I think it's a mix of both. There are erogenous areas (stomach, chest, face, genitals) that people are attracted to in degrees but what is actually aesthetically pleasing is different.
Sometimes girls are cute with little pudgy tummies and other times I can only get hard looking at girls with rock hard abs.

why are you bringing up sex? You can think that any creature of any age, species, gender, or race can be beautiful to sell extent. You can think that nature is beautiful, or a painting is beautiful. You can think that little girls are beautiful. What function does this awareness of beauty serve, if not based on sexual reproduction? Why do many images evoke awe in almost everyone, as if it is obvious that the thing admired is beautiful, whereas other things cause disagreement?

Beauty is the feeling of power that overcomes while observing a form. Since this feeling of power in relation to the forms it exhalts is evolutionarily determined, and no two minds are equal in their observing and determining, then beauty is subjective. Beauty is claimed to be objective by the resentful who are weary of fighting against other determinations of beauty, and is thus a sign of degeneration in the lifeform.

[Anonymous No.15092838]

>>15092805
False. It is actually the resentful who claim it is subjective. An overweight crossdresser is objectively not as beautiful as Brigitte Bardot. You would have to be retarded to claim such a thing is subjective.

All I would need to do to prove you wrong is create some lifeform with a mental determination of beauty that emits pleasure / some artificial feeling of power while thinking and percieving the attributes and qualities of the overweight crossdresser, and release an artificial feeling of weakness and inability over the attributes and qualities of Brigitte Bardot. It is your inability to empathize that leaves you limited to your "objective" evaluation. For you, there is superiority in beauty for Bridgitte, but a contrary could easily, quite literally, be constructed (and this valuation could even be advantageous depending on the lifeform in question).

Okay but that doesn't actually exist outisde of your thoughts. Beautiful and handsome things are considered so for a reason. People didn't just randomly agree to call specific traits handsome for no reason at all.

You still don't understand. If my lifeform was a human-like creature that existed on earth, then yes. But I could concieve of a non-human creature that doesn't exist on earth that could derive more "health" from intermingling with the tranny than Bridgit.
>>15092915
>Okay but that doesn't actually exist outisde of your thoughts.
How do you know? There is no way of confirming nor denying some such creature does not already exist, even possibly here on earth.
>Beautiful and handsome things are considered so for a reason.
No, they are felt, then a reason is interpreted behind the feelings, and this is what we are discussing: that this reason can vary depending on the lifeform in question.
>People didn't just randomly agree to call specific traits handsome for no reason at all.
People generally agree that different traits are beautiful because they are similar lifeforms, in this case, because they both have attributes which leads to their specification as "human".

Things that are good for you are actually bad for you, and things that are bad for you are actually good for you. Being morbidly obese, doing heroin and having a weak dick? Good. Being physically fit, smart and having a hard dick? Closeted homosexual, reactionary bullshit.
