    When you start applying this concept when looking at people you will soon realize beautiful people look very alike.. I live in a country full of attractive people and sometimes I feel like I'm looking at the same attractive woman or man one and over again.. it gets boring.

      It's usually like that if you find certain physical qualities to make a person very attractive and I can actually relate to that as well because I have a certain type that I find attractive with a certain set of physical traits so naturally those people with those exact traits are gonna look somewhat similar to each other. But I can find others attractive too especially with an awesome personality that really shines through.

      Josefine Lea There is only so much that one can aggregate subjectively to the quality of beauty after you have educated to identify attractive traits, as Jhon said in the video, even babies were choosing the most attractive individuals, it is in our genes not in our eyes. About personalities that 'shine through', I really don't see that at all neither, in fact, every day I meet a new individual I sense a remarkable similarity with other people I've met, within same or alike cultures often you will notice it, this is due to an evident loss of individuality for the greater good of the community which is becoming part of the collective. Let's face it, attractive and not attractive people are all the same inside, but in the outside society will make sure the attractive ones stay on top of the game and be rewarded for their inherent beauty traits.

It's like they are lying to you.

  • @fghhna

    When I was younger (I am 28 now), some people used to say that I was "handsome". And indeed from the age of 18 to about 23-24 I had been getting enough attention from girls (literally some girls would approach me on the street to ask for my phone number). Unfortunately, I was filled with social anxiety, unconfidence and some other mental handicaps which prevented me from having a healthy and sociable life. And as years passed through I gradually lost what has been "handsome" in me and became almost ugly, as I see my reflection now in the mirror. Neither did I fix my mental problems. The moral is (if there could be any in my story) that it's preferable that you have a healthy exterior as well as interior to be able to have lived a full life.

    Very interesting video. But I always thought "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" was referencing preferences like being attracted to Blondes/Redheads/Latina/Asian/Skinny/Voluptuous. I'm sure people attracted to Emma Watson are not going to be into Pamela Anderson as much.

      @ShatteredDiscoBall 6 лет назад +57

      I think not being attracted to someone is different than finding them unattractive if that makes sense lol. I think what you're getting at is preference. Like how you can be straight but think someone of the same sex is good looking without being attracted. It comes down to aesthetics/facial symmetry and that's why plastic surgeons/patients try to attain that. So people with less symmetry are not as attractive to most.

Pouty lips and "strong" chins add nothing to a relationship or a person's humanity or intellect or usefulness.

  • @josefinebliss2801
    @josefinebliss2801 6 лет назад +554

    Then explain how some beautiful people are seen as unattractive to some and less beautiful people are attractive to at least someone? There's lots of famous men considered hot that I don't find very attractive like Leo DiCaprio and Ryan Gosling.. Sure they're not ugly and they're fantastic actors but I have seen better looking men. Explain that. Plus it happens often that people find someone attractive due to their personality and confidence or humor.

    • @mishaslilbae828
      @mishaslilbae828 6 лет назад +117

      Well from the second judgement you can see people have a much larger difference in preference. And I do think Leo is good looking but not the best looking, hence the difference in taste. And personality really do matter of course, since you become repusled by awful people. A 10/10 can fall straight down to a 0/10 if the person is nasty

  • @smylyface
    @smylyface 6 лет назад +465

    If everyone found the same facial shapes and body types attractive then only those shapes and types would exist. Genetically, over the course of time, characteristics people are not attracted to would be bred out because those considered unattractive wouldn't find love and reproduce. The fact that these various facial features and body types still exist are proof that beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder. Symmetry doesn't appeal to everyone.

      @bonhll8070 6 лет назад +54

      The reason that doesn’t happen is because of genetic mutations and cultural shifts.
      For example, in the 18th century France there was a device, (that looked like a clothes pin) that women would use to get rid of their “button nose” and make it sloop downwards.
      Beauty standards change.

    This man just wants to promote his medical office. We are all fed by the media to believe what is attractive as well. 20 years ago, mainstream media didn't care about big butts, and now they are everywhere. Also, blond and blue eyed isn't now just the standard of beauty and facial hair on men is also seen as attractive but before, a clean shaved face was the standard. This is just the media feeding us. Form your own opinions. That is attractive.

      Big butts were always popular in black communities. Particularly black American, African countries and Caribbean people.

And you’re absolutely right, what we consider beautiful is always ALWAYS changing.

