I’m a great fan of Christine Aguilera. Why? Well because since the birth of her baby, her half-starved, waif like body has blossomed and she has become a real woman. Well the kind of woman I like. Bit of meat on them bones!
The current bunch of starlets … Like Emma Watson (I just lurve this chick), Miley Cyrus, Dakota Fanning, Elle Fanning, Kirsten Dunst, Natalie Portman, Anne Hathaway, Keira Knightley and Scarlett Johansson are very beautiful and very sexy.
Anyway. my interest in and love for the twenties and thirties is well documented here on FG. However, in my humble opinion they would all come a poor second to these babes!

The Babes ... Now and Then!
I've always had a "thing" for Ava Gardner, which I've mentioned here before.
The photo that made her famous, taken when she was 17 (I believe.)
Ava Gardner’s rise to an international film legend was true modern day fairy tale. Ava’s older sister of nineteen years, Beatrice “Bappie” Gardner, had moved to New York and married Larry Tarr, a professional photographer and proprietor of his family’s photographic studios. While Ava was visiting her sister in New York in the summer of 1939, Tarr produced a series of photos of the young Ava. One image displayed in the window of his Fifth Avenue shop caught the attention of Barney Duhan, a young man who was working in the legal department of Lowe’s Theatres as an errand boy. Attempting to acquire Ava’s phone number for a date, Duhan posed as a talent scout for MGM with connections “straight through to the right people.” Although he implied Ava’s good looks would interest MGM, the savvy receptionist know the ways of smart young New York boys interested in pretty young girls, and stalled his effort by simply promising to deliver the message. Hearing of the incident and recognizing an opportunity, Larry Tarr and his staff worked through the night to print more photos of Ava. Tarr delivered them the next day to MGM’s New York office, and Ava soon got the call young girls dreamed of. She was asked to appear for a screen test, and in 1941 at the age of 18, Ava signed a seven-year movie contract with MGM studios for fifty dollars a week. Source

Seems like there have been a lot of threads about what women's beauty should look like. I'm not such a big fan of looks since I was one of the people who saw stars in the morning and turned them into the objects of desire that made them so much money.
I do agree with people who say that sexy women have more flesh on their bones and happen to be older than 18, unlike most current models.
I don't agree that sexiness in youth has anything to do with value unless it connects to some sort of individualistic expression.
And I say that as a professional.
