Well you can't criticize how the averaging method is "BS" based off of the lack of a randomly distributed skin discolouration when its averaged...

Uniquely irregular features define all women, and men for that matter. It hardly makes sense to complain only about how this impacts Filipinas.

But when the algorithm they used averages out the graphical representations of a face, irregularities like moles and freckles disappear, since they get averaged out.

And you seem to have quite a think for Phillipina breasts

As noted by other posters, the same woman is repeated several times. The author is trying to "smooth over" all women's features that are different from the ones he likes. In other words, it's pornography. It's misogyny pure and simple. (I get a good laugh at how the women-haters on this message board ignore this thread, but go bat-**** crazy about anything that might discourge some sales at their buddies' gutter boutiques.)

You are overthinking this to a rather hilarious degree.

this should be redone using passport photos. the sample is biased towards attractive woman notwithstanding the fact that these averages are predisposed to be more beautiful
