EL PASO, Texas -- The Sun City has many things to offer, but according to one online magazine, handsome men isn't one of them.
Total Beauty.com ranked El Paso No. 1 for the ugliest guys in the country.
"I don't think I'm ugly, no I don't," said Corey Keith of northeast El Paso.
But the magazine didn't judge men by looks alone. Editors included physical fitness and education.
In the article it said, “Nearly 15 percent of the dudes in this Lone Star City have less than a 9th grade education. The city also suffers from a notably high rate of obesity.”

NM ping
Nearly 15 percent of the dudes in this Lone Star City have less than a 9th grade education.
Good God that is incredible. 15 percent can’t finish 9th grade....yes this is a stupid city.
I'm sure that would have absolutely nothing to do with the large number of illegals there. It would be racist to even consider such a possibility.
hey, I’d like to be on a New MExico ping list!
No. 1: El Paso, Texas
No. 2: Hagerstown, Md.
No. 3: Miami, Fla.
No. 4: Greensboro, N.C.
No. 5: Mobile, Ala. and Huntington, W.Va. (tie)
No. 6: Detroit, Mich.
No. 7: Philadelphia, Pa.
No. 8: Houston, Texas
See, things could be worse ping.
Should we be flocking to El Paso, because we will look good by comparison? Or is Butt Ugly an equal oportunity attribute in El Paso, that is best left to itself?
Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, Texas.
I don’t run a list.
Those are just names I remember after years of bumping into them on FR threads.
What percentage of Americans with high school diplomas have a ninth grade education?
I’ve often wondered about the origin of that photograph. The one on the right makes the one on the left look positively debonair!
It’s two FReepers getting ready for the prom.
Ahhh. Shes cute.
"This is the town my Pappy tol' me about."
Well, I loathe and hate El Paso; so I’m going to beleive this one.
My brother married a woman from El Paso, and let me tell you, the women are fugly too. Not only is she hard on the eyes, but she is also a full fledged card carrying member of ACORN as well.
We have people like that around here. They live up in the hills. WAAAY up in the hills.
That’s a classic Bill Mauldin cartoon. Bill was from New Mexico, much of which (I am led to believe) is more scenic than El Paso.
Most of the men are Mexicans. So, they’re saying Mexican men are fat and ugly?
It’s a pretty place. NH is nice too, the only time I was there was to do the Mt. Washington Hillclimb (younger and fitter).
I live 1100’ higher than Washington now.
There are more good looking women in El Paso than in the entire state of North Carolina.
Maybe he is your half brother and you got all the BRAINS?
Photographer Roger Ballen took this photo of Dresie and Casie, a twin brother from West Transvaal, as featured in his book: Platteland: Images from Rural South Africa.

The El Paso Patriot Cheerleaders!
I plan to be too, as soon as I get my after-work martini. ;-)
Good thing I only spent 6 months there.
Mom sez it’s my turn to wear the watch!
Hmm I don't see DFW anywhere on this list but yet there Houston is in black and white, at number 8 and rising fast, so I am told.
What say ye, H-town denizens? How can this be?
If the women look anything like the extremely attractive Hispanic-looking women I saw in restaurants and motels during my recent two week excursion to the Southwest, then I’d say El Paso has a lot of lovelies. I’ve only briefly spent time in El Paso, but the women I saw looked pretty darn attractive.
No.
Fat and ugly and ignorant.
OK. I’m not sure I would disagree with their rating El Paso number one, then. On the other hand, why is anyone rating how men look?
Awww shutup helmet hair.........:o)
