What is beauty?

Sayings about what beauty is not counted.We easily repeat the well-known, quite serious and half-joking formulations of this word. We know that she is a "terrible force", "a language of superconsciousness", even "sound and visual pleasure." However, when it comes time to give your own answer to the question of what beauty is, we often experience difficulties. Similar difficulties for centuries are experienced by scientists, trying to explain an uncomplicated, seemingly, concept.

Until a certain time, it was considered:beauty is associated with expediency. Many scientists argued: the concept of beauty is nothing else than a category of aesthetics, denoting a harmonious combination of many aspects that in their complex cause pleasure in the observer. That's why the word "beautiful" we use to describe the female or male body, architectural structures, landscapes, etc.

Another part of the pundits to the question thatsuch beauty, gives a completely different answer. They believe that this is an ideal that corresponds to cultural or ethnic concepts that have developed in one place or another.

It is not accidental that the concept of "beautiful woman"peoples denotes different types of women. In Europe, for example, a tall, long-legged and thin girl is considered a beauty. Such beauty for us has a certain status.

In Mauritania, daughters are specially fattened,sometimes using torture. The hindrance in this country is a shame not only for the future bride, but for her entire family. Mauritanians believe that only a fat woman is able to endure, and then feed the child. Hence, to the concept of beauty they are suitable from the point of view of survival.

In one of the tribes of North Africa, women "cut off" all teeth for beauty.

No wonder they say: "How many people - so many opinions."California scientists came to an unexpected conclusion. On the question of what beauty is, they answer: "In fact, beauty does not exist." After certain studies, American psychologists came to the conclusion: beauty is a pattern, primitive, maximum resemblance to the majority.

The beauty of man, say the Americans,is determined by the processing speed of visual information. The simpler the face, the less detail on it, the easier it is to grasp the face of a person with one glance, the more beautiful it seems to us. This phenomenon was called a "lazy brain". Despite the fact that such statements appear to be rather controversial, in the last century they were confirmed with the help of a computer program. Photos of six hundred recognized beauties and beauties analyzed using a program that takes into account anthropometric data. It turned out that they are very similar to each other.

The principle of "lazy brain" works when assessing people, living and nonliving nature.

For many centuries it was believed that that average standardBeauty emerged as a result of evolutionary development. It is he who gives more chances of survival or reproduction. It was believed that nature reproduces many copies only when the original pattern is worthy of inheritance.

Today, American psychologists have proved the fallibility of this theory.

The classics have their own opinion. They believe that the true beauty of man is the unity of appearance, spiritual world, actions and aspirations.

So what is beauty?Apparently it is a harmonious image, which causes extremely positive emotions, something that causes admiration. Beauty is a feeling of comfort with the way you like, whether it's a beautiful landscape, a beautiful person or a beautiful animal.

Let everyone have their own concept of beauty. Some people like mountains, others like steppes. One likes blondes, and others - bbw.

Beauty creates a desire to live, to interact with the world around, to strive for excellence.
