So... I'm Jewish, but I have no idea if I "look Jewish". I'm about 40-50 lbs overweight at 5'8". Dark brown hair (well, white hair, probably, if I didn't color it, but it used to be dark brown) that isn't curly, but isn't straight either. It's got a persistent wave that I've been trying to beat to death since I was a teenager.
Medium nose. Not big, stereotypes to the contrary, and cheekbone shaped cheekbones. Light brown, almost dark gold eyes.

Tall, very thin, bony, with a small frame. Sharp, angled features, with a pointed nose. Blue eyes with a depth to them that is surprising when compared with the rest of the package.

I am 5'3" and thin and small chested. I have shoulder-length mouse-brown hair. I wear it parted in the middle with the front tucked behind my ears almost every single day. I have fairly large blue-grey-green eyes and somewhat bushy, dark eyebrows. I wear thin, dark grey, wire-frame glasses that are often smeared with baby fingerprints.
My nose is my most promintent facial feature, other than perhaps my eyebrows. It is wide and longish but not huge. I think I would call myself pretty, except my nose makes me not quite what Americans consider beautiful in a woman. Also the fact that I look brainy.
I have a very small mouth with naturally straight teeth. There is a small gap between my two front teeth, but it used to be much wider when I was a child. My top lip is so thin it's almost not there. I have a small cleft in my chin. My face shape, I just found out, is a diamond. I have a high forehead, wide cheekbones, and a narrow chin.

I'm about 5'4", maybe a little taller, and quite thin. My hair is brown, not very dark, but not at all close to blonde either. It falls below my shoulders but it's almost always up in a tight bun. My eyes are also a medium brown, and I generally wear contacts. I wear no makeup. My teeth look nice and straight, though I know that they don't actually line up. When I smile you only see my upper teeth, which is good because when I got my braces off in high school I got white strips but I did my upper teeth more than my lower so there's a color difference (unnoticed by anyone else). I have a few zits, but they tend not to be too big or red so my skin generally looks nice.

I'm 5'7", and shrinking every year. What hair I have is somewhere between jet black and jet white. I don't consider myself overweight, but I am always chided about my little bulge of a belly (by my wife, mostly). Spending a lot of time near the ground has given me a good idea on how a bug views life, and I have been told that, ironically enough, my eyes are beady and insect-like. I used to be called handsome, now I'm just called cute.

5' 11", sophisticated complexion with deep blue eyes and blond hair. Vigorously muscular.
So that's Daniel Craig. I'm about 1.8m tall, with short black hair and dark hazel eyes. Caucasian enough that no-one would guess I was Japanese, but very thin (read: visible ribcage).

I am 5'11" and 19 and a half. I have dark strawberry blond hair with natural highlights that is thick and wavy and cut right at my shoulders. I am truely big-boned; I have very long thick bones. I am a little overweight, but within a healthy range. I have a very stong facial structure, with a heart shaped face. My eyes are blue/green/grey, very cool shades of each(as in cool vs. warm).

5'6.5", unattractive, somewhat mis-shapen, overweight but carry it well, long, very fine brown hair to the small of my back that could use a trim. roundish face and if you look closely you can see the native american. My skin has the faintest of green hues (not kidding!), but otherwise I look caucasian. I look younger than I am. My only attractive feature is I have a perfect nose.

I'm 5'4, mexican, medium light skinned, 125 lbs, curly dark brown hair with semi-blonde highlights, high cheek bones, dark brown eyes, square shaped face. My attached ears seem to be very small, at least in my opinion. At least they are small in a good, petite sort of way.

I'm 5'10", I have thinning brown hair (going gray at the temples and beard) and brown eyes, and terrible posture. I either have a full beard or a goatee depending on whether my daughter is allowing me enough time to shave. I wear glasses. Apparently I look like some other people, since I've been "recognized" numerous times by people I'd never met, including in London, where I apparently look like someone moderately well known (Someone looked at me, was startled, smiled, waved, pointed me out to his friend, who also looked startled, and waved... Weird...)
Oh, and apparently my wrists bend in weird ways (I can touch my fingers to my inner arm without stress, but find it difficult to support my weight with my hands facing outward.)

