The Helen

In 1987, a new standard by which we might measure beauty was proposed. It was deemed the old-fashioned method of judging beauty in a beauty pageant was not quite objective enough. The helen was proposed as the new standard.

It should be noted that Helen of troy was beautiful enough to launch a thouand ships. Granted ships were smaller back then, but still she must have been a beautiful women. A woman beautiful enough to launch just a single ship in this system should be deserving of a millihelen. as she is 1/1000th as beautiful as Helen of Troy.
