Title: A good subject for debate ... faces on TV

Commercial TV operates as a profit-making business first and foremost.

'Bums-on-seats' in the nation's lounge rooms with people watching the commercials is what makes the industry survive.

The American experience has shown that whites on TV is the most successful formula for attracting the biggest audiences.

Lots of things make me change the channel on TV.

Skin colour isn't one of them.

This person makes me reach for the remote faster than anything else:



And she's as white as they come.

Do you have a link to that American research, Herbie?

I don't care what "colour" they are, so long as they can enunciate English so that you can understand what the hell they are talking about. So many "talking heads" mumble through their teeth.  I turned off the TV News years ago, at least the written news is legible (although Journos seem not to be able to spell these days). Just as well some of us are perfect.  ;)

There's plenty of that, that's for sure.

I also change the channel whenever I see this face:



Again, very white.

To be totally honest - I can sympathise with Australians who are not your stereotypical White Anglos, wondering why the commercials, and the news readers and reporters - and the players in all the TV shows are composed almost exclusively of white breads.

I think it simply comes down to ratings.

What I would NOT agree with is a government law that forces the TV production companies to start insert so many percentages of token Chinese, token Blacks, token Muslims-with-hijabs, Muslims-with-beards, Pacific Islanders, Indians, and the rest.

That would be Social Marxism to do that.

One of my all-time favourite shows had an all-Black cast - and damned if I can remember the name now.

If it's funny and entertaining - I'll watch it. Some of the very best Stand-up comedians are American Blacks, Iranians, and Indians.

It's all about value.

You may be onto something herb.  Scratch that, you ARE onto something.  Marketers and advertisers are no mugs - they've done their research and they know exactly what people like, even if they cannot overtly say so.  Their whole industry depends on having an accurate picture of peoples preferences, and in keeping that picture hidden from the marks public.  People are easy to manipulate, but they don't like to know they're being manipulated.

I'm not convinced that skin colour would make that many people turn off.

I thought that you had read some research on the subject, which is why I was asking.

Cosby was very, very popular in America.

Family Matters was too.

Hangin' With Mr Cooper.

Everybody Hates Chris.

Julia ( I used to love that one, when I was a kid).

Good Times.

Fresh Prince.

Lots of black faces there.

No itd be rare that it did, becausr its not thr point.

55 out of 100 people might prefer strawberry flavour to chocolate, that doesnt mean theyd turn down a chocolate ine if that was all that was on offer.  There might also be times when they feel like chocolate for a change.

  It might appear only a slight preference, but magnify it to the scale of a market of 100 million people, and that slight preference makes a big difference to the nottom line.

Well that's just about the most ridiculous academic paper i've ever read.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There is no possible way to measure it to fit some arbitrary scale. Clearly the person doing the study applied their own preferences to their data.

I can't believe you posted it in all seriousness.

having only seen the shorts to both 'Here come the Habibs' and 'The family Law', they both look like they are funny. If the shows live up to the shorts (they rarely do) I'll watch them, if they don't I won't. Skin colour has nothing to do with it.

I realise I'm becoming sickening, but I've seen some lovely young aborigine women during my years in Chippendale, Redfern and Waterloo here in Sydney. Angelic faces when they're not ruined by the demon drink.

Ugly AND more "other" than aboriginal.

All it means is that traits other than physical beauty were selected for by aborigines.  You could say that aborigines  are model feminists in this regard.

Aaand youre all still missing the point, which has been explucitly stated.  I guess you cant get your outrage fix otherwise.  Carry on with thr dog and pony show, but i know that you know the truth inside.

Results show that in each culture participants selected women with low WHR as attractive, regardless of increases or decreases in BMI


Quote:
The study, conducted by Harvard University researchers, found the face of an attractive woman triggers the same reward centres in a man's brain as the narcotic.


Test subjects were shown images of attractive females, and brain imaging scans revealed that reward circuitry fired off when they looked at comely faces.


A prominent curved forehead, eyes, nose and mouth located relatively low, large eyes, round cheeks and a small chin were among the features men found most attractive.

