Which Island has the most beautiful women?
 
Puerto Rico aside,which Island has the most NATURALLY beautiful women? I like diversity and have seen that women of the Caribbean have been making strides in international beauty pagents and finally being recognised for their beauty. I would like to know what Islands have a reputation for having the most beautiful women in the world and universe?<BR><BR>Please,share your opinion.

Not Aruba, that's for damn sure!

So I've heard Jul 19th, 2002 08:57 AM

My male friends tell me Trinidad, something about the afro/euro/indian mix.<BR>

ramjet Jul 19th, 2002 09:33 AM

Duh, thats easy, Manhattan!

Guido Jul 19th, 2002 09:33 AM

Staten Island, something about that BIG Hair

Nancy Jul 19th, 2002 10:52 AM

I also agree it's Trinidad.<BR>The cultural mix there makes for tall, willowy beautiful women AND men.<BR>

Apprectates Beauty Jul 19th, 2002 10:52 AM

Sorry guys,<BR>but to qualify you must have "summer" all year round, be bordered by the Caribbean Sea and part of the Greater or Lesser Antillies.

clarify Jul 19th, 2002 12:20 PM

With all the.......let's say special interest groups, diversity no longer necessarily refers to cultural or racial. So we need to know, what's your gender, and which side do you swing from?

Island Girl Jul 19th, 2002 12:34 PM

How could we possibly answer that for you??? Your opinion on beauty is your own. I would say there are beautiful women on EVERY island. <BR><BR>Beauty is not a race or nationality.

ben Jul 19th, 2002 01:12 PM

Now come on island girl.<BR>No one would deny that Alaska, on average, has far fewer attractive women than, say, Southern California.<BR>Generalizations, yes.<BR>But there are certainly trends out there.<BR>German women tend to have different coloring and build that doesn't appeal to me as much as Dutch women.<BR>And Japan is great for guys who like petite women.<BR>Can't say I've scanned the locals in the caribbean enough to know the differences there though.

Valerie Jul 19th, 2002 01:26 PM

The islands are full of beautiful people, period. But to go out on a limb here and answer your question, I'd have to say, without a doubt, Dominica - not to be confused with the Dominican Republic - just Dominica

Stephanie P. Jul 19th, 2002 02:13 PM

I'd say anywhere where it is easy to get a tan and look really healthy looking because of it would make someone attractive.

Nancy Jul 19th, 2002 02:44 PM

Hi Valerie,<BR>Interesting you would say Dominica. It is one of the few islands I have not been too, but I sponsor a CCF child there. He has sent me pics and he is extremely handsome. I was not aware that was common on that island. Hmm.

Apprectates Beauty Jul 19th, 2002 03:00 PM

to Clarify:<BR>I am male and hetrosexual....satisfied your curiosity?

Ronnie Jul 19th, 2002 03:41 PM

I have to agree with Trinidad! Since my first visit, I have always contended that they have the most beautiful women in the world! Two Miss Universes to their credit!<BR>Ronnie

Syndy Jul 19th, 2002 04:07 PM

Trinidad also has one Ms.World,Giselle La Ronde West, one Ms.World second princess, Michelle Khan and several women who have made it into the top 10 and top 5 such as Althea Rocke,Rachel Ann Telemaque,Margot Burgeuoise,Arlene Peterkin Allario in additoon to the first and second black Ms.Universe in Janelle Penny Commissiong Chow and Wendy Fitzwillamns.<BR><BR>

Ronnie Jul 19th, 2002 05:02 PM

There you go! The proof is in the puddin'!<BR>Ronnie

Anon Jul 19th, 2002 06:57 PM

St. Bart's hands down (and extremely handsome men as well).

