[Pompey Bum]

Les femmes, parce que les femmes sont toujours les plus belles, y compris les visages.

Is "y compris" right? Or do I need "meme" or "dont" or something? Or just "compris"?

女の人の方がかっこいいと思うが、こんなことは好き好きだね。神々も話し合いがつけないかもし れないかな。

[Pompey Bum]

Un petit peu. J'ai habite en Afriques quelques années passé--bien Louisiana!

Heh heh. Now there's the man, though. :)

what is this saying Lykren?

[Lykren]

"I think women are better looking, but this kind of thing is a matter of taste. Perhaps even the gods could not come to agreement."

[cacian]

"I think women are better looking, but this kind of thing is a matter of taste. Perhaps even the gods could not come to agreement."

is that with or without the makeuo scenario?
i think even the god would agree about that.

[Lykren]

The gods might agree that make-up is always an improvement but I don't.

[Clopin]

Makeup is such cheating.

[Pike Bishop]

Women are prettier, partially because they want to be. A key element of a man's beauty if often dependent on handsomeness, where prettiness suggests a femininity derided as un-masculine and denoting a gunsel or a Ganymede.

[Pompey Bum]

Women are goddesses who exude beauty from every pore. Make up can be beguiling, but like a pretty veil it ultimately gets in the way.

Not... all of them? Maybe I just need to learn to see it better. I agree with your view on makeup though.

[Clopin]

My radical homosexual opinion is that men are usually better looking and women gain two points through applying makeup.

[Mohammad Ahmad]

Why is this question by God?
Presumably is the woman because she has something of beauty body's parts could attract people eyes, the man had not.
O, to my grieved soul, this is difference always in the world , no judging rule it has, going furthermore to fantastic words on lines.
For me and about this question you asked you rather find yourself on a bit of satisfaction or at least to read men's mind, I would rather say " poetry is poetry whether comes from a woman or man" but the decision always keeps pace with a woman!

[Iain Sparrow]

In the natural wilds the male of any given species is usually more colorful, more flamboyant, more attractive. Females are usually plainly marked, smaller, make less noise.
Having worn makeup a time or two, or three for Halloween costume parties; I can say the transformation is shocking, turns out I'm not bad looking.;)

But I still threw my vote for women.
Honestly, men disgust me... give me a pleasantly chubby women who laughs at my jokes and it's all I need. Anyhow, I do my best work in the dark, so looks aren't so important.

[YesNo]

I voted both. A male would find a female's facial features more attractive if he can keep his eyes off the rest of her. A female would probably find a male's facial features more attractive although I wouldn't know. A predator, as Iain Sparrow mentioned, would probably go for the male first because the male would be getting in the way of dinner.

Yes, all women are goddesses who exude beauty from every pore. Granted, things get more complicated beyond the pore level; but (not to sound too mystical) maybe the solution is to see less sharply sometimes. You don't have to sleep with all of them. You don't even have to sleep with any of them. They can still be lovely, can't they?

[YesNo]

I agree with this goddess perspective. Even if the woman isn't beautiful or is old getting around with a walker and an oxygen tank, she is still a goddess.

I am rereading parts of the chapter on Dhumavati in Sally Kempton's "Awakening Shakti" prior to heading toward a wake this afternoon for the husband of an elderly relative.

haha i so agree
makeup that enhances if fine but the one that covers up is too much.
one cannot tell the same face once the makeup is removed.

a woman? a goddess??
why is that?
i dont get the whole idea of a woman being a goddess.

[Pike Bishop]

I adore and worship my wife, but particularly because of all of her lovely internal and external human qualities. Part of those qualities I adore are her imperfections, even the scary glares she can give me when she thinks I've done something wrong...;)

So, she's no goddess, but she's something more beautiful and sublime.

[YesNo]

I am not sure I get it either, but it is an interesting idea to try on. The implication is that men are also gods. I think the point is that we take each other less for granted. This can be difficult. Suppose the woman weighs two-, three- or four-hundred pounds or kilos or more, she is still a goddess.

I don't know, man; have you been to the DMV lately?

If you "worship" your wife, she might as well be a goddess. Not all goddesses are like Venus.

Some of the goddesses at the DMV can be disappointing.

[Pike Bishop]

Nah, I worship her because she's not a goddess. A goddess is an idealized abstraction with no tie to human reality. Everything beautiful about my wife is so exquisitely human.

[Helga]

My friend told me about her friend who said about her boyfriend that when they met he had a big nose but then it got smaller. Beauty changes when you know people, and looks can be deceiving. My mom and some of my friends tend to be annoyed with me cause I don't 'see' people in the same way, I rarely notice if someone is heavy or distinct in some way and I never notice clothes, (but I can see a dog from afar) granted most of these women tend to worry about how heavy they are and I don't really think about that stuff (got enough going on in my head without adding looks into the mix).

I vote both cause I just don't know any better

[tonywalt]

It difficult to determine what women find attractive as personality/agency/charisma has such a large impact in whether they find a man attractive.

I remember as a kid seeing Paul Newman in 'Cool hand luke' and thinking, 'now he's good looking.'

[MB Kruger]

i would say men only because women tend to hide behind makeup

[Kinsddlock]

PS Is a big lie

[cacian]

PS?


That's a strange thread, isn't it?
strange? in what ways?

agreed makeup is not always attractive :)

it is interesting however that men are ahead of women in the poll. ;)

Makeup is such cheating.

An old lady on her deathbed asks the god to give her 10 more years. As she had lived a very kind life the god agrees and does not take her soul. The woman gets very happy, and goes to some plastic surgery clinic and gets a body correction in order to enjoy her life more. Happy with her appearance she walks out of the clinic, but unfortunately a car hits her and she dies. In the heaven she asks the god why he did not keep his word and not let her live 10 more years. The god replies: "I did promise you, but I'm sorry I could not recognize you...."

Usually this joke is much better when being told by others in my language, but as I just translated it and in general I'm not very good joker please don't judge me too much :))
