1. French - I can say that French women are some of the best looking women I have seen in my personal experience. A good mix of blonde and brunette in that country and quite a few women there have the exotic tanned skin appearance. I am going to be bold here and say that this country has the most attractive women in Western Europe. As for the men, seems like a lot of women like Bapiste Giabaconi.

2. People from the Middle East - mainly the Lebanese and Persian people in general. Due to bad relations with that area, we stereotype people from that part of the world to be unattractive but in my experience I have met many attractive Middle Eastern women. Also, a lot of girls I have talked to find Middle Eastern men to be handsome.

3. Indians and South Asians - I know the Mindy Project is about an Indian girl but I have met far more attractive Indian women than her in real life and in visiting India. Freida Pinto is a knockout for me, I love her. As for the men, apparently people find the guy from Heroes (show that used to run on NBC) attractive.
My husband is Middle Eastern, & oooh weeee he is a HOT man

I like these people, very much, and have relatives in Norway ... but Scandinavians don't strike me as particularly physically attractive.
Agreed. I find a high percentage of Scandinavian women have rather masculine facial features. Of course the ones you see on tv are attractive but they aren't necessarily the norm.

I guess that stereotypical Nordic blond blue eyed look has become the global beauty standard for better or worse. Look how popular skin whitening products are among Asian women especially in the Philippines. Or the eye surgery amongst some Asian women to make them look more Western.

That is not my experience but Scandinavian women are definitely taller than most.

Not that Asian women are under rated looks wise but I went to Vietnam a few years ago. The women were stunning....

I have no idea which nationalities are underrated but I don't care for a lot of looks I see in the USA media too much fake boobs, too top heavy and not enough on the bottom, with narrow hips and a lot stick figures. I prefer ass, thighs and hips instead of silicone boobs.

North Africans, very good looking men and women.





Ethiopians, the women at least are quite pretty.

This is all so subjective and relative but i guess it's fun nonetheless. In my travels i found that Danish and Brazilian women looked the prettiest and Italian and Irish men the handsomest.
