A guy who is very popular among women,
guys, look, in Russian we have an expression which cannot be literally translated " the guy number one in the village". it means a guy who is popular among women. however the phrase has a slightly ironical shade of meaning.

is there anything like this set expression in English? What emotional colouring does it have?
