"beauty Is In The Eyes Of The Beholder" How True? by sweetpie23: 4:13pm On Feb 20, 2010
I have two question regrading to this beauty is in the eyes of the beholder theory.

1) we told by the media and our peers what is beautiful? If we are persuaded by the opinions of others in regards to what true beauty means, then how do we determine what we really think about beauty?

2) If beauty is up to the individual, why are there people set up to look a certain way to please the masses?

(eg: indecency stars, movie stars celebrities etc)

Indecency stars are not always beautiful.

Even celebrities are not always beautiful.

Let your beauty be in your eyes first and you'll see the beauty of other people.

true but sometimes you go like 'that guy is hot' or 'that girl is pretty' and all your friends goes like 'what the hell are you kidding?' 'you need to get your eyes check' etc etc how the hell are we gonna see what is beautiful through our own individual eyes when society have their own standard of what is beautiful and what is not

Your friends are not the society, they are part of it, just like you. Every preference you have makes a difference in what the society likes. Besides it is a known fact that social norms are not always the expression of the majority.

Unless, you've carried out an experiment to contradict this theory

The beholder's eye is prone to malfunctions every now and again

so be sure to keep in mind that if you're ugly, you're ugly.
