Why are Irish people so ugly?

    (^^^If you type "why" into google.ie. For some reason, typing "why" then space this question moves up one.)

    I was having a conversation with a stunning girl from Cork (i.e. not really Ireland) about why people from Ireland are ugly. The conversation originated from a Romanian (i.e. not Roma) taxi driver with extensive knowledge.

    I'm ruddy-faced, hairy and pale but still incredibly beautiful by international standards. So, what's the story?

    Edit: link fixed.

    The English killed all our pretty folk.

    We are probably more inbred then mainland europe and our ancestors were a bit slower then everyone else when it came to getting civilised.

    As an outsider; Irish people aren't ugly.. it's just some weird inferiority complex you've got going on


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭genericguy


    i'm fairly alright looking, and my burd is top notch, and we're both irish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,070 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    If I type 'why' into the Google search bar on my browser the top suggestion is 'why are black people so loud' in second place we have 'why can't I own a Canadian' and in a respectable third, 'why is my poop green'

    true story

    Google really is a mine of information

    Irish people are weathered....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,973 ✭✭✭RayM


    And if you type "Why are" into Google, the second suggestion is "why are the irish impervious to psychoanalysis".

    Fück you, Freud. Fück you.

    Other way round actually. We were there first and then the others got curious, decided to pay us a visit and ended up plundering the bejasus out of the place :D

    We are not ugly - the rest of the world just don't have the brains/sight to appreciate and comprehend our beauty.
    End of story. I feel sorry for them. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,134 ✭✭✭Lux23


    I'm glad I am not full Irish, gives me a nice smug feeling. I still could be ugly.

    Genetics

    But Irish peopel share the same ancestry as people from The Basque region and the Pyrenees area an they can be quite doable!

    What like a breakfast or something?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 167 ✭✭Adhamh


    From Google.ie, if you type in 'why', the second suggestion is 'why are Irish people so ugly', no joke. A lot of people are looking for answers.

    (My suggestion: probably such a crap diet)

    I'm fully Irish on both sides, but somehow i'm very tanned, have dark brown hair and eyes and am small (typical Irish trait) but my features don't look Irish or anything. And before anyone says it I'm sure that I'm not adopted and that my parents are my parents!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26,567 ✭✭✭✭Fratton Fred


    Its an inbuilt defence mechanism. The uglier you are, the less chance there is of being rogered by a priest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,178 ✭✭✭Bob the Seducer


    It doesn't come up if you try on google.com

    That said, the 4th suggestion down on google.com is "Why can't I own a Canadian" so obviously different places have different pressing issues...

    Being told you're not ugly by the English is like being told you're not a bad dad by Josef Fritzl.

    But my Mom says I'm beautiful......


    Are you calling my Mom a liar?!

    Do you have a family tree going back 400 generations or so? What do you consider Irish features to be? Seriously interested as I've been reading some books on genetics and ancestry.

    16-year-old guys tend to be attracted to pretty much anything. So sorry, your vote doesn't count.

    Google really is a mine of information

    Our low genetic diversity increases the chances that reccessive mutations will show themselves (and many of these cause decreased attractiveness). In people with a more diverse genetic heritage many of these ugly genes remain unexpressed giving them a more attractive appearance.