    @StrawberryNinjaNibbles 6 лет назад +117

    I doubt many will bother to read this but I feel like writing it anyway.
    While I do agree that there are features & qualities that most will deem universally beautiful, whether conscious of it or not, I think this oversimplifies beauty a bit.
    If I’m recalling the same study that he referenced (which I believe I am) they did not properly account for facial expression nor eye size, things that strongly influence the way faces are perceived. (I think there is a study indicating children look at faces with larger eyes longer/more frequently than those with smaller eyes.)
    In the study he mentioned, It was also just assumed that the babies were looking at the more attractive faces because they were attractive, yet there is no way of knowing this is what the babies thought... why the specific faces chosen were considered attractive/not attracted was not fully explained (e.g., were more symmetrical, had x feature etc.?), it was based on the researchers’ subjective opinion of attractiveness & then they assumed that was the reason behind the babies’ gaze. Additionally, I believe they only used straight-on photos, no angled shots (like the drawings he showed) or profile-only pictures. Given how important he said ones profile is in evaluating attractiveness, I wonder if the babies would still look at the more attractive profile/angle, given the decreased visibility of the person’s eyes in the photo.... I really think the attractiveness/visibility of the persons eyes had a sway on where the babies looked. I wonder if one has only so-so eyes but the rest of the face has beautiful features, will the babies still look? Would they look at an average/ugly face, but has beautiful eyes more than other faces? Would they look at an ugly face that is smiling more/longer than a beautiful face that has a neutral expression? I feel like the study could go further & that would be interesting to read about.
    There are other things I wanted to say but this comment is already long lol

    • @Sanjinator1
      @Sanjinator1 6 лет назад +21

Some of you may have different facial preferences but the vast majority are attracted to a strong jawline, high cheek bones, small nose, symmetrical face, fit body, etc. It’s just nature. Get over it, there are always things you can do to make yourself more attractive.

    This doesn't really make sense. Look, I understand some faces are more proportionate than others and thus considered to be more "attractive" but from general life experience that does not mean You are instantaneously attracted to those deemed as such. I for example have seen( as many of you have ) soo many of these attractive men and women on social media, that have not caught my attention for more than a few seconds but have also encountered, what some would say lesser beautiful or average looking people, that I found to be good looking if not even attractive in my eyes, and they didn't have as many followers or didn't get as much attention from people. So I came to the conclusion that yes, "beauty" Is in fact in the eye of the beholder, as I am not as attracted to so called '"beautiful" people, especially not the perfect looking ones. I don't know why, it's just how it is for me.

      This is exactly what I was thinking. People like what they like and ultimately you cannot predict what every single person likes, thus "beauty is in the eye of the beholder".
      You might be able to predict what a lot or most people like but you can't do that for all people.
      Beauty is not only what others may find attractive but what you find attractive. That's it. Which one you value more as defining the standard, other opinions or your own opinion, is ultimately up to you in the end.
      No one has given me any good reasons that disprove this idea as of yet and this video certainly didn't make a difference to my opinion.
      This guy right here completely misses or ignores the point. He is trying to set the tone for humanity as a whole with beauty standards he has deemed the most popular amongst people right now. Whilst doing so, he forgets that the point of the statement itself and that you can't make a sweeping statement like he has in this video about beauty and expect it to account for every single person.

      people have different sparks in their eyes and different mimic while they comunicate , those 2 play a HUGE role in attractiveness , then theres minor other indicators like skin quality , hair quality and outfit which can modify attractiveness ,
      a VER HUGE role is actually in the hairstyle , every person has some hairstyles and "forms" which either underline their bueaty or undermine it

They look nothing like a Barbie. What about all the beautiful women with crooked noses? The ones that look unique and beautiful? Videos like these seem to focus on European features only and tend to call non European features “ugly”

      Brickcellent everyone being beautiful in their own way is a fact. This has nothing to do with women. Everyone has a different taste. You can’t just point at certain facial features and pretend someone can only be beautiful if they have exactly those features. This is stupid and the reason why so many young girls have low self esteem. We are told by media that being “pretty” means having light skin, small button noses and thin bodies. As I said, these are mostly European features and not even all European girls have those features. There’s so many different types of women and they’re all beautiful.

    If you pay attention to the main actors in movies, tv, etc., you will notice that they almost always have a protracted mandible that lines up with their nose, wide smile, and wider-set eyes, especially women (eg. Margot Robbie). This seems to be the ideal. Further, the antagonists will often not fit into this standard. They'll have retracted jaws, narrower eyes, flatter cheeks, narrower jawlines (eg. Michael Emerson in Lost). I see this over and over. No wonder the majority of people don't feel they 'measure up,' as it were, to this beauty standard.

    Man, talking about children vs. adults makes SO MUCH SENSE... Children prefer "pretty" faces, because they look nicer and trustworthy and they do not know any better. I've been once on a video about some triplets, rghey were women. The narrator called them beautiful several times, but the comment section was divided. Their faces were ok, but they looked like oily burned plastic dolls on most of the pictures. Another thing is cultural standards: if you ask white males to rate chinesse women, most of them would say that all/most of them are beautiful. But if you ask someone who has lived among chinesse people for a longer period of time or is chinesse, they will tell you that half of them were ugly. There is also a buzzfeed video with koreans in it (I guess). people were telling that they're pretty, but they were not. They were average looking and one of them was really ugly, but they STILL said otherwise. I guess people are just blind.

