According to the website beautifulpeople.com the British are among the ugliest people in the world. Only one in eight men and three in 20 women have been accepted into the elite-dating site. The site allows members to rate other members of the opposite sex based on a photo. They have a period of 48 hours for a thumbs up or thumbs down rating. The site's statistics states that Swedish men have proven to be the most successful as have the Norwegian women. According to news.com.au Beautiful People managing director Greg Hodge said "I would say Britain is stumbling because they don't spend as much time polishing up their appearance and they are letting themselves down on physical fitness. Next to Brazilian and Scandinavian beauties, British people just aren't as toned or glamorous." Russian women have a 44 per cent acceptance rate and their men have a bah baow (meaning zero) acceptance. I find this whole story hilarious considering the two people in the photo are hardly models! Ah well I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
