    Is True Beauty Subjective or Objective - Yla

    True beauty can be seen as both subjective and objective. From a subjective viewpoint, something is beautiful if it is attractive or valued by an individual. However, objectively beauty could be defined by specific criteria that a person must meet. Ultimately, true beauty is best defined subjectively rather than objectively, as perceptions of beauty differ between individuals and are based on more than just physical characteristics like kindness and personality. Art is also appreciated differently by different viewers, showing beauty is perceived subjectively by each person rather than having a single objective definition.

    Is true beauty subjective or objective?

    Most of the people tend to be confused whether true beauty is subjective or objective.
    You may define true beauty from a subjective point of view when something is attractive to
    those who value and seek it. On the other hand, it may be defined from an objective position
    when people tend to follow a specific criterion on how to have the characteristics of this true
    beauty. True beauty, when it comes to a person, is not only seen through the physical aspects of
    an individual, but also through the attitudes and characteristics they have. It is most seen in how
    you interact with other people - being kind-hearted, caring, respectful, and all the positive
    attitude someone possesses. 

    If we are pertaining to the objective side of true beauty, then every individual should have
    these specific qualities and requirements they want to meet. Like for example, this person should
    be like this and like that just for them to be called beautiful. It’s more like you are in need of
    wanting to meet these criteria, and that these are the standards that the person should
    possess,which is basically not generally stated.

    Therefore, we perceive true beauty subjectively. We believe that “beauty is the eye of the
    beholder”, because there is no delineated definition of beauty. We have different perceptions of
    people’s appearances and features. Exact characteristics for beauty are not defined even if they
    are looked up on the internet. As long as one is visually pleasing for somebody, then she is
    beautiful. We cannot generalize that a slim person is a beautiful person, and a fat person,
    otherwise. It all depends on how a specific person defines for himself ‘beauty’ when something
    is presented on him.

    Appreciating art is also a manifestation that beauty is indeed subjective. As we all know,
    each artist that creates art has a vision of what each should be all about – what does it depicts.
    They also have a purpose: mainly what they want the viewers to see or feel. However, what they
    want the audience to feel about their work might be different from what is illustrated, and that is
    totally alright. Each audience has their own take away after seeing the artwork. Art is a construct
    in a sense that artists put a little part of themselves into their artwork, and just because the
    audience does not get it or does not like it, makes an artwork bad or not art at all. 

    We believe that beauty based on standards, is not true beauty at all.