I'm 6'1, 220 ibs. Brown hair, very large hands and feet, wide shoulders, heavy build etc. Normal objects appear to be like toys when I hold them, and the checkout people never offer me help with my groceries, or if they do, they always laugh.
edit: My facebook friends can confirm this by looking at me standing next to my *normal* sized friends, who appear to be very small people.

I'm 5'10", 165ish lbs. And though I'm at a pretty healthy weight and I've lost a lot the past couple years, I still look and feel kinda flabby. I suppose I just haven't burned enough fat to trim it all down. (My metabolism is atrocious to boot ) In any case, I feel like I don't look good in any clothes because I have broad shoulders and chest, and thick leg muscles....I inherited them from my father, and it makes me a very good sprinter.
I have long hair (for a guy, btw), and it's straight and black. It's all the same length and I like to leave it loose so it goes past my shoulders. Kinda wish it was thicker though.
I'm half Italian, so my skin is a pale yellowy shade, and can get oily pretty quickly. My eyes change colors randomly, from hazel to green. I have a medium-sized nose. Though sometimes I think it's kind of big, I much prefer the nose I have to one that might be oddly shaped
Oh, and my mouth: I've been told that I have extremely soft, shiny lips. And my trademark feature, an ever-so-tiny chip in my left-front tooth. I think it's kind of cute, and I love to lick it with my tongue ^_^

I'm 5'8". I'm not slim but about 25 lbs overweight that has deposited itself mostly on my hips, backside, and chest. I don't like that part, but Matt says I have a delightfully feminine figure.
My hair is light brown with golden and auburn highlights and lowlights. I have an oval face, big blue eyes that usually hidden behind glasses, and full lips that are my favorite feature. My nose is slightly crooked from when I was a kid, and I have freckles that are easily hidden by makeup but come out in the summer.
Am I pretty? Not normally, but I've stopped rooms before when dolled up. I think I have the raw materials that when appropriately adjusted I become very striking, but on regular days the part of me that's pretty is my hair.

I'm 6' and 130 lbs. I'm much more muscular on my stomach, hips, legs, and so forth than in my upper body (which is kind of, well, "soft"), but I'm working on that. I'm naturally dirty blonde, but everyone says that red looks much better on me. I've been dying my hair red for five years, so I wonder how many of these people have just never seen me as a blonde. My hair right now is what I'd describe as "pumpkin pie cinnamon," and it's a little longer than the tops of my shoulders.
I have eyes that are generally blue, though some people think they're more green or grey. I also have scoliosis, giving me a slightly warped rib cage...so at the bottom of my ribs one side is shaped a little differently than the other. But apparently no one ever notices it but me (even when I'm in a swimsuit), so I'm not really self-conscious about it anymore, and most of the time I don't even think about it.
I'm really, really, ridiculously pale, and my underlying skin coloration is yellow/orange (thanks, Prescriptives!), and I have freckles. Instead of tanning, I get more freckles. I have what I like to call a baby face, but my little brother just used to call me fat face when we were little. I've got cheeks, in other words. I have nice skin and teeth, supposedly. But when I was my natural haircolor, everyone told me that I looked unhealthily pale and needed a tan, and my skin looked a lot more red. But since I was 16 back then, maybe I just was having teenage skin issues. Who knows?

5' 11". Um, white skin, blue eyes, brown hair. I wear glasses, small square shaped frames. I am maybe 10-20 pounds underweight (depends on the day of the week it is). I have a bit of razor burn/acne leftovers. Short cropped hair because A) I have too (military) and B) I have too (If I let it grow long the oils cause zits to grow on the back of my neck). I am told my redeeming feature is...I'm actually embarrassed to mention it...my butt. I don't think anything of it, I'm just saying what I have been told by a few of my exgf's. Oh, I have also been told I look good in camouflage.
And Just a side bit, Pearce is HOTT. Mike is so lucky.

