Beauty, Fitness and Health Care Tips
What is beauty? - a definitionCollins English Dictionary says it is "the combination of all the qualities of a person or thing that delight the senses and please the mind" - a definition that portrays beauty as an incredibly subjective quality. To a certain extent, it is. For instance, to you beauty may be large eyes, an aquiline nose and a regal bearing, while a friend might see beauty as flawless skin and a bold jaw line. Equally a colleague could insist that a smooth forehead, a rosebud mouth and impeccable taste in clothes are the pinnacle of beauty. Ask a scientist what beauty is and symmetry is the answer you will probably get. Even though there are many cultural and personal preferences - such as hairless or natural legs; blue eyes; large, pendulous breasts or high, firm breasts - the one trait appreciated in every culture is symmetry. Scientists reason that insects, animals and humans favor the regular over the irregular. This is because when something - whether it be a flower, a landscape or a face - has a recognizable pattern, it is easier to spot the out-of-place, the possible weak, the unhealthy or the dangerous. Interestingly, research has found that babies, too, prefer looking at both symmetrical patterns and symmetrical faces over asymmetrical ones.
