Do girls like those bikini clad stunners in our  magazines really exist or are they freaks of nature?

I'm a swimwear designer and retailer and we do photoshoots several times a year.  I can tell you that those girls are real and very beautiful, (not to mention very nice people.)  However, that being said, the models do go through exhausting hair and make up sessions, the lights and camera angles are set just so, the models know just how to pose to get the right reaction from the viewer, and finally, every single photo has had some sort of touch up done, ranging from covering blemishes to taking in a waistline and puffing up a bossom.   It's an art form...the art of selling the product.  \n\n~Cindy

hm...well,i don't.but maybe guys these days like to show off their girls so that he will look cool among his friends, sorta like a trophy or something.in this case,beauty does not lie in the eye of the beholder,but in the eye of the beauty magazines!my second ex is the Barbie type,when we're on a date, it's like, she's spending time with her mirror than with me most of the time.and i don't enjoy myself coz the way guys look at her makes me feel uncomfortable.it only lasted for 2 weeks...2 weeks of hypocracy.i'd rather look for someone genuine and normal.

Think about it this way : It is the same for you as it is for a boobless female in her 20s. All bodies are different. The big problem is that magazines create flawless photographs with air-brushing and other photohraphic techniques. Your fear is normal. Most people have it. Good luck........and btw, most females care more about your brain than your body.

trust me , all these preppy girls arent going to get any better, think about it, there is a motive behind their skankiness , those girls think that being slutty attract boys, little do they know, that men actually prefer a more smart sophisticated women, not one who will prowl aounr like prostitute, so shrtbrunette i agree with u !!!!!

Yes there are LOADS of excellent women out there ...unfortunately most men I encounter are only interested in the superficial or a quick piece of tail so we are passed over for the Barbies out there.

Look around you. The world is fixated on beauty and "average" looking girls don't stand a chance, even if they are beautiful, it is hard to believe it when guys are drooling over the "hotties" on television right in front of them. And we wonder why there are so many eating disorders out there. Girls need to remember that half the women on television have either had plastic surgery of have so much makeup on that their skin just appears flawless. If most guys weren't so hell bent on beauty and skininess, most girls would be alot happier. If a guy does not like you for who you are, get rid of them, they are not worth it and just say goodbye and wish them luck on finding their ideal "beauty" who is as beautiful on the inside as on the outside, it is rare!

you are wrong. though it might be right that i don't have a mainstream taste, i hate barbie type girls, and I find bigger girls far more attractive. So, you need to give people a chance. people vary. mainstream doesn't, but don't let it bother you.

me and my bf argued over FHM last night too! lol we must be twins.\n\nmens mags contain alot of ass and boobys, thats its purpose so men can gawp at them! womens magazines however give beauty advice, hair styling tips, sex tips. When was the last time you saw 21 pages in a row of naked men to stare at in cosmo?? lol \nYour right, your boyfriend is wrong. end of. hope that helped

I can't really say that I find them attractive, even in small doses.  But I respect a person's personal choice in this area.\n\nIf they are offensive (i.e. "Eat Sh*t"), they shouldn't be publically displayed, but if they're not ... who cares ?  Put it this way, I wouldn't want someone walking down the street with an "Eat Sh*t" shirt on either !\n\nI particularlly DON'T like the 'California Tags' that girls put above their rear ends.  It's cute and sexy and all, but at the same time, it's way over done and some of these gals just look stupid with them.  Sort of like a fat chick wearing low-riders ... yuk.

They are drawn to this type of women by their external appearance and maybe because they have been influenced by the media or the movies. That have lead them to think that a woman like that is hot or is able to fulfill his fantasies.\nBut hey, if you are a happy medium between conservative and unconservative like I am (although more conservative than not most of the time), don't worry. Men will like you not only because you can look good, but because you have a lot more things to offer other than just "looks." What is going to make a guy attached to you is what's on the inside finally.

Well my fiance and I both love Maxim, even though it is geared towards men. We do not like any of the womens magazines, I am not trying knock anyone, they just aren't my cup a tea.\n\nOther ones would be Time Magazine, Reader's Digest, Newsweek, People, Us, etc.

Low self-esteem.  Many girls are heavily influenced by what they see in the media.  What girls see is misleading.  It really is too bad.  Everyone is beautiful in their own unique way.  We all can't look like supermodels so let's not try to strive for it unrealistically.
