I have to second what many have already said, because Adam Baldwin is HOT HOT HOT!
Pretty sure his eyes are not blue though. I got to meet him at a convention once, and they were either green or a pale brown. Sorry, but I can't remember which, just know they're not blue. He was very nice though, not at all like his character.
Regarding: Kaylee/Jayne - If you listen to Joss's commentary on the pilot episode, he says that Jayne has a big old crush on Kaylee. Once you know that, the evidence is there: the way he acted when she got shot, his hatred of the doctor, and efforts to derail that romance. I don't think Kaylee has the slightest interest in him though. So I don't see it happening.

Besides the fact that he's played by Adam who I think is one of the best hot character actors out there...
He's the most intriguing blend of idiocy and intelligence I've seen. You know he's got smarts cuz he's been a fairly successful bad guy in the past, even tho unexpected obstacles have popped up. And some of his sayings are just so cute/smart. But then he does something so stupid. 
It's a conundrum.
Maybe he's simply so focused on his goal of one day being rich that he doesn't pay attention to what he's thinking/saying. I wouldn't mind being the one who makes him lose that focus. 
Anger on one side, sadness on the other.
Nobody knows about the third side.

Perhaps because they see the sister under the skin

Select to view spoiler:
He almost gives his turtle to her.
Still, 20 years difference, just not right.

In case it helps, with Jayne the age difference is in years only, but mentally it might as well be nonexistent.
He's not a 40-year-old at heart. Just by his mind alone, he could be 22 and not a day older.
That's why Jayne/Kaylee or Jayne/River or Jayne/anyone doesn't freak me out in the way that Mal/Kaylee or Mal/River would. The age difference is present in those cases, mentally more than anything, and it informs the interaction in those cases quite a bit.
Back on topic.
I can't speak for all women, but I like Jayne because he is one of the most honest characters on the show.
He's selfish and he'll betray Simon and River but he doesn't pretend to be anything else, really. You can predict it because it's not hidden under a false layer of generosity. If he shows affection, you know that it's real.
He also honestly respects women. Sure, he visits whores, but he doesn't look down on them, or on Inara. There's none of that hypocritical crap that Mal lugs around.
When Jayne says "whore" Inara doesn't chastise him for it because Jayne doesn't say it with disrespect. It is truly just a descriptive word for him.
And yeah, that whole bad boy with a good heart thing. He screws up, and he's very humanly - again, honestly - selfish, but deep down he's has a set of standards that he earnestly considers and holds up against the world.
He's a great character, that way.

Speaking as an artist who has had to look at his face for hours upon hours with a magnifying glass - sorry, but his eyes are definitely blue. A dark, steely blue.

The words "muscular buttocks" come to mind.
