleached blond hair (that's the climate for you)…

Lithe, lean physiques (they're a nation of keep-fit fanatics)…

Great tans (all that outdoors to go walkabout in)…

And happy-go-lucky dispositions (wouldn't you be pretty pleased if you lived there too?)…

But this week's Aussie boy breaks the mould.

He's dark…

Rather on the pale side…

Prefers the indoors and snuggling up with a good book (or a bad boyfriend!) to the outdoor life…

And, when it comes to his disposition, it's definitely "sultry" rather "sunny".

No, Sean's certainly not your average Australian boy.

But he is, nonetheless, definitely and entirely suitable for HMBoys.com.

He may begin by looking just a little quizzical about exactly what it is that we expect from him…

But, with just a little encouragement from our indefatigable talent scout, he soon cottons on…

In fact, Sean turns out to be a remarkably fast learner…

To tell the truth, we only have a single criticism of Sean.

And it's a particularly ironic one, given that we got him to pose naked.

He has a poor sense of fashion.

No, he didn't turn up wearing the iconic Aussie hat with the corks dangling from the brim.

Or sporting a pair of shorts that more appropriate for a bonfire than for Bondi Beach.

It's just those awful socks which he (and our scout/photographer) forgot to take off!