And other studies say it's about symmetry.

THe thing is, you can find a study to prove just about any point you want to make. You want to prove that white women are more attractive because you find them more attractive. That You are applying your own prejudice to the analysis of beauty. Some people lool quite average until they smile, for example.

Beauty is thoroughly subjective.

Lesbians select for different traits than men, but only the preferences of men have any carry over to the next generation. 

In short - it doesn't matter what women find attractive in women, because it has no evolutionary impact.

And ive seen white sprinters who are fast af. But isolated cases do not make a rule.  There are beautiful women in every race except aborigines, just as there are honkies that are good at sorinting, just not in the same proportions.



There are tons of beautiful Aboriginal women.

Once again, you are applying your own preferences. Racist preferences i might add.
Show some beautiful full blood aboriginal women. Im prepared to be convinced.




I've seen them. Do your own research.
You made the claim. Post or be called a liar. we can even put up  a poll.

Lesbians select for different traits than men, but only the preferences of men have any carry over to the next generation. 

In short - it doesn't matter what women find attractive in women, because it has no evolutionary impact.



Not all men think like you, thank god.


I'm afraid research says otherwise.  I understand your reluctance to accept that an objective, universal standard of beauty exists, but exist ir does and preserving your ego by buying into a delusion isn't healthy in the long run.

Personally I prefer strawberry over chocolate even though chocolate is the more popular flavour overall.  The trick is to not care what the herd is doing - again, I understand why you cannot do this.

No. There is no definable standard for beauty. It is quite true that somebody who is recognised as beautiful by a large number of people can be thought to be indeed, beautiful but there is no proven litmus test for why this is.

There are only theories.

And standards of beauty change. Marilyn Monroe wouldn't cut it tin today's Hollywood.

Standards of beauty are also cultural.

This is why i repeatedly refer to your preference. Your preference is based upon that of a prejudiced white male. It cannot be said to be a universal truism.

Ugly AND more "other" than aboriginal.

All it means is that traits other than physical beauty were selected for by aborigines.  You could say that aborigines  are model feminists in this regard.

Aaand youre all still missing the point, which has been explucitly stated.  I guess you cant get your outrage fix otherwise.  Carry on with thr dog and pony show, but i know that you know the truth inside.



I don't think she's ugly and you admit the same when you claim she is more 'other' . If you really thought she was ugly you wouldn't need to make excuses for the attractiveness :D :D

Missing the point? No, I got the point, the point was that you like to make dumb unbiased claims based on your own racist views, irrespective of rhyme or reason.

Get your hand off of it. You want me to trawl google images for pictures of full blooded Aboriginal people to satisfy you? How would i begin to prove they a full blooded?

You are probably suffering from the same illness as Honky.

She is a 6, at best. 

I expect you probably find it harder to swallow because we're talking about beuty in women, which is a particularly thorny issue for you and feminists in general, but it cuts both ways.  If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, ask yourself when the last time you heard a shiela say she prefers short pudgy men to tall, square jawed men.  Answer - never.

It may surprise you to know Honky that i have been called beautiful many times by many different people. I know you like to imagine me as some fat, ugly lesbian but you'd be quite wrong.

And i think that women is a 10. So does the industry she works for.

He seems a nice enough fellow, but what I find off-putting about him is that he is a propagandist and apologist extraordinaire when it comes to the subject of Islam and Muslims.

You can guarantee he's got some sort of apologist spiel lined up for his next TV appearance about the Muslim sexual molestation epidemic in Europe. Some sort of mitigating bullshit to pop the Righties back in their box.

There's NEVER any sort of accountability with Muslim Front-men like him.

I'm not convinced that skin colour would make that many people turn off.

I thought that you had read some research on the subject, which is why I was asking.

Cosby was very, very popular in America.

Family Matters was too.

Everybody Hates Chris.

Julia ( I used to love that one, when I was a kid).

Good Times.

Fresh Prince.

Lots of black faces there.


