Is It Hotter in Here Or Is it Just You?

Best news of the century of the week of the millennium of ever. Turns out, it’s not your imagination — women are getting prettier.
Is it evolution? Has God found some new way to love us? Ask me if I care!
I thought that beer was living proof that God loved us and wanted us to be happy. Actually, beer is what makes many women appear prettier, so perhaps the authors of this study should have had their blood alcohol content checked before clicking “Send”.
The blogger called “zombie” has posited that the entire human race, male and female, is becoming more attractive as we move from the custom of forced marriages created on the basis of financial, social, and political suitability, towards marriages based on mutual attraction. The uglies are being slowly bred out of existence.
The bad news (supplied by me) is that women in their exasperating emotional intelligence and general superiority have a greater ability to “see past” a man’s looks and mate with sincere, warm-hearted, good-humored, intelligent, and accomplished males who are physically less than optimal. This will retard the progress of the race to that day when Angelina (and Brad) will be the average.
All of the women coming over from Eastern Europe don’t hurt things. I heard a plausible theory to account for their overall hotness: at the end of WWII, something very high percentage of Soviet men had been killed in the war and the only way a woman stood an ice cube’s chance in hell of getting married was to be in the top 10%, looks-wise. They bred most of the ugly out of their population in one generation.
Beyond that, though, I seriously doubt the human race becoming prettier overall. I live in a neighborhood that sees over 30 million tourists per year and figure that I get to observe a pretty decent cross-section of the human race (mostly Americans, but we get people from everywhere). What I don’t see are the trend lines going up.
I wonder, did they take plastic surgery into account?
Even 10=20 years ago I don’t remember many 60+ year old women I thought were hot (Raquel Welch pretty much rounded out the list), now?
I can think of close to 10 who are nearing 70 who I could be interested in and it has little or nothing to do with genetics, it’s primarily based on silicon, surgery and botox.
Veeshir, that’s just you, getting older.
Oh, and I hate to commit heresy here, but that’s about the worst pic of her ever.
It looks like someone p-shopped her boobs and face onto Ahnuld’s body.
Well there is usually a guy involved in the process of procration, so how is it that only women are getting prettier?
I posit that this is all because leonardo di caprio has ninja sperm that impregnates women just as they think about him, thus making men and women prettier, though shorter.
also, are they getting prettier? or are they getting nakeder.
Had a joke when I was working on an assembly line. One of my buddies would always ask me “what would you say she is on a scale of 1 to 10.”
“6″ (he was of course a part of the joke after the first few times I did it, but I just guess he thought it was funny)
“Only a six?”
“to get past seven I need nippls.”
Heh, I always say, “They’re prettier when you can see their boobs.”
I never quantified it though.
Just remember that show dogs are bred for looks.
