Re: Ugly-but-Sexy Women?
[ QUOTE ]
My friend asked me if there were Ugly-But-Sexy women.
[/ QUOTE ]
there's a term in french for it: "jolie laide," which translates literally into the easily mocked phrase, "pretty-ugly," referring to women who are unconventional in their beauty. or as francis bacon put it, "there is no exquisite beauty without some strangeness in the proportions."
edit to add: i think she's simply ugly, but a good friend of mine finds sarah jessica parker to be a jolie laide.
