what makes a woman beautiful her eye
color long lustrous hair freckles a
sweet smile thick thighs slim graceful
hands the age-old adage that beauty is
in the eye of the beholder is true and
perhaps stereotyping the women of a
particular country even if it is a
positive stereotype might be a tad
unfair but which countries do the most
beautiful women in the world come from
in this case we're strictly discussing
physical appearance not personality
first we have to acknowledge that beauty
is arbitrary and your interpretation of
what is beautiful is shaped by many
factors including your background in
culture your perception of beauty is
also distorted by your exposure to pop
culture which often holds up
unattainable standards of perfection
achieved via manipulation and which are
frequently European oriented it's simply
impossible to not have any personal bias
when it comes to aesthetic judgment also
there's no single test to judge the
beauty of women by country so we've
relied on stats surveys and contests to
aid in our decision there are four
international beauty pageants that are
considered the top beauty pageants in
the world miss earth Miss International
Miss Universe and Miss World
while each contest has various rules the
contestants are all young women
qualified to participate through winning
subdivision or national contests in
their own countries so all of the
contestants for these contests are
already considered among the most
beautiful women if not the most
beautiful woman from their home country
in more recent years beauty pageants
have fallen out of fashion with the
mainstream while each contest has always
sought to pick well-rounded winners of
good character who were just another
pretty face the big four contests have
now placed far more weight for judging
on intelligence knowledge graceful
manners and being cultured winners often
serve as goodwill ambassadors work with
charities and promote various causes
worldwide therefore they must be
prepared and able to excel at this type
of public role far and away the country
of Venezuela is top dog with 23 wins in
the big four beauty pageants the country
is won eight Miss International crowns 7
Miss Universe crowns 6 Miss World crowns
and - Miss Earth crowns the Philippines
is a distance
and with 13 wins 6 miss international
crowns for each miss earth and Miss
Universe crowns and 1 miss world crown
Brazil comes in third with six titles to
miss earth to Miss Universe and one each
for miss international and Miss World
and mitad Li contemplating beauty
pageant winners might not be the best
way to determine which country has the
most beautiful women not all of the
world's 195 countries participate in
beauty pageants also Venezuela is
incredibly victorious in its contestants
winning because beauty pageants are
deeply embedded into Venezuelan culture
it's actually quite common for
Venezuelan contestants to go to beauty
bootcamp where upon arrival advisors
note each contestants imperfections that
need to be corrected by plastic surgery
then the hopefuls often undergo extreme
makeovers spending upwards of six months
preparing full-time for pageants with an
army of staff to assist them that
includes dental and plastic surgeons as
well as hair stylists makeup artists
physical trainers deportment and speech
coaches and dance and walking
instructors is it fair to consider a
country to have the most beautiful women
in the world if much of that beauty is
purposefully constructed another way to
judge which countries have the most
beautiful women would be to consider
models in 2014 there was a survey taken
of lingerie company Victoria's Secret
models to see what country they hailed
from at that time there had been 295
Victoria's Secret models and they came
from 53 different countries the United
States produced the most Victoria's
Secret models with a count of 81 Brazil
was a distant second with 32
Australia was third with 14 the United
Kingdom produced 13 Victoria's Secret
models just ahead of the Netherlands and
France which both had a count of 12 on
and on in Germany Spain Argentina and
Poland each produced six Victoria's
Secret models 15 countries including
Namibia Portugal and Malaysia each
produced one Victoria's Secret model
these numbers could mean several things
that women in the US are the most
beautiful in the world or that in
America the barriers to modeling as a
viable career are much lower than in
some other countries also the u.s. is
the third most populous country in the
world that actually makes the quantity
of Victoria's Secret models per
population percentage very low in 2014
the U
said approximately a population of 318
million people with females making up
roughly fifty point five percent the
average age of retirement for a
Victoria's Secret model is twenty eight
most models begin their careers in the
mid to late teens even accounting for
