i don't think it's just a fear of rejection to be honest.
I've noticed that many beautiful girls are letting themselves go after they get married and have babies. I mean there is a huge difference between the number of stunning girls aged 18-28 and the one aged 29-39.
Few friends of mine who were really foxy ladies became more similar to my old auntie after just 2 years of marriage and a baby.:p
I know that the married life doesn't allow people to have a lot time to take care of themselves and the pregnancy is a huge stress for a woman's body but wherever i go (France, Italy, Spain etc..) i see many married women with children (aka MILFs ) still attractive.

Anyway, what i said above is even worse when we talk about men.

Ah but you see when married and with babies,only person they want to think want them is their husbands,and rightly so

I never got this. Wouldn't you want to look nice for your husband? I've noticed when I'm dating someone I'm actually more careful about what I eat and working out.

its a bad diet and lack of simple exercise like walking.
nobody walks in ireland, the public transport is so bad that having a car is essential for 90% of the population.
couple that with the fact that every second establishment in ireland is either a chipper, chinese takeaway or pub and u have a recipe for obesity and bad skin.
+ the bad weather doesnt help, nobody ever has to show skin in ireland because its ****ing freezing, even on the "hottest" summer days in the year, therefore people can hide all sorts of misery underneath those clothes.
thus...your answer....
believe me lads, it aint the same here in spain
its funny actually, my german cousin who's slightly older than me used to visit us in dublin every year or two and just last week i met up with him and he remarked at how irish women have almost inflated in general over the past 20 years.
americanized/irish diet has killed any good looks we did have...

AB03

and also, not saying the men are any different...
irish diets in general are disgusting really, male or female, in comparison to most other places in the world (with the obvious exception of america, england and probably canada + aus).

LMAO you think i was talking about myself.
I always took care of myself and watched what i eat and worked out didnt do it when i was dating or for anyone but me.

If I type in "Why are Irish" they come up in the following order:

why are irish people so stupid
why are irish people so white
why are irish people alcoholics
why are irish people so beautiful
why are irish men so hot
why are irish people so proud

So it's all plain sailing.

That wasn't directed at you specifically; it was more a general comment on what seems to be an unfortunately common phenomenon.

Q. Why are married women heavier than single women?
A. Because single women come home, take a look at what's in the fridge and go to bed. When married women come home, they check out what's in the bed and head straight to the fridge.

I find that very hard to believe because English and Scottish people are practically the same people.

India number 8? :rolleyes:

I don't know how this study was done, or who took the study. But it would seem to me that they should take about 100 random people between ages of 20 and 40 (after 40 a poor diet might start to have a big impact and that's not what we're looking for). They should weigh between 130 and 180 pounds. All people sporting moustaches or something like that should be excluded, obviously all make-up is excluded. The people then should vote for each person from each country without knowing what country that person was from.

100 people from each country would be necessary, especially to separate out the England vs Scotland or England vs Wales. 100 is only 50 for each sex. It would barely be a couple for each type of look...: freckled, acne, long-nosed, large-eyebrowed, big round face, red-faced, skinhead, furrowed over nose, much facial hair, etc.

Blah, blah, blah, I know my post was boring but I'm just trying to talk about the realistic ways that you could do this study. I DOUBT they actually did all that, sometimes I would like to give them a smack for the things they do with things like obvious confounding factors. :rolleyes:

I'm living in England at the moment and I actually think they are a lot more attractive as a whole. Yeah there are a lot of Vicky Pollard types around but they are balanced out at the other end.

I always thought of the Irish and English as being from the same genetic stock but being over here has made me appreciate the difference between Celtic and Anglo-Saxon genes. There's a lot more people with sallow complexions here and the skin quality in general seems to be better. I also think that people dress better over here as well.

Previously I lived in New Zealand and that's another jump again. One of the things I really noticed there is how few teenagers smoked and also how I hardly ever saw any beer bellies. The diet and lifestyle there is entirely different as well.

Most New Zealander's trace their ancestry to these islands so it really made me think of how Irish people could look if we took better care of ourselves.

I've done quite a bit of travelling and in all honesty there are quite a few stinkers in all countries. I'd say in terms of percentage of population Ireland holds its own - and I'd be surprised if there is a large variance.

USA gets a good rep for looks but it is very regionalised and they also have a large population from which to pick the camera friendly people. The good looking people there are more likely to take pride in their appearance rather than having natural genetics.

Teeth whitening, braces, good diet, pride and style can make many people quite attractive.

I'd say Irish peoples 'lack of attractiveness' is more due to lack of pride in appearance rather than poor genetics.

Ireland is also a small country so we have a smaller pool to pick out our beauties from.

"Ugly" is subjective. I for instance, like Asians, and I can guarantee that somebody reading this doesn't.

now on a very very boring night i managed to read through the whole thread! several things:
- inbreed (for sure)
- unbeneficial lifestyle (sure)
- tough luck with genes in the first place (sure)
- radon radiation (not helping)

that's that. i'm quite well traveled and i must say the average irish person is well let's say not as good looking as say a lot of other people in europe. but even with bad preconditions as mentioned, the bad dress sense doesn't help either. don't get me wrong, sure there are stunners and the opposite as everywhere else. but look at the saturday night out:

there are girls dressed a tiny bit better than hookers (sorry), a whole make-up shop in the face, trying to pull (a decent guy) and then wondering why the lads think they're easy to get? with the girls i often miss a certain amount of style, elegance and i don't know, it's hard to describe. someone earlier mentioned a lack of down to earth mentality. it's true. it's just over the top. going into a tiny pub in the midlands dressed up like a beauty queen in a way too short and tight skirt... and even during the week, someone else put it very nicely, the fat squeezed out on the waist (a waist, which is basically non-existent anyway with irish build unless with stick monsters) or something... sometimes one should just face truth and buy the size that fits! and the lads, well. they are certainly a lot more laid back, sometimes too much. i honestly do not know what it is, but there's something wrong in this country.

also everyone always says everything is good craic and whatnot. irish also come along quite superficial and dull a lot of times, but i don't think that's something the folks are quite aware of. big turn-off though!

some features sure the irish can't do a lot about, but do you have to present the more disadvantageous ones so offensively????

You've a knack for observing and analysing species, you should apply to be David Attenborough's replacement when he retires.

Your post will get plenty of thanks from self-hating Irish people though in fairness...
