Mexican women are easy as

[MCD]

Some of my familia married white women because that was the majority race in their jobs/social functions where they met people. They make decent money like 60,000+ so that's the company they had. Now I got a couple miclo primos haha. I don't wanna put down mexicanas but there are very few of them in middle to high income jobs.

[Cold Bear]

My homie out here from Highland Park used to get called Milkweed and Miclo but he's the lightest in his family

Sometimes it's like that just like with Black families everybody will be one way and then it's the real pale one or the real dark one like BAHNG

shit homie I live in a mostly white city right now and ima just say white girls are really not into chicanos lol. I pull chicanas no problem but if you wanna score a white girl around here you need to take your ass to A&F and drop $400 on extra small shirts and ripped up skin tight jeans and that's really not my style. I'm a white T, jeans n Ball cap wearing kind of vato and all i do is scare the gavachas around here. Really nothing to me though because chicanas are prettier anyways, and not nearly as #%@&#%@ annoying.

Sacremento...huh? Yea see thats why its called getting another perspective. I am definetly not preppy or abercrombie but -I have still been jumped on by white chicks who were -maybe its the looks cuz ,I see where your coming from. Growing up in the 1990s white chicks were obsessed with taggers and cholos and any trendy chicano. If I could say anything it would be that in my perspective -white chicks dated chicanos more so then they dated whites. I even been to simi valley and had them be like "HELLO!".....its not so much that I think they like chicanos as they like something darker but not too dark. Ive had friends and shit comment on it. But if you put it in perspective , the white chicks who did like chicanos always liked the guys who ever girl of every race liked. And I am speaking on the generalist of terms because this is only my view-but also when you look up the statistics it matches up to what I am saying so I would have to say that what I have viewed is correct.......there are some 500,000 white chiks with latino men in California. If you put that against other interracial matchup it blows all of them away, there arent that many black/white or asian/white unions in the entire USA.
Yet just in CAlifornia -we have more interracial matches then any other race in the USA. Thats says something there. The amount of chicano women who have married whites is at 560,000 so the matchup is fairly even-meaning its not one sided and its not discussed as much for that reason....if you understand what I am saying....there has been studies on why asian women marry white men and black men prefer white women ....but none on why chicanos and white intermarry ,because the studies have suggested that whites and latinos dont differentiate in dating eachother. The amount of black men /white woman matches is totally one sided -its like 85% of all interracial white/black marriages are with a black man and white owmen YET hardly any black women marry a white man. Bt with chicanos our interracial marriages are split even .....maybe why its not discussed....

color line meltdown
The rise in mixed-race marriages
coincides with exploding immigrant
populations of Latinos and
Asians – note that we treat Latino
as a racial category. Nearly three
out of 10 marriages involving Latinos
or Asians is a mixed-racemarriage. Indeed, nearly half (1.8
million) of the 3.7 million interracial
marriages in the country
include a Latino.Interracial marriages involving
African-Americans are much
rarer, despite the fact that blacks comprise a
similar share of the U.S. population as
Latinos, and are about three times more
numerous than Asians. Only about one in
eight marriages involving African-Americans
are of mixed-race. At the other end of the
spectrum, nearly three of four marriages
involving Native Americans, Eskimos and
Alutes are interracial.
mix and match states
Not surprisingly, the “melting pot” states tend
to have the highest prevalence of mixed-race
marriages.

I grew up in Sac most my life but for the last year n a half I been staying in Folsom which is still in the county but on the eastern edge n thats what I was actually referring to. It's like 75-80% white and I don't know of a single chicano in this city besides me outside of the prison. basically there's no one more than 1/4 mexican in the town except the paisas. I get alot of white people saying "well i'm one quarter" or "i'm one eighth mexican" n I just look at them like really, how does that even happen when both your parents are white as mayo. The only kind of mexicans the white girls know around here are the ones that mow their lawns. maybe it's because you are in LA. Even tho white girls are exposed to chicanos more down there it would still trip me out to see a gavacha flirtin with a chicano cuz it's almost unheard of up here.

