    Do Irish girls think they look unattractive if they don't pout their lips while getting their picture taken?

    If not, why do they ALL pout their lips for pictures.... Do they think they look more attractive pouting their lips for pics?

    How many more seasons of "The only way is essex" need to be made before every Irish guy starts pouting his lips for every pic he's in?

    And will he think he looks more attractive doing this?

    Not all of them do it.

    It's just a nervous twitch. They probably feel uncomfortable or shy having their photo taken and overcompensate by pulling a face.

    At the moment pouts are in. Before that it was 'Peace' signs or rabbit ears.

    Give us a few minutes while we round them all up and ask them.

    I don't think it's just Irish girls to be honest.

    It's even worse when there's a tag line "#ducklife" with the picture

    This seems to be a worldwide problem of teenage girls. Particularly if the snap is destined for facebook.

    I can't say I've seen it much in the over 22 age group.

    Welcome to Ireland ...

    ... and the United States and the United Kingdom and Australia and every single country where some a small proportion of the young female population do this.

    Still, this thread raises an "interesting" "point:" Why don't the women of Ireland do more to meet the requirements of the fine gentleman of After Hours?

    Why do you think it's only Irish girls that do it?

    Because Irish women are the worst ever, even though, confusingly, After Hours has taught me that foreign people are worse than Irish people, except maybe not unemployed Irish people...

    Anyway, the important thing is that even though the OP suggests that the television programme "The Only Way is Essex" is an influence on people who pose like this, and Essex is in England, it says in the opening post that only Irish girls do it, so why don't you accept that instead of being all negative and asking questions!?
    The OP must be right, I can't imagine they'd talk sh*te on an esteemed internet forum such as this.

    yup it's a teenage thing - I've asked my daughter why she/they do it - and apparently "they just do"!

    I've fixed your massive generalisation for you.

    Where have you seen such pictures? I have quite literally never seen this outside of internet memes.

    I've literally only seen it twice in the over 16s - and both of those were what AH would term skangers.

    So OP, why are you perving on young girls?!

    The best is when gravity seems to get stronger when girls are taking pictures and they start crouching :pac: :D
