Yeah, truly I don't know what stops women from waiting until men are asleep and gutting them sometimes.

But don't get me wrong, I find some personalities deserving of scorn. Tyra Banks comes to mind. Let her be my neighbor for 2 days... it is all I ask.

There are many women accountable for this too. Those in the industry of fashion, film, television, dance, professional skating (isu and usfsa). Broadway even, the casting directors. It's a 'system'.  I've witnessed words and actions from women that are much more severe than the men.

And the men are suffering from this as well in these industries. You rarely see media coverage of male dancers, actors, athletes who suffer from the self mutilation and eating disorders.

He mutilated himself.  That's all it can be called.

Was it just all the bad plastic surgery? He was also a boxer too, wasn't he? He truly looks like a monster now.

Very true. Also, this idea of beauty or that which we consider attractive is a manufactured machine. I took a course at Parsons, NYC...'The History of Body'. Examinations of cultural relativism of beauty in history. Scarring, tattoos, etc. And the industry of beauty over the years that promote it.

My father working in fashion photography, it was revealing. Personally, there's so much alluring to the 'what we call flawed'. ..as mentioned, the intellect and other attributes that result in sexy, attractive.

Oh cool  8) Did you meet Tim Gunn??  Sounds like an interesting course.  It's all in front of the intent--meaning that comes first.  Does one mark their body to Peacock or to get people to see that they are in pain??

IMO a great example of alluring is Streisand's nose.  It's beautiful and I'm glad she never changed it.

Herman Leonard was a Fashion Photographer and his claim to fame became a box of photographs of jazz artists he had taken in night clubs during party time.  Great Pix too.  Does your Father take hobby pix too?

No, I was a theater major at The New School. You could take classes in all three divisions (Mannes School for Music, Parsons, Actor's Studio). But as an illustrator too, I took a couple Parsons courses. My father was a professional in the Fine Arts. Theatre, painting, artistic director in advertising. He did photo shoots for Vogue, etc. Never met Tim. But, friends I studied with adore him.

That class 'History of The Body' was amazing and forced you to realize the cultural differences and also eras.

Streisand's nose, indeed! Also, Jennifer Grey's nose, in my opinion, was lovely as it was, but then she had it redone. Lauren Hutton's gap.

Are we still talking about actresses we find revolting?

Julia Roberts, Julia Stiles, Drew Barrymore & Kirsten Dunst. Blecchh.

          You just hit for the cycle.

          Don't get me started on my "How did Julia Roberts get famous, while Sherilyn Fenn disappeared" diatribe that I harangued passerby with in the mid 90's.

Seriously. She has a mouth like a bear trap.

Question for the men: Do you think Sandra Bernhart is sexy? (pretty sure I misspelled her name). Not a famous actress...but I've heard mixed reviews on her from men.

NO.

Not really, perhaps in the 80-90's sultry. I think she is smart/challenging to conventions, which to me is very attractive. But I think (could be wrong) her interests lean away from men.

I've never gotten it about her. Talent, looks or personality. Just....nada.
Quote from: Chine on October 04, 2013, 03:40:33 PMMickey Rourke. What a shame. He was absolutely attractive at one time. Especially, in 9 1/2 weeks.
Mickey Rourke? He's exactly what Robert Louis Stevenson had in mind when he wrote Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde. That was a quite a trick he pulled by adding that half-inch of Neanderthal brow he got from doing gallons of HGH, plus the 100 pounds of freakish body mass he got from a decade of crazy use of injectable steroids (which BTW will have necessarily turned his testicles into lumps of near-flesh about the size, softness and utility of a pair of marbles). Sandra Bernhard's testicles have more life in them than Mickey Rourke's. And speaking of Sandra, I kinda like her because she just will not submit. You go, uh, girl.

Absolutely true. And I'll start applying the same admittedly harsh standard regarding comment about physical characteristics of celebrities to myself and regular folks just as soon as we hold ourselves out as celebrities and use our faces and bodies to become millionaires.

      If I do (I'm not skilled enough to blow up anything) this is the essence I want captured. I have nice blue eyes for it:

Hell Eddie, you are more the scanners type... I can see you popping heads from blocks away.



Now that is you... and I would vote for ya.

       Bless you. It's one of my all time favorites, and when those veins start throbbing in my head I can empty a room quicker than someone with sulfuric flatulence.

       I had the unsolicited sobriquet "lift off" in my union steward days. Once I started pacing, let the countdown begin.

         I always found Eastwood's attraction to Sandra Locke...odd. I thought she was a bit bird-faced. Looks like a nurse who'd poison patients at a VA hospital.

Sondra Locke reminds me of a rat. I shudder every time I look at her. And there's no doubt she has Eastwood to thank for her career, inasmuch as he jammed her square peg into every round hole of a movie he made until he better-dealed her. Clint's whole style of using the casting couch as a way to scout life partners creeped me out. He was blatant about it, like a 30's movie mogul: "Schtick with me, Shweetheart, and I'll make you a star!". First it was Sondra Locke who he replaced with Frances Fisher. I want to include Lesley Anne Warren as the first casting couch girl, but maybe that's just because she's also a redhead which Eastwood seems so attracted to making his long-term mistress.

I think you are conjoining issues, then doing the same with your contempt. Certainly your perogative. If you wish to call Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, or other celeb for no reason whatsoever... well I kind of agree with you. On the other side of the fence, however, I don't think SJP ever looked down her nose at anyone... I could be wrong.

Sarah Jessica Parker became a celebrity due her acting, particularly because of a role on a television show. I am not on a soap box defending SJP. Just stating the obvious.

Flight of the Navigator is where I first remember seeing her.  But Hollywood should have dropped her when she grew into her face.  Yuck.   I don't know what Matthew Broderick sees in her.. he could have had a million Mia Sara's.

Sexy, no, but I'd sure like to know her.

Being a  butt-ugly troll, myself, I am always a bit perplexed by these types of threads.

I don't see the point in labeling people ''ugly'' or not. Cliche as it may sound, everybody has their own attractive qualities.

For the record, I always found SJB sexy as Hell. In fact, her confidence was extremely titillating!

SJP was the shit in Flight of the Navigator.

The little boy in that movie is annoying as fuck and whines the entire time.
