I think the distinction has to be made between attractiveness and
sexiness.  Attractiveness is in the eye of the beholder.  Sexiness is
a quality radiated by the object.

Black as the crow.  White as snow.  Red as blood.  (Deirdre's
description of Naisi) And highly intelligent.  Yes, I'm afraid I would
find Snape attractive (grooming issues aside) if I were somehow
transported into the story, but hopefully would have better sense than
to act on it.

As written, however, I don't think Snape is sexy in the least.  He's
too cold.  None of the adults in HP* are sexy, IMO.  In fact there is
such an absence of adult sexuality in the books, that until HBP, with
its delicate references to Merope's interesting condition, I wasn't
sure that wizards reproduced in the ordinary mammalian fashion.