I think white people marry chicanos alot because we're more of a middle ground in skin color and we can always play the latin lover act haha

Middle Weight

I get that kid I wouldnt even get with a paisa-they are just DI-FFERENT in so many ways. I occassionally find one I could dig but not usually-whites or whatever dont date paisas that much out here unless they are fat or have a shitload of kids with some gangster chicano whose locked up and they finally got tired of it all!I been other spots like Portland and Vancouver and they aint ever heard of a chicano! So I know what your saying about the only mexicans represnting being paisas. I shot out there and people looked at me like an alien -I would pull off the shirt and flex the tatts and they would be like """what the hell is that!"""" NO LIE! People from LA think everywhere is like LA but truth is NO WHERE IS LIKE LOS ANGELOS! Not the hoods of Chitown and the ghettos of Harlem. Not Texas-not Arizona none! -Chicanos in those spots dont have big history like in ELA-and I know being chicano and being from ELA automatically your brought up to feel like your a king from the gate. I mean some of the most gorgeous women youll ever see are chicanos on a saturday night in ELA-thats unbiased and true. So consider a vato from LA taking a trip somewhere else? I mean I felt like a celebrity -white chicks on teh jock -banging mixed black chicks at beach -bitches like beyonce...I mean these fools have only seen a chicano on youtube or on some gang documentary-we have our own style of dress our own getdown our own speak and our own ways ---yet we arent black , so women dont feel that black/white tension ya know? I couldve had most of the white chicks I ran into -Their were whiteboys wearing dickies and dressing like old school cholos and tahts what they call style in those spots*** but when a real fool shows up and has the dickies preswsed and the shirt the right size instead of 2 big or 2 small their like dam send him this way.I was out in those spots and white boyz were like whats up dude? can I get tattooed ...hahaha....I dont knwo bud I dont think anyone of any race couldve done it like that ! its a great thing being original and being an ELA fool -we set the trends and everyone else has followed....the tatts and gangster style and way of life started here for whites and black and all races but the thing is WE STARTED IT ....so it never looks the same on them ever!! It might be why some of the varrios out here are like HOW DARE YOU TRY TO EVEN GET BUCK WHEN YOU JUST SECOND TO OUR ORIGINALITY and you look like a fool when you try our stilo.....

white women and mexican women and black women all want a guy who looks good -dark featured men are most womens preference-when I say dark featured I mean dark haired and dark eyed and tan not black!

From my experience, all the women want me. And 9 months of the year I'm not even tanned, because the summer is so short here. And my eyes aren't dark either.

Yea, you cant really pin down which colotrr of skin women like. Im pretty white too and never had any problems.
Its mostly about how you carry yourself, your appearance, your confidence etc.

Yes it is definetly! But there are 2 many women Ive known that wont date certain races, in general meaning not the average guy of that race could get them! I have always been able to go where no man has gone before-but white women seem extremely willing to date outside there race more so then any other race of women.....my unbiased opinion. White women seem teh most eager to pursue chicano/filipino/italian/latino/......which Ive found that white women pursue the most....I am saying droves! I was jsut checking facebook and most the white chicks I knew from anywhere were eitehr married to or getting sepearted from a chicano. Quite a few filipinos I knew growing up also married white guys...so essentially what the statistics on mixing say is exactly what I see, I cant be that off! What I have noticed in the lats 5 years is black men interdating alot more because when I was growing up that was still really taboo and we are talking about the 1990s man! Black guys were the least likely to interracial date from teh statistics and from my own view...its that racialist BS that some parents feel they must install in their daughters that black men should never be an option...its really frequent because Ive had white womens parents make the statement that at least their daughters werent marrying black! And it gets to me that some women let their old fashioned dribble make them date a certain way. I mean I had a conversations where I am like suppose to agree with that ?? I have a good girl friend from way back who is now dating a black dude -and her kids are mixe3d with white and mexican and full mexican , and I see that and hope that one day thats how all families will look ! cuz in teh end its about what YOU like forget everyone else. I think the only way to alleviate these problems is for the mixing to date real extreme

Here’s how much less interested they were in the other races, as compared with their enthusiasm for men of their own race:

African-American women said yes about 30 percent less often to Hispanic men; about 45 percent less often to white men; about 65 percent less often to Asian men.

White women said yes about 30 percent less often to black 15 percent less to Hispanic men, and about 65 percent less often to Asian men.

Hispanic women said yes about 20 percent less often to black or white men, and 50 percent less often to Asian men.

Asian women didn’t discriminate much by race (except for showing a very slight preference for Asian men over black or Hispanic men). After noting who said yes to whom, the researchers analyzed a confounding factor: the men’s physical attractiveness. They found that the women of different races generally agreed with one another in rating the various men’s attractiveness — and that they were less willing to date a man of another race even when he was just as attractive as a man of their own race. When the researchers controlled for the men’s attractiveness, they found that white, Hispanic and Asian women generally showed about the same level of same-race preference, while black women showed a significantly higher preference.

These results from the speed dating experiment roughly jibe with the study I cited in the earlier post about height-income tradeoffs. In that analysis of more than 20,000 online daters, split roughly evenly between Boston and San Diego, men didn’t show much preference for same-race partners. Women did, and African-American women showed the most pronounced preference.

