>By going on a 5 day no fap, my libido shot though the clouds, and I saw beauty everywhere.
I noticed this myself. On the day I decided to commit suicide a couple of weeks ago while on the way to campus I looked around and I saw that people, a greater proportion of them, seemed more beautiful to me than usual, even the ones I had considered to be "normal" or ordinary people before. I hadn't fapped to porn for over two weeks then. If I had fapped it was to my own imagination - sex with an imagined gf, for example.

>But it's hard to pinpoint that one face, that one body.
I used to think there was that one ideal that everyone could or would find attractive as well. Until I decided on a definition parallel to the one given in Sherlock.

>JOHN: Am I ... pretty? (He points up to his Rizla.) This.
>(He props his head up on one fist.)
>SHERLOCK: Beauty is a construct based entirely on childhood impressions, influences and role models.
>JOHN: Yeah, but am I a pretty lady?

But I still think there is that one image though. That one woman or man that everyone can find attractive. Sexually or aesthetically. Beyond our experiences leading our tastes, there is a biological list: physical and behavioral features that lead our species towards survival and which descendants evolved to carry in their own bodies. This is why more fit and healthy people are (on average) considered more attractive.

One can be closer to that ideal if all of these are found and applied on him/herself.
