So by saying that area of New Jersey has hot women you are implying that Philadelphia has hot women, but of course, hot is subjective.

Are you mainly talking about Italian girls?

DailyJournalist, are you trying to get on my good side?

I can't ignore part of my heritage either.

As long as they are not the NYC-inspired "Jersey Shore" types.

-Intellectual, career women. Montreal?, nyc, san francisco. More "natural" women.

Areas not mentioned...cold northern states, minn, north dakota, the plains, or remote states, vermont, maine. Not enough sun. More conservative dress? More traditional. More religious areas? Utah is never mentioned.

Wooded areas, forest areas are almost never mentioned. A different lifestyle than in the open cities (like so cal)?

I wonder why Montreal and not Toronto, Vancuver, Calgary?
I've heard many, many people say the we Minnesotans have beautiful women, at least young women.

Florida has an obesity rate similar to Minnesota's, and I don't find (white) women there any more beautiful, on average, than Minnesota.

Career women turn me off, sorry.

Also, you seem to have a preference for tan girls (as do I). However, in virtually all cultures, traditionally the preference was for paler skinned women.

I'm Italian on my mother's side and considering my grandmother's family was originally from Piedmont and my grandfather's from Sicily, there is a noticeable difference.

I don't find any difference between Sicilians, Napolitans, Calabrese, etc, and Northern Italy. I know napolitans that are "pale", and people from Milano and Torino that are dark.

There have been very large mouvements in population in Italy during the last 3000 years, so there are no real ethnic differences. Sicilians are like your typical Italian, you might find blonde and blue eyed Sicilians and dark Sicilians, all in the same family.

As to Italians in New York, they came from localized regions and are not illustrative. For example, a few towns are overrepresented, etc.

The "racial" differences between Italians, French and Spanish are basically B.S. invented during the XIXth Century by ultranationalistic local mouvements.

I cant speak for the entire country but from that states I have lived in and surrounding states I visited fairly often (california, arizona, new mexico, texas, colorado, oklahoma, louisiana, oregon, florida) my opinion would be Texas, there did seem to be beautiful women everywhere.

Now as for men, any ladies see the "Triple D" episode where Guy went to Alaska?
Every restaurant he went to had good looking men in it.
So is Alaska a contender for men?

I think some of what you say is true, but you have to remember that large swaths of Spain came under direct influence/integration from the Moors, and Sicily as well has been influenced by North Africans and Arab tribes for centuries. Greece, of course, was no more than a Turkish outpost under the Ottomans for a while, so I would believe that altered the ethnic composition of the nation.