Shaun Jul 19th, 2002 08:50 PM

Puerto Rico gets our vote!

mel Jul 19th, 2002 09:22 PM

Puerto Rico gets my vote for the most women with the largest derrieres in the Caribbean. There are women there who look normal at first, not fat or anything, and then you see their behind, and it is HUGE! They literally have to have special tailoring. I have never seen anything like it anywhere else in the world. I felt really bad the first time I saw one like that I broke into uncontrollable laughter. The other thing about women from PR is they can be extremely attractive when young, but then they become hideous by the time they get past 40 or so (just look at their mothers, you would never believe the daughter came from the mother). The Tainas can be very attractive.

Charles Ross Jul 19th, 2002 10:15 PM

Mel, I would have to disagree with you. I think you are referring to the Italian girls who are pretty when young, but then grow moustaches and gain 75 pounds after you marry them. I married a Puerto Rican lady almost 25 years ago, and she is still gorgeous today. And, her sisters are very attractive as well, and they are in their 40's and early 50's. Several intelligent & beautiful young Puerto Rican ladies have won the Miss Universe Pageant. And, they also have a heart of gold.

mel Jul 19th, 2002 11:50 PM

Charles, I stand by what I said. I've spent a lot of time in PR on business. The phenomena I describe is from years of observation. Did I say ALL of them are like that? NO. And I've lived in Rome Italy, but Puertorriquenas have even heavier moustaches. Most of them have to go to great extremes to remove them, otherwise they would be walking around with handlebars. I've never seen humongous rear ends on young women like I have in PR. No argument that many Puertorriquenas have hearts of gold, especially the Tainas.

During peak season, the imported 'eye candy' on St. Barts is incomparable.

Valerie Jul 20th, 2002 03:16 AM

Hi Nancy<BR><BR>Indeed, I suppose because Dominica is not as well known as some of the more "touristy" islands such as Barbados or Jamaica with the white sandy beaches and crystal clear water, people are not as aware of the natural beauty of the place and its people - but it is true - as you can attest to from the photos of your CCF child. You really should think about visiting one of these days - if you are into nature, waterfalls, swimming in rivers, hiking, eating lots of fresh foods and seeing lots of "eye candy" then you'd have a good time.

Apprectates Beauty Jul 20th, 2002 04:29 AM

To Mel and Charles:<BR>At the beginning of my post I said "Puerto Rico aside,which Island has the most NATURALLY beautiful women?"<BR>We are quite aware that Puerto Rico has some beautiful women..natural or not, but I was referring to other Islands in the Caribbean where you find natural women. <BR><BR>I am sorry to bring this up, but Latin women are notorious for "enhancing" their beauty by way of plastic surgery.Brazil,Venezuela,Colombia,PuertoRico to name a few. All these women are naturally beautiful and I really don't see the need for it, but they are a culture obssed with beauty and beauty pagents.

Butta Jun 19th, 2003 05:47 AM

TRINIDAD!

Canuck_at_Canada_eh Jun 19th, 2003 07:01 AM


CUBA!!!
There is the classic Latina beauty as a result of the strong Spanish influence.

NorthSideSue Jun 19th, 2003 04:32 PM

Another voice heard from. My vote goes to Cayman. Can't beat that mix of Scotch/English/Caribbean.

Keena_Bernard Sep 20th, 2010 07:33 AM

A group of Caribbean friends and I were discussing that. I have been to most islands in the Caribbean ext. Montserrat and St. Kitts and it is a fact that Dominica has the most beautiful women. It's not because I am from there but from what I have seen. Trinidadians are cute but Dominica has many natural beauties- dnt need to makeup to be a cutie- the gyals them are queenz.

Mango7 Sep 20th, 2010 08:25 AM

Horny, OP?

suze Sep 20th, 2010 08:49 AM

This thread is *8* years old.

yanumpty Sep 21st, 2010 11:25 AM

How did keena trawl this one up?

....and how mnay more gems are there in the depths of the Caribbean forum.

The last one that was trawled up in the nets was about the best island for "swingers".

Life seemed a lot more fun around here 10 years ago.

Omari_Newton Sep 3rd, 2011 12:29 PM
