Seed Magazine: Beauty is in the Processing-Time of the Beholder
"A paper published in the September issue of the journal Psychological
Science proposes a new explanation for this phenomenon: Prototypical
faces are pleasing because they're easy for the brain to process."

Why I Hate Beauty
"Poets rave about beauty. Brave men have started wars over beauty.
Women the world over strive for it scholars devote their lives to deconstructing
our impulse to obtain it. Ordinary mortals erect temples to beauty. In just
about every way imaginable, the world honors physical beauty. But I hate
beauty." |

JOCELYN NOVECK, AP: What drew us to Anna Nicole
"She was clearly very high on something, and you wondered if she would
survive, literally.
It was hard to watch. And, of course, harder not to.
Scant hours after news emerged of her death Thursday at age 39, many
people were hard pressed to describe what exactly Anna Nicole Smith was.
Actress? Model? Reality star? Rich widow? "I don't know exactly what she
did," said talk show host Joy Behar, hearing the news over the phone. And
yet, trying to put her finger on why we watched this strange woman over
the years, she came up with two things: Dysfunction. And beauty."

Washington Post: Pearls Before Breakfast
"She doesn't know much about classical music, but she had been in the audience
three weeks earlier, at Bell's free concert at the Library of Congress. And here
he was, the international virtuoso, sawing away, begging for money. She had
no idea what the heck was going on, but whatever it was, she wasn't about to
miss it." |

To the potential sex workers who write me: The Price
"It can be empowering to get something back on the body that has for so long
been used and abused and objectified. And the money is good. But there’s
another side to this deal that I’m afraid I haven’t shown you.
It’s not easy to write about prostitution in a totally honest way because it is
painful." |

everything done with amazing make-up and lighting. I wonder how they

nytimes.com - A Little Too Ready for Her Close-Up?
"Television executives at Fox Broadcasting, for example, say they have
begun recruiting more natural looking actors from Australia and Britain
because the amply endowed, freakishly young-looking crowd that shows
up for auditions in Los Angeles suffers from too much sameness." |

"I am my own avatar. I create how I want to look by exercising and getting
all my girly facials and massages, and I meet who I want to meet, and I do
whatever I want. I already lead a life many people are trying to live in their
“second life.” Everything I would want to do in a second life, I can do in my
real life, and that's what makes me happy to be me." |

okcupid.com - Your Looks and Your Inbox
"As you can see from the gray line, women rate an incredible 80% of guys
as worse-looking than medium. Very harsh. On the other hand, when it
comes to actual messaging, women shift their expectations only just slightly
ahead of the curve, which is a healthier pattern than guys’ pursuing the all-
but-unattainable. But with the basic ratings so out-of-whack, the two curves
together suggest some strange possibilities for the female thought process,
the most salient of which is that the average-looking woman has convinced
herself that the vast majority of males aren’t good enough for her, but she
then goes right out and messages them anyway." |

pinterest.com - Parallel Legs
"Configuration known as "Parallel Legs". It is the position deemed most
attractive by the overwhelming majority of men (6 out of 7) for women
who are sitting. This pose is often taught in modeling classes. Men voted
Parallel-Legs as their number one favorite position in women who are
seated. How to sit with parallel legs crossed, as Rachel Weisz is doing.
A lot easier for tall gals, and very femme!" |

bbc - The surprising downsides of being drop dead gorgeous
"Interestingly, the online dating website OKCupid recently reported that
people with the most flawlessly beautiful profile pictures are less likely to
find dates than those with quirkier, less perfect pics – perhaps because the
prospective dates are less intimidated." |

ny post - How Mona Lisa's smile led to love affairs and suicides
"Leonardo's entire career had led him to this point - and this portrait.
Through years of advanced mathematical calculations, he had worked
out the perfect proportions for a human head. In experiments with optics,
he had observed a pupil's response to the play of light and shadow." |

99percentinvisible.org - Audrey Munson: Miss Manhattan
"All over New York City, there is a woman in various states of undress,
so baked into architecture that we barely even notice her. In the public
library, she leans against a white horse; at the intersection of 59th and
5th, she perches atop a fountain; on 107th and Broadway, she reclines
on a bed; and on top of the Manhattan Municipal Building she stands tall,
this time cast in gold. She has gone by many names: Star Maiden, Prie-
stess of Culture, Mourning Victory, and, simply: Niche Figure. But the
truth is, all these likenesses were based on a single person: a model by
the name of Audrey Munson."

Y - Jennifer Lawrence Shares 'Degrading and Humiliating' Hollywood Experiences
"And, during this time, a female producer had me do a nude lineup with about
five women who were much, much thinner than me. And we all stood side-by-
side with only paste-ons covering our privates. After that degrading and humi-
liating lineup, the female producer told me I should use the naked photos of
myself as inspiration for my diet." |
