Just wanted to point out an example of my all time favorite Male example from my childhood... Jordan Catallano (sp?) played by Jared Letto from the TV show My So Called Life. He was just this idea of perfection that the main female character played by Claire Danes was obsessed with. She didn't really know him and could never really understand his point of view yet he was a huge influence to her and someone that she worshiped from a far and his mystery was actually more attractive.
