Haha! How amusing... it's just a stupid poll, geez. Obviously America came out on top because it has the most known attractive celebrities. Still funny.

And India came eighth by virtue of the British predilection for curry.

That Ork comment was a bit extreme lol.

Yes, I know what you mean. All the non-native English speakers here have felt the same sometime. But don't worry: we are clearly gastronomically superior and they are unable to use the metric system. That's what really matters.

Although, obviously, they have included some indisputable facts (e.g. the first European country of the list, etc.) only to give an appearance of credibility to the so-called study.

And because of me.

I enjoy a nicely size 6 feet myself. Not short, and not weirdly tall. I really dodged a genetic bullet, too, because my dad is like...Danny DeVito short.

Score

Yeah, a lot of blokes have a thing about going with girls who are taller than them (judging by the folks I've met in my life anyway). Not a problem I've ever had, what with my being a gangly old wotsit and all.
