Equa, I wish you were in NorCal, it is SO much better up here, not to mention much cooler....
(I know, Copeland does not live here, but that is the only advantage of living in SoCal...)
Elijah Wood is def. an acquired taste, and I for one hate LOTR since I was forced by husband and friends to suffer through the three snoozers (Sean Astin is a good actor, but YAAAAWWWNNN).
Stewart appeals to any gender because he was blessed with everything under the sun (huge talent, sheer brilliance, quirky sense of humour, sharp intelligence and drive, gohgeousness in every fibre of his body and soul). He is like Bowie in that.
I do not know if Sting has many male fans, but I imagine Stew and And have more.
