Remember this, Amos....size isn't everything.

I can clearly see that Sophia Loren is a strikingly beautiful woman. No question about that. However, she never really turned me on, whereas some others of the time did. Why? Well, that would be a little hard to explain, because it's a very subtle matter. You'd probably have to have a complete understanding of all the lives I've ever lived to even begin to be able to analyze it with any sense of completeness or certainty. It eludes me. I can only say I am aware of it, and that Sophia Loren doesn't ring the bell for me for some reason...something about her facial structure, perhaps (which is, admittedly, very good).

Or it may just be a question of who she reminds me of. Or it might be something else entirely. Maybe it's the look in her eyes. I find something kind of "hard" in the expression of Loren's eyes, and it doesn't pull me in.

Now, have you ever seen the old movie with Jean Simmons and Gregory Peck in it? It's called "The Big Country". Jean Simmons in that movie does ring the bell for me. Why? Well, I'm not sure, but I think it's something about the level of character that she radiates, combined with a certain sense of fragility, combined with great moral strength...and the honest look she has in her eyes.

That moves me. I'm not all that concerned about the size of her breasts, although I imagine they were probably quite attractive, as breasts go.

I'll have to consult Chongo on this and see what he has to say. ;-) My guess is, he'd take either Loren or Simmons on a rainy day.
