i am asking this question because most people think indian women wear a bindhi and sit at home and make curry and it is a wrong assumption

It depends on the part of the world you are referring to. Different areas have different standards of beauty, and even those standards change from era to era.
You might be reading too much western/european influence into your standards. Brazil is a latin/spanish-ized country, and therefore the influence of europe (and its readily identifiable culture) is strongly inherent within its 'standards'. Also, the tropical local (as opposed to colder weather systems in Europe and US) lends an aura of mystique and exotique to the personification. What is further away from ourselves seems more beautiful (the grass is always greener....)
But I think it might be the perception of vast cultural and spiritual differences that prevent people from thinking of Indian women as being 'beautiful'. Also, Indian women might be perceived to be of a 'darker' skin tone, which has european connotations of 'evil' or 'bad'. But all generalizations are just that; generalizations. Anyone who places undue importance (whether as a positive or negative) only helps perpetuate them.

I think that Indian women have intelligence and beauty yet women from VENEZUELA are the personification of beauty.

Because Indian women stink of cow dung and armpit odor.
YUCK!! Take a plunge in the Ganges River.

Why do you keep asking questions that are pertaining to one's outer beauty? Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I would rather see and know a person who has inner beauty and soul than someone who is just concerned about their looks.

After reading all your immature questions I really think you should just hang out with your India friends because we do not agree with your comments. In fact maybe you should just go to India and stay there... Brazilan women blow India women away with beauty and intelligence.... So get off the comments about Spanish Women...........You will not win in anyway...

Brazilian women are just gorgeous. Perhaps its the genetic pool. They are all colors and races and they are simply beautiful.
