She is pretty, but lots of "pretty" doesn't get much below skin-deep and it is transitory. Raquel is still beautiful and charming (and pretty darned intelligent) at an age at which models are unemployable.

They say "beauty is in the eye of the beholder", how about hotness?:biggrin:

Not the same thing, imo, but still subjective.

My post earlier with videos was meant to convey the serious notion that it also depends on the moment [perhaps hormone levels!]

Hotness is not only in the eye of the beholder, but in the mind of the be-held-her. That matters a lot. If you are on the same channel as your love interest (intellectually) and get warm feedback during little periods of intimacy, then she is like a super-magnet. Movies and pretty pictures in fashion magazines can't compare.

I understand your point and the context here, but to me there is still a difference between beauty and sexiness. What you describe, I would ascribe more to passion.

To me, there is a definite difference between beautiful, and hot. I might say my sister is beautiful, but I would never think of her as hot. A pregnant woman can be beautiful, but hot? I DON'T THINK SO!

I understand your distinction (I think) but in my mind, I'd have a hard time passing over women that I know over women with a ton of pictures that their publicists have managed to get in front of you in the media.

Women don't have to be "sexy" or provocative to be attractive or hot, IMO. It's enough that they are pleasant, well-groomed, and at least somewhat attentive. If they go beyond that, they can graduate to HOT with no problem, even if they are not all that solid in the beauty department.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, show me some skin!

Truthfully, I agree, but if I'm going to judge a woman, I want to be thorough.

I don't think we can get you "hugging tickets" to all of the hotties. I'm not sure that you could survive Tsu's "adjustments" after, either.

I thought "hot" is, that when you look at a woman, your hormone levels rise.

To be able to compare notes and be objective, the woman should not be someone you know personally, since that would bias your senses.
 
  • #66
But what's the point of being with someone you don't think goes off the top of the "hotness scale"?

to quote a celebrity who was talking to his audience about the "better than sex" cake, he said, "People you are with the wrong person if think there's any way cake is better".

And there are definitely males and females who are on the low end of the good looks scale who are off the top of the "hotness scale" and the just plain attractive scale.

I only meant from a distance. :rolleyes:

I grew up in the land of bikinis and lived at the beach most summers. Us native Californians don't care much for clothing.

Because hotness isn't the only thing that matters. There are all sorts of factors that go into why one finds a woman attractive, and how hot she is is only one of them.

No argument there. But kindness, a good sense of humor, good character, creativity and just being good company make for a great friend without the "hotness factor".

On the other hand, hot with not much else? No way.

I tell you what I considered hot. When I started dating my wife and saw her bedroom for the first time, I saw a giant, green M&M on her dresser. That was good enough for me!

I had only one "steady date" in HS. She was a runner-up in the Miss Maine competition during her senior year, while I was in college. When I left her, I knew for sure that it was best for me, and at least freed her up to pursue another victim.

I came very close to marrying the WRONG girl. Luckily her true colors started showing a few months before the wedding.

So I what did I do? I ran off and joined the Mormons! :smile: I guess I figured that would do it, and it did! And I still thank God for sending me the Mormons. :biggrin: The timing was impeccable. I was just starting to realize what I was getting into... In no time at all I was playing the field again and I don't think the almost Mrs ever knew what hit her.

I actually changed majors because of what I saw as a serious problem with the people in the one I started with and i was terrified I might end up marrying one of them. HORRORS.

I didn't have to do that! Still, I wasn't smart enough to pursue my Chem lab-partner. She was paired up with a friend of mine and I didn't want to break them up.

When we "co-starred" as leads in our senior play, our stage directions were to "embrace" at the end of the play. I didn't just embrace her, but grabbed her in a lip-lock (not a very common thing in the '60's in school plays!) and she didn't break that embrace or stop kissing me until the curtain came down. The audience roared in approval (though there were some prissy old ladies that disapproved, as I found out later.) Then I saw the folly of my ways. Strike while the iron is hot.

None of the older guys, grandparents, etc, voiced any disapproval at all! They were uniformly "You go!" and similar sentiments.

It is only obvious now. I was looking for a way out but hadn't been able to admit it to myself.

One more siginificant contribution to my life by the Mormons: I was less than fifteen hours from signing the final papers and joining the Navy's nuclear officer program. Someone who had been in that program came over and spent all night talking me out of it. I know now that neither Michelle or the Navy was good for me, so it all worked out. And it wasn't long before I ditched the Mormons.

Beautiful, charming, and intelligent is a recipe for disaster...couple that with "pretty" and you may as well stay inside for the rest of your life:-p or hire a really good body guard...or several for that matter.

Raquel would need a rolling charge-account at "spatula city" just to scrape off the hangers-on. Smart, sexy, and charming... quite the package!

haha, my favorite as well

i just found out a B-rated 'Princess of Mars' staring Traci Lords was released in 2009 direct-to-DVD, a precursor to next year's 'John Carter' , LMAO.

I would be negligent if I didn't mention that, in addition to having a big, green, M&M, on her dresser, Tsu was also super-hot in a bikini!

If you want to talk about hot, as opposed to beautiful, I think Cathy Griffin qualifies. She's a good-looking woman, but she's totally hot!

It's so comforting to know that so many people find their SO/spouse the absolute hottest person they know as well as being the most fun and interesting. It should be like that for everyone. But then no one would be interested in going to heaven cause they would already be there.
