According to theories of attraction related to evolution, you are partially right. Youth signifies health and the ability to healthily give birth to a baby. That is why a lot of men like blondes and why so many women dye their hair. Blonde hair is associated with youth, because many blondes are so at a young age but turn brunnette or a darker shade with age. In Japanese culture, the snaggletooth has made its way into women's beauty and females are paying $400 or so to get them, because they are associated with youth.
Still, according to related theories, curves are considered beautiful because they signify a woman's maturatation past adolescence where she can carry babies in her womb. The better hip to waist ratio (larger hips to smaller waist) the more fertile a woman is. Neither of these girls have much in terms of curves.
Because bad teeth are considered unhealthy in American culture, I doubt the snaggletooth fad will ever cross the pacific into our territory. In the same way, I think youth can be the basis for attraction, but only as far as science dictates based off the acceptanced stances in our culture. So, I rather have a curvy woman than a woman that appears to be 12 or 13 any day.

You only had to say a name...

I edited my post, because I was actually opening up a conversation based on a comment made by another user, but didn't know how to include his post (I thought I simply had to hit the respond button on his post, but now I realize I am supposed to hit quote first).
I answered the question in a post earlier, but it wasn't limited to a name. Sorry for including my reasoning and thinking this was a place for discussion. Oops, there I go again with multiple word responses...