'Good Times' - that was it. I found that to be compulsive viewing.

The fashion industry is run by women and homos, for women and homos. 

The straight male dollar is but a drop in their bucket, and has little relevance to which model they find the hottest. 

On the plus side, feminists needn't worry about being held to "ideals" like this:



That is not an ideal for straight men.  That is an artificial standard, devised by people whos opinions are irrelevant.

And her mother is full-blood. I said i didn't know about her father.

But what would you call her Ian? If you saw her on the street? Would you call her an Aboriginal or would you call her a white person? How do you think she is perceived?

ANd she is darker than that photo shows. She is shot in harsh light in that photo. It is obvious from the reflection on her skin.

You'd have to ask the photographer why he or she wanted to over-expose the photo. They do that sometimes.

I know you are trying to look for some racist agenda but that would be a big fail on your part. If they wanted a white woman, they would have shot a white woman.

I recognise the antii social behaviour prevalent amongst Aboriginal people. how is that racist to tell the truth? Are you claiming that Aboriiginal people dont commit far more crime in proportion than any other group Mothra?

Born to a full-blooded mother. I don't know abou her father but it cannot be claimed she has "more white in her":


Give me a break. You claim to have lived amongst aboriginals, shes at least half white.



Where did i claim to have lived amongst Aboriginal people? You shouldn't just make stuff up Ian.

And her mother is full-blood. I said i didn't know about her father.

But what would you call her Ian? If you saw her on the street? Would you call her an Aboriginal or would you call her a white person? How do you think she is perceived?

ANd she is darker than that photo shows. She is shot in harsh light in that photo. It is obvious from the reflection on her skin.
I would look at her like that and think she was attractive, its obvious she is mixed but unless she was behaving in an anti social manner I wouldnt identify her as aboriginal.


Unless she was acting in an ati-social manner?

You're just a pig-ignorant racist, like Honky.
Not ignorant at all. Just observant.



Definitely ignorant. And racist.

Racists are always ignorant.
I recognise the antii social behaviour prevalent amongst Aboriginal people. how is that racist to tell the truth? Are you claiming that Aboriiginal people dont commit far more crime in proportion than any other group Mothra? If so thats an extraordinary claim and you will have to back it up, although it will be fun to see you try.



The anti-social behaviour you describe is prevalent amongst all demographics with limited educational , social incision opportunities and employment opportunities. It is not a symptom of being Aboriginal.

This is blatantly evidenced by the large number of Aboriginal people who do not behave badly.

I don't assume somebody with dark skin is a Aboriginal because they are behaving badly and 'more white' if they are not, as you claim to do.

Which makes you a racist. A pig-ignorant racist.

So you whinge about sexist action against women but you personally  excuse yourself  from doing it ? Why don't you start a topic detailing what a stinking hypocrite you are??



Yep.

Scrag fits.  I don't see how it's sexist to call them scrags.
The thing that bugs me about you Mothballs is that you are your typical attention seeking female. You chuck on a thread highlighting how hard done by you are. It was absolutely pathetic.




IT wasn't to coplain about "how hard done by" i was. It was to highlight the sexist debating tactics that are used by certain males on this forum.
;D ;D You have a cry about being called ugly and nobody her knows what you even look like. if you can handle insult (after giving it) then don't come on here. Leave the female sook tactics at the entrance.

The anti-social behaviour you describe is prevalent amongst all demographics with limited educational , social incision opportunities and employment opportunities. It is not a symptom of being Aboriginal.

This is blatantly evidenced by the large number of Aboriginal people who do not behave badly.

I don't assume somebody with dark skin is a Aboriginal because they are behaving badly and 'more white' if they are not, as you claim to do.

Which makes you a racist. A pig-ignorant racist.
No one claimed the anti social behaviour was a symptom of being Aborignal . only that it is far more prevalent amongst Aboriginal people. I can see how you are "running rings around me" by arguing a non existing premise.


You said, correct me if i am wrong, that you wouldn't recognise that woman who is clearly Aboriginal as Aboriginal unless she was behaving badly.

