The 'Hot Dudes Reading' Instagram Offers Some Studious Eye-Candy
Vasiliki Marapas — February 10, 2015 — Pop Culture
Hot Dudes Reading is an Instagram account dedicated to handsome men who prefer literary classics to smartphone games when riding on public transit.
Sneaky, smartphone-wielding subway riders can submit images of any good-looking scholars they spot to the Instagram account, where they will instantly be paired with a clever caption. Case in point: one image of a floppy-haired young Romeo reads, "I’m sure he’s reading a collection of post-war Russian short stories, but really thinking of how he made love to his French girlfriend this morning and the gluten free toast they shared after. #marryme."
We can all appreciate beauty, but what are good looks without a brain? Enjoy photos of these academic hunks immersed in various texbooks, novels and collections of poetry. Swoon!
