The African-American woman stands for ALL American women now?

An early study claims that we associate attractiveness with symmetry. If half the women have noses that bulge to the left, and the other half have noses that bulge to the right, then on average we will see perfectly symmetrical noses. Likewise for other features.

It may turn out that the "average" person is the most attractive only because the "average" is perfectly symmetric.

Exactly.

A composite of women who were willing to have their picture taken for this “study” perhaps? Those who know they aren’t too good to look at it, didn’t volunteer?

It looks like the Mongolian girl is the only one who really looks distinctive.

[MountainWoman]

Hmmm - I don’t buy this. Look at the close ups of these peeps. Their skin is PERFECT. No blemishes, nothing. Come on now. Pro-activ isn’t as popular as it is for nothing. AIRBRUSH!

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

You missed one.......

At closing time?

Either Swiss women like to stand closer to the camera or their heads are about a third longer than Italian women.

The stereotypical possibilities are endless!

I’m stuck wondering which Asian country I should troll for babes with my new pal Chris Lee? lol.

Since I am short on cash, I had to check the economics and it looks like the Philippines where a hotel maid might make something like $150 a MONTH.

/sarcasm (true stat though)

LOL - you will be contacted privately to work out the details of your reimbursing me for the keyboard I just ruined by spitting coffee all over.

Why do I think he’s follow-up is a coffee table book of “Average Boobs Around The World”?

[dead]

The Italian and the Afghan looks like they had their heads squished in an olive press.

I am crushing their heads.

Stella, Dear!

From my experience, being there, the average UK/British woman is not that thin.

Just sayin’

[Army Air Corps]

I would like to get a grant to travel the world photographing women...

I’ve got my eye on Korea

I have always liked Korea. But the Philippines is more afforable. lol.

Random thoughts:

Ms. Uzbek is rather lovely.

The Russian “average” seems very spot on. Very similar facial features to the Russian women I’ve known.

The Chinese composite, I’m not as sure about. Most of the women I saw in China tended to be darker-skinned and had different features. Part of it may be that the composite is effecting western-style makeup and hair, which didn’t seem to be very common when I was there (early 90’s).
