I'll buy that, sort of.  I'm an inveterate, unabashed "girl watcher" and
long smooth lines are very kind to the eye.  I diverge from Mr. Morris' line
of thought in one respect:  prepubescent girls are as angular in frame as
boys.

We're talking curves, baby.  Nature hates a straight line.  I gotta agree
with nature on this one!  (Bobby, you and I are gonna get flamed so bad that
any hair we might need to otherwise shave is gonna be singed off anyway.)

Desmond Morris in his book, "Man Watching", says that Western women do
things
like shaving legs and axillary regions in order to maintain a pre-pubescent
look. That attracts us ol' pervert males!
