I can't claim to have done an exhaustive study on English women, but a lot of people think that they tend toward ugly. Five friends of mine who have lived and travelled through Europe extensively all gave England as their worst or second worst country for looking at women. Reading a Patton biography this evening he complains about the same thing in 1942. It's all anecdotal though, I wish I could get funding and do a proper study. Perhaps Elijah can turn his talents toward something worthy like this?

As for the townies, if they're young they are salvageable in most cases. If they're hot they may be worth the effort.

Thanks Dip!

Townies are basically a waste. I'm sure they are attractive, just not under six inches of foundation that requires a team of archeologists for make up removal! Not to mention the fact that they seem to think they look good when they go out wearing pyjamas!

Indeed, Russian/Eastern European chicks are incredible!! Scandinavians are high on the list too! (I like blondes... it helps!)

i had 60% attendence in college, the fact i had to travel 15 miles (coupled with the fact that i'm a lazy, lazy bastard who spends too much in the pub) was probably to blame. then again, i missed out on the university i wanted to go to (by 3 marks, ffs!), so maybe i should have made more of an effort.

english girls aren't ugly, they just don't come out in the winter, come here in the summer and see all the 'sunshine shelias', it's great and anyone who east european birds are fitter than english birds is having a laugh. i work with loads of them, all i can say is i know why men there play games like russian roulette if that's all they've got to look forward to when they get home!