SO according to this and most studies on sexual preferences HISPANIC MEN are the least likely to be shunned away due to race. In fact when defined across the board only asian women didnt list us as their most desirable partner. White women were just as willing to marry/date or be attracted to a hispanic man as they were to a white male-but hispanic women were more attracted to black men then white men. I take that as for the amount of hispanics on the east coast with who are part black?

[mayugastank]

One more thing-to claim racism or self hate or whatever factors into the dating trend might be a little off-but not entirely. I knew a gorgeous black woman who grew up around whites who said she couldnt find a date, before moving to LA because white men didnt like her* and this was a woman on par with beyonce! Needless to say I gave her all the love I could to make up for her years of neglect by the evil white man ........but seriously, bone structure and body type and skin color are FAR more persuasive in defining a man as attractive to the opposite sex then -race will ever be. Hispanic men are fortunate in that we come in all colors and sizes and facial structures, so when a white woman wont date a hispanic she isnt attracted to she is likely to find one eventually that she does find appealing. Science has said that men prefer women who are extra femine looking and women prefer men who hold characteristics of a woman.....it makes the woman feel as though he would be kinder and gentler the more feminent he looks-HENCE the term PRETTY BOY! ever wonder why these girly men always seem to get the girl? .....

What I said was ment as a joke - even though women love me I just got a bit bored of this conversation and decided to fool around a little....

But to be serious, I think that the reason why for example (some) caucasian women and men want darker men and women is because it's exotic. And because of the same reason (some) african and south american men and women want caucasian women and men. Because it's exotic. Something that is different from most of the people around them. You know, put a blonde Nordic type woman walking down the streets of some Latin American or African town and she's surrounded by men in just two seconds. And that's because in those places she looks exotic. Like Latin Americans look exotic when they are put to Northern Europe, for example.

Now, I'm not familiar with any kind of statistics of these matters, but I think that looking "exotic" is one of the biggest reasons behind these things......

[whiskeyjack]

in mexico, the women here think white men are exotic

in mexico, the women here think white men are exotic

NO THEY DONT.Yea there is the occassional latina that likes a white guy -but there are more then enough latino men that enjoy EXTREME attention from latinas. The latinas who were super sexy and attractive growing up around here in LA ,liked hispanic guys. The white women who were super sexy also liked latino guys-and so did some of the blacks and asians. Yet in reverese latina women only very occassionally date outside their race -but there are enough immigrant and nerdy ones to give every white cop and white military guy a latina wife. White guys arent very popular around here with your average race conscious woman. He would have to be a David BEckham type -tattooed and dressing like a latino -with some dark features to ever pull latinas-flips and black women in ANY numbers. But there are enough latino men of that variety here to get with and get stalked by all races. No other race is able to so melt into every cultural like we can , people dont even care so much when a latino is dating black,white,asian.........yet when white guys date asians or blacks its usually commented on -----and when black date white people still are like GROSS! But us chicanos like I said are blessed by God in that we can do anything the hell we want and everybody kinda is like ...oh sexy! I mean since you aint from out here you wouldnt know ---but take a trip to bell gardens on a saturday night or whittier blvd on Friday or East LA community college and youll nuts will hurt from blueballs cuz ---nto a single race of women represent sexuality like a latina.......that banging body and femine ass way -the stylish way about them and that super creamy ass skin -or if you looking for a lighter skin one we got them 2 kid! Praise God I was born chicano .......its not talk either .....I have been to functions where blacks -asians and armenians and every race is present ---and BY GOD --for every good looking chick ---there were 50 ones that werent about anything.........but here in ELA -you can walk outside and get hit with ass and women whose face and eyes look like a drawing ----I have seen my share of white owmen who were sexy ---and they give latinas a run for there money, but not another race of women out here can fux with chicanas......I hear italian and spanish women and some danish women might give latinas a good run-

Of course not. Cause the above is just a crazy racist rant. Kids talk. Crazy talk.
Like, Mexicans are soooo cool and they have the best women, the nicest clothes, the best cars and the best looking hair cuts and the best taste in music.
There is no such thing like a good looking race. What is good looking how do you define that?
Every individual has a different taste. Many women choose their guys by financial criteria and race doesnt matter in that.
Its sooo obvious where this kid is coming from that usually i wouldnt even bother respoinding to it.
White guys are not popular this, black guys are not popular that, but CHICANOS, WE ARE VERY POPULAR!!! I mean come on....what kind of shit is that?
Many of my friends have partners of all different ethnic backgrounds in all kinds of variations. None of that racial dating shit is true.

[MCD]

None of that racial dating shit is true.

