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

    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...

    grand, are you legal?

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

    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.

    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

    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.

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

    Nobody has offered to put a bit more Irish in you :confused:.
    What's happening to AH, where has the sweaty desperation of the internet gone?

    (^^^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.

    Google chooses its suggested questions based on location, search history and browsing history. It says way more about the person getting the results.

    10,000 years of cold hard wind, constant rain and eating nothing but spuds isn't the ideal conditions for beauty!!

    I don't find Irish people ugly. Yeah if i was to just look at the scangers walking around the place i'm sure i would think that. There are some great looking women here but the average girl is just well....average. Wouldn't label them ugly. Although i find a lot of girls are over weight. I reckon that's to do with the climate and the diet. When it's warm for a good part of the year and you have to wear less clothes you tend to exercise more. Also with the drink culture here there is a lot of eating fast food. And it is eating it at the wrong time too. Right before bed where you won't be burning any of it off. Also Ireland pretty much has only one lineage. Whereas somewhere like America is such a mix of races that some exotic looking gems pop up. Same for England and Australia. Immigration is relatively new for here.

    A lot of it is all relative though. I'd be considered exotic here but stick me in any Spanish speaking country and i'm just an average guy.

    Atlantic weather.
    Look what it's done to our coastline. Would be surprising if it didn't do a job on our features as well.

    Iceland seems to be doing fine.
