Super Models Everywhere. Well kinda.

So when you think about a Brazil, who comes to mind? I´ll tell you. Giselle. Don´t deny it. You would be lying. If I said: what comes to mind? It´s a safe bet the word would be either bikini or wax. Before I got here, I was under the impression that all the girls here would be above six feet tall, and they would only want to sleep with Tom Brady, that lucky bastard. However that is not true. The Brazilian population that I have seen as a whole is not all that tall. As a matter of fact, I would say they were average height at best. (Mind you, being a guy, I´m gonna be biased and say nothing of the male population cause I can´t judge that kinda thing. But I can say that if you are a lady, and you like surfers, this is the place for you.) But, that is not to say that the occasional girl does not walk by that does not fall into the super model category. In those instances, John and I tend to stop walking, fearing we will trip over our own feet, and we stop talking, because all guys know that their brains stop working when pretty girls go by. John actually likes to keep talking and seem smooth. These sentences are usually a collection of verbs and adjectives with no relation to each other. Something along the lies of "sprint hot springs airplane." I´m pretty sure that was a direct quote, and I´m also pretty sure we were talking about the ocean before John went off on this gem of a tangent. We remain in said stupor until the girl passes us with a polite smile, and then we both look at each other and wonder what they feed those angels. The only logical explanation is that the government grows them. But the more I think about it that makes very little sense because as far as I can tell the government can barely keep the electricity on for 24 consecutive hours. Power outages are so common that buying meat or dairy products is like playing Russian Roulette. How many times do you think that T-Bone has been frozen and thawed? I try to never ask myself those questions, seeing as how I really like the yogurt here. Anyway, back to the point, this would lead me to believe that growing super models would be out of the question because that has to take a lot of continual electricity. Where these girls come from will probably always remain a mystery. Maybe heaven, it has to be some place good that is all i know. I do have to say though that on a whole the Brazilian female population that I have seen is attractive. My disclaimer: I had to throw in this blog because; one, I´m a guy, and two other guys have been asking me about this particular topic. And yes the Brazilian Bikini is not just something that you see on models. It is the bathing suit of choice for the majority of the female population. Its a great thing. Most of the time. Sometimes great is the exact opposite of the appropriate description, but hey, they can´t all be winners.
