Male models vs actors

Doesn't matter how good looking a guy is - if the picture is boring it's not going to be as catching as an interesting picture of a man looking masculine/having character. Brando is full of character and looking classically masculine as hell in that vintage photo. Aside from him being a good looking cat, its just a cool ass photo in general. Same goes for the 2nd pic of the male model. There is stuff going on and he looks interesting and badass. Not staring at the camera is important too
EDIT: And that is the most bold difference in the pictures you selected. The ones the girl liked were NOT looking straight at the camera. The men look more aloof or in their own world and natural/relaxed.

Male models are always lacking in masculinity—they are chosen by gay men, to sell clothes and perfume to gay men. Brando is the epitome of masculinity, of course the girl preferred him.
I guess some male models are good looking and some are not, and we as men can’t tell for shit which is which—all I know is that Brando was amazing with women just like Dicaprio is now.
Jack Nicholson looks unspectacular to me, but again, his success tells you otherwise: if a guy is a playboy, chances are he’s extremely handsome to women, whatever you may think of him.

Humans are mobile creatures, they move.
A picture is a frozen moment that unless done professionally, meaning 100 retries, light, angles and other shit won't show your true self, body language, the look in your eyes when you look at her, your smile, your posture in movement etc.

Many Western Women would have gone for an effeminate male model, and said Brando was too 'arrogant'. At least that's what they'd say

There was a woman who dated both Brando and Elvis. She said Brando was a real man, complex, intelligent, whereas Elvis was like a child by comparison. Brando was arrogant to some women, Ava Gardner famously did call him to complain when he had published he'd bedded her, which wasn't true. She told Brando 'your brain has got soft', to which Brando replied 'Darling that's not the only part of my anatomy that's gone soft lately, isn't that punishment enough'....so arrogant as he was, he was intelligent in defusing it and knew how to talk to women. He was more intelligent than most actors, more complex, and women liked that.
