Secrets to Finding Your Own Idris or Denzel

How to Find Your Own Idris
By · Updated October 28, 2020
01
Be Fully Adaptable

Idris and Denzel could easily be comfortable in a hoodie and Timbs, on the block choppin‘ it up with the fellas or in a custom Tom Ford suit, ready to accompany you to the office holiday party. In other words, they’re dynamic. Be dynamic. Show off every side of your sexy wonderful self.

02
Have Swagger

Just the look on Idris’ or Denzel’s face exudes “I got this.” Confidence is sexy, pure and simple. Be confident.

03
Don’t Be a Fool

There is a better chance of Herman Cain winning the 2013 Presidency than someone outsmarting Idris or Denzel on film. They convey intelligence. Be intelligent and show off your smarts.

04
Love Dem Babies

Every fan of Denzel knows about his active involvement with his children. Being a good parent exhibits several traits, all of which are compelling. Good parenting is sexy. If you have a child, be the best parent you can.

05
Have A Million Dollar Smile

Warm, inviting, and comforting. I’ve seen those and many more adjectives to describe these brothas’ smiles. A strong natural smile is key to attraction. Be a wearer of smiles.

06
Kick Some Butt

I don’t think Idris or Denzel take a movie or TV role unless they can physically dominate someone. Being a protector is a valued trait, and not only for men. Be someone willing to defend yourself and your beliefs.

07
Walk on the Wild Side

Idris and Denzel often play character roles the ride the line between good and evil, and for that they’re loved more than simply being one or the other. What attracts people to them in this scenario is the suspense around not knowing what side they’re loyal to. Be suspenseful.

08
Stand Out In the Crowd

I’ve often heard American women say Idris gets extra “points” because of his British accent. I read into this that we put a premium on people based on their uniqueness. Be unique.

09
Inspire Him

It’s one thing to want to “be with” someone but it’s a whole level higher when you can identify the type of person you want your child to be like. Often times, I hear Idris & Denzel’s name pop up. Be inspiring.

10
Look the Part

“Easy on the eyes” is a ridiculous understatement when referring to Idris and Denzel. They’re attractive, they know it, and they leverage it. Be aware of how you’re perceived.

11
Be a Go-Getter

On and off screen, these brothas continue to climb the ladder of success. Denzel reaching a second Oscar or Idris becoming the first black James Bond may have felt unrealistic years ago, but now these goals stand within grasp. Who doesn’t love a winner. Be ambitious.