I think it is, races are more likely to date within their own because their image of the perfect man or woman is typically an attractive person in their own race. There's still women that can see beauty in any race and those are the ones that mix I guess. I think what mayuga is sayin is the popularity of latinos as an exotic alternative to being with another whiteboy, that's why it gets played on alot in pop culture. It doesn't mean all latinos can pull any type of girl, it depends if you are good looking and if your style is familiar to them. That's like what I said, I've pulled some fine chicanas n I get compliments from female friends n things like that, ya no big deal but my style doesn't fit well with gavachas where I live so even if i'm told i'm a good looking guy they won't be interested.

Ok point for you, i agree. It does play a role in the way you are raised and what you know and your taste in women/men is influenced by that of course.
But that immature shit "everbody wants chicanos" is just not true.
I know (white) women who think Latinos look gay and unmanly and who want a 6.3 big bald headed white guy with a beard. Or a black Mike Tyson type guy. etc. Not saying i agree with that statement, not at all, im just trying to say that the way mayuga boosts latinos/chicanos is just a little onesided and well.. .immature. Peace to all the cool latinos, but i think you know what i mean.
Like in my experience, i am the type i describe above. 6.3 and 220 lbs. and i had women of all races hit on me. So whats the point. If you know how to do it, everybody can get some ass. One of my best pals is vietnamese and man he has got a whole lot of female company if you know what i mean.

NEVER SAID THAT! We can get any race alot easier is no lie ! Look at the statistsics ....75% of all interracial relationships involve a latino.....1/2 of all interracial relationships involve a latino ....Their are more interracial latino relationships in CA then all other states combined. And almost of them in CA involve a latino! Thing is its split evenly for us it isnt all dysfunctional like it is for blacks with all types of black men JOCKIng a white chick and trying to hook em ...but then no white men ever doing the same in reverese! Thats self hate ....latinos men and women intermarry in the exact same numbers...meaning that when we do hook up interracially it isnt all dysfunctional and it isnt all about race ...it just happens that 2 people who are different nationalities fell in love.....but nah with you asians and blacks its all about the hooking up with another race ....its another reason we are proud about what we are we can be ourselves and still be proud and still be loved not like you guys

ACTUALLY " according to studies done everywere in the world beauty in all races ins in bone structure.....men who are not overly manly ...with aligned features are the mo0st attractive males of every race from here to the dirt pits of Africa ....its not different anywhere ! its genetics homeboy ....women naturally are attracted to men with soft faces ...or bone structures because their subconscious tells them that he would be a caring person because in this man they see a woman

That comment is nothing to roll your eyes to. I know you're trying to counter Mayuga with these sarcastic threads about Chicanos/Mexicans, and yes, often times he's seeing things with a Chicano bias if not totally off base. but he's mostly right with that comment not that anyone cares but good genetics equal good looks the symmetry is was makes balance in the face look attractive, it's that simple.

YES I AM BIASED -its hard to argue anothers perspective when your biased towards your own. But J ----I tend to believe I been able to get a good understanding of life in the USA and alot of what I say is only said after tons of research. I am not on here saying all chicano people are gorgeous..or that we are the best looking ....but I can definetly without bias state that those symetrical features ----all very common amongst chicano people-and in other latino groups( nicaraguans,columbians,puerto ricans, ) and there are fairly common amongst a few asian groups as well ( filipinos,cambodians, ) and EXTREMELY common amongst europeans.( italians,greeks,irish,french,swedes,portugese,spanish) ......but its looney to state that beauty is in the eye of the beholder because BEAUTY is universal. Its been proven by scientific research. Just consider why everyone thinks Alicia Keyes is gorgeous --but no one mentions Queen Latifah, or every women mentions Enrique Inglesias junior or Oscar De La Hoya -but no one mentions George Lopez. What I am saying about chicano people is that those feautures of beauty are common amongst both our women and men --which is strange considering that other races dont fair as equal in those looks. I have no understanding why it is but it is. Beauty if definetly not in the eye of the beholder. Its a universal assumption -in every culture beauty is almost defined identically ------

[~J~]

I've seen and believe that generally that women of Mestizo and Japanese make-up tend to feature a more balanced face, this may be due to sharing of some ancestry lineage... not to say that a more balanced face can't found among others which it certainly is.

'Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder' is PC, the truth is this corny saying bares no weight on what 'Real' beauty is, either you got it or you don't.

Ok, let me elaborate.
Well then please produce a source that states that symmetric bone structure is more common among latinos then elsewhere.
The reality is, that you can find that anywhere to the same amount.
I never said that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, but i said that the perception of beauty differs from region to region and from era to era.
Look at what they considered beautiful 500 years ago. Those people would be considered dead ugly today.
In China and many other asian countries brown skin is considered ugly. The whiter the better. Chinese people do not go out into the sun in fear that they "might become ugly". Try your universal Latino beauty there and see how it turns out. In Europe i would say most people consider a tan as handsome, thats why people go into the solarium or try to get as much sun as possible.
In Africa voluptuous bodies are considered as the ultimate beauty (not everywhere but often). You cant generalize that.
And what you said

women naturally are attracted to men with soft faces

is simply not true. You mentioned symmetrical bone features which are considered commonly as beautiful. I agree with that. Soft faces have nothing to do with that. There are women who dont like soft faces at all. There are women who feel comfortable around grim looking faces or decent, or friendly or tough etc.
THIS totally depends on the individual.

