Models

This is an Australian Model whom I have featured before on this blog.  I'm not sure what it is about this woman that is beginning to make me change my mind about models.

The big problem with models (and with most of us, including me) is that our vision dominates our sensory input, at least most of the time.  (At certain times, I hear that smell creates a stronger impression than vision, but that happens rarely.)  Models are obsessed with visual perfection, and with apparel.  Many interviews of models bring out their fascination with clothes, and with bodies.  I don't want to assert that their interests stop there; many models, or former models, once they give up modeling and begin to take an interest in matters that have to do with other things than physical beauty and clothing, become interesting, even fascinating.  No longer willing to rely on their physical beauty, they become beautiful, even more beautiful than before, as they become less 2-dimensional.  They may take the view that they were always this interesting and this beautiful, but I would go out on a limb and claim that in their working years, their beauty is limited to the beauty of a photograph.

When I see a photograph of this woman, however, I just turn into an adoring puddle of mush.  This is not the sort of woman I usually go for.  I like girls who are strong and athletic.  I'm rarely attracted to girls who are well-endowed, generally (though there are exceptions).  I don't go for very narrow waists.  I admire clear skin.  What is going on here?

I don't know!  I don't like all the clothes she models, either, though they do suit her.  I guess I'll get over this lady eventually, but until then, I enjoy seeing her anywhere.
