Olympics: Most attractive gold medalists

It’s sort of true, though. Also, as stereotyping and marginalizing go, I think that there’s an army of minorities out there who would probably maintain that what they face is worse than this stereotype on British women. It’s not that nasty.

Oh well, as long as it is true that’s fine then. As we know. Beauty is in no way subjective and so the truth of that stereotype is easy to verify.

Seriously people, did I misread the slogan on the banner for this site?

Nasty, unlike all of the other quaint, cute, nice stereotypes you’re used to!

Nope, just like the others. Stereotypes tend to be lazy and pernicious.

What does a “british” woman even look like? I couldn’t describe one. We are hardly a homogeneous bunch.

So setting aside the team sports, these are the “beauties” nominated so far:

Kerri Walsh
Jess Ennis
Allyson Felix
Victoria Pendleton

I blame the class system. Generations of tugging on our forelocks has obviously squished up our faces.

How about Ranomi Kromowidjojo? Her name is fun to say, too.

One that struck me as British looking in not a good way was gymnast Beth Tweddle. Not hideous but not particularly attractive.

But don’t say anything bad about my Amy Pond. Or does she get a pass because she is Scottish?

Is it weird I think she looks hot in a helmet?

Alex Morgan, USA woman’s soccer team. And that short haired blonde too.

Mia Hamm was hot in her time.

Second Allyson Felix.

For some reason, the female swimmers look super-attractive to me immediately after they have finished their race. If I see them in some other context, then not so much.

I’ll nominate Usain Bolt.

Yum. :slight_smile:

I’m a straight guy, and his was the first name that came to mind when I saw the OP. He’s a fine looking specimen of the human race.

Yes. Definitely. I just googled her and she gets the top spot on my totem pole!

ETA: I didn’t mean it in that way, ya perverts!

She is carrying the Dutch flag during the closing ceremony, in case you’re interested

Here’s a video of the party yesterday evening. It apparently isn’t that hard to get to cop a feel if you want to;).

I’ll nominate Jordan Burroughs, gold in freestyle wrestling. He may have the most perfect body I’ve ever seen.

I would like to see them without that god awful make up and nose plugs.

I’ll take Misty.

Agreed. It’s so hard to tell the cute ones from the ugly ones when they all wear that much crap.

Anna Chicherova

Too bad she let herself go after having the baby.
