Do men have a different view of (female) beauty than we do ?

I've noticed that often people think the kind of girl I find to be ..kind of ugly... really beautiful !!
I know that all ppl have different opinions ..but still...
What is up with this ? i'm really racking my brain these days

what makes a female beautiful and attractive??!!

This is so entirely subjective. Definitely nothing to rack your brain over. I'm sure we've all heard the phrase, Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, well, it's true because it is. What one fines pretty, the next person may not. Be comfortable in your own skin and the rest should fall into place.

Forunately most men and women find beauty in such a variety of ways. It would be a really boring world if all men only liked one type of beauty and all women only liked one type of man.

Taste is as diverse at the people having it. There are some standards of beauty that many many people seem to agree upon, dealing with symetry of facial structures and hip to waist ratios etc etc... but even that varies, thankfully.

I'm not the apple of the eyes of every man I run across, some don't take notice to me while others take A LOT of notice to me. I would never assume myself to be across the board attractive as I don't think anyone really is.

Also there is a beauty from within that some people lack that makes their outside less appealing and vice versa.

To me, my guy is the hottest boyfriend in the world. I find him very attractive on sight alone, but his personality, the way he makes me feel, and my love for him makes him more attractive to me than anything else breathing.

Some women I see I think are hot and sexy, beautiful and I feel ugly by comparison of myself to them. But thats just how I view it. I never see women and think I am MORE attractive then them either. So I guess I have a skewed viewpoint that makes me unsure of myself.

I'm learning to find the beauty in myself every single day and to try not to compare it with the beauty I see in others and feel like I am falling short.

There is tremendous variation among men in what women they find attractive. Unless someone is significantly disfigured, there will be a number of men who find them attractive.

There are a lot of men who like: tall, or short, thin or heavy, large or small breasted, dark or light hair, long or short hair, athletic or soft, etc, etc.

If there is someone who says or implies negative things about your appearance, then they aren't worth your attention.

Sounds like the 'person' is a social vampire feeding by putting you down. Stop spending time with them.

And people like all sorts. Some people even like amputees.

Mmmm... good afternoon young Anon

Beauty as they say is in the eye of the beholder... What attracks people mostly is not the outside, but the inside... but as far as the outside goes, even there, it's the sparkle in your eye, the smile and I think alot of men, if not all men prefer to see a natural woman, as aposed to one fully made up, where beauty is concerned.

As Anon pointed out, rather differently than perhaps he should have, it doesn't matter if you have a missing leg, what matters is if your beautiful inside, it will certainly show on the outside.

Okay I agree with all of the above, but...!

I've definitely noticed times when a person seems a lot more attractive to one sex over the other. Julia Roberts, for example. Women have apparently loved her for a long time now, but I've heard guys claim that it's only women who are into her. Meh, who knows!

I've also had girlfriends look at me all exasperated and say, "WHY are they attracted to you??" Wow, thanks, buddies!

**pink rosa** · 03-22-2010 07:43 PM

hahaha, Mes_T , that's really funny because I think Julia Roberts seem to have a golden heart and she is so sweet ... but as a girl , I don't think she is very attractive ~she is just normal I guess
