I woudn't go as far to say that all female fans like the band because of their looks, because it's not true. However in some people's case (some school girls for instance) it is definately evident. I'm not a huge fan of bra and pantie throwing, and sometimes I think that songs such as TYFLM or AALY encourages things like that. I'm a straight guy but I'm defintely aware that all BJ members are good looking guys. In their business it is a big advantage to be good looking. As well as being able to sing/perform you've to look right on camera. A lot of the new manufactured bands have very little talent at all. However they are all good looking acts that are aimed mainly at kids/teenagers and with a few catchy songs written for them they are very successful. Take Britanny for example. Does she write all her own songs? Nope. Is she a great singer? Hardly. Does she sing live? Hardly ever. Does she look good on camera? Hell yeah! That's why "artists" with no talent can be the biggest stars in the world, because they look good. In Bon Jovi's case, they write their own songs, are an acomplished band and nearly always play live. In that case being good looking has just helped them on their way.
