when I wanna fug em

>>6377785
only acceptable answer

When they have repeating digits

>>6377775
Symmetry and proportion.

>>6377833
Checked.

>>6377785
Wrong. What makes a person beautiful is when sexualizing that person brings an immoral sense of guilt.

>>6377850
Then... beautiful doesn't exist?

>>6377849
Is that all? Just symmetry and proportion?

>>6377775
looking like Taylor Swift and having feet that I want to cum on

>>6377833

>>6377882
Feet are just dirty deformed hands.

whatever set of picky, selfish attributes get me hot at any given moment. Nothing more

>>6377877
People tend to find actual symmetry creepy and unnatural.

>>6377833
hey good looking ;)

>>6377890
Taylor Swift's aren't

Beauty is subjective

>>6377913
Of course, but most can agree about whether a given person is pretty or not.

>>6377923
I don't find Taylor Swift pretty. She's not ugly, but if she wasn't famous I wouldn't look twice.

>>6377925
Me neither. What I mean is that everyone has a sense of what beauty is. Though I don't find her really attractive I can see how others can. Now If you show me a dirty, fat old lady It'll be likely we all agree that this person isn't beautiful.

>>6377923
>most can agree about whether a given person is pretty or not
The existance of a social appreciation of "beauty" doesn't mean there's a principle that defines it.

>>6377944
What would it be then? Can a person be beautiful even if absolutely everyone agrees he/she is ugly?

>>6377775
I like my women round, made of glass and weeping bits of sand, because nature is curvaceous

>>6377949

Beauty does not exist on its own

>>6377949
On the eyes of the right observer, yes. I'm sure there's someone out there who finds >>6377943 pic arousing and attractive.

What is defined by society as beautiful changes through time and depends on a lot of factors. I would only agree that there's certain patterns that remain the same through time, like being healthy, wealthy and self confident.

Despite all of that, the individual appreciation of what is beautiful can differ a lot from what is socially attractive. It has a influence in the individual, but it's not a "copy-paste" thing.

>>6377949
No

>>6377849
>Symmetry and proportion.
Beat to it. Give a shout out to emotionally and mentally stable though for that abstract "beautiful." Just cause a bitch is smoking hot doesn't mean that she's sane. What good is she if she's a fucking loon?

the eyes of the beholder.

>inb4 fedora tippers will say it's all about genetics and reproduction shit

I'm 100% sure beauty has no objective reality

>>6378085
but there's no evidence to suggest what you're saying. the contrary has plenty, however

>>6378134
Seriously though, legitimate source

>>6378125
>free will is a joke
>genetics is everything
>calories in, calories out

>>6377775
The spirit of a person and their will to achieve. Determination and persistence.

Being natural.

>>6377775
Facial symmetry. A warm and polite disposition. The desire to preform fellatio, among other things.

>>6378163
>>6378085
The illusion of choice over what you're attracted to is a convenient one. It gives people hope.
>I like blondes
>brown eyes
>girls that are feminine
>who can perform fellatio

Any woman that displays attractive phenotypes that hits your fuck threshold you will consider beautiful. If she's funny/charming and you "get" her humour you'll consider her more beautiful because it means you have more of a chance at fucking her

>>6378196
>beauty is about sex and nothing else

eyy rofl

>>6378196
>attractive phenotypes

>>6378203

>>6377775
Pheromones, hormones, and measured reproductive potential.

We are fucking androids and there's no way to escape it.

>>6378196
All people are beautiful. not physically, but just by being. beauty is inherent in the nature of man. Though some choose to not allow it to manifest.

>>6378196
But Asexuals can appreciate attractiveness in other Humans without being sexually attracted to them.

>>6378218
>human higher functions has nothing to say when it comes to who we find attractive
>pheromones it's all what matters
You're being dumb even by strictly biological standards. It's like you didn't recieve the memo about our complex cortex.
>>6378257
Asexuality is just a behaviour. It doesn't mean someone don't have a sexual impusle, but more like that person is not interested in sex, which could mean more things that just "he/she doesn't have a sexual impulse".

>>6377850
so, children are beautiful?

>>6378268
>implying pederasts feel guilt about fucking children

>>6378257
Asexuals are mostly severely depressed sexuals or people pretending indifference.

The research that blog article cited is not valid. Symmetry created by artificially manipulating a photo is not the same as symmetry in nature. With the 'perfect symmetry' seen in a photo the person's face is 'exactly' the same on both sides, which is unsettling because it looks like it can't be real. Relative symmetry has been confirmed as a universal standard of beauty in all cultures. If somebody has an eye an inch below the other eye, it looks objectively disturbing.

>>6378257
Asexuals don't exist in the numbers that tumblr would have you believe. Unless you chemically castrate yourself you wouldn't be asexual, and once you are asexual you really don't have the ability to appreciate the physical beauty of another like a person with regularly functioning hormones can

It depends on numerous factors. Subjective experience, and at one point of life someone is at.

Someone who has gone through much trauma may see easily different aspects of human beings, whilst someone who's been absent from immense hurt may find something different.

