Yes, Rachel, the Boys' Poll is next Friday.
Well, I've already made a hash of this right from the start. I left Nigella off and Freepolls only allow ten variants. So the only way out of it [some votes already having been cast] is to count TOTAL VOTES and I'll tot up the percentages once it's all done, after the weekend.
Now, let's get down to it
Only a fool would claim that young women are not beautiful and enticing but 'sexy' is a much broader term than just perfect skin and sharp movements. It's the combination of so many things and the expression that a woman is like a fine wine - better as she gets older, I'd vouch for from my [limited] experience.
There's an animal wildness and a knowledgeability to the experienced lady [in the one or two I've known] which the younger girl is going to have to wait years to develop.
So, here are eleven such ladies for you to vote for in the right sidebar. Remember that you're allowed multiple votes done at one time.
1. Stevie Nicks [61]
2. Queen Noor of Jordan [57]
3. Cristina Fernández de Kirchner. President of Argentina [56]
4. Segolene Royal [55]
5. Michelle Pfeiffer [51]
6. Ann Curry, U.S. television personality [51]
7. Susanna Hoffs, from the Bangles [50]
8. Kate Bush - yes, Kate herself [50]
9. Julia Louis Dreyfus, U.S. actress and comedienne [47]

10. Monica Bellucci [44]
You must be wondering about Catherine Zeta-Jones, Emmanuelle Beart, Queen Rania of Jordan, Audrey Tautou, Carla Bruni and many others. They're all too young! Slips of girls.
You might be wondering about why Christie Brinkley's not here either. She's a model and I've left the models out because their profession is beauty.

2nd group - those the readers insist should be there
11. Nigella Lawson [47]
11. Nigella Lawson [47]PLEASE VOTE IN THE SIDEBAR, RATHER THAN IN THE COMMENTS :)
Why haven't you Got Nigela Lawson in there?........by the way bloody nice blog.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes Nigela. She does carry it well, and she can cook! My vote goes for Michelle Pfeiffer. I loved her in Ladyhawke.
ReplyDeleteI've always thought the fine wine and aging was a good analogy. I'll admit to being in the range your seeking, just had a birthday even. However, my hubby is quite possessive. ;D
Debbie Harry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIf two ask, she goes on. Nigella, yes. She needs to be there. We'll now run it as TOTAL VOTES, rather than as percentages. I'll do the percentages at the end.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, one of you didn't vote, according to the number of votes cast.
Oh and thanks, Economic Voice.
ReplyDeleteHGF - possessive, eh? Now I'm intrigued by you.
I'll wait for the boys' poll I think.
ReplyDeleteAnother Welshy in the room Liz....your not my wife are you?....she was cooking my Thai Green Curry. Her name is Liz aswell.
ReplyDeleteoops, that would have been me
ReplyDelete...details, details.....

ReplyDeleteah, I thought ya'll were English here? ;D
James,
ReplyDeletehmm, intrigued are you... :)

ReplyDeleteNigella Lawson and Michele Phieffer and on other I am too tired to recall. I never follow directions as you can see.
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteUber, I just went over to Southern something and she knows you. She left a comment here and I forgot to go back. It seems her blog's shut down. Tell her I tried.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, Uber, you're supposed to VOTE IN THE SIDEBAR. :) Hope you're OK.
ReplyDeleteHGF ......... yes.
I can't wait to see the result to this one :-)
ReplyDeleteBTW: I love the Bloghounds logo you are running at the moment.
I don't have a proper graphics programme so it's just a mock-up for now to see how it looks. The pic is wiki commons.
ReplyDeleteNigella. It's Bellucci, btw.
ReplyDeleteOoh decisions, decisions!
ReplyDeleteI shall vote now.
ReplyDeleteYou know, people, this is getting to be quite fun. I woke up a short time of go and just had to look and the pattern had changed in the voting. I shouldn't think there'd be too much on Saturday - usually my worst day of blogging but still ...
ReplyDeleteInteresting that Nigella is doing so well.
