Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder

[TheKingDavis]

agree?

[Bougainvillea]

I'm pretty sure everyone does :P

[Sage]

Pretty much, though there are some things that a vast majority of people (not all) agree upon more than others.

[Sugaree]

Well, yes. This statement is true because everyone's standards on beauty differ. I agree with the statement.

[TheKingDavis]

we had a huge discussion about this is advanced english

[BuryYourFlame]

To a certain extent, there are certain characteristics that others will find more appealing, but we can't deny that some people are unattractive to everyone. hmmm, I'm normally pretty hesitant to say 'everyone', but hmmm, oh well :P

[Sage]

A lot of people in my area think blond hair and tans are sexy on girls, but personally I've always been into really pale chicks with black hair. Ima freak. : P

[enzenzz]

yes, but i think there is also natural beauty that everyone can appreciate.

[Sage]

Like?

[Stevo 69]

agree, there will be at least one of your friends that thinks he's in love with the most beautiful person, and you and the rest of your mates might think that person is ugly.

All based on opinion

[Death]

That's pretty much true. In general, people will find certain things more beautiful than others but people will still think differently to others and can go to te extent of certain people finding someting beautiful wheras others find it utterly repulsive. So yes, 'beauty' can be a subjective term.

[INFERNO]

The only objective definition of beauty is that it's something that certain people like. What each person sees as beauty is completely subjective. I suppose one can argue that certain people may like what the person can do or what they can do to the person and so that would be an exception to the idea of "natural beauty". I guess this depends though on whether one allows the definition of beauty to be limited to simply "natural beauty" meaning the person has characteristics that others find attractive or "artificial beauty" meaning the person does something to themselves to make them attractive to others.

While I do agree with the concept of "natural beauty", I'm a bit confused as to what you mean by it's something everyone can appreciate. What people find to be beautiful varies drastically so as far as I can tell, there's no one characteristic that every single person would find beautiful. Care to explain?

[Sugaree]

yes, but i think there is also natural beauty that everyone can appreciate.

Define "natural beauty". What specific type of "natural beauty" are you referring too? Beauty that can be found in the world around us, or beauty in other human beings? Further explination would be a help here.

[JackOfClubs]

I do agree. Everyone has different tastes.
