外貌协会 wàimào xiéhuì

Meaning:

“外貌” means “looks,” and “协会” means “club.” This phrase has the same pronunciation as “外贸协会” (foreign trade association), and is coined jokingly to refer to those who are obsessed with good looks. If you are one of the “good-looks club,” you will require your boyfriend or girlfriend to look good and dress up stylish, caring little for his or her other virtues.

Example:

A: 昨晚我又去相亲了。

Zuówǎn wǒ yòu qù xiāngqīn le。

I went on a blind date again yesterday evening.

B: 怎么样？

Zěnmeyàng?

How was it?

A: 这女孩是外貌协会的。明明跟我吃饭，眼睛不停地看路过的帅哥。

Zhè nǚhái shì wàimào xiéhuì de。Míngmíng gēn wǒ chīfàn, yǎnjīng bùtíng de kàn lùguò de shuàigē。

The girl was in the “good-looks club.” She was having dinner with me, but her eyes were set upon the handsome guys who walked past us.

B: 你们下次还见面吗？

Nǐmen xiàcì hái jiànmiàn ma?

Will you see her again?

A: 我还想再约她试试。

Wǒ hái xiǎng zài yuē tā shìshi。

I want to ask her out and give it another try.

B: 为什么？

Wèi shénme?

Why?

A: 她很靓啊。

Tā hěn liàng a。

Because she is very pretty.

B: 原来你也是外貌协会的。

Yuánlái nǐ yěshì wàimào xiéhuì de。

So you too are from the “good-looks club.”
