Zev or Xev

well, technically speaking, Eva wasn’t much more than a little girl when she filmed the movies. Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t she only about 19 or 20 at the time? Xenia has some years on her in that department, as I believe it was pointed out by someone else earlier (nwmoniker?).
I’m going to go with FX on the female population preferring Eva and the male population preferring Xenia because of the differences in their respective beauty. I can’t say that I prefer one over the other because I think they’re both goddesses in their own right, but I do have a fondness for Eva’s sweet appearance. Then again, I also have a fondness for Xenia’s kick-ass appearance. Eva looks like she’s about to kiss you even when she’s screaming at you while Xenia looks like she’s going to break your neck even when she’s seducing you.
Like I said, I think both are very attractive, and like FX said, Eva portrays Zev as very innocent while Xenia portrays Xev as very raw. If you think about it, it works really really well, especially the way they set up the whole storyline with Zev becoming Xev. Can you imagine Zev having confrontations with Prince? While we all appreciate that they are supposed to be basically the same person, in the end they are different personalities. Who knows how Zev would have evolved had she remained Zev and not had to become Xev. Good thing I’m typing this and not saying this or there would be a whole lot of confusion, eh?
As to Eva looking like a little girl… HA! I can only wish I looked like that. I have a year or two on her from when she was in those movies (I’m 21) and she looked at least four or five years older when she was 19 or 20 than what I look like right now. Course, most people assume I’m between the ages of 16-19. That’s ok, though, because when I’m 35 and still getting carded, I’ll be greatful for having gotten stuck with the permanent baby face.

I’d have to say that I never held much of an attraction for innocent acting women, I’ve always prefered that they have strength. I guess that would be another reason for me prefering Xev.
