From what I have seen, I concur with ^

Yes, emphatically. They are sufficiently gorgeous as a group that the New York TImes ran an article on the phenomenon within the last year. The most beautiful and stylish women in New York, which is not very different from being the most beautiful and stylish women anywhere.

Pics, or these mystical beings of which you speak don't really exist.

I know one in particular who is ridiculously hot. The Times pix are here; note that the one who's wearing a coat around her waist was apparently seventeen so obviously I wasn't at all turned on by her: http://www.nytimes.com/indexes/2007/...eName=02galler Edit: I was referring to gallerinas, not Dedalus's post above. Good lord.

Coming out as cold is unattractive, regardless how hot the person appears physically.

Why do you say this, because the main source of gallerinas is the East Bay?

A couple observations

1. I've never heard this word before, so thanks for the defintions. I particularly like the second one and may start using it. Though I suppose that'll show how behind the times I am.

2. From the few photos and the description (opaque tights) combined with my imagination, I'm going to vote Hot. But I'm way too old to give a shit that none of them would give me the time of day, so I revert to point 1 above.

^^ Yeah, considering that I'd fuck a rolling donut, I'd say "hot".

Hard to track down any confirmed pics but... Apparently they are hired for their looks above some other things? http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/30/fa...allerinas.html
