Pyongyang waitresses sliced to perfection
Asia Times Online ^ | July 23, 2011 | Sunny Lee

BEIJING - A mixed group of Chinese and foreigners recently dined at a North Korean restaurant in the Chinese capital. Surveying the female waitresses, one Chinese guest remarked: "Wow - how beautiful! They all look like models!"

.... South Korea media often tout North Korean women as "natural beauties", comparing them favorably to women in the South who increasingly turn to plastic surgery. However, lately North Korean women seem to be catching up in the surgery stakes, with the North seeing a boom in various operations.

...."Upper eyelid surgeries and cosmetic tattoos on eyebrows, lips and the corners of eyes are widespread in North Korea," a source from Pyongyang was quoted as saying ....

Well, the way I judge attractive women has changed over the years:

In my 20s I wondered what she’d look like naked.

In my 30s I wondered what she’d be like in bed.

In my 40s I wondered what she’d look like without make-up.

In my 50s I learned that the most important consideration is what she’ll sound like when she’s mad at me.

I have seen many beautiful Asian women here in the northeast US, but I have noticed that the ones from certain Asian countries (other than Japan) have a shrillness to their voices that derives from the natural sound of their native languages.

Of course, that seems only to be true of the immigrants. I don’t find that to be the case of the ones who have lived here their whole lives and have English as their first language.

True. You don't find a lot of cleavage in Asia, except Japan.

btw, I like the description too. :)

"..shrillness to their voices that derives from the natural sound of their native languages." - True. It is called tones.

Today it would be absolutely foolish to marry an American woman.

I guess it depends on the woman. I've lived in the Northeast my whole life, but I'm with an American lady from Tennessee, and I wouldn't trade her for anyone -- least of all someone who didn't grow up here and relate to my core American values.

Perhaps SOME Asian women are submissive. Many aren’t. A former boss had married an Asian lady (Born and raise in Japan) who made life miserable for him. So miserable that he refused to retire until he was forced to in his 80’s. He spent as many hours per day at work as he could, and would have slept there if he thought he could get away with it. He didn’t believe in divorce, so avoidance was his method to retain sanity.

I had long legs, big bazooms, red hair, one blue eye and one green eye, and was covered in freckles.

So, what do you have now? 8^)

You are one of the lucky ones - the majority of American men are not as lucky as you ...

I’ve always noticed Afghanis tend to be very attractive. Some have long noses, especially older men, but when I look at a group picture there are a lot of attractive people there.

Of course, sadly, they hide many of the women under burkha bags.

It must be The Vice Guide to North Korea you are alluding to. That is the best documentary I have ever seen about N.K. and it was done by some amateur Canadians.

Although there are many beautiful Asian women, there are certainly just as many gorgeous western women

I agree. It's a huge buffet out there! My point was that Asian women don't need to undergo surgery that makes them look more Western in order to be beautiful.

Well, the way I judge attractive women has changed over the years:

During the wild days of my mispent youth, a wise man advised me to marry a woman who cooked well. "No matter how old you become," he explained, "you'll always get hungry."

First time I heard that was in a joke ending “Why would you bring a cheeseburger to a banquet?” Of course, the joke was told as my companions and I were watching a half dozen Chinese waitresses go by wearing Cheaongsams so that may be why I remember it to this day.

I don’t see anything about a ‘bootylicous’ or a ‘juicy caboosy’?

I guess the solution is you will just have to post some pictures of yourself in tight dresses and a few in swimwear.

What caused the scar on her right arm? I hope it wasn’t abuse.