I'm five foot seven and slender, but not underweight (anymore). I have dead straight mid-brown hair with a little wispy fringe and hazel eyes. My skin is greyer than usual (charming, eh?) and prone to pimples, grumble.
I have large eyes, dark eyebrows and a nose that is a little too big on the end but could otherwise be described as a turned-up kind of nose. I have a square strong jaw and teeth that will be perfect once I get my braces off.
And I cannot raise one eyebrow. Posts: 8473 | Registered: Apr 2003

I love that movie! The only thing I'll say about my physical appearance is that I have really dark brown hair. People think I dye my hair this color, but no it's natural; even my own dad asked me the other day if I had dyed my hair.

I'm 5'6" and considerably overweight, but I also have a large frame and people say I don't look like I weigh anywhere near as much as I actually do. I have a heart-shaped face, very pale skin, and brown eyes that tilt up a little at the corners. My hair is many shades of brown, mostly towards the lighter end, straight and fine, down to about the middle of my back, and I have bangs. I'm told I look a bit like a Vulcan, because of the bangs, the shape of my eyebrows, and the INTJ's natural impassivity.

I'm tall for a Chinese/Vietnamese girl(Yay!) but that still leaves me at 5'5". Average weight (but unusually/surprisingly squishy, thus the SN), straight long black hair, and brown eyes. I look awfully mean when I don't smile and presentable when I do. In casual clothes, I've had someone mistake me for a high school girl (I'm *this* close to 23!!!). I can pull off my real age in work clothes, thankfully. Unusually tiny nose. I've been called hot, cute, sexy, ugly, average, confused, sweet, under-aged and boring (-looking). So I think I've covered most of the bases. Doesn't help much, does it?

I'm somewhere between 5'7" and 5'9", depending on who you ask. I'm Caucasian and rather freckly. I'm sort of short and stocky. I weigh between 150 and 160lbs, but I'm not at all over weight. I'm a swimmer so it's very nearly all muscle. My brother describes me as having the upside down triangle shape swimmers tend to get, I don't really see it much... maybe a little. My forearms and legs are very hairy, almost furry, my legs especially. The rest of me not especially so -- head aside.
I have dark brown hair, about shoulder length, usually back in a pony tail. I wear a beard most of them time, it's scraggly and not well kept. It spawns from my intense dislike of shaving. When it's longer it becomes apparent that the apparently brown stubble in fact is streaked with red. Mostly around the chin. It varies in length from no beard to full beard and back again. I generally shave it one every month and a half. Right now it's a short full beard. My eyes vary in color, they're usually described as hazel, but they literally switch from medium brown to bright green depending on the day. There isn't any pattern to it that I've been able to discern. My face is rather round and boyish. Made to appear less so when the beard is long, but only a little. I wear very large glasses, of the bendable titanium alloy sort. They're rather old and battered, but they still work. They're a bit too big for my face.
My head and body don't go together well. I've always felt during swim season that there is a disconnect between my body -- clearly a swimmer's, and my head -- clearly a cheerful geek's.

I'm half Indian, quarter black and a quarter carribean. I'm at 5'8" right now and weigh about 130 lbs. My body is sorta weird, my legs are medium sized but very thin. However, my upper body is fairly big and I have very wide shoulders. I got really thin wrists, and my skin is a medium brown. In the summer it turns almost black. My hair is really thick, but not very long. It's black, and it is so thick that I can't comb it at all, I have to use a hat to get it in any discernible hair style. I got really long eyelashes, probably from my mom's side of the family. They give my a really childish look because I got huge pupils and those eyelashes. I work out for about 2 hours every day and a lot of my weight is muscle, even though it doesn't look like it when I have a shirt on. I've been told I have a swimmer's body, because of the broad shoulders and thin waist but I have never taken up the sport.