Another question i have, would all what you mentioned also count for Greeks, Italians, Turks, Bulgarians and so on?
Because i have a surprise for you, by their looks many of them would pass for Latino.
And what about native Mexicans, Aztecs etc. They dont look like you described it. Are they ugly? Just wondering.

by Dan Eden for Viewzone
Do you remember being in high school or college and noticing a group of females who had their own special group? More than likely they were the "popular" girls and the most pretty and conceited. When these kinds of people are depicted in movies they often get their egos crushed by plain classmates with better personalities. But, unfortunately, in real life this is unlikely. Being "beautiful" has its rewards and these usually continue throughout adulthood.



Studies show attractive people prefer to associate with others like themselves.

The secret of beauty and attractiveness has been a quest of humans for as long as we have been civilized. Many women (and some "metrosexual" men) spend up to one-third of their income on looking good. Why?

Besides being popular, beautiful people get special attention from teachers, the legal system and employers. Good-looking people tend to make more money than their plain-Jane counterparts, according to a study by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. Researchers found that beautiful people tend to earn 5 percent more an hour than their less comely colleagues. If that weren't enough, the Fed also discovered a "plainness penalty," punishing below-average-looks with earnings of 9 percent less an hour.

While we instinctively know what appeals to our own sense of beauty -- we know it when we see it -- defining what determines attractiveness is not always easy. In frustration, we often give up and claim that "beauty is in they eye of the beholder." But is beauty really a personal phenomenon?

Recent studies have shown that the secret of beauty may at last be understood. It seems that attractiveness may be hard wired in our brains.

Experiments designed to measure attractiveness usually involve showing a series of images of human faces and asking subjects to rate their visual appeal. Surprisingly, people from a variety of different ages, races and cultures agree on what is and isn't beautiful. Babies as young as 3 months can identify and prefer faces that most adults would deem beautiful. Europeans can pick out the same beautiful Japanese faces as Japanese subjects; Japanese can agree on which European faces another Europeans will view as beautiful. In fact, humans can even agree on the attractiveness of monkey faces, thus ruling out most unique racial, cultural and even species influences. So what's going on?

Facial recognition is a complex process. Only recently, with the need to spot criminals and terrorists, computer facial recognition programs have been developed to analyze the subtle variations of such things as the space between our eyes, the size of our noses and the proportions of our facial features. Scientists have discovered certain mathematical facial proportions that identify beautiful people. But is there more to beauty than the mere arrangement of eyes, noses and chins?

Our brains seem to do much more than simply recognize a beautiful face. Most people can assess emotions, personality traits and fertility -- as well as beauty -- almost instantaneously. In fact, the human brain has special part called the fusiform, located in the back of the head near the spine. It's the same neural pathway needed to recognize faces of family, friends and people we have met. When it's damaged, the patients cannot recognize anyone, even people they has just met. Also, in experiments, they cannot discriminate between photographs of plain and beautiful faces.

Studies show that when we recognize a face as "beautiful" we are actually making a judgement about the health and vitality of that individual. We interpret facial symmetry (the similarity of left and right halves of a face) and the smoothness of the skin to mean that a person has good genes and has been free from diseases. This is part of what we mean by "beautiful" but it is just the beginning.

Studies have shown that facial symmetry is one of the best observational indicators of good genes and healthy development and that these traits are what we mean when we say someone is attractive. Look at these examples below.



Which face do you think is more healthy?


A non-symmetrical face, or Facial Asymmetry (FA), increases with the presence of genetic disturbances such as deleterious recessives and with homozygosity. Also, FA increases with the exposure to environmental perturbations during development (i.e. extremes in temperature and pollution). Think of Facial Asymmetry as the inability of an individual to resist the disruptions in developmental symmetry. This implies a genetic weakness and less than optimum health.
Bilateral Symmetry (see image above) is thus equated with heterozygosity and resistance to infection and debilitating pathogens. Bilateral Symmetry and parasite resistance are factors that show optimum health and increase the success in intersexual and intrasexual competition.

Note: The term homozygosity refers to the similarity of genetic characteristics that can cause a weakening of a species -- such as occurrs with in-breeding. Heterozygosity, on the other hand, is the result of genetic variety which is able to change and adapt to environmental conditions. The latter is believed to be more beneficial to a species.


