I would say that if anything women at Penn are more attractive than at your average institution, but anyway that's not the point. Anyone looking to find true satisfaction in some unrealistic, unhealthy standard, rather than in actual companionship, is going to be sorely disappointed. Penn men who feel this way should stop complaining and realize the problem is within themselves. Women are not superficial objects existing for your pleasure and to be scrutinized like you would a painting. They are people. Be man enough to treat them like it.

"Penn women aren't any less attractive than girls at any other school..." Most Penn guys would disagree with this assessment.
