Estar como un pan

Estar como un pan
 
IN ENGLISH?
EStar como un pan means to be a hunk, to be really attactive.

I haven't heard this term in a while. Now I realize it was a compliment:cool:...that was then. I hope this pan hasnt gone too stale and moldy.

In English we say strapping, but that usually means a robust man (as in a strapping young man). You may hear the word adonis to discribe a very handsome man, but not often.
These days stud muffin is used by some.:yuck:

Well just 'stud' too though that has a kind of sexual implication as well. :rolleyes:

A dish.. :D

Not to be confused with "ser un pan" or "ser un pan de dios", which means to be a good person. :D

Does this exression only refer to men? I think she would hit you with her handbag if you called a girl a hunk. :yuck: I would probably call her a peach instead :love:.
