Is Beauty really in the eye of the beholder?

This is a continuation from my previous post...
I think I made men sound rather shallow in my previous post, haha..

I guess some of you were even shocked, that such a nice guy like Rickson who judges not by other's appearance and only looks at the character & heart would say such a thing!!
Okay okay, i'm exaggerating, i'm not that perfect a person, haha..




Anyway, i want to continue from there.
I mentioned that men prefer pretty women...

Many agree that men are stimulated by visuals while women by words.
Men get turn on easily by pretty women, while women get turn on easily by words.
And thats the reason why so many men get cheated by pretty women, while so many women get cheated by men who know how to sweeten words.
The worst thing about it, is that they don't just get cheated, but repeatedly.



And now, let me share with you a revelation i had recently.
I've heard about so many stories of how couples got together.
Men are turn on by a woman's looks, but surprisingly so many guys told me that at the start of their friendship with the girl, they were not attracted to the girl's looks at all!

So how does it makes sense?
Men are turn on by looks, but many men fell in love with a girl that did not really had the look to turn them on in the beginning?
An oxymoron?
Not really...

Here comes the good stuff...
A man's brain, is connected to the visual input more than anything else!!
Thats why men prefer pretty women.
Because the visuals excites the brain.
But it can work the other way round too, and I've experience that myself.

What I mean is that other than having the visuals affecting the brain, a man's brain can affect the visuals too!!
And that is the reason why when in love, a man thinks he has the prettiest spouse in the entire history, present & even future of the world!!


Because afer he really knows her, after he sees her character, how nice and caring she is, the man's brain starts affecting the visual input, his brain starts telling his eyes that this girl is so awesome.
And he starts seeing her prettier than she might be in her appearance.
That is why in most of the romantic scenes of a love movie, the guy can't help himself but keep telling the girl how beautiful she is.

And that is also why so many times when i see certain girls, my first impression on them is only average, but when i really get to know their character, they'll suddenly seem so pretty!

And that is also also also also why, some people might appear so attractive at first sight but afterward seem only average..
The chinese calls it bu4 nai4 kan4..
(Singlish = Starting see see very chio, but afterwards see long long already sianed)

It's a visual trick that a man's mind plays on him.
It has its advantages and disadvantages, but a word of advice for the women out there, make best use of this advantage..

So all I've talked about above, I believe can be termed as "Inner Beauty".

Oh, and for guys... When a girl falls in love with you, most of the time she'll think that you're the best guy on earth!! Not perfect, but better than all the other imperfect guys out there, haha..
(If i'm wrong, correct me, coz there's a limit I know about girls)



So that's all!! This post has value in terms of eternity & of time, unless you're those blessed with the gift of Celibacy. (which means you wanna stay single all your life)
