Looks like she's had some "work" done.

"Is that the North wind I feel blowing across my scantily clad, quasi-large, heaving bosoms? Oh joy! It'll be Christmas soon!"

She's hot, but it seems it was a bit nippy where she was standing? Also the fake alarm went of here...

And you guys wonder why more women don't post their pictures here! Sheesh!! :)

She's beautiful, no matter how you slice and dice it.

D.

I agree, but perhaps she could cut back on the lip injections.

no surgeon can improve upon nature in the aesthetics department. people with botox look like they've just been smacked in the face with a tennis racket. And balloon lips and fake tits just look freaky. that said, I would not throw basso out of bed, just for the italian factor. plus she might have some cool cycling shit.

Don't hold back - how do you really feel?

Hey Janet, there are donuts in the conference room.

who cares if she has had work done.

Beautiful is Beautiful and she is smokin in my book.

take Anyone --> surgery--> they are still the same person

Mr. Uncaptured External Costs

Fossil carbon is planetary poison.

I'm sorry....totally artificial, not sexy whatsoever!!!

Thank you mwbyrd....that made my evening!!!!

I agree with others here saying she's somewhat artificial.... but... well... that picture is hard to argue with. I suppose I can't help it if I'm just another 'a-hole guy' who goes ga-ga for a thin waist and, well, nice features. Actually, in a psychology class I had last semester, we talked about how humans are naturally attracted to healthy looking people (in our own subjective minds). Both men and women are attracted to symmetrical faces and bodies. It's a sign of health. And it was also discussed that one reason men like women to have large breasts is because we think (unconsciously) that they will be better suited for motherhood and continuing the human race.

So yeah, she's a fox.

I'd do her.

:)

dang

in a heartbeat!

Now that's a nice visual!

TheBikeRacer.com

Agreed.

I think the people who are being critical are missing some key points.

First, she is obviously used to the training regimens of an endurance athlete.

You: "Honey, I'm doing a 5 1/2 hour bike ride today"
Her: "What, only 5 1/2? Tomorrow is your long ride?"

Second, think of the potential "pillow talk":
"Are you sure your brother won't mind if I use his carbon soloist?"
"Yes. He has many bikes. More than he needs. Take that p3C thing with the funny handlebars as well."

I wonder if she knows how to cook?

"cuz silicone parts are made for toys"

New rule for ST users to make this a better place:
When someone asks for ADVICE, don't be a douche. Give advice or STFU.

She's got silicon boobs.

Lots of people get braces for their teeth but I don't ever hear someone say
"those teeth are totally fake. I would never be seen with her/him." Both procedures alter a person's natural appearance for cosmetic reasons.

Can anyone translate the tat on her tummy? If I ever run into her I figure it will be a good conversation starter.

"Lots of people get braces for their teeth but I don't ever hear someone say
"those teeth are totally fake."

Exactly!

And the reason is equating teeth that are straightened to converting a flat chest to two round unatural plastic balls is quite a stretch at best.

I can't get past the thought of what it must've been like to share a house with those two and their egos while they were growing up. I'm sure the atmosphere was frequently insufferable --- at best.

You Guys really are not discerning. I guess everything has been so plasticised even taste in women have gone that way. If you got brother Ivan to turn himself into Ivana with his long slim bod and long legs, get some silicon packs into his pigeon chest, shave, make-up and wig, he would look hotter than his sister! Real physical beauty is au naturelle and as someone here said it can't be fully replicated through man made means ...yet.

That Sister is plastic and she's skinny, not much of a real feminine bod. Like I said if you're going for that body type her brother may be more statuesque. Italian girls naturally are ma-ma mia nice, curvy of bod and sensual of face. But that one, I could honestly say I would have trouble getting a rise.

But preference by definition is a subjective thing ... so go for it if it turns you on.

:)

so you people dissing her, would you say no?

im with you on that one.

"Italian girls naturally are ma-ma mia nice, curvy of bod and sensual of face."

And Jewish girls? Black girls? Hispanic girls? Eskimo girls? What stereotypical characteristics would you attribute to all of them? If I were you I'd worry less about what some woman you'll never meet looks like and more about how flat-out stupid you just made yourself appear. And my guess is that this is one case where appearances are not, in fact, desceiving.

how is this girl NOT curvy?

Now we have to be "politically correct" about what we find alluring? Yikes.

Sweet Jesus....!!!Been away from the Forum for a few days....Ill never leave again!!

I don't mind fake, as long as it's done well. Those are not.

They are un-naturally big and you can actually see where the implant begins. They are not right for her. $10 says she looked fantastic before the work and I'll bet they didn't feel like an over-inflated water balloon

Jewish girls? Black girls? Hispanic girls? Eskimo girls? and Italian girls they all have their unique charms. That's the beauty nature affords us. When I was in Italy just moving around them bambinas really were very nice. Pity I couldn't speak Italian.

Steorotypical characteristics? Where did you come up with that? Next you'll do the stereotypical internet chat thing and call me a racist because I recognise some differentiations in people.

And what's so difficult about meeting those femmes? Just talk to them like a 'normal' human being would be my suggestion. Now whose looking flat out stupid ?

Yeah Dude,

I suspect that she was basically flat chested to start off with, not unusual since she's really pretty skinny. Not that many skinny girls are naturally endowed. So the Silicon paks she put in caused that look cuz there was really not that much to enhance to begin with.

I disagree that she's too big cuz even augmented she's still pretty average. But I agree she would be much more attractive if she were naturally small in her original form....a much better turn on. That sultry look I believe would be difficult for her to pull off if she took off all that heavy make-up.

I was watching an International Athletic meet on the tube last night. They were having the ladies' sprint heats and some of those gals really had quite yummy bods and them skimpy panty type tights really accentuate their feminine deriers. Some even had bouncing bosoms ..so nice. Then along came the long distance gals and that really was an anti-climax.

