Settle a dispute for me?

[Fran Kubelik]

Poll question: Settle a dispute for me?

Is this attractive?

[Fox Mulder]

1. Uh...yeah...

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. Not to me.

[mainegreen]

3. How about you put a warning on that?

Nothing like explaining to the wife 'Uh, it's a DU thread. I had no idea what was in it...'

This is the response I got: :eyes:

[Fran Kubelik]

5. Oh dear.

:rofl: I am sorry. Do you really think I should put a warning on the picture?

[mainegreen]

13. Well, it's not so important.

I did blubber a bit over here trying to explain.

I'm sorta sure she believed me.

:D

[Sugar Smack]

4. I think it's kind of cute. She looks so much like a little pixie.

And she's also got the human bulbousness we see in normal women's thighs. I think to be cuter, though, she should be wearing a conch-shell bra. But, what do I know? :-)

[skater314159]

53. Yeah...

she's already at the beach, she just needs a shell to ride in:

[Sugar Smack]

54. SKATER! I knew it! That is so precious.

Where in the world did you get that? And is this the whole painting I've missed, without the "winds" blowing? And are those weevils or flowers?

:loveya: :yourock:

[MilesColtrane]

71. I'm not sure if that's the winds, or just a guy doing a spit take because he...

...can't believe there's naked chick riding a giant clam shell.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

6. i am not into blondes. so no.

[flvegan]

7. Very much so.

[Dr. Strange]

8. What exactly is the dispute?

She's cute, if you're into that sort of thing.

[Sugar Smack]

12. Yeah! I want to hear it, eventually.

Fer or agin? :P

[TZ]

17. yeah I'm curious about that

She definitely has some nice grapefruits...;-)

[Dr. Strange]

19. There's grapefruits in the picture?

I must have missed those.

[Sugar Smack]

22. It looks completely natural to me. Maybe I'd best go.

I'm too wrapped up in this thread. BTW, I really don't think the gal had a boob job, but that doesn't matter, whether she did or didn't. She's got a really sweet expression on her face.

[Fran Kubelik]

26. Yup. I agree with you.

So here's the interesting thing. I was bored and "stumbling" and came across this page of weird x-rays. http://www.crookedbrains.net/2007/07/unbelievable-x-rays-doctors-removed.html

On there was this picture:

Dutch actress Georgina Verbaan confounded critics who doubted the authenticity of her jugs by publishing impressive x-ray profiles on her website. The results are conclusive proof that the 25-year-old did not surgically enhance her breasts in advance of a € 200,000 photo shoot for the December issue of Dutch Playboy.

[Redstone]

32. Oh, for God's sake. That's just pathetic.

Redstone

[Sugar Smack]

33. Yeah, we all ALL of us, need Proof, right? Not about Frannie's post, but

about the fact it was an issue amongst spectators. The ones out there, anyway. :D

[Redstone]

36. "Pathetic" works perfectly for this case, yes?

Redstone

[Sugar Smack]

40. Ah, yes. I think she is cute, and sweet-looking, boob-job or no.

She has a sweet smile.

[Fran Kubelik]

41. What is?

My story about stumbling on the x-ray page and getting curious?
The fact that she took x-rays of her breasts?
Or the fact that people cared enough if they were real?

[Redstone]

45. One answer at a time:

My story about stumbling on the x-ray page and getting curious? No, nothing wrong with curiosity.

The fact that she took x-rays of her breasts? Yes, because of the following.

Or the fact that people cared enough if they were real? Bingo! THAT's the truly pathetic part.

Redstone

[MonkeyFunk]

64. LOL

Here's the first pic on that page:




He really should switch to compact fluorescents.

[Dr. Strange]

42. She really does doesn't she? Awesome smile!

I think to be cuter, though, she should be wearing a conch-shell bra.

You should be a photographer!

[Sugar Smack]

44. Thank you! I would love that.

She could also be holding up an award-winning string of crawdads and be even MORE attractive, but she'd have to be near a river and not the ocean.

[Dr. Strange]

47. A string of crawdads?

That sounds dangerous.

[Sugar Smack]

49. Dangerous, but good in a stew.

:D

[Fran Kubelik]

50. .