A plethora of recent experiments have shown that, aside from symmetry and being "healthy," men and women form opinions about attractiveness based on slightly different criteria which can change depending on such things as their age, hormones and potential for being a mate.

Attractiveness from a female's perspective

In one experiment, the researcher selected photographs of a man with what has been described as "feminine" features. These included a small nose, narrow chin and large eyes. This image was digitally morphed with an image of a very "masculine" face, with a strong jaw, big nose and small eyes. The two images were morphed in progressive steps in such a way that the viewer could adjust the degree of either masculine or feminine features with a slider, corresponding to which image the female subjects thought was most attractive. Subjects were also asked about their menstrual cycles to determine their potential fertility and estrogen levels.



While most women preferred the middle range -- a combination of both feminine and masculine features -- subjects who were in their most fertile hormonal cycles preferred the more masculine image. The same women, when later tested during their infertile days, selected the more average looking male image as most attractive.

Scientists reason that fertility causes hormonal changes in the brain that seek out strong testosterone traits in their potential mates. These traits are usually associated with aggressive behavior, risk taking and verility -- traits that are advantageous in the act of procreation.

Some other interesting studies may be explained using this biological model. University of Aberdeen psychologist Ben Jones and his team tested the impact that the opinions of others has on our perception of beauty by giving women a test in which they had to choose the more attractive of pairs of male faces and to rate how much more handsome they found them. [The Proceedings of The Royal Society]

They were then shown a short video in which the same faces were displayed. But each face was being looked at by a woman smiling or one showing a bored or neutral expression.

After watching the video, the researchers repeated the initial test.

"We found that the slideshow caused women to become more attracted to the men who were being smiled at by other women," said Jones. This shows that people are using the attitudes of others to shape their own judgement about the attractiveness of some people.

In other words, a woman may not be sure how attractive a face is. But if other women show that they're attracted they dismiss their doubt. This may explain the "groupie" and the "cult of personality" phenomenon and why so many ugly men learn to play the guitar.

The test had the opposite effect on men. When they were asked to look at the same male faces, those who got the approving female glances were rated less attractive. Could this be jealosy?

When women are assessing a man's face for a marriage partner they usually react to a man with a wide smile, small eyes, a big nose and a large jaw. This is thought to indicate a strong testosterone level, a potentially good provider and protector for family life.

Studies show that younger women rely more on the physical attractiveness of a man than do older women. The latter incorporate such things as wealth, stability, power and faithfulness in their definition of attractive. This demonstrates wisdom since the most recent studies prove that less attractive men are more faithful and loving than handsome men.

Attractiveness from a male's perspective

As might be expected, females tend to place less of their criteria for beauty on physical attractiveness than do males. This might be a lucky break for unattractive men! A recent study published in Psychological Science found that when seeking a date, men do not factor in their own attractiveness (or lack of) when assessing their chances of success with a beautiful woman. Sometimes they are lucky, but the study did find that, most of the time, people with similar levels of physical attractiveness usually end up dating each other and they aspire to date people who are slightly more attractive than themselves.

When reality sets in, less attractive people justify their less than beautiful partners by emphasizing their personality traits, like a sense of humor or kindness.

The ideal face of an attractive woman, according to experiments with men, has high cheek bones, big eyes and a thin jaw. From infancy to adulthood, our faces are growing at different rates and proportions, depending on such things as hormones. When viewing the proportions of elements such as nose size and facial proportions, males usually select features that are characteristic of a woman of 24.8 years -- perhaps also related to the perceived age of optimal fertility.

Some men prefer even younger proportions because these child-like faces stimulate emotions of caring and protection. These emotions seem to be more significant than sexual urges and procreation in some men. This can be in the psychological realm that dangerously approaches pathology and the law. Yet this "lolita" proclivity seems similarly hard wired.

Professor Victor Johnstone, of the University of New Mexico studied this phenomenon and reported that, "We found that that there definitely was a type of adult female face that men found attractive and that it was different from the average face," says Johnston. "The two key measurements are the distance from the eyes to the chin, which is shorter - in fact it is the length normally found in a girl aged eleven and a half; and the size of the lips, which are fatter -- the size normally found on a fourteen-year-old girl".

When it comes to body proportions, most men usually like big breasts and hips -- again possibly linked to the ability to bare and nurture offspring. Estrogen, the hormone associated with female fertility, encourages fat deposits around the buttocks and thighs. So full buttocks and a narrow waist send out the same message as the ideal face: "I'm full of estrogen and very fertile." Studies by Dr Devendra Singh from the University of Texas show the optimal preferred waist to hip ratio was 0.67 to 0.80, while a larger waist was viewed by males as meaning the woman was more faithful and kind and a woman with a smaller waist was judged as being more aggressive and ambitious.

