thats a common misconception. for the most part beauty isn't subjective. There are universally accepted characteristics of beauty. |
Although this is true (as there were those tests made with babies and whatnot), there's a great deal of subjective judgement on whether you find someone "beautiful", and here's why:

One should roughly know where one falls in the scale of beauty. For example, I would rate myself a 5 (average). I'm nothing to look at but I'm not ugly. I have good skin and teeth, i'm not over weight, good proportions, and well cut features. I could use more muscle tone and my face could be more symmetrical. Whether your personality can overcome your physical short comings is another story. We size up the opposite sex in the the first few seconds we meet, to deny that wouldn't be honest. |
Sure, there are a few traits that are more commonly regarded as "beautiful" (i.e. not many of us would find that guy posted by jrbuddha beautiful... or even cute, for that matter ). However, if you're infatuated with someone, this person will look a lot more attractive (i.e. beautiful) than if you weren't. The more negative characteristics a person reminds you of, the uglier you'll think they are (and vice-versa).

I dunno, one of my epiphany moments was when I was at a friend's house and their niece was there playing with dolls. I think she was 7-10 years old, and her face glowed with happiness.
But she was hideous. Not unnattractive. Not an ugly duckling who was going to turn into a swan. She was hideous. And all I could think about was puberty was just around the corner and it was going to hit her like a truck and that there was nothing I could do to protect her. |
For some reason, every American teenage sitcom has the "ugly redhaired". I find them stunning! Also, some individuals are not considered beautiful in their homeland, but once they go to a foreign country, the natives think these individuals are attractive.
I know for a fact I'm more popular with Russian girls than with the locals, for example
