If the recent slew of Megan Fox magazine covers has taught us anything, it's that being a sexy Hollywood lady is hard. Turns out guys have a hard time dealing with it, too.

Ryan Reynolds tells Entertainment Weekly that he's not into being a sex symbol:

"If you take any of that seriously, you need to be euthanized, ASAP. There are moments when you can use that your advantage. But it's really embarrassing. I think I fear more than anything just sounding like a complete a--hole when I have to answer that question."

It's so embarrassing for the Proposal star that he stripped down to his perfect six-pack, lathered on bronzer and posed for a national magazine.

Ah! Will he ever recover from such a humiliating experience?

Just kidding. He'll run another marathon, go home to his fellow sex symbol, wife Scarlett Johansson, and make it through this difficult time of movie promotion.

So our real question: Ryan Reynolds is obviously pretty and everything, but does he actually count as a "sex symbol"?
