Building on the vincemichaels' "Breasts" discussion, I've recently become focused on SKIN. Curious if others are as affected as I am? Smooth and soft works for me, but I've found skin quality seems to be as much related to favorable genes as liberal use of cocoa butter.
I don't mean to start an ethnic flame war here (these are just my observations), but women of African, Asian, and southern Mediterranean extraction seem have universally fabulous skin - always soft and smooth with enough subcutaneous fat layer to provide delicious curves. Conversely, I've encountered numerous northern European women - particularly those of Irish/English ethnicities (I'm guessing) - who have a sandpaper-ish skin quality, especially on upper arms and lower back, with sometimes limited cushioning around bone protuberances (hips, etc.). In any case, smoking, drugs, birthing babies, and hard living never help.
Any other skin aficionados out there?