age in 2014 the US had tens of millions
of females in the suitable range to be a
Victoria's Secret model in 2014
Namibia had 2.3 million people with
females making up fifty 1.4 percent of
the population Portugal had a population
of ten point four million with fifty two
point five percent females so by density
Portugal and Namibia actually produced
more Victoria's Secret models than the
US a similar domination of the fashion
and model industry by the u.s. was found
in data generated by the crew of a 2011
documentary on modeling the top five
models producing nations per capita were
five Latvia for Denmark three Lithuania
to Iceland and the top model producing
country per capita wasn't number one
Estonia yet to the top five model
producing nations overall were five the
Netherlands for the UK three Russia to
Brazil and the US was number one the
data also described the ideal model was
five foot eleven weighing 117 pounds
with dark blonde hair a fair complexion
and blue eyes however that's simply the
reigning opinion of one Western oriented
industry that slowly diversifying
several English language travel websites
have generated lists of countries with
the most attractive women from user
surveys while you can't put much stock
in each of these stats as these are
internet straw polls which in some cases
were easily manipulated with multiple
submissions of the questionnaire it's
interesting to see which countries show
up on multiple lists Russia Brazil and
Sweden frequently appear as well as the
Netherlands and Colombia science is
beginning to explore whether beauty is
entirely arbitrary or not of course
there are certain traits that
universally humans unconsciously find
attractive it's a no brainer that clear
skin bright eyes and strong white teeth
basically general indications of good
health and fertility are instinctively
valued by cultures worldwide however our
instinctive assessment and preference
for beauty
deeper than that though many researchers
dismiss it as pseudoscience others
believe that a mathematical equation
known as the golden ratio appears
repeatedly in beautiful things in nature
during the European Renaissance master
artists and architects used the golden
ratio to draft out their masterpieces in
more modern times some scientists have
studied this mathematical formula to
help to find the elusive standard of
what makes someone beautiful or not you
can assess your own face to see how
closely it adheres to the golden ratio
and other standards of proportion
measure the length and width of your
face then divide the length by the width
the ideal result as defined by the
golden ratio is about 1.6 - which means
a beautiful person's face is about one
and a half times longer than it is wide
a second test is to measure the three
segments of your face from the forehead
hairline to a spot between the eyes
from between the eyes to the bottom of
the nose and from the bottom of the nose
to the bottom of the chin the more equal
the numbers the more beautiful you are
finally measure the length of your ear
and the length of your nose also measure
the width of one of your eyes and the
distance between your eyes on a perfect
face the length of an ear is equal to
the length of the nose and the width of
an eye is equal to the distance between
the eyes other science experiments are
discovering that humans instinctively
assess more than just the face to
determine beauty in 2015 the University
of Texas at Austin published a
psychology study about beauty
attributing modern men's preferences for
women with badonkadonk
- evolution based on two surveys the
first survey investigated vertebral
wedging an underlying spinal feature
that influences the actual curve in the
woman's lower back a study of 100 men
were asked to rate the attractiveness of
several manipulated images displaying
female spinal curves raging across the
natural spectrum the result was that men
preferred images closest to a
theoretically optimal 45.5 degree curve
from back to buttocks this conceptual
ideal angle of lumbar curvature enables
pregnant women to balance their weight
over their hips thereby allowing
ancestral women to better support
provide for and carry out multiple
pregnancies the second survey queried
whether the men preferred the forty five
point five degree curvature because it
accentuates a larger buttocks or whether
the preference could be attributed
the angle in the spine itself
approximately 200 men were shown images
of women with differing but oxides and
vertebral wedging but maintaining a 45
point five degree curve interestingly
enough the men consistently preferred
women whose spinal curvature was closer
to ideal lumbar curve regardless of
posterior size this enabled the
researchers to show that men prefer
women who display specific angles of
spinal curvature over rump mass so which
country has the most beautiful women