They ARE ugly, BUT they have a beautiful soul, they are very strong to deal with what an unfavourable face brought them, and they are definitely more preferable than people who look pretty but have an evil soul. We just have to learn that beauty in the soul is far more important than beauty on the face.

How do you explain why some people prefer goths over conventional popular girls? Or why people find people from certain races more attractive than others depending on preference? The fact that everyone disagrees on what is beautiful shows that it's in the eye of the beholder.

      Shao Yu Mai Wang Its like you're responding to myself and the OP as if we're the same person there. The OP never said that they found face A more attractive, just that people would have done.

    • @alexhodgkinson6718
      @alexhodgkinson6718 6 лет назад +10

      Shao Yu Mai Wang aye but what of people of different cultures? For example, there's whole communities of men obsessed with Japanese women, who have completely different facial structure to other cultures. I know that I find women more attractive who have cuter, more petite faces, whereas the majority agree on a more hawk shape, I've noticed.
      Just from the fact that I don't find face A the most attractive at all is proof on its own against the theory that everyone finds the same things attractive. It just can't work. If you were to admit that there are exceptions to the rule, then sure, but if there are exceptions to the rule then beauty MUST be in the eye of the beholder.
      In fact, just by you saying that people find more obtainable people attractive is proof against this theory. People psychologically find potential partners who are more obtainable and fit with them in other areas. If this holds true, then beauty is in the eye of the beholder. As is your make up analogy. If someone were to find a goth woman more attractive because if make up and attire to a more conventionally attractive woman, then *in his eyes* she is more attractive due to this. This means that in this case beauty *would* be in the eye of the beholder.
      And this is all based on the idea that the phrase means on a physical attractiveness scale, when it's meant to encompass a person's entire being.
      So, to conclude, I'd say that using facial shape as the be all end all of beauty is incorrect. If you're looking to disprove the 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder' saying, you'd have to look at more than just facial shape, because there's more to it than that. To disprove this saying, you'd have to come to the conclusion that everyone agrees on who the most attractive man and woman are on the planet. But as long as there are exceptions to these rules, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, by definition.

    What I gathered from this video is, when it comes to attractiveness there is a prototype which statistically is considered the most preferred type, however it doesn't mean it would appeal to a particular individual because people have different tastes. But even then, these individuals wouldn't be able to deny that the conventional beauty archtype is not attractive.
    Example: Superman might be the most powerful comic book hero and a lot of people will agree to it but still they will have their own favourite heroes who appeal to them more.

    Yes but haven't there also been studies that show that people are more attracted to those who have faces that have some similarity to themselves. There was a study that showed composites of a person's face with their own and people usually were more attracted to the composite than the original. And men with blue eyes are more attracted to women with blue eyes. I'll comment links if I can find sources. I'm not sure if it is because we are looking for faces that are comfortable and familiar or if we are trying to make sure our own genes are visible in our offspring.
    Other studies have found that the most average faces are to most attractive. After taking composite photos of many women the more images added to the photo the more people consider the photo to be of an attractive woman. Avg eye size. Avg mouth size. Nose, face length, and width. Finding a person like that outside of a computer simulation is almost impossible.
    Symmetry is a marker of health, but subtle asymmetry can also be beautiful.
    I'd say that you just have to look around to tell that beauty can be subjective. How many times do you see people drooling over someone and you have no idea what they are finding so attractive about them? And same time adults can be conditioned to accept a certain standard of beauty or recognize certain markers of beauty. Just look at magazines and how beauty changes through time. And how standards very by country.

    If someone is found attractive by majority of people then they’re attractive. Everyone has a type but they can still tell if someone is attractive or not. Some people may find Dolan twins ugly because they don’t like their bicycle seat shaped jaws but can still tell they attract a lot of girls and some may find Kpop boys ugly because they like more masculine men but at the same time can tell they’ve got really pretty faces. So some people are just beautiful but it’s more of a matter of which type of beauty they prefer.

    Some “ugly” people have found love and they’re very happy. Besides, if you’re so-called ugly, then you weed out all the people who only like you for your body or your face. Strong relationships go way deeper than mere looks. I don’t know about you but I’ve definitely been attracted to guys who were not, “attractive.” There have also been guys who were supposedly “attractive” who I was not attracted to at all. I don’t know if I’ve conditioned myself to be more attracted to gives who would be attracted to me, but whatever it is, I do not believe that this “universal” standard of beauty is as universal as some make it seem. Otherwise, no one without a certain appearance would find love.

      also, just because it takes personal statement to decide something is beautiful or not,it doesnt prove that beauty is subjective,for example math was first founded by a person,does it mean math is subjective? does it mean 1+1 is subjective? does it mean 1+1 can be 5 then? no!

