English Rugby player Ben Cohen recently made a quick trip to the US, and stopped by to have a beer with BRAVO executive/personality Andy Cohen. The two are not released, despite the shared last name. In fact, they are different in several ways. But despite that, they still find a way to get along. Check out the video.
So yes, they are both hot - I check out Ben's calendar every day, as it hangs on the wall.
Ben has been outspoken with his support of the LGBT community, both on and off the field. To find out more about the incredibly handsome sportsman, check out his official website here. This is not the first time Ben's been mentioned on this blog, check out here, too.
To me, this professional rugby player is just a remarkable man. He plays in a rough and tumble sport that I really don't understand. He is a marquis name who regularly lends his name and time to many great causes. He splits his time between training for his sport, actual game time, his wife and family, and still finds time to make personal appearances, speak out and be heard.
Cohen has also never shied away from supporting his gay fans, with fan appreciation evenings and speaking to LGBT issues on his Twitter and FaceBook accounts, as well as any other venue he has available to him. He does have a rather large gay fanbase, and after looking at the photos I am sure you can tell why. But with Ben, it goes beyond his startling good looks. He recently donated a signed jock strap for the UK charity Gay Men Fighting AIDS. Ben always supports LGBT Youth, as is evident in this clip posted by him on the topic of the recent suicides.

If you are someone, or know someone who might be feeling the effects of prejudice and bullying, here is the website for The Trevor Project. They have set up a hotline that can be reached at (866)488-7386. Share the number with those how you think might benefit, because the teenage years are hard enough without the additional issues discovering you are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender.
