BUT...since when being a model equals being pretty ?

There's a shortage of good-looking young women? I wasn't aware of that, I see plenty of them everyday.

^Me too. And most of them are single.

[MissAnia]

^ And most of them are not models

It has nothing to do with pretty- Attractive, which can mean a lot of things, or good looking, which is a matter of taste also- But I think you'll agree that models would not make all the money they do if they were average looking or not attractive in a general sense? It's not being judgemental- just a fact of reality- Models tend to be very attractive young women; very attractive young women tend to be sought after by men (or women, as the case may be)- and there are a limited number of them around. So it is not at all surprising that there is, in general, great competition for their social attentions, dating or whatever. It certainly does not indicate that they are in the final analysis more important or better, just superficially more desirable, particularly in dating situations, which was what I was originally commenting on...

Most of guys that I know would never call models pretty girls so you see it's not "A FACT OF REALITY". It's your point of view. And I can see lots of good-looking girls around even though I'm straight .

Not just good looking- We were discussing models...There is only a small percentage of those women who could be successful models...Stop by an agency's open casting sessions sometime- almost every girl, most very good looking, are turned away... One of the agents I saw interviewed said in nine years of open calls, once a week, he had hired three girls...small percentage...

But being a successful model still doesn't always mean to be a pretty woman. There are different demands in fashion world.

I think you're confusing pretty and attractive..I said

I don't see what's not true about that line of thought... Let's not lose sight of the available factor- there can be a million attractive women around- only a certain percentage will be available to go out with- and my original point was being fortunate to have one to date, since there are not that many to go out with and a lot of guys who would like to...

I guess that a woman should also have somtehing in her head, not only good appearance.

I would hope so- it can get one dimensional and boring very quickly otherwise...!

I don't find most HF models today to be very attractive. I by no means like big-breasted cheescake beauty but I think most females on the pages of HF magazines are far too thin and unattractive. I don't think say, Masha, is really anyone's wet dream

[MissAnia]

You make demands on women, so I suppose that you must be a really handsome, brainy and just perfect guy ...
