Aragorn was my first on-screen crush. At the age of 6, I watched the Fellowship and just knew that this was the kind of man that had it all. He could swordfight, he was nimble, he was honorable, and of course, he was an absolute smoke show. Name one thing a man can do that's hotter than opening two doors at the same time into the great hall of Rohan? Exactly. There's nothing.
So while I was too young to fall in love (just yet), I knew in that moment that I wanted my future man to be king material. Not just a boyfriend, not just a husband, but the literal King of Men. Is that too much to ask? However, as I grew up, I realized all of the characters in LOTR have amazing qualities. Sam is brave, Faramir is diligent, Legolas is mysterious, Gimli is loyal, and even Gandalf's got a little somethin' somethin'.
When people say that only nerdy dudes living in their basements love Lord of the Rings, tell them that they're wrong, because I am no man! Just like Éowyn, shock them with the facts that ladies are obsessed with LOTR too.
