On an average, when you watch scientific videos, the women that appear on it to comment or narrate, on an average are rather plain looking and fat. Is is something about the subject, that is not appealing to attractive women? Or is it that beauty and brains don't belong together? Wonder what's your take about this unprecedented phenomenon.

This is an extremely shallow point of view no matter how we look at it.

I judge scientists by their credibility and achievements in their respective fields, not their looks.

Perhaps you should turn your television off if it's your sole source for this conclusion. Or not. I agree with Ghost.

Wow. Maybe your inability to find beauty in all people has blinded you. Marilyn Monroe was no skinny minnie.

Your post certainly shows what you appreciate the most in the opposite sex, but hell I'm guilty of the same at times.

The point of my post however is that someone out there finds them attractive, and that's hopeful for someone like me who's looking, and trying to get to know people beyond a physical level.

Would you not want a potential partner to want you for more than looks ?

I would say it's pretty evident that is all the OP cares about. Might as well get a 'RealDoll'

You never generalized anything.

Your title states:

Why Can't Women In Science Be Attractive?

Your post states:

Is is something about the subject, that is not appealing to attractive women?

and also

Or is it that beauty and brains don't belong together?

Besides, what proof do you have that "generally speaking" Female Scientists can't be attractive?
