[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one calls Kate Middleton a classic beauty, at least no one with eyes. I think of timeless faces like Ava Gardner or Grace Kelly. Today I would say Angelina Jolie. Assuming of course that most people who use this term think exclusively of white women as classic beauties. I would put Iman or Rita Hayworth in this category as well and among modern women, Aishwarya Rai.[/quote]

Angelina Jolie looks like a porn star, not a classic beauty. [/quote]

She’s skinny as hell which isn’t classically beautiful.

You are wrong to think that no one of another race is a ‘classic beauty’ .

Serena Williams. Queen Rania of Jordan.  Michelle Kwan. Vanessa Williams. The list is endless.
You are prejudiced.[/quote]

You misunderstand me. I said that Rita Hayworth, Iman and Aishwarya Rai are classic beauties but the assumption on DCUM tends to be that only white women can be called that. In fact, the premise of the thread is about a basic white woman, Kate Middleton being called a classic beauty, which is preposterous because she is basic, but not because she is white. OP seemed to imply that whiteness was part of it.[/quote]
