Yes, I bet it does.
Damn, Hunter Tylo was beautiful before she wrecked herself! What was she thinking?!
From that link:
Arghhhhh!
Double arghhh after seeing the photo too.
I’ve visited Awful Plastic Surgery dot com for a couple of years now (it’s a guilty pleasure), and have never had a problem with it. Well, the only problem is that sometimes the site isn’t updated for a long time.
It’s a specific case of a common, built in human tendancy; exaggerating a characteristic that distinguishes a gender to look more attractive. Women have breasts, therefore boob jobs. Men have wide shoulders, therefore shoulder boards. Women have larger lips, therefore “bee stung” lips. Men have penises, therefore fake giant penises. Women have slender necks, therfore use rings to give them super-long slender necks. Men have big muscles, therefore bicep implants.
There is another tendancy involved as well, judging from the responses; the tendency both genders have to misjudge what the other finds attractive.
As my husband was channel flipping last night, Loni Anderson appeared on screen with her lips - it was horrifying! I can’t find a photo (OK, I didn’t do that extensive a search) but sheesh!!!
I wouldn’t have recognized her had I seen a picture of her without her name attached to it. I hadn’t seen a picture of her in probably 10 years and she looks like a completely different person.
I know that a lot of people think that Angelina Jolie’s lips are great. And they are perfectly fine. But I don’t find them sexy. They are not full enough. They seem a bit baggy. I have mentioned this to a friend of mine, and he insisted that I just don’t know what I’m talking about because I am ‘a girl’. He said any man can see her lips are perfect.
I don’t know about that. I like these lips much better.
I get creeped out by upper lips without the dent shape at the top. They look like upside-down bottom lips.
I’m still not buying the whole “lipstick is to make your lips look like your labia!” thing. Lips are red to start with, lipstick is an enhancement of what’s already there. Until somebody shows me actual information that the first people to use lipstick were specifically doing it TO LOOK LIKE THEIR CROTCH and not to make them look like flushed, enhanced and yeah possibly aroused FACIAL LIPS I just ain’t gonna believe it.
Not everyone’s lips are red. Some people’s lips are brown, some are pink, some are the same color as the rest of their face. Really red lips look pretty fake on most, if not all people. It’s not an enhancement, it’s changing the appearance of your face. I say that not as any sort of judgment on cosmetics, just as a factual note.
I don’t think anyone sat down and said, “Hmm, let me make women’s facial lips look like their vaginal lips!” More like, when women are aroused, their lips (in both places) flush and swell. Lipstick simulates that aroused look. Consequently, swollen facial lips probably unconsciously evoke thoughts of the other lips. It’s definitely ultimately about sex, which is for most people about their crotches. Not to put too fine a point on it.
I’m not sure if Scarlett Johanssen’s lips are 100% natural, but they are 100% perfect. Gina Gershon and Angelina Jolie have amazingly sexy big lips as well.
Well I didn’t mean clown-nose red. I meant redder than their skin, which I think is the case for most people. And moreso when they’re flushed. I’m not saying that flushed lips aren’t related to sexual thoughts, just that I don’t think it’s because they LOOK like a pussy. Because they don’t.
