ugly


hello fellow marsupials
this note goes out to ugly or average looking people who are disgruntled at the fact that no one sees them as the beautiful people they really are !
before i begin, im going to etablish three categories of beauty
objective beauty, subjective beauty and something ill just call "unique" beauty for now

subjective beauty occurrs when you associate yourself with someone for a long time either romantically or platonically
you may progressively perceive them as more and more attractive as you've had numerous associations with him/her. Their personality and your experiences with them makes the individual good-looking, your perception no longer becomes objective but subjective.
face it, that same person you find now attractive would not have been so beautiful at the start
e.g. "the more i began to know him, the more hotter he became"
e.g. "you might find me ugly, but my mum and all her friends think im the hottest boy to ever grace the planet"

now objective beauty
there is no true definiton of objective beauty
but society more or less has sculpted what the ideal man or woman looks like
and what facial characteristics they possess
regardless, more or less everyone agrees on what characterises a good looking person
objective beauty is simply what everyone else finds good-looking at the current state of time
e.g. "most east asians consider big eyes and pale skin attractive"
e.g. "james franco is universally considered attractive, don't deny it"

now there is the third category, unique beauty
unique beauty is what we intrinsically consider good looking
and its unique only to us
most of the time our perceptions of unique beauty is more or less the same as objective beauty
it just depends on how individualistic you or your society are
unique beauty is unique because we all live different lives, we all have different experiences
and the tiniest shapers of our life will subtly influence on what we perceive as attractive
e.g. a girl with daddy problems finds individuals that look like her dad attractive

now you think ugly people can only rely on their personality or status in order to be attractive, external factors, as they do not fulfill any of the characteristics of objective beauty

however, thats incorrect, there is still unique beauty
we live in australia, one of the most individualistic socities in the world.
we hail from a myriad of cultures and experience
and every sphere of influence clash, shape and evolve
what transpires is a very broad spread of "unique" beauty
seriously, anyone can find anything attractive
believe it or not, beauty is in the eye of the beholder is a very true term
its just, the uglier you are, the harder and harder it is to find that beholder
so dont worry,
just be patient even if you look like a fridge
to that special girl, you'll be the most handomest fridge in the paddock
you know why? well because her best friend was one
exactly.

dont believe me?
well how do you account for those very rare moments when you and someone lock eyes
and you will feel that instant, intrinsic and perhaps animalistic magnetism
you guys dont know each other personalities nor to do you have any memories of each other
nothing but your undesirable appearence yet you still find each other attractive.

im not really sure if i explained this concept well
sometimes its hard to verbalize my thoughts
so feel free to ask questions !!

some people may actually consider unique and subjective beauty the same thing
i guess the main distinction is
that unique beauty makes an ugly person, beautiful immediatley
whilst subjective beauty transforms that ugly person to a beautiful over time
most of the time, the forms of beauty will overlap
and if you're really lucky, you may achieve the trifecta
