What do you find beautiful in a person aesthetically and inside? In my opinion, I don't find perfect models that appealing, I think they are overrated. I like people who look natural, imperfect on some level. I also look for who they are on the inside, if they have heart, soul, passion and true human vulnerability they are beautiful to me. Yours sincerely,Venus in aqua. IP: Logged |

I think it's more about how someone makes me feel. If I don't like someone their physical beauty will be meaningless to me. Pretty much as simple as that. Anyways I don't have a specific taste in humans LOL

I think I kinda "like" most people. Don't really find one to be more appealing than the other. "Perfect" or "imperfect", evil or good, nice or mean, passionate or cold as a dead fish.... - to me they're just different "spices" of life. I used to find kindness beautiful. Then I found out that I felt pretty much the same about viciousness. IP: Logged |

Yep! Same for me. I have physical preferences but it's pretty broad in spectrum. As far as the conventions themselves and all that stuff. I don't pay attention to them, but if that's what other people enjoy, it doesn't mean anything to me. That's their business. Venus Virgo IP: Logged |

beauty is just too subjective - it truly is in the eye of the beholder, and often VERY blind, lolIP: Logged |

To me, genius is beauty. I like certain physical appearance and and cleanliness, clean teeth, fresh breath, no B.O. There is something that trumps this. I really admire people with a certain genius in something they do or a talent or ability. I am first to compliment them when I notice it.It's just part of having Mercury/Jupiter/Uranus conjunct in Libra ascendant sextile angular Venus in Leo, tenth house, I guess. IP: Logged |

Of course you are beautiful and I can tell you are super smart. Gemini moon is always best when you can see them like on videos and such. You know, they say Neptune rules acting but I really wonder if Gemini does because it seems like people with moon in Gemini especially are very expressive. Maybe it's just your sun in Leo I am seeing with the Gemini? I think the combination is really awesome.

I am actually attracted to people's eyes. My Sun in 8th and the eyes being the windows to the soul and all that, I think.Other than that, I don't have a "type". I like people who look unique in their own way, and are witty. Celebrities that I find attractive include Conan O'Brien and Stephen Colbert, or actors like Kyle MacLachlan, Malcolm McDowell, and John Cleese circa Monty Python days. A wide range, as you can see.

I can appreciate "flawless" beauty. For example, I'm in awe of how good AnnaSophia Robb looks (at least to me) though that she never seems to even realize it makes it even more amazing (I wonder if she'll keep that as she becomes more adult, I'm not so certain she will)...but that said I typically like men & women with defining features and curves (REAL curves, not "Barbie doll curves") for the most part. Imperfections add character, identity, and make them more approachable. And generally speaking models (male and female) rarely look good to me...and everything my mom (a former model) said about the profession and what little I've seen of the contests make them seem demeaning as well as baffling (the ultimate in baffling was that mother who had a meltdown that her toddler wasn't winning a beauty contest which I expect half of you know who I'm talking about, heck I learned of that because someone made a thread about it here at LL). I believe there's a hint of conspiracy to it as well to serve not only as a distraction but also to sell snake oils (again, the stories my mom has of her model days makes me wonder why anyone puts up with it and why people don't see through it). If companies and organizations want "the most beautiful" to be a spokesperson then they should make it a contest of a different sort such as who can come up with and then execute the best beautification project as just one example. If it MUST be about fragile, subjective beauty then they should at least have different categories (for different ages, styles, weight class, athletic vs. china doll, Venusian vs. androgynous, femme vs. tomboy, goth & cosplay & historical, etc). Heck, I'm also fascinated with men who can look more feminine & beautiful (as a woman) than many women! IP: Logged |

Probably the Aqua on my DC, and the trine from Scorpio Uranus to Pisces Sun/BML Lilith. I like people who are weird and intense, but with a sense of humor. IP: Logged |

Like most people I'll be drawn to an image that is pleasing to the eyes, this includes the subject. In real life you see so much more than just the subject but the environment the interactions, so many other factors All of a sudden the appearance do not really matter much.IP: Logged |

Before I actually got married I always said I wanted to marry PJ Harvey and Mark Arm, hahaha. But I would take Nick, too. <Edit> I'm married, so of course all that is irrelevant. Not to mention I've seen Mark Arm's hot girlfriend, and I don't stand a chance against that. IP: Logged |

Yeah, I think she probably hit it for me too. I rarely look at a model and think they're attractive. I like imperfections, and I think they're often what makes people attractive physically, combined with who they are in spirit. IP: Logged |

Not a fan of Mark Arm but PJ Harvey is just simply a goddess. I meant to say something in another thread where you mentioned you have a Virgo Moon, but anyways I have a virgo moon as well and I've always thought of Henry Lee as the quintessential Virgo moon music video. You should look up PJ and Nick's charts....Virgo galore! IP: Logged |

Yeah, I knew that PJ is a Libra, but I always assumed that she must have some Scorpio in there, as well as Nick Cave. I've been meaning to look at all of her aspects and whatnot, but have never got around to it for some reason. Mark Arm and Kurt Cobain have birthdays close to mine, so I've looked at some of their placements. *Adds to "to do" list* <Edit> Good lord, that's a whole lotta Virgo goin' on with those two! Cool that they knew each other when they were younger, too. I would probably never have guessed so much effing Virgo, hahahhaa. But Virgo can have its own weird intensity, eh? IP: Logged |
