    Too much inbreeding? Or are we underrated?

    I think Irish women are gorgeous. I really do.
    A wonderful variety of shapes and sizes, hair and skin colors, Freckes, dimples.....and they ALL have great bottoms.

    As a nation, the majority of us have big, Sellafield heads alright but there are a few exceptions.

    A large percentage of Irish people will have genetics from other countries due mainly to the Vikings, Normans, British.


    Get good and bad looking people everywhere.

    You could say that about any country and we have less variety. Irish people are so ugly thst we put the Brits on a pedestal, while every other european considers them ugliest

    Irish people put the british on a pedestal for their looks?

    Well you could say it about every country, because it's the truth, we come in all shapes and sizes.

    That's a stupid childish thing to say, ugly know's no borders, but there are more beautiful people in the UK than in Ireland, but there's also more ugly people in the UK than in Ireland, more fat and more skinny, but that's because there's about 15 times more people in the UK than in Ireland.

    Every European person alive today is a descendant of every European who produced offspring in the 9th century. Nothing to do with the Vikings. Everything to do with maths.

    I'm a direct descendant of Charlemagne. And of his head gardener. And so are you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,410 ✭✭✭✭endacl


    Just out of interest, OP....

    Are you just generally negative about everything except Pro Evolution Soccer? Is there anything else you do like, or at the very least can refrain from sneering at?

    Genuine question.

    But his gardener was a minger. Ah. I see...

    So....

    If I were to start a thread along the lines of "Isn't pretending to play football on a computer and watching 'roided up men in tights pretending to fight a bit silly", OP probably wouldn't partake?

    Note to self...

    Grace Kelly /thread.

    So we're just gana ignore the fact she had a German born mother.

    Of course there can be good looking Irish people, but when the likes of Brian O'Driscoll and Roz Purcell are heralded for their looks, you know your country isn't up to much.

    Bressie is a genuinely handsome guy though, girls rave about Shane Long but put him in the Italian team and he'd be the scruffy unkept one. Rob Kearney is alright, big freckly head on him though.

    Girl wise, I'm not so sure.

    The majority just need to learn the whole less is more thing regarding make up. Too many oompalumpa's and/or self applied bushy McDonald arches eyebrows. Both look absolutely ridiculous and are a huge turnoff.

    We're Irish, we're supposed to be pale skinned.

    Everyone and I mean everyone looks better tanned, unless you are some one off model or Hollywood actress under perfect lighting.

    That's the thing... You probably are, depending on who's looking. Eye of the beholder, and all that.

    Top tip: Attitude and outlook go a long way.

    Tan the bingo wings or bleach the anus?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,960 ✭✭✭Dr Crayfish


    "Rotters". I haven't heard that since The Young Ones ffs.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,759 ✭✭✭Winterlong


    The Rotters were a UK band that had a banned song called 'Sit on my face Stevie Nicks'.



  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 246 ✭✭PlamenDon

    A bit of both.

    If this thread shows anything it's that we as a nation have incredibly low self-esteem and lots of self-loathing. Plenty of stunning looking Irish as well as total mingers. IMO not as many plain looking people as the British.

    Us Irish punch well above our weight internationally and we should be proud of that fact.

    Not everyone and I mean not everyone would agree with that. Walk into pharmacies in Asia and it won't be fake tans and the likes on the shelf, it's products for bleaching skin. The popularity of the tanned look is only a recent Western phenomenon, previously it pointed to their employment as a farm labourer or such.

    Re: Ignoring Grace Kelly I suppose Georgia Salpia and Micheal Fassbender got all their good looking genes from Greece and Germany?

    This thread shows the opposite! You're confusing the opening post with the whole thread.

    Also, at this point it's important to point out that rotter ≠ minger. Rotter = cad, or scoundrel.

    Most Irish people are pretty decent. Ergo, not rotters. Thread premise is not only incorrect, but incorrect on several levels.

    Irish people are fine. We come in a variety, theres plenty of hot and ugly irish people, but most of us are just average. Likewise for every other country. Maybe we have a slight disadvantage due to the sickly white skin tone and high obesity rates but still that doesn't mean we all have bad skin and are fat. When I go abroad I don't recall ever being taken aback by how beautiful the natives there were compared to back home..

    I wouldn't agree with that,
    I've seen some beautiful European and Russian girls with creamy, buttery white skin,that I wouldn't change for the world.

    butters golden though innit..
    Also I think you might have liked their skin because they were pretty. Some things like pale skin can be pulled off quite well if the person is hot. Id say a similar trait that can look great on hot people is red hair. But imo if somebodys ugly and ginger , the ginger hair just makes them worse! Likewise for pale skin.