:rofl:

[Sugar Smack]

51. I always love to see a gal with an appetite and

a sense of humor! :pals: :yourock:

[TZ]

57. more dangerous...

Than clawed kitties and nude yoga? ( I HAD to ask you know);-)

[Dr. Strange]

60. I think the moral of the story is...

don't be getting nekkid around animals with claws or pincers.

It's just too risky!

[SallyMander]

55. The real question is,

how do you pronounce "crawdad"? :D

[Sugar Smack]

56. KRAAAAAW-diddy. Or CRAW-dad, or "poppa-craw"

It's all good south of the Mason-Dixon line if you're "yonder" near a creek.

:pals: :pals: :pals: :pals: :pals: :pals: (wheee! It's you!!)

[SallyMander]

58. Kraaaaw-diddy!

Awww, you just reminded me of my dear Grandaddy who was from Arkansas. :loveya:

He also enunciated syllables in a fantastic way... UM-brella and IN-surance :D


Hugs for you, gorgeous! :hug: :hug: :hug:

[Sugar Smack]

61. LAWS, yes!

I'm done reading The Stand and Dolores Claiborne AGAIN (one day, that Stephen King is magic to behold). And I'm toying with accents again! Bar-BEE-cue and another favorite malapropism, "Throw papa down the stairs his hat". :rofl:

You're the freaking best. :loveya:

[SallyMander]

62. Poor papa!

Once he rights himself, he's going to send the grammar police after you! :rofl:


Seriously, i totally adore you :loveya:

[Fire Walk With Me]

9. If she's thinking about any of the high concepts, then yes.

[DarkTirade]

10. That's kind of a silly question to ask.

Different people find different things attractive.

Although in this case, I voted yes. :P

[laconicsax]

11. Remember, the mods know how you voted.

[Fire Walk With Me]

14. And shouldn't her eyes be on the same line as the horizon?

[Sugar Smack]

15. You want too much.

:rofl:

[Fire Walk With Me]

21. Oh my yes.

Have you read Kafka's "Der Hungerkunstler"?

[Sugar Smack]

24. No, I did read Kafka's Penal Colony, though.

:D OMG, I am out Hypno-Toading Hypno Toad.

[Fire Walk With Me]

37. Nice!

Entirely unrelated to the point I wish to make, but nice! :)

[RetroLounge]

16. Uhm, yeah...

I'll be in my bunk.

RL

[rug]

18. I need more data.

[Redstone]

20. "This?" Did you mean "Is SHE attractive?"

If you know what I mean, and I think you might.

Redstone

[Fran Kubelik]

23. I meant is this picture attractive.

But I get what you mean. :pals:

[Sugar Smack]

27. When are you going to tell us your side of the dispute?

:bounce: :loveya:

[Fran Kubelik]

29. I think she's got

...a lot more going on than a generic pin-up type. Very engaged, not vacant. You and I are on the same wavelength. :)
See my other response to you upthread - that's how I came across the picture initially.

[Sugar Smack]

31. I KNEW it!!!!

:D She's the classic nude beauty, not afraid, and with a piercing look that draws people to her eyes!

[Redstone]

28. You mean as photographic technique? No. Shot from too close, and with a lens that

is too wide-angle.

Redstone

[Fran Kubelik]

30. See, now that's a response I can respect.

:D

[Guava Jelly]

25. She has Nice BIG Eyes

:hide:

[Madrone]

34. If you like 10 year olds w/ ginormous ta-tas ...

...then, yeah. Because THAT's what I see when I look at that photo.

I don't tend to find 10 year olds attractive, but that's me. :shrug:

[Ptah]

52. .

What you said.

:thumbsup:

[Madrone]

59. Whew.

I am SO glad it's not just me. I didn't read any responses until after I'd posted ... and after doing so I was :scared: I'd bring a flame war upon myself.

[FloridaJudy]

35. She looks very sweet and appealing

She doesn't have that "hardness" I sometimes see in professional pin-ups: Hugh Hefner's "girls" all look like they've been coated in shellac.

If I were her mother, though, I'd be tempted to throw a burka over her!