I am 30ish. If I am not in my usual pretend i'm not in the room slouch I stand about 5'9" I weigh approximately 220, so I definitly could stand to lose some weight. A deal of my weight is in beefy muscular legs shaped by many walked miles and an insatiable need to bounce, kick or participate in some other insidious fidgeting when im sitting. Yes, that guy on the bus or in the meeting that drives you insane is me. So physique is somewhat toned legs supporting cookie dough.
I make no claim to any degree of attractiveness. I have pale oily pimply skin that rarely tans even after being severely burnt. My brown eyes always seem to appear small because they are hidden behind unreasonably thick glasses. I think the small eyes give me a decidedly cold look, despite the many smile lines my face has collected from laughing. I brood sometimes but usually I have a little smirk that makes me look like an idiot. Wavy when short and quite curly when long, my brown hair (with smatterings of errant gray hair :| ) is dark enough to appear black when wet. For some reason people often mistake me for being considerably younger than I am; 5-7 years in the extreme cases. Although I hope they are judging based more on looks than personality I have a sneaky little hunch that is not the case.

I have blue eyes and wheat-coloured hair down to my backside, which is currently more well-upholstered than I'd wish. White streaks at temples, goofy grin, crunched-up toes, and a habit of furrowing my brow. I also press my lips together and jut out my chin firmly unless I make note consciously not to. Big feet. Big, big feet. Average height for a woman (5 foot 5 and a half), generally soft-spoken, rather sedate. Can kick a plate held over my head but can't hear worth a darn. However, spotless ear canals.

I'm 5 feet, 5 inches... My hair's light brown with a little red... I've got blue eyes that are pretty light colored and get even lighter in the sun... I've played sports my whole life so I've never been really skinny, definitely an athletic build... Sometimes I wear glasses, usually wear contacts... I've got freckles, but not a million... I'm sort of olive colored, I guess that must come from the Czech part of me and I tan pretty well... I've got a bunch of ear piercings... My lips are regular size, not huge but definitely there... And my nose is straight and a little thin... I think that's about it...

I'm around 5'9"-10" and 138-140lbs give or take a bit. I have light blonde hair and eyes that shift between dark blue and grey. My hair is longer right now, almost to my shoulders, but it's getting cut soon so as to balance with the bangs, which are shorter. I have piano fingers. My skin is light, but not super-pale anymore. I have a long scar wrapping a third of the way around my left forearm.

5'10", brown hair, brown eyes, weigh 175 which makes me curvy indeed. I have Marilyn Monroe's body but none of her pretty face and none of her charisma.
Also my feet are huge.

5'9"; weight is nunyabizness (but more than I'd like); wavy brown hair (which almost no one on this forum has seen more than a few wisps of); hazel eyes (which really do change color depending on my mood, degree of awakeness, and what I'm wearing). Fairly good skin (although aren't the zits supposed to be completely gone in one's thirties, not just mostly gone? ) and lashes that naturally need no mascara. Stereotypically Jewish nose (thanks, Grandma).

I am 5'8" or so. I tend to think I'm pretty proportional to that height, tending a little to the heavier side. Breasts are also proportional to my size - not very small, not huge.
I have dark hair, not black but could be mistaken for under poor lighting. It falls an inch or two below my chin. It's not straight, but not curly either. It's destressingly wavy, not an organised or neat wavy.
I have brown eyes and my nose is slightly "Italian" but tempered by my mother's more British features. I have small hands, with my ring finger being a size 5. I also have small feet, as small as a size 6 1/2, depending on the model.
My skin isn't dark, and actually it's a bit pale, but does have an olive tinge to it that I get from my father.
I'm still fairly young, so I lack many wrinkles or sags. My ears are pierced, and I wear glasses for near-sightedness.
I have a scar on my right ankle, and on my right index knuckle. No tattoos.