Dr Michael Cunningham of Elmhurst College, Illinois found that if a male is judging a female in an interview for a job, a woman with expressive eyebrows and dialated pupils has the edge and is likely to be considered more competent. The same features would not be judged as attractive if the same man was looking for a mate. Cunningham also found that attractive women with mature features, such as small eyes and a large nose, received more respect from men.

"Average" is beautiful -- not!

In the late 1870s, scientist and eugenicist Sir Francis Galton developed an image of the prototypical "face of crime" by creating composite photos of men convicted of serious offenses. Though Galton failed to discover anything abnormal in his composite criminal faces, he did find that the resulting visages were shockingly handsome. Later, Galton tried to make the case that a face with average proportions would always look more beautiful than a unique, individual face.

Subsequent studies of both men and women had shown that averaging features seemed to make the faces more attractive than any specific face. When a collection of computer averaged faces and real female faces were submitted to a famous modeling agency for comments, 80% of the computer generated faces were selected as having potential to be a model. Scientists believed that average faces were more easy for the brain to recognize and require less analysis and processing in the fusiform. This ease of recognition was perceived as attractiveness.

But this theory has recently been disproved by Dr David Perrett, of the University of St Andrews, who found that individual faces were judged more attractive than the composites.


"We found that not only were individual attractive faces preferred to the composites, but that when we used the computer to exaggerate the composite features away from the average,that too was preferred," he said.
This would account for the popularity of actresses such as Brigitte Nielsen and Daryl Hannah [right], who have features that are far from average.


Attractiveness - a summary of facts

Attractive people earn more salary and get more promotions than average looking people.
One main feature that is indicative of healthy genetics is the symmetry of the face.
Recognition of beauty fosters better mate selection and healthier breeding.
Beautiful people usually associate with other beautiful people.
Beautiful people prefer date people who are a little more attractive than themselves.
Beautiful people and less beautiful people judge beauty in the same way, although less beautiful people often consider other factors as equally important.
People consider facial characteristics similar to their parents to be more attractive.
Members of a family or relations judge facial characteristics as implying personality traits in the same way.
Studies find couples often resemble eachother in facial characteristics.
Attractive people are viewed as honest and helpful while unattractive people are viewed as rude and unfair.
Women find a man more attractive in experiments when other women are pictured smiling at him.
Females find extremely masculine faces more attractive during their fertile periods.
Studies find less attractive men are more faithful and loving than handsome men.
Women looking for a mate like small eyes, a big nose and a large jaw.
Males in experiments prefer facial ratios similar to a woman of 24.8 years old.
The ideal figure of a woman is a waist to hip ratio of 0.67 to 0.80


Psychologist David Perrett found that young men and women prefer faces that most resemble their mothers and fathers. Members of a close family also often share the interpretation of certain facial characteristics in judging someone's personality. Although this does not relate directly with beauty or attractiveness, it demonstrates that some aspects of evaluating facial characteristics may be learned.

My own take on this is that it's a matter of nature vs. nurture. Various centers of our hard wired brain, like the fusiform, compete to control our daily decisions. One center is concerned with mate selection based on physical traits. Others brain regions respond to a potential mate who is also intelligent, honest, faithful, kind and sane. Attractiveness, in the end, actually is unique to each individual. It should be said that, "beauty is in the eyes (plural) of the beholder." It's more a matter of left and right brain politics and somehow both hemispheres must work together to attract us to the perfect mate, as they usually do. Life is beautifully complex.

Facial Attraction: Choice Of Sexual Partner Shaped The Human Face

According to Science Daily, men with large jaws, flaring cheeks and large eyebrows are sexy, at least in the eyes of our ancestors, researchers at the Natural History Museum have discovered. Facial attractiveness played a major role in shaping human evolution, as studies on our fossil ancestors have shown our choice of sexual partner has shaped the human face.



"I'm too sexy for my face..."
The face holds the secret to determining the sex of our ancestors and what makes us attractive to the opposite sex for reproduction.

According to palaeontologists at the Natural History Museum, men have evolved short faces between the brow and upper lip, which exaggerates the size of their jaw, the flare of their cheeks and their eyebrows. The shorter and broader male face has also evolved alongside and the canine teeth have shrunk, so men look less threatening to competitors, yet attractive to mates.

At puberty, the region between the mouth and eyebrows, known as upper facial height, develops differently in men and women. Unlike other facial features, however, this difference cannot be explained simply in terms of men being bigger than women. In spite of their larger size men have an upper face similar in height to a female face, but much broader. These differences can be found throughout human history. As a result, a simple ratio of measures could be used to calculate facial attractiveness in a biological and mathematical way.

