Smiling is a signaling system that evolved from a need to communicate information of many different forms. One of these is advertisement of sexual interest. Female smiles are appealing to males, increasing physical attractiveness and enhancing sex appeal. However, recent research indicates a man's smile may or may not be most effective in attracting women, and that facial expressions such as pride or even shame might be more effective.

bikini girl - iphone 640 x 960



-----

The bikini is a women's two-piece swimsuit. One part of the attire covers the breasts; the other the groin and part or all of the buttocks, leaving an uncovered area between the two. The bikini is often worn in hot weather, while swimming or sunbathing. The shapes of both parts of a bikini resemble women's underwear, and the lower part can range from revealing thong or g-string to briefs.

While two-piece bathing suits had been worn on the beach before, the modern bikini was invented by French engineer Louis Réard in 1946. He named it after Bikini Atoll in the Pacific, the site of the Operation Crossroads nuclear weapon tests in July that year.

The bikini is perhaps the most popular female beachwear around the globe, according to French fashion historian Olivier Saillard due to "the power of women, and not the power of fashion". As he explains, "The emancipation of swimwear has always been linked to the emancipation of women." By the mid 2000s bikinis had become a $811 million business annually, according to the NPD Group, a consumer and retail information company. The bikini has boosted spin-off services like bikini waxing and the suntanning industries.

petra cubonova on beach - iphone 640 x 960

Petra Cubonova is a supermodel from Brno, Czech Republic. Don’t be confused with another hottie named Petra, this one is a whole different person! She has grazed the pages of GQ as well as other high fashion magazines so she’s very well on her way to the top and become as big as a star, if not better, than the Russian Petra.
