When I say attraction is subjective I mean I may find someone quite endearing to look at even though someone else thinks they're ugly and another person thinks they're just ok.
I reject your percentages of ugly and beautiful because I think it's a silly notion.
I agree that it's only rational to have goodwill towards people regardless of whether they're ugly or beautiful. People should marry whomever they love, but if they love the person I doubt they consider them to be ugly just because you or I might.
Losty,
By saying ...another person thinks they're just ok, do you think that means that they don't think they are beautiful or ugly but in reality they may be beautiful or ugly ?
If you reject the percentages of ugly and beautiful because you think it's a silly notion, will you explain why you think that ?
You showing your agreement in part of what you said is valued and even though we appear to disagree in other parts, this discussion is valued.
Are you thinking a person may be pleased by the sight of another person and not think they're ugly and in reality they are not ugly but some people may think they are ugly ?
I added a question later by editing to a post I sent to you. Did you see it ? You may look at it below.
Are you thinking that some people won't be pleased by a mostly beautiful/handsome person ?
Your questions make no sense. Beauty is subjective.
I am saying that no people are objectively beautiful or ugly.
I may think someone is beautiful and you may think they're ugly. In reality they are neither beautiful nor ugly they just look however they look. You can only define beauty for yourself. You cannot define it for someone else.
"Are you thinking that some people won't...."
No. I'm thinking that everyone has their own standards. Everyone thinks a bit differently.
I think that most people do not place physical appearance at the top or the bottom of their list of important things when they're choosing a partner.