Bit of a back-pedal Ian?

I know what you said was silly but you have to own it.

What arent you understanding here? anti social behaviour is prevalent amongst aboriginal people. Behavioural clues give me a hint as to ethnciity, capische? You are twisting and turning here more than an olympic diver. Just admit that Aboriginal people commit far more crime and anti social behaviour than other groups. Why is it so hard to admit the truth?




Me twisting and turning? Projection much.

You said you would not identify a brown skinned woman with obvious Aboriginal features as being actually Aboriginal unless she was behaving badly.  What would you describe her as? More white? A 'dragoon'? Something classy like that?

Just own it. This is getting tiresome.
Im not disputing I said that. My observation would be based on cultural, not racial issues Is this what you are not understanding? Is all you see skin colour Mothra? Certainly seems that way.




What would you call a dark-skinned person with Aboriginal features that isn't behaving badly Ian? WHy do you keep dodging the question?
There is no clear racial definiition of Aboriginality Mothra. You only see race dont you?

At the point where you couldnt back your claim that Aboriginals dont commit crime out out of all proportion to their numbers you lost the argument. I have outlined the facts. All you are doing now is what we call a "greggary" i.e. an attempt to use semantics to deflect from the fact that you are and were wrong.

Ive answered it.  I never judge people purely on racial characteristics. Youve lost Mothra, you are trying to prove me a racist, but Im not. Im a cultural and racial realist. You are trying to avoid acknowledging I am right, but thats ok. I always demolish people,in arguments like this, facts are unkind to people who have taken up predetermined stances based on emotion. I never expect an ackowledgement and my ego doesnt depend on it.

The definition of racist was in question, in  this case i am using yours and Mothras defintiion of   unfailrly  discriminatory towards a person because of their race. you may recall , in the thread where i admitted to being a racist, i also stated that my definition did not involve unfair discrimination.

Now what would you call a brown-skinned woman with Aboriginal features who wasn't behaving badly?

Is there some reason you refuse to answer that question Ian?
  if asked to describe her I would describe her as a brown-skinned woman with Aboriginal features who wasn't behaving badly.



So not just an Aboriginal? Do you reserve that for people behaving badly?
At the point where you couldnt back your claim that Aboriginals dont commit crime out out of all proportion to their numbers you lost the argument. I have outlined the facts. All you are doing now is what we call a "greggary" i.e. an attempt to use semantics to deflect from the fact that you are and were wrong.



I didn't deny it. I addressed it. Did you fail to understand?

Why won't you answer the question Ian? Afraid it will make you sound like a racist? Too late for there to be any doubt about that i'm afraid.   You may as well answer.
Ive answered it.  I never judge people purely on racial characteristics. Youve lost Mothra, you are trying to prove me a racist, but Im not. Im a cultural and racial realist. You are trying to avoid acknowledging I am right, but thats ok. I always demolish people,in arguments like this, facts are unkind to people who have taken up predetermined stances based on emotion. I never expect an ackowledgement and my ego doesnt depend on it.




More posturing. You're a racist. You've proven it.

Now answer the question. You say you have already. I must have missed it. Surely you won't mind repeating it?

sure. I never judge people purely on racial characteristics.

unless they're Muslim ..... right? (I'm sure that this is where you'll tell me it's not a race, but we both know that's playing semantics.)

Bit you have already admitted that you do. According to you a brown skinned person with Aboriginal features behaving badly would be an Aboriginal yet a brown skinned person with Aboriginal features not behaving badly would not be an Aboriginal. They would simply be a brown skinned person with Aboriginal features. It would take them behaving badly for you to concede that they were Aboriginal.

I'm not making this up. This is your argument.

Astonishing but true.

Not at all . thats your arguement, not mine. I stated i do not judge people only on racial characteristics. You have a problem Mothra, you only see black and white and you only see skin colour. you also have this  urge to define everyone, you wont truly succeed in life until you conquer that.

It's nowhere near my argument. You're going to have to try harder than that.