For a gal to be that skinny it's going against nature and many of them can't even mensturate anymore. For guys to have preference to girls that skinny eg Basso's sister, it's a preference unaturally shaped by celluloide marketing. We should really stay true to ourselves and not let commercialisation stereotyping shape our perceptions too much. At the opposite end of the scale you've got some guys who prefer gals who are real lard asses with rolls of fat all over. To each his own but both these preferences are on the extremes. For you guys who find stick thin gals below 12% bodyfat so HOT!; I ask "In essence what's the real diff between these two extremes?"

Runway models vs Beauty pagent babes, there's the contrast in female form preferences put into perspective.

wierd. you must have some kinda fat girl fetish cos basso's sis is far from 'skinny'?

She's skinny cuz the outine of her bones can be seen below her neck and her hip bones do jut out a little, probably more in real life than the pic. Besides her silicon tits she's actually not bad cuz she's got natural curves. But I did sort of date a model once (she had an on going BF), tall and similar skinny but curvy with no silicon breast implants. All she had were little mounds with nipples. It was nice but quite often bone to bone though I'm not complaining.

Thing is the Guys were going on about what a Hottie Basso's sis is as if she would be a candidate for Ms Perfect. My opin is simply she's too skinny, false boobs and a lot of heavy make-up, n basically your typical 'plastic' model look to be a true sensual beauty worthy of drooling over. I reckon that it's all that commercial celluloid brain washing that's given people perceptions that unaturally enhanced skinny girl's like Basso's sister are the ultimate hottie. In an extreme analogy it's almost like getting turned on by an inflattable doll somebody made, because your preferences have been programmed that way to overide natural preferences.

Just one guys opinion in an internet exchange of opinions.

Dude, just how long and hard did you stare at that woman's body??!! If you spend that much time studying someone you say you don't find attractive just what the hell do you do with a picture of someone you do find attractive? A bit stalker-ish, eh?

Yo Steph!

Look at the Hottie thread in the Lavender room...you'll see me there too!

> How do you know that she has false boobs

look at the pic, you can see the scar where the implant was put in quite easily if you know where to look.

"Can anyone translate the tat on her tummy? If I ever run into her I figure it will be a good conversation starter."
=========================
Sure. You can tell her it's total nonsense. The first character wasn't even rendered properly, but it appears to be one meaning "beauty" or "splendor"; the second isn't rendered well, either, but means "exit" or "to come from"; ; and the third is a rather archaic form of "him/her," so I guess it's supposed to mean something like "beauty radiates from her." Although, like I implied, those three characters would never be used together that way in authentic Chinese.

I'm amazed how many people walk around with totally boneheaded things tattooed on them in Chinese characters. You'd figure they'd at least do the equivalent of proofreading first before getting it done more or less permanently.

I enjoy proofreading Basso's body, though. Maybe there's some more writing on her butt cheeks...

Well I'm a boob connossieur, have been oggling and feeling (when there's the opportunity) so those look false to me. You're right that they're not big that they are proportionate in size to her skinny bod. She probably started out with just nipples. But because they are false and look false I would hardly consider them beautiful. They look like pumped up plastic balls. Real boobs are rarely that symetrical ball like.

Yes viking, and sampling makes one even younger again.

Yes it's possible altho I don't know about how probable. A good feel which we are unlikely to be privy to would give better confirmation. But she's still too skinny to be a Ms Perfect. She does have that stereotype bod that Mags like Sports Illustrated and VH would have us believe is the perfect female form. Like a lanky teenage boy before adolescence, add on ball like boobs and chop his dick off. Teenage if she is (doubtful) doesn't mean she has to be a skinny minnie or skinnie Basso as the case may be.

Right on !

TDF news are quite interresting on this forum... These days I am training for the MTL-QC classic road race (270 km's). BTW I've also registered for IM Coeur d'alene 2006.

Funny, those pics just reminds me that race last year (1/2 IM Magog) when I was lucky enough to have a b--- show as a girl pulled up her t-shirt showing no bra on the run leg. Wasn't that good looking, though !

Aren't we all interconnected by seven degrees of seperation? Certainly we all can get positive confirmation one way or the other on her status. Either way I think the question is, would you kick her out of bed? Judging by the number of views I'd say she's getting plenty of attention.

"Judging by the number of views I'd say she's getting plenty of attention"

Good point Dave.

Guess the other guys here are getting their rocks off over her. For me my incestant posting was not focussed on her but to argue that real beauty should be natural and not commercially reproduced. Guess I am sorely in the minority judging from the responses and judging from the popularity of Sports Illustrated and the WWE Divas.

That series of documentaries on Disco Channel, a study about us human beings as biological entities, had a lot of interesting info on various facets of human behaviour and motivations and even different behavioural patterns in the two genders. Almost all behavioral studies backed up by case studies, showed that it was pure natural instinct which guides us, even in our modern day behaviour. For example even the subconscious effect of suitable scent which matches best genes has a large part to play in our sexual attraction to one another.

Body type perfection and most desirably attractive to the opposite sex according to this documentary was determined by the the best body type for procreation of the healthiest in the species. For the men it was the well built muscular and flat stomached body type which is likely to produce the best healthy sperm. Not surprisingly the most perfect body type for women was to be able to best bear and rear children. So curvaceous hips and naturally big bossoms, like Sophia Lorren or Selma Hyack is the way to go not the skinny Basso types.

But there you go, even the Scientists in Disco documentary never factored in the effect of commercialization. But that's in the good old US of A where in some parts being Gay is trendy. No wonder them Muslim Jihadists are going nuts. (pls excuse my bad attempt at bad humour)
