I'll tell you one thing, I was at the Arnold and was fortunate to meet some great people, men and women at all different weight classes both in competition and in their "off season". I'm not saying whether or not facial beauty or overall presentation should be judged, but I can't help but to say that the women who were more attractive in the face and had an overall package were more pleasing to the eye.
For example, IMO the lightweight winner (#3, blonde, right in the comparison) looks way better overall than the other do. I might be bias though because I cannot critique a woman's body without taking into account the sexual appeal aspect, which is largely influenced by overall presentation and facial beauty.
I'm just putting my spin on things, maybe the judges are influenced in the same way. Just a thought.
