Can Western ideals of female "beauty" become any more phony?

  • Well, no, I don't think she's ugly.

    But, hey, Heidi Klum was just an example. I'm speaking in more general terms here.

    • Heidi Klum

      Her breasts are supposed to be real. Someone mentioned her as proof you can have "ideal" breasts without implants.

      I actually don't like Alyssa Milano much. Something with her face.

        • As for Mercator's "well, what IS attractive?" I'd say

          Angelina Jolie
          Jennifer Garner
          Shannon Elizabeth
          Jessica Alba

          All qualify by my book. Paris Hilton earns negative points for looking like the overused blowup doll she reputedly is. Pamela Anderson has the same thing going on; anybody else know what I'm talking about? I think men who go down on those women must see calluses down there. Ugh.

            Ben: what do you mean by that? How tall is she?

            • Elok: Well, Paris Hilton certainly isn't an amazingly beautiful woman. I don't think that anyone thinks she is. I think I've seen much prettier women, IRL, in the media, and hell, even in the hot or not threads ( kudos to self biased, btw )

              • @Azazel: I can't specify exactly what is lacking, but Milano's face isn't very attractive to me. Just take it as an encouraging indication that the evil corporatists haven't totally standardized tastes yet.

                  • Well, since latest research seems to show that it's nature's way, I AM being concerned. Though it is possible that except simple simmetry, there are other personal preferences. And we seem to diverge greatly on those.

                        You know that was on purpose, right?

                            • I don't just mean that Paris is unattractive, I mean that she looks like a used car with 300,000 on the odometer. She looks weathered. She looks like if you stick something up to her lips she'll reflexively start sucking just like a baby does. She looks like she's got an autoimmune disorder from all the sperm she's absorbed through her various crevices. She looks like her boobs must have permanent oil smears and fingerprints like the glass in a museum display case. Even if I didn't know her reputation I'd probably think it from her appearance.

                                Both outstanding choices


                                As for the rest of you, it's a shame that you limit yourselfs. So many types of women out there and each bring something great.
