I don't see Dead Man's curve anywhere on the list.

I thought this would be a thread about Marilyn Monroe. My bad.
Jayne Mansfield in hot pants isn't enough for you?
no laffer curve?

Ain't gonna knock Miss Mansfield at all, just prefer Marilyn when it comes to curves. Of course I don't think either of them hold a candle to Audry Hepburn. :)
I'll see your Hepburn, and raise you a Raquel Welch.

Hmmm, that would be a tough one to beat, or even match in all honesty.
Aha! I see your Raquel, and offer my wife!

I'll fold, respectfully leaving your wife to you. After all, it's often hard to find a partner that will put up with a gamer's crap. I was lucky enough to find one that also games.

Heh. Did anyone read _Doorways_In_The_Sand_ by Roger Zelazny? It has a poem which describes the curves of conic sectors, making them sound like the curves of women's bodies. I liked that poem so much, I memorized it.

Christina Hendricks is where I go for curves nowadays.
Yeah I spent a couple of years in Mansfield... Ohio.
Hit us with it Aaron, I'm game for a good poem.
I think that writing it all out may be a copyright infringement...

Them ain't hot pants! They's capris!

Only if you claim it as your own work.
Even then, you are not trying to profit from it.
Culture transmits.

Fine. They're pants. They're hot. I refuse to argue the semantics any further.

Not... argue... semantics?
What is this strange concept you speak of? I find it vaguely attractive but appalling at the same time... like millions of interweb trolls cried out at once and then were silenced.
I think I need to sit down...
Cybill Shepherd in The last Picture Show and Ann-Margret, early-to-mid-1960s are the two most perfectly beautiful runners-up ever.
But nothing compares to Audry Hepburn's beauty.
Nothing.
I beg to differ. (Yes, different decade, but still...)
Christina Hendricks is definitely a beautiful woman. I'm personally a fan of Jennifer Love Hewitt and, even though I vehemently disagree with her politics, Scarlett Johannson.

Lobachevsky alone has looked on Beauty bare.
She curves in here, she curves in here. She curves out there.
Her parallel clefts come together to tease
In un-callipygianous-wise;
With fewer than one hundred eighty degrees
Her glorious triangle lies.Her double-trumpet symmetry Riemann did not court -
His tastes to simpler-curvedness, the buxom Teuton sort!
An ellipse is fine for as far as it goes,
But modesty, away!
If I'm going to see Beauty without her clothes
Give me hyperbolas any old day.The world is curves, I've heard it said,
And straightway in it nothing lies.
This then my wish, before I'm dead:
To look through Lobachevsky's eyes.

How about a two-fer-one?
What a shame, that most of the delectable ladies in these links, if they were still performing today, would be pursued by the vile, scabrous hacks of the back-biting, poison-tongued, self-hating women's magazine trade, trying for telefoto evidence of them putting on an ounce, so they can rung their pre-written headline of "OMG LOOK AT THIS FAT COW! HOW CAN SHE DARE GO OUT LIKE THIS, THE FREAKISH HEFFALUMP?".
Followed a week later, after losing the ounce, with the cover revelation "OMG! LOOK AT THIS SKINNY B#%+$! IS SHE BULIMIC, OR WHAT?"

Here's one for you, Ray. It blew little Snorter's mind, back in the day. Haven't looked at an eclair the same way since.
I think Ms. Hepburn was too bony for me. I tend to like women somewhere between voluptuous and lush.
Audrey Hepburn is probably the most beautiful woman to ever exist, followed by Natalie Portman in a close second, she is nowhere near curvy.
Raquel Welch, Marilyn Monroe, and the other classic beauties have much better curves than Audrey. They have the curves but she has the grace.

In my travels I have come across many women, and I am disapointed to see only a couple names thrown up in this discussion of beauty and curves.
I would have to say that most people are wrong if they claim Cleopatra was the most beautiful woman of all time. She was actually pretty plain, and lacking in the curves department. She made up for it with force of personality, and in this case the personality was the attractive part of her. She was able to convince almost anyone to do just about anything, and her charisma all but made up for the average looks.
Joan of Arc also wasn't all that great in the curves department. She was a poor peasant, and honestly didn't have diet to sustain any curves. That, and her combat training kept her pretty boyish and muscular. Once again, personality and charisma made up for that.
Helen of Troy, on the other hand, was a looker. I wish I could show you pics, but alas it is against time travel law to do so. She really was worth a war, and if she was my wife I wouldn't have let her out of my sight in the first place. In fact, I probably would have made sure she was so happy with me she wouldn't even consider starting a war by running away. She blows your Audry and Marlyn out of the water.
Okay, in all seriousness, I consider my wife to be the most beautiful woman in the world. I am even going to prove it at PaizoCon, because she is attending with me.
That being said, I do recognize that there are some other beautiful women out there. Like I was told once, (not sure by who though,) "You don't look once, you are not a man. You look twice, your not a husband."
Now for the Geeks out there: Famous Curves.

Thus, thus, so and thus: awakening as a thing of textures and shadings: advancing and retreating along a scale of soft/dark, smooth/shadow, slick/bright: all else displaced and translated to this: The colors, sounds and balances a function of these two.
Advance to hard and very bright. Fall back to soft and black . . ."Do you hear me, Fred?"--the twilight velvet.
"Yes" --my glowing scales.
"Better, better, better . . ."
"What/who?"
"Closer, closer, that not a sound betray . . .

Burn, math. BURN!!!!!!!!!!
Young Stephanie Seymore had the curves AND the looks. I guess she wasn't into the acting thing, too much.
A little on the thin side, but not bad...
I knew going in that the famous curves promised us would be framed in math, but a part of me secretly hoped against hope that they would be framed in a bath.
I am calling you out, Freehold DM.
Now, I admit, that I prefer a woman with a bit more of a badunkadunk, but I find the idea that you, or any heterosexual male, would kick Ms. Hepburn out of bed for eating crackers absolutely preposterous!
More hawt chicks:
Tippi Hedren and Suzanne Plechette
This one's not entirely SFW
I would kick her out of bed for her accent alone.

And send her back to Who-ville, Mr. Grinch? For shame.
Heh. Did anyone read _Doorways_In_The_Sand_ by Roger Zelazny?
I loved that book, largely because I spent a lot of my undergrad time at night on roofs and fire escapes, and I used to regret not being able to climb the computer center building before graduating.

Oh, would you prefer this one?
