Wade, FHM originally stood for For Him Magazine, though I like to say that it stands for For Horny Men. ;)
Rock, I'm saying most men don't understand just how much manipulation (digital and otherwise) and effort go into making those women look as beautiful as they seem. Not only are they heavily made up, but they are shot under ideal lighting conditions and have blemishes airbrushed out. Often their actual shapes and proportions are altered digitally. Photographers shoot many hundreds of pictures to get those one or two that capture that elusive moment in which she looks amazing.
Many women in your everyday life, as long as they take decent care of themselves, are just as attractive as the stars we idolize as paragons of beauty. We just don't see it because we take them for granted.

Oh, yeah, in that case, I totally agree. To be honest, in most cases, I don't get the obsession with stars.
I mean, some are quite hot, but the obsession about the Kardashian sisters, while we have at least 5 people hotter at the place I work always amazes me. I wonder what percentage of men actually think they're amazingly hot and what percentage is just going with the trend, because it's the cool thing to do right now.
Don't get me wrong, Kim Kardashian is quite good looking on
some photos, but not miles ahead of anyone here.
Then again, pictures without knowing the person always do little for me. I don't have anything with socialites and couldn't care less about their reality program, so I know very little about her.
