Came upon this unusual article about "ideal beauty"...curiously, it pegs Richard Gere and Winona as the ideals for their respective genders...
"Autumn in New York" should have been a megahit under that thinking...
Anyway, some interesting thoughts...the hip-to-waist ratio has been around forever...what guy does not go for a thin waist and a big butt?   A Sir Mix-a-lot special...
WR certainly has a good ratio..nice curves...

I certainly find her beautiful, but it's definitely not universal - or she'd be on the top of the various beauty lists. Not all guys go for her look.

As I like to put it: If a woman asks me "Do you think Winona is more beautiful than me?" - well now I can only tell the truth - which would end the relationship - or a lie... Cheers

AINY was quite succesful and would've been better if MGM would've done better advertising - it made over 40 million in the US allone as far as I know...

Yup, thin waist, big butt, sounds good to me...


The funny thing for me is that, men aren't judged so much by their looks as much as their dependability and honesty. Men seem to place much more emphasis on the attractiveness of a woman. Almost all of the article is taken up by how women should look like and until the very end it is said that "the ideal man resembles Richard Gere" and that's it. Funny thing is, in Autumn in New York, Winona and Gere had no chemistry whatsoever.

And as for the line, "...the ideal woman resembles Winona Ryder." they are mistaken. The line should be, "...the ideal woman is Winona Ryder."

That's funny you pointed that out... it's definitely a trend in our society. I know I'd personally love to look like her, although I'd rather not care either way.

I didn't think Gere and Winona's chemistry was anything special, but it might just be because I don't like him all that much as an actor. And he completely ruins one of their "passionate" kissing scenes when he sticks out his tongue in the middle of it (and I don't mean in a sexy way, either) wacko. It just made it seem as if he couldn't keep up with her skills happy no lol

And I would have to agree with your last quote! While I think Winona is one of most gorgeous women in film, I also think her personality and interests say so much about her that look-a-likes are really just... look-a-likes, and can't compare to the real Winona. She is one of a kind!

I'd like to see the "ideal" composition they ended up in that study.
