    Hang on, Polish lads are stereotypically superfit beasts and we've got that roguish charm going on! Surely there are worse countries, like one of those small tropical island communities where they fish lots and stuff.

    Female poster here, I wouldn't agree with that at all. Irish men are HOT!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,265 ✭✭✭SugarHigh


    lol it's pretty funny. I don't know I can't imagine my life changing too much if I was better looking so I'm not too fussed.

    Couldn't this also be a measure of pickiness though? I'm not completely sure how the site works but I'm guessing it only shows your picture to people of the opposite gender who live near you(The same country at least). So this is really just a measure of that groups standards.

    How would the same guy score in different areas I wonder?

    I think the title of the piece by Joe Griffin directly underneath that one says it all for me.

    You should be agreeing with the article as you may have a vested interest in it ;)
    "Irish women are doing much better; 20 per cent of them gaining admittance to the site. This is nowhere near as high as the 68 per cent of all Swedish women"

    A spokesperson in the article did mention that a contributing factor in Irish men's lack of success is that their photos are usually of them in the pub, which to most is not very appealing. Hmmm....


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,097 ✭✭✭✭zuroph


    just read the article
    on the beautifulpeople website
    Only 9 per cent of all Irish male applicants were accepted

    BOOM! Accepted, top 9%, I'm dragging all your ugly asses up in the national indexes :pac: :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,289 ✭✭✭parker kent


    Hmm research based on really poor sampling. I'm not going to give too much credence to that!

    Pretty culturally aware alright, why?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,370 ✭✭✭Knasher


    This sounds like an attempt to get more people to sign up by calling us all ugly and then challenging us to sign up to prove them wrong and thereby increasing membership.

    I've done my part in getting our percentages up by staying well away.

    reading further it mentions maybe the photos are bad and or people should have a make over before submitting.

    lol, so after reading it I take it as Irish and Polish lads are secure enough to lash up any aul photo and sure if they don't get in no loss, there'll be beer goggles a plenty at the weekend anyway.

    Judging by the website I think the headline should read "Only 9% of Irish men are hipster metrosexual nancy boys".

    No offence intended Zuroph.

    Gotta be down to the photos. Irish men are gorgeous, and even the ones who aren't more than make up for it in personality and sense of humour, best sense of humour on the planet imo. Never managed to bag one myself though :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,425 ✭✭✭gargleblaster


    Sorry to barge in here guys but please please please don't start getting sucked into this kind of stupid crap. It's obviously not true it's just advertising for a lame dating site.

    Ignore this BS please!

    You all have lovely bottoms. :)


    on edit: OK now that I've looked at some responses, you don't seem to be falling for it at all. Nice. :) Also I second liah's opinion - best sense of humor on the planet.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,289 ✭✭✭parker kent


    Am I wrong in remembering they view people wearing glasses as ugly? I seem to remember reading that and getting agitated. Not because I wear them but because girls in glasses are hawt :P

    You should know from Boards that Irish men have the highest possible standards when it comes to women. "Miss World? Nah she's a minger" :pac:

    Hmmm, a nicer person than I would tell you you're very pretty right now.

    To that end Liah, I'm sure if you said you were Polish they'd be all over you. I see a lot of threads pop up on boards about how Polish women are superior to Irish women for no discernible reason. You could char grill a piece of dog poop and call it 'Polish cuisine' and an Irish lad would eat it.

    g'wan the lads...we don't care if the world thinks were ugly

    Damn my hateful Canadian nationality, always ruining my chances! :mad:

    In fairness I can't blame 'em, Polish birds are ridiculously good-looking.

    I was going to, but then I realised, I'm gorgeous now, I no longer need to be the hunter.

    Now to sit back and wait for my PM box to fill up.

    any minute now...
