Many Japanese women are beautiful, and stay really good looking even through middle age. But I must remind you...women are women and it does not matter what part of the world they come from. I think you get my point.

I am developing the habit of hearing voices in my mind.

555Book, to be truly free you must listen to those voices and do whatever they say.

At a minimum, your life will become infinitely more interesting.

You'll see.

I wonder what selection criterion is. There are many contests over Miss ---. I can not always understand it when I see the result of contests. I think finalists of the contests are all beautiful and have good figure. What is conclusive factor with winner? If Riyo Mori who is Miss Universe in 2007 and Kurara Chibana who is 1st runner-up in 2006 competed in same contest, which would be selected as a Japanese representative? I saw pictures of Miss Universe Japan 2009 and thought every finalist had a chance to be Miss Universe Japan. But personally I like a lady at the right end on the picture because she has fair skin and good figure. Also green dress suits her. So I want her to be selected as Japanese representative.

J ladies look better in JT because of this male-bonding session we are having now. I must admit my perspective is heavily influenced by all the pretty J-pop idols to an extend I have this bias that J ladies are always better looking.

When they pic the Miss Universe 2009, after rigorous months of training with Ines. She'll be all plastic, no more natural. For proof see Ines' blog.

All very nice. But the slightly large one 4th from the right in the black dress, is she the chef in that venue ? Or maybe the winner of Miss Weightwatchers Universe, right ?

And the one 2nd from the right is about 42 years old.

So 555, I am under the impression that you might be attracted to the J ladies ?

I thkn kthe one in front is the cutest, but they are all beautiful, really.....
eresay at 12:58 AM JST - 12th December

These are obviously not finalists right? A poor representation of J women if I ever saw it. 2nd from the right is on the wrong side of 40 for sure.

Woo hoo the best skank plasticists! Is this really the best Japan can offer, I think not. Pretty from way far, but way far from pretty.