In fact, scientists have recently invented a computer program that can recognize attractiveness. See here.

Dr Eleanor Weston, palaeontologist at the Natural History Museum said, 'The evolution of facial appearance is central to understanding what makes men and women attractive to each other. We have found the distance between the lip and brow was probably immensely important to what made us attractive in the past, as it does now.'

Well then please produce a source that states that symmetric bone structure is more common among latinos then elsewhere.
The reality is, that you can find that anywhere to the same amount.

I can not but give my personal observation-and honest view that its quite common amongst chicanos -and more prevealent in some latinos( nicaraguans and puerto ricans ,columbians). There are quite round faced mestizos -with totally non asymmetrical features. But there are in higher numbers ones that would describe to the concepts of universal beauty-its obvious in the amounts of cross racial births and marriages being in equal porportions MALE/FEMALE mixtures that other races view us likewise as "good enough to marry"..........If you put it in perspective..........over 1/2 of all interracial relationships in the USA involve a latino. And California accounts for 25% of all interracial marriages nationwide.....with latinos(chicanos) being almost completely involved in those interracial relationships. I get from that( and i would like to hear your counter argument) ....that 1. attraction is the biggest reason for couplings 2. Since latinos are able to marry in numbers unheard of in CA -that other races also view what latinos view as attractive in us.


But its all conjecture! You said every race has people with symmetrical bone structure, and I agree -but would it be un PC to say that some nationalities have them in larger numbers? Would the average chicano in LA have these features....in my honest opinion Id have to say YES. And I would take issue with your location if you disagreed. Its hard to disagree if your from this area.

[mayugastank]

Setenza -

One more thing if my opinion was biased in this matter I wouldnt have conceded that other latinos -have larger numbers of attractive people. I clearly stated that nicaraguans and puerto ricans have more people who would subscribe to the universal concept of beauty. The symmetrical features are the vast percentage of people of nicaraguan descent. Whereas in chicanos its common -enough //maybe 50%?.......but in Nicaraguans the number has to be about 80%.....its weird. My reasons for these beliefs have to do with isolation and breeding ...a 100 years ago people werent as likely to travel and breed outside their homelands. You can go to spots in Mexico where symmetrical wouldnt describe a .0001% of the aztec people. Yet Nicaraguans are some type of different indian with really fine features. Chilieans are also known for this. As are many Columbians. Guatemaleans on the other hand RARELY would have universal traits of beauty as would Somalians, Armenians, Chinese,Samoans,Africans.

Its all my opinion and its what I have seen quite frequently. I dont have proof as in this PC world a scientific racial study on beauty would bring about calls of RACISM from all the worlds UGLY people....hahaha....hey though thanks for bearing with me~I know this thread is mostly based on opinions of racial beauty BUT can we at least agree that their is a UNIVERSAL STANDARD OF BEAUTY?.......you said earlier you didnt concur.

I have no problem agreeing with that. I just said that beauty ideals are culturally influenced and highly subjective.

Here:
Dynamic Beauty: Cultural Influences and Changing Perceptions

A culture’s ideals of physical appearance are dynamic. Change can be induced by external cultural contact and, particularly, domination. Do these affected standards of beauty imply a kind of reverse ethnocentrism?

http://www.uhh.hawaii.edu/academics/hoh ... .php?id=87

Why beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Cultural images influence our perception of attractiveness
Excerpt:

Sexiness evolves according to what we see over and over. This mechanism, Winkielman noted in a statement, “accounts for cultural differences in beauty — and historical differences in beauty as well — because beauty basically depends on what you’ve been exposed to and what is therefore easy on your mind.”

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15098830/

In other words: What appeals to you or your friends may be totally odd somewhere else.

The problem is, you make an allegation and base your conclusion on that allegation without having proven the first allegation in the first place. Its called circular reasoning.
Its not about PC. The term PC has been coined by some outdated conservatives who were pissed that genetical science has refuted racism and racial categories and even the existance of races.
So they blame this reality on "political correctness", as if there were some dark forces trying to suppress them, trying to portray themselves as some sort of freedom fighters when they are in fact the opposite, because they want to re-establish social theories about mankind which are from the middle ages and outdated.
Btw. i have spent about 4 months of my life in Los Angeles County, so i have at least some sort of insight as to what it looks like.
I would say that the high number of interracial-relationships in California is due to the fact that California is a highly mixed state. And the fact that its a majority latino involved in this doesnt surprise me either considering the amount of Latinos in the state.
You would also have to ask yourself why so many latinos marry non-latinos if their own knd is the ne plus ultra?

To put it short:
Skin color, body height, hair color and thin/thick body shape are no factor in defining beauty, because they do varyfrom country to country.
So whats left?
