Irish men voted Ugliest in the World. Again!

saabsaab

Just saw this today. Any truth in it? A bit harsh surely?



Dublin men were it was said the best of the bad lot!

osarusan

The website BeautifulPeople.com vets poential new members by having existing members vote on whether they are attractive enough to be allowed to become a member.

Approval rate for Irish men was at 6%, putting Irish men at the bottom of the list, joint with UK and Poland. For Irish women it was 29%.



Much much more than anything else, this is a website out for publicity.

Yurt2

It's difficult for the ladies of the world to experience our raw sexual energy and charm via a photo on a website alone. You gotta buy a ticket and take the ride.

Any list that has the Polish languishing down with the Irish in terms of attractiveness isn't worth a runny ****e.

As a male, every other male on this planet is an ugly b@stard.

"I'm good-looking enough to sign-up!"

Pays to sign-up.

"I knew I was good-looking enough. I really showed them! Oh wait..."

Absolute BS

Hande hoche!

Will quickly reframe that as being the best at being ugly.

Well I would rather be how I look. I would not be happy if I looked like a poncey blonde from Norway or Sweden.

Loads of lovely Irish men. And best sense of humour in the world!

I am gay and I would disagree. I find Irishmen much more attractive than Dutch men generally.

However there is one thing that is a problem with Irishmen and that is their half rotten teeth. They really need to do more in the dental care department.

Who knows, maybe the Irish scores were skewed by lads throwing up unflattering photos of their mates for the craic? Or the only Irish men applying were just weirdos, like AVB's persona.

Certainly I can't imagine any Irish male I know sincerely applying to a website explicitly for beautiful people only. The culturally enforced modesty and fear of what's sometimes called begrudgery is just too great. In the States on the other hand they're all conditioned to believe the sun shines out of their arse.

And the ugliest men in Ireland are in Limerick (apparently).
To confirm this as a fact, just park on O' Connell Street in Limerick city during working hours i.e. while everyone else is working, and watch the exhibits on display.
It is a horror movie with a thousand sequels.

Disclaimer: Limerick people in general are very nice.

Irish men on the whole wouldn't look any different to English/Scottish/Welsh men.

True enough except for the English in the 'home counties' they look different.

If you avoided those types yourself you'd see they're not the only Irish women.

Sorry but for me as an outsider (Dutch) I would say that scandinavian men are more handsome than Irish men.

But I would say that Irish men are moreh andsome than Dutch, German or Finnish men for example.

At the end of the day all of this is subjective.

Definitely agree with you there, some would be vastly improved with a little bit of grooming but not too much mind you, I wouldn't want them turning into Italians, excessive vanity would be a huge turn off for me.

I'd prefer if you looked like a blonde from Norway or Sweden, though.

I think his point was the Vikings went around stealing all the attractive women from Ireland while pillaging the place and thinning out our attractiveness gene pool. (FTR though I think Irish women are very good looking and easy-going, relatively speaking)

They obviously hadn't much of an interest in humour though, they left all the smart arses here to make jokes about it, and they developed into the most boring shower of hoors on the continent themselves.

I think the teeth thing was probably true in the past, but in my experience most Irish gay men have good teeth lol (disclaimer I am one and I have been told I have lovely teeth).
I think guys in UK and Ireland are on a par looks wise, but hard to compete with Sweden and those other bloody scandi countries the handsome gits.

Is our ugliness official to the extent it's in the 'Current Affairs' forum? :pac:

Does this not just mean that we are overachievers?

But didn't they spread their genes here too! Anyway I read somewhere that they took women (presumably good looking) and also some men to keep their women happy when they were away raiding!

Hmmm. I find the Scandinavian attractive men thing to be way overblown. They have kind of bland immobile faces, objectively they should be aesthetically pleasing, but there is an absence of dynamism and imperfection Also they often appear to me, in media images and in person, to be somewhat effete. I like rugged faces. For the same reason overly coiffed Mediterranean guys do not attract me, too predictable and samey. Just as a wild generalisation of course. I like Eastern European men, if I was to look outside Irish men, who I like for their divilment, lovely eyes and charm. The Irish men are often very handsome.

Thelonious Monk

It's hard for me to gauge as I'm so good looking myself, but having lived in various countries i certainly don't think we're much worse, male or female, than most countries. We do have an awful lot of slob types in tracksuits etc. and terrible dress sense with either sex.

Grand job because most Irish lads have faces like a bag of dented bells.

Irish men are the best in the world. Very attractive and best sense of humour.

And even of there are a few ugly ones, they are our ugly ones!!

Dating foreign men never measures up because of the humour difference. Plenty will disagree but I think you can't beat it.

Ya can't bate it!

The Scottish are much worse in this regard nowadays I find. Personal hygiene standards especially within the male populace in Ireland has risen significantly but Scotland is stuck in a time warp in that regard. Whatever about smoking they have this thing about sucking on sugary sweets all day as well which obviously isn't good for teeth. That's just an anecdotal impression I have noticed over the years.

What does hygiene mean to people these days, I would have thought control of bacteria on skin,hair and teeth but it seems to include stylistic maintenance now too?

Well I was talking about teeth. Skin doesn't suffer from bacteria particularly but it does react hugely to one's diet.

But you do raise a good point - and that is I think certainly in the case of women more so -they mistake 'fashion' i.e hair styling,makeup, clothes- to health. All that stylistic maintenance is quite expensive. The wise money would go on quality food - being healthy is attractive no matter what one's god given looks.

Website comes from the US does it not? Nice enough straight-up direct people, but also the most obese nation on earth, so enough said really.
When flying there, always cross you fingers the plane seat beside you doesn't get 30+st of laden beef on it, hampering your breathing opportunities.

Irish always gets voted sexiest accent, so ugliest people with sexiest accent, that's funny.

I think the problem is that a lot of Irish men seem to go grey &/or bald in their 30s.
We are used to it here, but other countries don't have that same genetic thing.
It's not unattractive as such, but if you are from a country were it doesn't happen, maybe Irish men look not so attractive..........
