They are obviously beautiful. So Real Beauty is obvious beauty.

I didn't want to belabor this point this much really. It was just an off the cuff remark about advertising.

Obviously beautiful? Do these women look like the ones you usually see in advertisements? They don't look like the ones I normally see in magazines or on television every night. The point is that they ARE still beautiful, regardless of what popular culture says.

I don't get the funnies either.

And no, they don't look like the girls I see when I open my Cosmo. Not at all.

The ones I usually see in advertisements look like 13 year old Latvian orphans who haven't eaten in a month. They're pretty gross looking, if you ask me.

They sure are, and so would a house full of super model-esque women, who all looked the same during recruitment. That is just too Stepford Wives for me. But hey, that's just me.
