: Who does it benefit anyhow? It should be politically incorrect to even comment about what should be an individual thing---------taste. What is the sense in conditioning people from infancy to find A gorgeous B ordinary and C ugly? There is money to be made from these standards, but at what price our souls?

: They test infants and "show" a "clear" preference for social standards of looks. I say that the infants are responding to their sense that the socially "attractive" show more confidence than the abused socially "unattractive" who tend to internalize rejection.

: Think for yourselves people.

***The janet reno post brought this up. Well first an analogy. Lets say
1% of the population responds favorably to a hard electrical shock and 99% experiences it as unpleasurable. Theoretically speaking.
A man selecting janet reno as a beautiful woman over 99% of all other women
would be akin to the 1% favoring the shock.
I am guessing KB is in his mid-fifties. I at age 30 naturally pick women in a different age category. However I am quite confident that men of any age category would choose 99% of women as better looking than janet reno.

I am struggling to figure out why KB has said this. It has to be subjective character traits he is focusing on. Maybe his 2 arrow feels sorry for a women nature was so cruel to. Maybe her fear type vunerability is attractive. Maybe his four type thinks WOW! a rich powerful woman...she would take care of me if I forced myself to touch her now and then with the lights off. Sorry man but you left yourself wide open with your preference. Surely you have to admit Pamela Anderson, Brooke Shields, Denise Richards are more physically beautiful. I am not talking about CHARACTER or PERSONALITY, but PHYSICAL LOOKS. Come on KB dont settle for less, unlease the stud within and chose the HOT BABES!
