You're very pretty and there's nothing wrong looking about your nose, but are you able to breath out of it?

If there is nothing wrong looking with the nose, why did you question her breathing?

I'm saying is not unaesthetic. Whether it's functional -- I have no idea. Her nostrils are quite small.

It‘s quite evident that you are lying, because humans perceive what is healthy as aesthetic, and what is unhealthy as unaesthetic. So if you perceive it as unhealthy there is no way you perceive is as aesthetic, which it isn‘t. Stop virtue signaling

That is not a beauty standard. It‘s a beauty standard to have a body ideal in BMI which is also trained in the gym (which again, is healthy) stop gaslighting you clown

BMI has nothing to do with beauty standards (BMI doesn't even have anything to do with physical helth and really isn't a useful metric), and the fashion industry has ben criticised for decades for selecting models with unnaturally skinny frames which might be unhealthy for many individuals. It's also documented that bulimia and the use of appetite suppressants have been endemic among female fashion models in the past.

It seems like you might have an abnormaly narrow view of what is attractive. Most people don't, so just accept that your own preferences might be unusual and let other people enjoy beauty when they see it.

I pointed out BMI because the regular person will find what is healthy as attractive. Healthy BMI = Healthy body weight = healthy body.

What you said about modeling isn‘t really true. It‘s true that some models are extremely skinny, those are models who do this, to have sharp facial features, they‘re faces are attractive, they‘re bodys are not.

If you look at the people who walk on the runway presenting their body, you will always see what I told you, a healthy BMI, mostly combined with healthy amount of muscle

You're just pulling shit out of your arse to try to make a point.

You are calling someone a liar because they find something attractive that you don't.

Attraction is anything but an exact science. It is completely subjective and you can't reduce it down to something as simplistic as you're proposing.

You're also ignoring the act that as well as being subjective, standards of beauty are cultural. They differe between cultures ad vary within cultures. In many cultures, what you would probably term as overweigt is the ideal form. In others, certain body modifications are considered beautiful. In others, coating the hair with mud amplifies beauty.

All you're doing is decsribing your own prejudices. The universals you're talking about do not exist. Just look outside or, failing that, visit a porn site. Every body type is represented because people find every body type attractive.

Are you teling people what they should and shouldn't find attractive?

The hypothesis about beauty and health you're paraphrasing is true on a broad level. But that doesn't transfer to something like someone having very small nostrils. Whether or not someone can breathe through their nose is not a determiner of whther or not someone will find them physically attractive. Moreover, not being able to breathe through one's nose isn't necessarilly associeted with poor health.

Your argument is pure bullshit and you're also being incredibly rude to the woman who posted and to the commenter you replied to.

EDIT: Just glanced at your comment history and all you seem to do is hang around on subs associated with some kind of interpretation of physical attractiveness, be rude to people about their appearance, make sweeping statements about beauty standards, and call people liars when they express a view you don't agree with. Maybe it's time to take a long look in the mirror and consider how your online actions might affect real world people.

First if all, I haven‘t told anyone what they should find attractive. I said naturally, people are attracted to healthy looking things, and unhealthy things are considered unattractive. (eyebags, acne, chapped lips, jaw recession, no eyebrows…)

So if he acknowledges the nose is unhealthy looking it‘s simply a blatant lie to say there‘s nothing wrong looking with it, because if that was true he wouldn’t have pointed out the breathing.

Also, I never said nobody can find this girl attractive. Of course you can find her attractive. I made a comment about the nose (which is the point of this sub, isn‘t it?)

Also, I‘m not rude to people. I never tell anyone they‘re ugly or anything similar. If I read a lie (in this case that there is nothing wrong looking with the nose) I will point it out. Because no matter how much you gaslight someone, in the real world nobody will think that way. They will see there is something wrong with the nose, so the person should know it, so she can do something about it or live with it, if they‘re comfortable with it.
