    No I'm not being sarcastic!

    Came home from travelling about, and have been walking around with my eyes on sticks. Yes I did see good looking people while I was away, but not to the extent since returning home.

    I don't know if its because I grew up in Ireland and became conditioned to preferring Irish boys (blue eyes kill me) or that there are just amazing looking people here!
    There's been a few negative threads about Irish people's appearance, but sometimes its good to be reminded of the positives.


    Stick that in your pipe Samantha Brick!

    ahhh so its you who left the snail trail all over the country :pac:

    All the half decent looking Irish girls are stuck up biatches who need the approval of atleast 4 of there friends to talk to someone on a night out, whereas all the fat ugly birds are "sound".
    Thats why I love heading over to Scotland, Wales are England where you can talk to people without feeling judged on every action.

    ah now i have to disagree with this completely.. you cant make a generalization like that..
    I would approach a guy if I liked them and I would never seek the 'approval' of my friends.. tbh I do have some friends who are afraid of their backsides to go and talk to a fella, why I'll never understand but I think there is equally a problem with guys approaching girls...

    That's only a certain type of girl, to be fair - and not worth bothering with.

    Bitter? Yes, perhaps you're right. It's not your fault you look like you're sucking on a lemon all the time.

    I have a bath once a year whether I need it or not and I brush my tooth sometimes. I'll put the dog out of bed for any mare willing to share it. I'm glad to hear we lads are being appreciated at last.

    Blue eyes would be my preference but ultimately it doesn't really matter.

    It's the poles you're looking at.

    Hell no, Polish are totally over rated IMO. People usually see a hot Eastern European chick and think "Wow those Polish girls are fine" but in reality they are usually just pigeonholing some Slovak, Czech or Lithuanian girl. Okay for a nation of nearly 40m people Poland are going to have an abundance of hotties but Slovakia has a similar population to Ireland yet the amount of incredible beautiful women is staggering.

    Us Irish need to tap into the Slavic gene pool for future generations. I'm doing my part ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,128 ✭✭✭cynder


    Always had a thing for tall blonde Germans, so happens my husband is Irish but his great granny was German, his tall dark and very good looking.


    Our kids are said to be very good looking all 3 are blonde and look like me :) my bloodline in English and Italian however Ive been told I look more Scandinavian, I must have Viking or something from somewhere.


    The irish are now breeding with different nationalities and already have Norman, Viking and english bloodlines, chances are Irish will get better looking with new bloodlines coming into the country.

    very true Lars. personality is important!! I probably seem a bit superficial now starting a thread on people's looks! and perhaps quite stereotypical! sometimes its nice to pay a big group of people a whopper compliment. :pac:

    great username by the way. reminds me of the film Lars and the real girl.

    I do think Irish girls tend to be naturally attractive, i.e. when not painted orange, but dressed in their own lovely porcelain paleness!.

    Paleness FTW! :)

    I was showing some American students around recently. One of the lads commented that I was the first Irish girl he saw who didn't have an orange face. :o Fukin embarrassed for Irish ladies so I was. They were hanging around Grafton Street though so.. :cool:

    There are many beautiful Irish males and females, and there is also some uggas. Like everywhere!!

    You say this... whilst judging any decent-looking Irish woman as stuck up. Oh, the irony!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 685 ✭✭✭Carlos_Ray


    I've lived in a few countries and in my opinion Ireland has a good proportion of good-looking people. When I lived in New York, the Irish lads in my social group were always the most sought after by American women.

    I think everybody just likes something a bit "exotic." Ireland has a very high percentage of blue eyes with dark hair. This is an unusual feature on global level, hence its attractive to many people abroad. The vast majority of dark haired people in Europe have brown eyes. Personally I love dark hair and blue eyes, so I'm happy enough in Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,682 ✭✭✭✭Galwayguy35


    Where did you go travelling OP?



    British and Italian men are much better looking than Irish.

    So you like tatood baldy lads with 2 earrings on each ear then...

    Traveled to many parts of the globe and think Irish women are just as beautiful as the women of any other country, if not more so. I would place us very high on any list of nations for female beauty (towards the bottom half of the list though, were personality also taken into account). Why that is I have no clue but just seems that women of other countries seem far friendlier and less likely to have that air of entitlement about them that many Irish women seem to, but maybe that's just because when on holiday you notice the positive aspects of the people you meet more and the negatives ones less.

    We also have a lot of red heads, I've only ever met one good looking irish red headed male, he died of cancer before his 30th birthday :(.


    But he was fine...


    We also have a lot of farmers and I've never seen a cute farmer....

    My first real crush was on a farmer and he was no looker but he was soo funny.... It all comes down to personality and to be honest I think most of the Irish male/female have great personalities....

    Meh, plenty of attractive Irish men and women - looks and personality. I wouldn't see the point in going out of one's way to give examples of unattractive ones or to compare them constantly with other nationalities.

    Probably a good idea not to be going to up-one's-arse pubs too.

    I got off a plane in Bratislava (Slovakia) and as I walked through the airport I genuinely thought that there was some sort of modelling competition being held - I got through customs ( the Girl checking the passports looked like Claudia Schiffers better looking younger sister) and had to wait outside for my lift. As I quietly smoked a cigarette, my poor eyes were on swivels. Holy schit, there are an awful lot of seriously good looking Slovakian girls. Blokes all looked like either swamp trolls or poor mafioso bodybuilders, but jasus the women are fine.Here at home, there's a lot of very good looking Irish women going around as well but the lads have a touch of the Slovak about them.:)
