I don't think Angelina Jolie represents the most ideal body for me. I think she's beautiful no doubt but I like women who are curvy and have meat in the right places. My range of women are ladies who are short and petite or short with nice "assets" in the right places or tall women with nice long legs. I'm not attracted to fat or chubby women but I don't mind just some meat, something I can feel and grab if you know what I mean. Very skinny and boney women don't do it for me, at all.

I don't like Angelina Jolie and I don't think she's very beautiful either, my idea of a beautiful woman is Scarlett Johanson, including the body type she possesses.

Personally, I feel that these kinds of stats are more destructive than instructive. Is it any wonder that most women, and even some men, spend too much of their time worrying about how "acceptable" they are to the opposite sex or society? Anyway, I prefer individuality and uniqueness over conformity and "perfect" ideals.

Please. I seem to be hopelessly out of it.

What was that woman wearing in the first photo? I was reminded of football pads.

I don't like the whole idea of "meat" terms. Find a better word.

I find absolutely nothing attractive about the idea that a woman would wear a size 9 shoe. That's Angelina Jolie's shoe size. My HUSBAND has smaller feet than that, for crying out loud. Those are some serious man-hoofers she's got. And actually, models typically have stupidly big feet. And spidery fingers. And then they accentuate their feet by wearing these impossibly pointy-toed clodhoppers, and call it high fashion.

Silly, really.

I think Angelina is beautiful, her features are gorgeous. She does not have the ideal body imo, but I differ from most women on here and feel the buff/female gym body is absolutely ideal.

Also, men with butts kind of freak me out a bit, if they are too big lol, I consider it too womanly. And I do agree that black women often carry themselves well and look good even if big, so that body confidence is conveyed.

People who are tall tend to have larger feet. People who are thin, I suppose, could be accused of having spidery fingers. Do you so dislike people that you would categorize them in this fashion?

I realize that we're talking about Ms. lip injections here, but criticism about her shoe size?

The most attractive women are the woman who are comfortable in their own skin, just the way they are.
