I'm confused. Where in this did I say glamour model? I didn't, I only said model. :lol:

Sorry Stalk - INFP.

Yes Boo - very shy when she arrived here at 16. It got worse at school because of the racism. The white girls wouldn't accept her for her skin color etc and the Maori and Somoan girls wouldn't accept her for the eye color and culture difference. She basically got racism non stop from both sides. It turned an already very shy girl who was unsure if herself into a social recluse when she would never would have been that way otherwise.

Well, I will disagree with you for now, but I can't provide evidence as to why I think ENFPs comes of as shy (bunch of other stuff included related to that) even though they are extroverts and tend to go for journalism jobs. I shall come back to this later.

I could be wrong, I often overlook details.

Because the default model in people's minds is the catwalk model, and I agree with other men that a lot of them don't often look attractive (too skinny - but not necessarily are all like this).
Lingerie/glamour models are more meaty.

This is one example of Indios.

I'm just very suspicious of what is going on her forehead.

In answer to the original question, to be honest it would set off an alarm bell in my head. I would wonder where the last guy was buried.

The Indio Girl is stunning.

Ok stalk, just for you I will email her that test.
Are you happy now? Shall we take bets in the meantime?

And she majored in photo journalism, if that changes anything.

I was exaggerating about the 'buried' part, but not the warning bell going off part. Its hard to explain in logical terms, for it has more to do with the things you pick up in the jungle to survive so-to-speak. So let me use a jungle analogy.

You come accross a new plant with delicious looking fruit, but what is weird is there aren't any others feeding on them and all the fruit grows undisturbed. And thats unusual in this jungle.

Maybe you just are lucky, or maybe there are dozens of carcasses lying around in the undergrowth, victims of poisoning. You don't last long in the jungle unless you are always a little on guard and listen to your instincts.

Indeed, gorgeous girls there would incite those very same fears.

Like an Upas tree? I'm sure there are also male versions.

Really? Why?
Because those of us who actually use our real brains realize that women are far more complex. By far, most men tend to be very direct, but women often phrase things like questions, and then get ticked when we don't give them an answer they like. Here's a classic example...

"Honey, would you like to take out the trash?"

What sense does this make? No one actually enjoys taking out the trash, any more than cleaning the toilet or vacuuming the floor. Throw in the passive-aggressive tone many women usually have with such a question, and the average man knows he's already screwed (not in the good way). If you want a man to do something for you, ask him straight out. If he's paying attention and still says no, drop it.

Here's a secret, ladies... we don't like being manipulated any more than you do.


For crying out loud, it's not manipulation. They do it because it's rude to just order another adult to do stuff.


Odering people to do stuff is not the only other option.
They could simply ask.

"Honey, would you please take out the trash?"

See how changing the words 'like to' to 'please' changes the entire meaning of that?
In the original, they're asking a rhetorical question they know the answer to is no in order to passive-aggressively tell someone to do something for them, instead of simply and politely asking them to do it.
Essentially, they're issuing an order without being direct about it.
However, the effect is the same as saying, "Honey, take out the trash now."
That's rude, and it's even more rude because they're doing it in a backhanded, passive-aggressive manner so they can tell themselves it wasn't actually an order.

It's polite to ask, it's simple to ask, and it's the right thing to do.

What's so f***ing hard about saying 'please'?

I have no idea why my earlier post did not have my reply to the poison tree comparison.
That a nice looking single woman on a dating sight was labeling compared to an Upas tree, but that I'm sure there are also male varieties.

Because I have no idea, the ladies should reply to that.

And I can't help it but to suspect something seriously wrong in their personalities/lives lol.

I think their sexual orientation is perhaps not ordinary or they don't get out much because of their busy lives.
