Prefrences of body shape are cultural as well.
In the Iliad I notice that the women of Troy were "deep bosomed", which is still the preferred body shape in that area . Then on the Greek side of the we have Queen Arete of the "slim ankles". denoting a slender ideal.
Has a Gentleman's preferment with regards to breasts anything to do with the size of his Mother's bosom? Or is that a "don't even go there" scenario.
Looking at the size and extent of the recent invasion by girls, I would like to quote an earlier post of mine in this thread:Quote:

What are you doing?
I am a little embarrassed that some (will not name names but I am sure they know who they are) are claiming to be men and post in this thread pretending to be men! That is very disappointing.
Why, oh, why would anyone to pretend to be men? Want to be a man?
We have to give it to the guys that even if occassionally they post in the Coffee thread, none of them come in high heels and say things like "Why do my nails keek chipping? Should I have caramel or light blond highlights? Does my bum look big in this?"
I might even propose that those who have made that unfortunate choice get banned from the "girls-only" thread for a week or so!
Ive been away do yoiu know how many posts turn up in a month? I must have missed it....:eek2:
We've retreated to the Inner Sanctum. Surely you pesky females wont click below and follow us in there ;)Quote:

Over a long and misspent life, I have had the good fortune to know women from Oriental and Occidental countries. I have always had a soft spot for the Madame Butterfly delicacy of Japaneses women, as well as oriental women in general, who seem to be more subtle than their western counterparts.
Given that many members of the Bloke's thread are too young to have experienced the Lotus Blossom effect, are there any of the more experienced members who are able to put forward a personal opinion on this issue.
I agree some of them do have a china-doll quality, but it's never attracted me.
I have a couple of mates who will only date Asian women.

Hello!:D What's been happening?:)
The thing with Oriental women is that they are incredibly sexy to begin with, but as soon as they hit forty they have a tendency to transform into Yoda...Quote:

I feel so privileged to be Asian right now! :lol::lol::lol:
Not so. I have had relationships with oriental women of forty who looked nothing like their age. They age far more slowly than western women. Girls of about twenty often look like schoolgirls; which could get a man into trouble in certain situations if she hasn't got ID.Quote:

My first girlfriend was a ballet dancer with beautiful, long hair. I didn't know it when I first met her, however, since she pulled it back into a bun so tight that I thought she was part asian. So I was kind of surprised the first time she wore her hair differently.
Indeed! :lol:Quote:

Just had to put in my 2 cents about Asian girls: Gorgeous (for the most part) Although, as with any race, personality and the way one takes care of themselves has a lot to do with attractiveness factor imo
[QUOTE=The Atheist;713156]Indeed! :lol:

I wouldn't know about that, I don't look at the men.

The other thing is they tend to be quite petite - this can be good, but I have a Chinese friend called Phoebe who is fully two feet shorter than I, which makes having a conversation with her while we are walking quite awkward...
Oh yes, you said somewhere Loki that you were very tall.Quote:

Since we are somewhat on the topic: Red Hair: my friends and I have a theory. It is a multiplier. If the woman is attractive or unattractive, it multiplies that positive or negative quality.
Attractive women with red hair translates into very attractive women. Similarly for the negatives.
I doubt it - attractive people with any hair look attractive. What your theory implies is, that there are only really, really good looking red-haired women, or really really ugly red-haired women, which sounds quite silly.Quote:

I've had a few redheads and you might be onto something!Quote:

You guys should start a poll on what kind of woman you find most attractive Asian v. redhead :lol:
But seriously with men and women alike...someone can be gorgeous and if they're an a**hole, thier attractive factor just goes right out the window.
Or multiplies tenfold.Quote:

Asians or Redheads? Hmmm ... the one that would let me get away with the most... ;)
How about an Asian Redhead, Who lets you get away with stuff
I have just been through this entire thread and as entertaining as it was, I am mystified by the male species more than ever.
Thanks for the insights guys.
I'll be off now *goes and hides behind a rather tall potplant* :lol:
Always preferred my women petit, doe eyed, darkhaired, creamy skinned, fiesty, intellegent, healthy and slim. Other than that I'm not too fussy.
:lol: Have we warped your sense of reality? Men are not the knights in shining armor that women dream of. :DQuote:

Now there is nothing more fascinating to we Brits than our weather, But again its a subject that refers to local conditions, so if I say, "Its a bit parky today" or "Its cats and dogs out there," half our members would have to disagree, if they even understood the statement.
So thank goodness for women, an endlessly fascinating subject for all real men everywhere. Its just a pity we're as shallow as a puddle on the highway, when we analyse our preferences.
ps. Ricky Hatton, ah well
can I just say thanks to this thread the litnet is now trying to match me up with Aisian women?
:rolleyes:
