The "Magic-S" Pose

Why a post about a pageant entrant who only came third anyhow? Because the photo is such a great example of the "magic-S" that works so well for models everywhere (and Paris Hilton!!). Here it is a fairly lazy S - but it works well for her. Just a quick reminder to practice the pose and up your attraction-appeal so that you can get the guys to start strutting their stuff. (Better sharpen your selector tools as well!!)

Pageant phase earns Casey top national finish


.... Responding to pageant judges who asked her to describe herself in five years, Casey said, “a former Miss Teen USA 2006, successful model, premiering in my first movie and just completing my business degree from the College of William and Mary.”....
....Overall, she found the pageant experience rewarding, even though she ad to come to terms with stereotypes that arise when young girls are walking around in high heels and bikinis, she said. She learned to ignore labels such as “ditzy” and “catty” as she concentrated on opportunities that were opened to her. .... more HERE

Then There are the Beta Guys....

I enjoy this story and thought I would sgare it with you all. Its a story about a male in the wild, BUT, it rings a bell doesn't it!

Animal Attraction By Virginia Morell

Males will do whatever it takes to win the mating game: sing, dance, fight a rival, build a house, give a gift. But in the end, it's usually the females who do the choosing. ....

Now a male can do little more than watch and wait. If he's built a good bower, then he'll succeed in life's ultimate contest and win the top prize: a female who chooses him as a mate. .....

"That's really what it comes down to," says Gerry Borgia, an evolutionary biologist who has studied the mating behaviors of bowerbirds for 23 years. "So you wonder sometimes when you see poorly built bowers," he says, pointing to one in disarray. "You want to say to the guy: 'Hey! This is about your reproductive success! Get moving! Straighten those straws! Find some more bones! Why be a C student?' "....

"You watch enough and... you begin to get a feel for why the female chooses one male and not another," he explains. "It's my guess that this guy isn't going to do well. I mean, that's pathetic," he says, waving his hand at the bird's puny pile of vertebrae. "And the thing is, he took over this site from an older male who died, but who had a great bower with lots of bones. And they're still here! This new guy just hasn't made the effort to move them to his bower." ... more HERE

Here's the cold hard truth about nature. No female will feel sorry for this guy. No female will feel hard enough up to mate with him either. In nature, the beta male does not get to mate!! He does not get selected. Its that simple! Cruel? No way. That's how the species survives! Only the best genes get past on. Please tell me if you can think of any good reason for us human female to defy this rule!!
