Over half of single gay men in Britain would date President-elect Barack Obama, making him the hottest world leader, according to a recent poll conducted on the British dating site gay-PARSHIP.co.uk. Spanish Prime Minister José Luis RodrÃguez Zapatero came in second at 19 percent. Among women, Irish President Mary McAleese (pictured) led the way, with 25 percent of lesbians saying they’d date her. Here’s the press release from Gillan Media Ltd, which contains the full rankings:
US President-Elect, Barack Obama, is the undisputed international superpower when it comes to gay love, with over half (52%) of Britain’s gay single men wanting to date him – according to a major approval poll out today. Irish President, Mary McAleese, tops the global lesbian love power rankings, bagging a quarter (25%) of the gay female vote.
Commander-in-Chief-in-Waiting Obama dominates the queer count, well ahead of similarly pro-gay left-wing Spanish PM, José Luis RodrÃguez Zapatero (19%) and Gallic charmer, French PM, Nicolas Sarkozy (12%). Occasionally topless knife-wielding tiger-stunning muscleman, Russian PM, Vladimir Putin (9%); Britain’s own dour Scots heavyweight, Gordon Brown (4%); and flamboyant Italian multi-millionaire media mogul-cum-PM, Silvio Berlusconi (3%) – are all left bringing up the rear, failing to secure even a tenth of the gay male mandate each. Amongst single lesbians, staunchly pro-gay Irish President, Mary McAleese, proves big-in-the-ballots against former kiwi PM, Helen Clark (22% – left office mid-polling), and Chilean President, Michelle Bachelet (18%). Finish President, redhead Tarja Halonen (15%), comes a surprise fourth; trailed by German Chancellor, Angela Merkel (11%), and the younger, sassier Ukrainian PM, Yulia Tymoshenko (9%).
