Is it correct to say "If you are talking about a hunk so it means you are talking about a person being muscular than being handsome"?
 
What does 'than' mean? Rather than? More than?
 
No, it isn't. Try again.
 
Beyond that, a "hunk" is someone who is very handsome.

Use constructions like so it means to continue an argument or discussion you have just introduced: Tufguy posted a question about "hunk", so I suppose he has recently seen or heard the word somewhere. You can't use so this way after a statement that begins with if.
 
I have the impression that tufguy loves the word "so" after I've read so many posts of his.
:)
 
Tufguy, one correct way to construct your statement would be If you are talking about a hunk, it means you are talking about a person being muscular rather than handsome.

Preferably followed by "Am I correct?"

There is something happening to my laptop. I typed "Rather than" I don't know how it got deleted. My laptop is acting weird sorry for that mistake.

But you have used "Being" before rather than shouldn't be you using it before handsome as well.

No.

Your laptop really is behaving weirdly. It is capitalising the wrong words, failing to capitalise the right words, using the wrong word order, forgetting punctuation marks ...! What a naughty laptop!

Sorry but I did type "rather".
