Sharon Stone is the perfect woman in her prime...


Nobody even comes close to her beauty when she's in her prime..

What?!? Not even that Jennifer Aniston?!

I'm the first to admit that she FUBAR'd that Clive Owen film Derailed - which put me off of her since then - but isn't she quite fetching?

I will admit that Sharon did look gorgeous in the film tho.

Jenny is good but not nearly had the enough sex appeal as Sharon. She was kinda mediocre looking compared to SHaron, especially in Friends. But yeah granted she had a much better career than Sharon. Sharon deserved a much better career.

I only bring the Jen Aniston Theroux point because she was recently (April '16) voted People magazine most beautiful woman (or something)

I do think that Sharon is more attractive than Jenny too tho.

I'm with the OP on Stone (by a long shot) but I think that's very interesting comparison.

Times have changed. We used to like women that were unrealistically perfect: classically beautiful, hyper sexual and unattainable. Women that made everyone else feel almost unworthy (Monroe, Gardner, Stone, Basinger, etc.). These women were almost threatening to some. Now we tend to like women that are real and relatable: charmingly flawed, awkwardly sexual and approachable (Aniston, Bullock and so on). Women that make everyone else feel accepted. Women that are a danger to no one.

There also used to be a clear difference between the public persona and the actual person for the first group (we actually knew little about the person) while, now, there is virtually no difference between the public persona and the private person.

I see a lotta "we"s in that post, amigo. Didn't know basic male psychology had changed so dramatically in the last 20 years.

reply

I've never understood how people think Aniston is so hot. She's very plain looking to me. Sharon Stone makes her look like a total dog.

reply

Jeanne Tripplehorne was way sexier than Sharon - her being anally raped in Basic Instinct is one of the hottest scenes ever.

reply

I thought Tripplehorn did look kind of sexy in this flick but Sharon Stone was way hotter. And Tripplehorn has never looked as good as she did in this movie ever since. She got uglier and uglier ever since this came out. She seemed way out of place in The Firm.

You have another post with heading "Sharon Stone is not that attractive". So which is it, FVCKTARD?