      Katie Waity Actually, it does directly impact your physical health. If your face goes downward enough, your airway starts to become smaller. Eventually, it can lead to sleep apnea. Another direct impact on health is crooked teeth, tooth crowding, and malocclusion. Also, these facial features generally correlate with bad habits, and those bad habits can have a direct impact on your physical health.
      Also, we learn habits from our parents. If we "inherit" bad looks from our parents, despite optimal conditions, this could have very well been because we copied their bad habits.

    Some people don't seem to understand the point being made. He isn't talking about taste. Taste is a conditioned preference. He's talking more about the unconditioned preference we have for faces with a certain shape. Objectively(not subjectively) attractive people are instinctually seen as more fertile and healthy, so that is why they are 'more attractive.'

    I think people are misunderstanding him. He isn't saying that some people are worthless if they are not objectively attractive; the studies he used exemplifies our preferences when other factors are not available, such as consideration of the person in question's character, and relationship with us, which alter our perception of attractiveness and remove any objectivity from our observations, as practically, attraction is very reliant on our individual experience (although we cannot ignore our biological preferences); however, as he said, as a generality we are able to choose which is most attractive based solely on physical attributes, however, in practicality, past first impressions which weed out those who obviously display features which are unfavourable to us subconsciously, we focus on other assets of the person to determine our attraction to them. Although scientifically it holds little to no merit in current times, i find the study of physiognomy to be quite interesting in possibly explaining our differences in preference of those faces less than perfect, and may say something about why we individually hold varying preferences based on our genetics and which qualities would be most beneficial to be passed down in our partners - i don't think it would be a terrible idea to humour its study once again.

      EssTema That is a useless model. If just by "Expanding" your mind, you can come to like anything, then nothing has actual value. It is the same as paper money, which is called Fiat currency (from the Latin, "Let it be"). Paper money has no objective value, unlike gold, or diamonds. But money stands for something, and that something is what we value out of convenience instead of actual content. There is no difference between value that can be found by mental gymnastics and value that isn't there at all.
      And this very statement " There is no difference between value that can be found by mental gymnastics and value that isn't there at all." Is what brings people to dislike modern art. Just like beauty, if it's in the eye of the beholder, then everything is meaningless unless someone comes and throws meaning at it. And logically, no opinion on beauty is more valuable than another. In the end you come up with an arrogant statement that says "What's pretty and meaningful, is like that because I like it."

    • @BygoneT
      @BygoneT 6 лет назад +3

      EssTema Nonsense. It's like you *want* to ignore objective information, like, Symmetry always appears as "Beautiful" in healthy humans.
      Nobody spends time telling their children what looks good or not. No concept for beauty is needed to trigger the chemical reactions for the response, said response in words is expressed as "Beauty". The structure of the unconscious makes sure of that. You, my friend, do not get to pick what you think looks good. At some point in your life, you look at X painting, or X structure, or X face, and for whatever hidden reason, the thought that it looks good comes to you. You have no control over what you like.
      The attempt to find a geometrical shape that will look good, unless irrationality ensues, was successful 2300 years ago. The Greeks discovered various ways to represent the Golden Ratio, and even today artists or architects use the Golden Rectangle to make faces and buildings. The reason being, humans find it unconditionally good looking when implemented in secret. Another thing humans find beautiful are Fractals. Or any type of curvature that occupies a space evenly.
      Society can't do anything except build on these natural principles.
      Lastly, children don't "Understand" concepts. But they act them out. Child psychologists discovered this like, in the 50s. Information is stored in their tiny, barely functioning brain, whether they want it or not. I mean, think about it: nothing comes from nothing. They need something to remember what they see and how to categorise it, otherwise they'd live for years without being able to learn a thing.

I was fortunate enough to grow up surrounded by people of different races and I can honestly tell you from my first hand experience, black guys are into completely different types of girls than white guys, from the friends I know personally. I remember a few years ago in our teenage days when we we used to rate girls daily (lol waste of time but hormones were crazy!). Most white guys would agree someone like Megan Fox was the most beautiful woman in the world with Kate Upton up there too but black guys though they found them somewhat decent they thought women like Rihanna and Lauren London were far more beautiful. These are women who don't even look alike. That's like saying that old school idea that to be beautiful a woman has to be blonde and blue-eyed lol we all know thats not true.

    One half of my face is gorgeous the other half is flat and slightly recessive - I hope I haven’t had a stroke, it started developing since I was an early teen - but from childhood pictures my nostrils are crooked. What is the cause? Bad genes? Bad diet? I’m 20 (female) is it too late for my bones to grow on that side of my face.
