What a lot of stereotypes. &quot;A short  woman if she is not overweight is still attractive&quot;. Come off it. 

There are lots of features in a woman which make her attractive. 

What a chauvinistic and archaic remark. 

Is this how you see women?  The laws of attraction are much more compIex. What an immature comment. &quot;Big breasts&quot; indeed. &quot;Eastern European competition&quot;. Come on. Start looking at a woman as a person not as a pair of long, lean legs. Comments like yours, frankly, disgust me.]]></description>

&quot;It was a ground-breaking advertising campaign using &quot;real women&quot;, complete with curves and normal length legs and within a month sales of the Dove range of firming creams had doubled.&quot;

&quot;But other research in the past has shown that women will usually say they would like to see bigger models in advertising, but when shown ads with larger models they are more likely to want to buy the product advertised by the &quot;perfect&quot; woman.&quot;


For Malta&#039;s minute population, the ad might just work as everyone will look at some of those faces nd exclaim....iiiiii dak nafu!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I think every country has it&#039;s beautiful and not so beautiful people.I find the British as not a particularly good looking race..most of them look as if they are going to sneeze in a second. I recently was at Bristol airport with hundreds of british  in the departure area and I was sitting having a coffee and out of all those hundreds going by, I hardly saw a dozen beautiful girls ,apart from the hideous clothes all were wearing( even the dozen beautiful ones were dressed badly),most were overweight and yes many were short too.I do not mean that I do not like them ,the politeness I notice when I visit Britain, their que keeping ( the only people who do it ..I know as I work in a hotel) and their fairplay .Many men from the continent are facinated with our young girls.Most british and other northen girls are flat chested but ours have the most sexy and beautiful breasts ( from a very young age) The only draw back we have is in height but a short women if she is not overweight is still attractive.
One can sit outside in a caffe here and admire our girls and there will be many but I ask you how you can do that in Britain.
The competision I see is fro the eastern european girls as there the vast majority are beautiful.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As a spectacularly good looking alpha person myself (cough), I concur.

I wouldn&#039;t be seen dead in a political campaign because there will always be repercussions to come and bite you badly in the ass.

That&#039;s what the 80s have taught me.]]></description>
