Do you think women are more attractive now or in the past?

Much better now and I am a boomer. Women are more fit, have better hair, makeup, clothes and confidence.

It is the DC area. The women in the DC area are not particularly attractive. I'm not sure why. But go down south and you'll see a lot better looking women

True. A whole lot of plain in this town.

I'd say the exact opposite.

People in DC, as well as other major professional cities, look more put-together, classy, and less overweight than in the rural South.

For example, within my group of friends I'd think I was about average. At the lower end of the BMI scale but I'm young and haven't had kids. I wear a size 2-4 and would say most of my friends would wear the same size, give or take a few inches in height. It absolutely floors me that the average weight of an American woman is 170 lbs. I look around me and think how is that possible that so many American women weight that much, and that 49.9% weigh significantly more, to offset people like my 115-135 lb colleagues?

Then I look at people in other places. Last time it really hit me was when I took a connecting flight in Houston last year. Holy moly. Everyone was a whale.

I was talking about southern cities. Like Austin, Atlanta, Miami. The women in these cities run circles around DC women. I’m not talking about how “put together” they look. No man cares about it. We care about body and face, and DC women body and face below average for major US cities

Houston is a huge city...statistically women who live in the south are heavier than women who live in the NE. It’s just a fact. I’m not disagreeing with you that there are more attractive people people in say Miami than in DC as a lot of models live there and it’s a party city whereas DC is more for serious types but people in the south are also on average fatter than people in DC.

All of the working out in the world doesn’t seem to cure the plain faces many DC women have, but I guess it helps someone have a better composite appearance.

But older women are uglier: botox, fillers, etc all make you look like a freak show.

Doesn't it rank second to Denver in fitness and low obesity rates?

At least in this study it ranks in the top 10

Botoxed face, fillers everywhere, stenciled eyebrows, contouring make-up, eyelash extensions, refined nose tips, tan.

Same damn look on every face in Hollywood and becoming increasingly the same damn look on every middle class to wealthy woman.

I'm 36 and UMC and very few women I know who are my age do any of these. Eyebrow waxing, hair dye when you go gray, and pedicures are normal. But I rarely even wear makeup and that's not uncommon.

See above comment on the plainness of DC women. You are one.

Many Southern women make the most of their looks. They make the effort to stay slim, wear make-up, buy stylish clothes that flatter their figure. Obesity is certainly a big problem in the South, but middle and upper class Southern women know how to maximize their looks and do it well into their 60s & 70s.

Compare that to the comrades in the People's Republic of Arlington where women let their hair go grey, give up on actual hairstyles, dress in baggy REI clothes, no make-up. It's not just the women. Men wear baggy cargo khaki shorts like it's their weekend uniform and flip flops on their nasty feet all summer. Terrible haircuts paired with big bellies and double chins. Even if they're fit, they aren't doing much with it to remain attractive.
