I was just wondering, what does everyone think is beautiful? I'll do an example of what I think is:

5'4", about 100 pounds, long, curly dark brown hair.

That is what I want to look like in a nutshell.

A person with a good personality =)

As cheesy as it may sound, I mean it...haha

EDIT TO ADD:  I have seen physical traits that I would like to have, BUT I wouldn't want to label them as the only thing I think is beautiful...Just because I would prefer to have brown hair doesn't mean I haven't seen beautiful people with blonde and red hair!

DARK EYEBROWS. Straight and thick for a man, slender but still full for a woman.

The more expressive, the better.

;D

That is far from cheesy. All joking aside, I think you just totally made my night. Thank you!
Just being honest!

But my pleasure =)

haha

For women, geez, I don't have any preference. I have a wide spectrum as far as that is concerned. I think how you carry yourself is what matters. People who love to laugh, they are beautiful!

If i were a girl or& nbsp;gay, I would go for& nbsp;Christain Bale. Just sayi n. 

Dark brown hair and thick eyebrows(for guys especialy) with clear blue eyes.  Bonus points for broad shoulders.


Or pale complexion with long straight black hair.



-LemonJello

small waist, large hips, blue eyes, dark brown hair, small nose, sexy medium sized lips, long eyelashes, nice thighs not too thin not too thick but definately enough to not have them touching when standing up.

About six feet, one hundred seventy-five pounds, sharp jaw line, piercing eyes.. gorgeous, sweaty, short, dark brown hair tucked beneath a helmet with a jersey covering those lucious, manly pectoral muscles belonging to none other than (former) ECHL hockey's Mike James.

Sorry Alex if you ever read this.
I think a beautiful person is someone who is beautiful inside in out- So good self esteem, confidence & a unique person---and a personality---lots of things make a person beautiful but I like to look at the inside rather than the out. Because a person can be drop dead gorgeous on the outside but can be the ugliest person around---and I'm sure you all know what I  mean

I definitely know what you mean Bootser!

I think that women that love and respect themselves and the world are beautiful. 

I think there's a few things that can never be too big on a woman.. Butt, boobs, eyes, eyelashes, lips, and personality!! I also like really healthy long hair.. which i've never managed to achieve because i love colouring/bleaching/straightening mine so much!!

the world around me

 I think that the original poster needs to ask themselves a very serious question. " Do I have a disorder? " The reason for which being their goal is that of someone with an ED. If it's not their goal than their idea of beauty is distorted. I understanding wanting to be beautiful, and setting goals. However, some people take healthy tools to an unhealthy extreme. By setting idea stats such as the above 5'4 100lbs as beautiful in their head. It sounds you got mixed up somewhere along the line. The idea of beautiful you listed sounds like the idea of perfection given by someone with a problem.

I think it's more important to be a nice person. If someone isn't a nice person they don't ever appear beautiful to me.Or if so it lessens the effect.  I think that whatever you're on the inside shines through. So if you're a nice person people consider you beautiful/pretty. People are attracted to you and want to spend time with you. If you aren't a nice person than no matter what you do to your physical appearance, whatever you're inside shines through. That doesn't mean they aren't ' attractive ' it just means that whatever they are on the inside overshadows it to someone that is. However, that concept is void to those that lack the quality. They see no difference.

Example: Gaston from Beauty and the Beast. (Yes, I know it's a children's movie. However, those sometimes hold the most meaningful lessons.)

Everyone thought he was such a handsome fella, so desirable except for Belle. When her father told her how handsome he was.... She responded with " and ruuude and conceited... ooh popa he's not for me. " Same concept. She noted that he was ' handsome ' but the effect dropped down a notch, due to the fact he wasn't ' good ' on the inside. Some people see straight through to the core of a person.

Enchantingimage: I totally understand what you're saying, and I agree that the most beautiful people are beautiful on the inside as well. However, attacking the original poster with ED accusations is not just rude, but also simply too easy of an answer.
Someone who is 5'4", 100 pounds would be very skinny; too skinny. Yet, this is the image portrayed in fashion, the media, diet ads... I am 5'4" as well, weighing somewhere around 120 pounds. And while I know that I am a healthy weight for my age, height, and build, I can't help but look upon unhealthy girls weighing 100 pounds and feeling a twinge of jealously and a slight increase in my usually dormant inferiority complex. I am by no means anorexic; I eat healthily and frequently, but not so healthily that I despise the occasional slice of pizza or handful of halloween candy. 
Additionally, an underweight person is not necessarily an anorexic one. I have a close friend, age fifteen, who is about 5'6" and weighs 97 pounds. She is healthy and happy, eating well, exercising, and overall enjoying life. But there is no way that she is anorexic. She has gone to see a nutritionist; all he would say was that she was healthy, she just needed to maintain her current lifestyle and maybe she will eventually gain some weight. It kills me to see her at this weight, for though I know she's healthy, many others do not. She is constantly teased for being anorexic, even though she is not. She calls me, triumphantly, every time she gains a pound. 
False standards of beauty have made many girls (and boys, for that matter) to curse their bodies for being too fat. But likewise, a well-meaning but unhelpful band of people have made exceedingly skinny people feel just as bad by accusing them of having eating disorders. Real beauty can mean many things. But truly beautiful people can come in all shapes and sizes. And setting a minimum weight for beauty is just as bad as setting a maximum.

A great smile.

A face that glows with joy and health.

Clean, shiny hair in a good cut.

Pretty eyes.

Freckles!

Someone with spirit, personality, soul, life, curiosity, excitement, and enthusiasm.

Someone who is loving, honest, open, caring, considerate, compassionate, bright, witty, intelligent, respectful, wise and discerning.

=^..^= MOLLY

you are
deppends on weather its for how i would want to look beautiful or how i htink other people look beautiful if you get me

Beauty is on the inside. Everything on the outside is gravy :)

 

 

Haha, thanks cstefan - I like that!! 
You are all right. It is what is on the inside that makes one beautiful, not what is on the outside. When I started this thread, I wasn't thinking that way tho. So thanks.
