The "Skanky Ho" versus "Babe" thing is interesting, years ago an buddy of mine's sister (Cheryl Copeland) was "Penthouse Pet of the Month" here in Oz, and we all had signed posters of her plastered everywhere, much to his embarrassment.
He was deployed to Cambodia on a peace keeping job, and while over there, was involved in a really bad vehicle accident, and was casevac'd back to Oz.
Cheryl came in to collect some of his personal stuff, and when she came in, I didn't even look at her twice, she was just wearing jeans and a T shirt, and just looked like any other chick on the street. It wasn't until I'd been chatting to her for awhile as we were emptying her brother's locker, that it dawned on me that the "Babe" that I'd been leering at for months, was this chick right in front of me!
And that's the thing, half of the young girls out there, with some make-up, their hair done, their tattoo's airbrushed off and some soft lighting, will look as good, or better, than a lot of "professional" models, but on other days, may well look like skanky ho's. It's amazing the difference a nice coat of paint makes............