[GoneOffShore]

38. I know what I want for Christmas

But Mrs GoS might not agree - or she might, as long as I share.

[DS1]

39. A brunette version would be attractive, yes

[BulletproofLandshark]

43. God, yes!

[TreasonousBastard]

46. Yes! Next question?

[SallyMander]

48. She has pretty eyes

and she looks comfortable in her skin. So that's always attractive. :D

[IzaSparrow]

63. exactly the type of girl I would have gone for in Junior High...

that girl is thirteen years old!!



(On second glance, I think "she" potentially is in favor of conceal and carry)

[uppityperson]

65. Out of focus, shot from poor angle, looks like augmentation. Naw.

[LSdemocrat]

66. I like the beach

In terms of the woman, something just doesn't seem quite right about her.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

67. Yes, that's a good picture of Hillary and Barack

Both of them look very good in it

[harmonicon]

68. a tentative 'yes', though I have to ask a few questions for calibration:

do bears shit in the woods?

do birds have wings?

Is Jeb Bush all in Lee L. Mercer Jr.'s house with disease?

[krispos42]

69. Long straight hair...

Attractive face, good skin, confident in herself and her sexuality, vivid eyes, lush bosom.

Krispos approves! :thumbsup:

And judging by these pictures, Miss Georgina Verbaan here has a natural bosom and great nipples, which totally rocks. Her ankle tattoo is a little odd, though.

Ah, make her a coppertop and I'd become a drooling idiot...

[FloridaJudy]

70. Ooooo! She's smoking a cigarette!

Now you've done it! Duck and cover!

[krispos42]

76. She's Dutch, so I'm sure it was pot

She was rebelling against Big Pharma and their legions of expensive, patented, and inferior "magic pills" with organic, natural hemp she grew herself.


(whew, dodged that one, eh?)

[chknltl]

72. meh...

six of one half dozen of the other.

If you seek my thoughts on the photograph:
Pretty young lass, interesting pose in a nice setting. Disturbing angle to the photo, perhaps a longer lens would have helped with that. A little bit of bounced or snooted flash back into the eyes may have been helpful because they appear a bit dark, imo. I love the wind in the hair. Overall a 5 out of 10 for me if this is a artsy-model photograph, and a 5 out of 10 if it is meant to be some sort of soft porn. Very pretty young lass though, nice tan too. Oh to be so young again.

If you want to know if the young lady is attractive: sure, she is quite pretty.

If you are wondering if this lass walking along the beach with her top off is attractive:
Well I suppose that depends on which beech and who else is there for the parade... put her on a beech full of perverted ol'farts like myself then NO that is not attractive at all. Put her on a pleasant private beech with her peers or even on some beech where nudity is acceptable, then yes it is attractive.

Is this a sexist photo?:
I am tired of flame-wars in the lounge on that topic...so I'll keep my thoughts to myself.

c

[Redstone]

77. You comments about the photgraphy are 100% correct. Also, the use of a lens

that's a bit too wide-angle does make her hands look unnaturally large, doesn't it?

And a ringlight would have helped a lot with the eyes.

Redstone

[chknltl]

78. Bingo (and thanks)

Yes, the hands WERE bothering me and I could not see why... you are right though. Had this lens been used for a head-shot face on, she would have had a bulbous nose. Maybe the photographer was trying for slightly larger looking breasts. (That is the obvious quick focus point for many viewers...so perhaps this was intentional)

I felt there was an awkward feel to the shot. When I looked to see what caused that feeling I noticed that her legs looked wrong... We Americans have been pre-programed to see lovely lithesome lasses with loooong legs. In this photo, it was the shortened, fading away legs which caught my attention. That was where the "awkward" of this photo came from. It is what prompted me to suggest a longer lens and a reposition of the camera a bit further back. The same framing from the new position with the new longer lens would have fixed that problem AND treated that hand problem you spotted more favorably.

I was an avid amateur shutterbug... I even had a chance to work with a bevy of lasses such as this over the years...it was always more work than fun though so I switched to live band photography.

73. who gives a crap

Obama and Clinton need some lovin

[Deep13]
