I don't like big, unshapely, ridiculous-looking breast implants.
I don't like extreme amounts of make up, applied in all the wrong places, to make the woman look as slutty and fake as possible, at least to my eyes.
I don't like artificial solarium tans that make the girls look like they have some incurable skin disease.
I don't like bleached hair, arranged in stupid looking fashions.
I don't like overly worked out bodies that are muscular and have coarse features that make them appear not at all feminine.
I also don't like the way some are obviosly starving themselves bordering on the pathological, making their elbows, shoulders, knees and hips stick out from the rest of the body. I'm not talking anorexics, just the general trend here.
I don't like cosmetic surgery and lip implants.
I don't like tattoos.
I don't like piercings in other places than the ear lobes.



I like more natural looking women. Not fakes. That's not to say that all cosmetic enhancements in the wider sense of the term are bad, not at all, it's just that some of the complaints listed above are becoming much too extreme and prevalent in our mainstream culture. At least for my liking.



I never understood why the posters of the babe-threads always showed ugly, starving, over-made-up sluts.

This is the kind of eye-candy I like: Miss Bosnia

Et tu, Spiffor? Show me just one example of what you accuse us of.

Btw, Miss Bosnia isn't that good looking, It's just a VERY successful pic of her.

Well, let's see with the pics of this current thread:

Alyssa Milano: found her attractive. Nothing looked like charicature in that pic of hers you posted IMHO.
Salma Hayek: Atrocious make-up. She looks like she was punched in the eyes, and is still enraged about it
Jeri Ryan: would be definitely pretty if it wasn't for her huge lips and huge eyes.
Heidi: Nice body (especially her legs) and cute face, but the tan and the outrageous boobs are party-poopers.

Edit: oh, yes, the proof of what I accuse you of
I'm thinking of some babe-thread, or "miss something" threads of the past. I recall precisely that many people here (almost only anglos) considered Miss Australia to be #1

Depends. With Alyssa Milano, definitely. With Heidi, probably not, because her oversized breasts are really a turn-off to me (well, her legs could compensate though).

With Miss Bosnia, with absolute certainty

Her body is ok (or at least, we don't get to see any dysfunctionality in the pic). But the face screams "I'm a vulgar slut that paints herself with bad make-up". It really turns me off.
Would she put a bag on her head, she would probably be hittable

I found Alyssa most attractive when she was a teenager. No, I'm not a paedophile. I'm the same age she is. So it's okay.
