I don't think of Barret as 'sexy' (what with being heterosexual and all), but he is one of my favourite characters. Strong, but a real softie where his daughter is concerned. A loyal friend who'll sacrifice all for those he cares about. Tough-talking, but sensitive and deep. Not afraid to do what it takes to defend what's right.
Even though he's been through a lot of pain, suffering and loss, he still cares about people in a big way. Pretty admirable guy.

But I agree with animee_...
