Bill Gates, 2nd-Most Desirable Man in China

Bill Gates: Chinese Idol

Despite the general hatred toward Microsoft this country tends to exude, it's hard not to admire Bill Gates, a meek guy who started from scratch and turned himself into the richest man in the world ($60 billion at last count). However, the Chinese are taking that admiration to a whole new level according to a poll from 'Self' magazine. Bill Gates was chosen as the second most desirable sperm donor by Chinese women, beating out Brad Pitt and David Beckham.

But, Gates couldn't capture the top slot. That honor went to 45 year-old Chinese actor/singer Andy Lau. You might (not) remember him from such films as 2002's 'Golden Chicken' and 2003's 'Running on Karma.' And, of course, who can forget 1992's classic 'GameBoy Kids'?
