A friend and I were recently commenting on how particular nationalities seem to have generally more brilliant smiles than others. Though it may appear many Americans have cheerleader perfect smiles and more specifically TEETH... The question is - "Is it fake or legit??" At the bottom of this post is a link to test your own people watching skills and your ability to read into a smile... But back to what I was saying..
Maybe it's not just the USA that have great teeth, what about Australians or the Swedes? Do these nations have a 'Perfect smile government payment plan" for dental or do some American's save from birth to afford effective dental work & braces at a young age in aim to have the picture perfect grin? Any ideas? Did you have braces? This "JAWS" look-a-like has had some serious work done... He must be Russian? (no offense to our Russian friends!)
My deduction is... thanks to the plethora of cheap PixiFoto style portrait booths they seem to have everywhere in US shopping centers at very affordable rates... kids have to get use to posing. Well that's my excuse anyway. As a 'yankee' kid you know you're in for a "sit down, shut up & cheese" session at least once a year so GRIN AND BARE IT (pun intended) and you might as well get good at it!
But back to the cheerleader... if only they were a every day common part of our culture here in Oz we certainly would have a lot of fun with it. Right fellas? We obviously don't need a bunch of pretty chicky babes to help us cheer our teams on, but some males may argue it helps. I love this shot cause even though 2 of these gals have their legs in casts they're smiling and placed perfectly on the outskirts of the photo! Genius!

I've got plenty more research to pull out on this topic, but will stop at this link where you, the El Rancho Relaxo visitor can go an do a psych test on how good you are on guessing whether some one's smile is real or fake. .click here ..I got 13/20... not too bad I reckon... how about you? Bring on the comments...
Love your favourite POSER...

hey sister. i got 13 out of 20 too...thought I would be worst than that though.
This is the post you've been researching Kymbo!? Smiles and cheerleaders - what on earth are you on about?
I'd certainly welcome more cheerleaders on El Rancho! But that's about as far as I'd go.
how bad can one team possibly be to have two broken legs?!... haha love it!
14 out of 20 isn't bad huh. especially when the more i do it the more i feel i'm not doing so good on the test. interesting Kym! this kinda post makes me come back to rancho... of course, apart from checking if the Jakarta clock still ticking!
