I kid you not: Illinois “easily” voted “sexiest state”

Posted in:

* From some outfit called Big 7 Travel

Look, some states are sexier than others – at least, that’s what the results of our survey of the sexiest states in America is proving. We asked our 1.5 million social audience to get an insight into where you’ll find the America’s most beautiful people.

Survey respondents were given no further specifications of the term ‘sexy’, so interpretation of the word was up to them.

‘Sexy’, according to the fail-safe Merriam-Webster dictionary, is classified as “generally attractive or interesting”. While beauty may be only skin deep, it’s probably little consolation to the unlucky states that have been voted as the least sexy. Sorry, Nebraska.

* Illinois finished… first?

1st. Illinois

And the top spots of the sexiest states in America? Illinois takes first place and easily topped our poll for 2019. Who could disagree with this? It’s no wonder that so many of the celebrities, sportspeople and singers that come from here are outrageously attractive.

OK. I guess we’ll take it.

  1. You guess?
    With hotties like Tillman, Profit and Spanky Baise can there be a doubt that IL wins hands down?

  5. Apparently the voters did not attend the State Fair.

  11. You wanna feel even more attractive? Visit Wisconsin.

  12. They must be taking into account the secession of the Bloc Heads and all the aggrieved, over-taxed millionaires who have fled the state.

  13. Sorry, had to do it.

  14. From the website:

    “You might recognise: Ernest Hemingway, Scout LaRue Willis”

    I can say with quite certainty this was the first time in human history the phrase “Ernest Hemingway Scout LaRue Willis” has ever been uttered.

  25. Who knew that California, Atlanta’s metro area, and Dallas just couldn’t keep up with Illinois in the looks department? Glaucoma can strike at any age , I guess.

    Comment by Nick Name Tuesday, Sep 10, 19 @ 1:37 pm

  27. In other news Big 7 travel will be having their annual shareholder meeting at the Hyatt hotel in Chicago. Majority shareholder JB Pritzker will be sending a proxy for the meeting.

    Comment by Boone's is Back Tuesday, Sep 10, 19 @ 1:40 pm

  28. Did someone at Big 7 Travel get ’sexiest’ mixed up with ’sexist?’

    After all, I do live in the Eastern bloc.

    Comment by Don't Bloc Me In Tuesday, Sep 10, 19 @ 1:53 pm

  29. I’m doing my part to keep Illinois sexy every day when I go outside. But I’m modest about it. :)

    Comment by revvedup Tuesday, Sep 10, 19 @ 1:54 pm

  30. Well, that’s just foolish.

    Comment by Streator Curmudgeon Tuesday, Sep 10, 19 @ 1:59 pm

    Comment by Northsider Tuesday, Sep 10, 19 @ 2:39 pm

  34. In the right light, at the right angle, and perhaps the set of Chicago Fire…this is probably possible. Botox after a few years are killing the coastal sexiness I guess.

    Comment by A guy Tuesday, Sep 10, 19 @ 4:02 pm

  35. Are you sure they didn’t mean “sexist” ?

    Comment by Ed Higher Tuesday, Sep 10, 19 @ 4:06 pm

  36. We’re tops in sex appeal and corruption? Correlation much?

    Comment by Wensicia Tuesday, Sep 10, 19 @ 4:14 pm

  37. Conclusion: The participants in the Illinois tax exodus weren’t a very attractive lot.
