Scandalous: the young royal is already considered a good catch

   Prince George makes it on the hottest bachelor list despite he's only 11-months-old

Though using the word “hot” when referring to an 11-month-old toddler might not be the most appropriate thing, People Magazine seems to think that you're never too young to be considered for their Hottest Bachelors List.

There is no denying that the youngest member of the British Royal family is quite easy on the eyes and he's also melting hearts all over the world when he appears in photos wearing dungarees and frowning or yawning, but to list him as a desirable bachelor is a little bit out of place.

Several media outlets have raised a virtual eyebrow over the fact that People have chosen to nominate Prince George, who is not even a year old yet, among figures such as Ryan Gosling, Jared Leto and Robert Pattinson.

For a grown man to receive the title of desirable bachelor it's always an honor, but for a baby still unable to walk upright or talk, it becomes a question of morality, since the list is clearly made up of people you would love to hook up with.

Granted, Prince George is famous and when he grows up, in about a quarter of a century, he's no doubt going to be a catch to one certain lady who will gain access to fame and fortune (not to mention access to the Royal Family) by marrying him. But until that day, it's not very nice to look at the young lad as an object of desire.

It's OK for women to ogle at photos of Joe Manganiello, the man who was just elected the hottest bachelor of them all, posing on the cover with his impressive abs and mean gaze, it's even OK to leaf through the pages and fantasize about the rest of the men making up the list, but once you turn to a picture of an 11-month-old baby, the whole thing just turns sour.

Someone really needs to rethink their morality compass and take the baby out of a list that has everything to do with lewd attraction and nothing to do with motherly instincts. To give you an idea, Prince George is a full 19 years and 4 months younger than the youngest member on that list, the 20-year-old Angel Elgort, the actor who stars in Divergent.

People might have gone one step too far with including George on their list, but what's more amazing is that very few people have actually caught on to what is a very immoral thing to do.

The British Royals haven't yet issued a formal position on the matter, but you can bet that this is going to be at least as embarrassing for them as when Duchess Kate had her dress fly up over her waist during an official visit and the entire world got a good look at the royal derriere.