It is an interchangeable, but interlocked, tesseract of emotional experience.

It's a mix of socially conditioned traits that vary from culture to culture, and some biologically universally desirable features like symmetry, skin that doesn't look malnourished, etc.

>>6378279
Then what about those people who like amputees?

>>6378279
>Relative symmetry
Is simply subtle asymmetry

>>6378291

What I'm saying is that more symmetry is objectively better than less, except at the point of looking like an computer generated image and triggering uncanny valley effects.

What makes a person?

>>6378298
Spunk & egg.

>>6378291

daily reminder that if you think love can boil
down to the right mix of chemicals you have
never been in love

oh wait im on 4chan of course you people

>>6378518
What is real?

>>6378518

>x exists

nice empty statement

This thread is pure autism.

>>6378521
But he said "fedoralord", that validates his entire statement.

But since studies came out proving gender is a social construct, then doesn't that mean beauty is too?

>>6377775
>What makes a person beautiful?
the firmness of one's erection

>>6378534
But the word "gender" does refers to the social expectations towards the sex of one individual, which is something that cannot be proven.

It's like make a study trying to prove if the word "apple" refers to a ovalish shaped fruit, usually red or green and with a sweet scent and flavor.

>>6378534
>studies
[you know the drill]

Am I the only one who say ''I love you'' right after sex and then never again ?

I only date women named Mongo

>>6378587
>Am I the only one who say ''I love you'' right after sex and then never again ?

Pretty sure you're the only on this board who ever says "I love you" unironically.

Say hi to Freddy from me, I'm sure you two are sharing HIV heaven.

>>6377775

>>6377775
That.

>>6378617

Your mother died of HIV

>>6377833

>>6378626
>Focault would say something as stupid and lack of wit as that
No, that was you, you silly dickhungry faggot.

I liked your book about power relationships between the subject and the state, it was a nice reading.

>>6378640

>No, that was you, you silly dickhungry faggot.

No. That was your fucking mother. Your mother is dying of Leukemia and HIV and you come to me, you have the cowardice, to come to me, and you fucking claim I have HIV? Let me tell you something, do you have any idea how disrespectful you fucking are. What if I came up to your mother, dying on her bed, and told you, that you told an anonymous man on the internet he had HIV?

Look at you. Grow up. Grow up while you still have the little respect of your mother, she doesn't have much time left.

>>6378667
>Foucault doesn't know he's dead
Is this some sort of "the sixth sense" trickery?

>>6378683

How do I not know you are your mother now? Posting?

>>6378684
Go to your tomb, Micky, you're to AIDSy to be alive.

to who? you OP?

>>6378690

Takes 1 to know 1

>>6378633
holy shit

>>6378667
Your posts are starting to piss me off. I made an example of the last dude who posted posts that pissed me off and he hasn't been back since. Check the archive. I command you to drop your tripcode within the next 24 hours. I swear to God, if I come on here Friday and I see that you are still posting, I am going to forcibly remove your tripcode and fucking humiliate you in front of all of my online friends. And that's the bottom line because Twiggy said so.

24 Hours? I hardly knew her!

Miss? I think you dropped something!

>>6377775

Haven't seen a good trip war in a while.
Still haven't.

>>6378860

this place is such a shit hole if someone who avatars as Twiggy wants me to leave. Say no more.

Within 24 hours, I will leave. It's like getting told to leave a Leper colony by someone with flesh eating bacteria.

You haven't been excommunicated by anyone of authority.

>>6378901

P-Pope? You're here to protect me?

>>6378144
I wasn't aware that calories in calories out wasnt true. Your body does not follow laws of physics? Or you are just a fatty tryibg to justify your gluttony and laziness with the old slow metabolism slang?

>>6378870
it could have said 'by a leper' but instead it chose 'someone with flesh eating bacteria' :^)

>>6378932

I just thought saying a leper, after saying leper colony, was redundant. So I decided Flesh Eating Bacteria wasn't as redundant.

>>6378919

>>6378961
>a giant faggot who was against all kind of power structures and died from AIDS it's actually pledging to the kingdom of heaven
Is this real life?

>>6378985

Could you stop roleplaying like I'm actually Foucault it's getting really annoying.

>>6378989
You could do something really simple to make me stop, Michelle.

>>6378961
How about the 12 that dwell on top of Oros Olympos

>>6378271
Some feel guilt about their attraction. Unless they're a psycho/ sociopath (same thing) on top of it then they will recognize it as wrong. Nabakov is a good example.

>>6379105

Sure.

>>6378989
Stop tripfagging and namefagging.

>>6380165

Stop fucking my mom

Their intelligence/knowledge. Age makes us all animal and ugly.

I think the point is to make us despair. To see ourselves as... animal and ugly. To make us reject the possibility that God could love us.

he's not saying it's not necessarily true, at least in part, but such a statement said, esp. as said by someone who feels it needs to be said because somehow they think the one who hears the said doesn't know it or isn't mindful of it, which is pretentious and arrogant, because either such statements as were made are either incredibly obvious as to be useless to say or incredibly simplistic as to be useless to say.
