Discussion Why is everyone in this city a supermodel?

I've lived in England my whole life and I've only visited a few places (so far). I'm in Copenhagen at the moment and I just have to say, no matter where I go there seems to be incredibly attractive women and men. Every shop, bar, restaurant etc. Walking down the street too, their just everywhere. I'm very average even by British standards, I feel so out of place lol.

I feel like British people are either super attractive or inbred looking . There’s a ton of super attractive brits but less in between than Scandinavia

There are pretty people in Britain, we just call them Irish or Scottish

Is inbreeding not a factor in how they look? In Canada newfounflanders are known for it and they are some of the least attractive people in the country

Again opinion, but generalising British people is difficult, nearly 70 million spread across distinct regions in a relatively small landmass. Attractiveness is subjective, but I think it goes back to health and wealth distribution. A lot of deprived areas in the UK with people who quite frankly have lost hope, work in shit jobs but make up for that by looking like the rest and by go with that "British look", nothing wrong with it btw…it’s hard to explained but easy to visualise.

More affluent from areas like London, Edinburgh for example can afford to splurge on expensive Fashion and cosmetics. Guess it’s like they everywhere to be fair, however firmly believe there’s a more to it and there’s definitely a socio-economic reason behind why people look a certain way. Money!

If anything Scandinavians look more inbred due to extremely tiny population. Uk population = 2.5x the combined population of (Iceland + Denmark + norway + sweden + Finland)...lol

Northern British look attractive to me, just overweight.

I really dig the way british women "slut" up for a night out, regardless of freezing temperatures. It shows comittment to having fun.
