How can I know if I'm considered average looking or ugly in America!

Question

I'm sure if most people think you're attractive in your own country, you will be considered attractive in most countries as well? (Your results may vary)

@behappy3  I think they're all very beautiful

comolaflor_ · Answer

@behappy3 It's just extremely hard to give a definite answer. It could also just be someone's personal likes. Like I'm not really attracted to white men, but plenty of people are. That doesn't mean they're ugly, I just personally don't find them attractive. Since you're saying fair skin is more attractive in Asia, I guess maybe I would be considered ugly since I am naturally tanned. But that's not something I worry about.

@behappy3 I did say MAYBE lol But see you said it yourself, the whole appearance is important, not just the face or whatever you are focusing on most

In America there are lots of types of beauty there isn’t a standard really anymore. Different people will like different types. The saying beauty is in the eye of the beholder is really true here I think. I’ve been called beautiful and ugly many times and I think all those people were being sincere it’s just a matter of taste.Still some things apply like symmetry is universally important. America’s like good teeth. Tan skin is a trend right now and being curvy but you can still be considered attractive if that’s not you. Small eyes here can be seen as very beautiful in fact a lot of people prefer them and Asian eyes are often considered beautiful here. I think here if you dress nice and take care of yourself you will most likely be considered attractive at least to some people.

@behappy3 you are ADORABLE!

You are overthinking this.
Pic 4 has well defined facial structure. That helps to sell clothes or makeup or whatever. I personally prefer 1 and 2
.
Regarding what men find "attractive" in women..... 
men are looking for the visual clues connected to reproductive health. Youth, good skin, healthy hair, and a bust-hips-waist ratio. This is true for big gals or small gals, now or all through the past.

You have these elements of beauty, at least in that one pic of yours.

您想得太多了。
 图4具有明确的面部结构。 这有助于出售衣服或化妆品。 我个人更喜欢1和2
 。
 关于男人发现女人“有吸引力”的问题.....
 男性正在寻找与生殖健康有关的视觉线索。 青春，皮肤健康，头发健康，腰围和臀部比例高。 无论是现在还是过去，对于大加仑或小加仑都是如此。

至少在您的那张照片中，您具有美的这些要素。

@behappy3 well, you do look young. Very young, actually. Too young for me to be saying that you look sexy or whatever.
Light skin, dark skin... what matters is HEALTHY skin. who cares what color it is?

那么你看起来很年轻 很年轻，实际上。 太年轻，我说，你看起来很性感或任何东西。 轻皮肤，黑皮肤...什么事情是健康的皮肤。 谁关心什么颜色？

The more you want to know what other think about you, the more disapointment you take. Just look into reaction of someone you've known them for long, you would see how attractive you are.

@behappy3 I’m assuming you are Asian based off of your native language being Chinese, and talking about Asian standards of beauty. A lot of American men find Asian women attractive. They are considered “exotic” and thus more beautiful. Some people take it too far and have an obsession or even fetish for Asian people. However, you will be able to tell when you meet them if they are creepy or just think you’re pretty. A lot of Americans are also racist though, and may say you are ugly just because they dislike Asians. These people should just be ignored. The American expectation for Asians is that they are pale and have small monolid type eyes. Most Americans think of East Asians when they think of Asians. Having a darker skin tone or heavy set and wide eyes confuses some Americans who are less aware of other parts of Asia. Therefore, often Americans typically think of pale Korean, Japanese, or Chinese women as the only or “best looking” Asians, even though they can look different. Basically, if you don’t look like their idea of what an Asian woman should look like, they might not think you’re as attractive. This comes down to a common perception that all Asians have to look a certain way, even though many Asians can have darker skin or double lidded eyes. Personally, I think all women, Asian or otherwise, are beautiful. I assure you, most Americans don’t care what you look like, and will like you no matter how attractive you are. I know that was a little bit long, so I apologize. I hope that explained it though.

@behappy3 I would say 3 is the most attractive to me. She has very healthy looking skin, and a soft tan seems very attractive. Her eyebrows are very neat, and her eyes are very friendly looking.

Nat_Lang_Con_Lang · Answer

@behappy3 Do you live in America currently? If you don’t you’re probably not seeing a good representation of American Asians through media. You describe the flat profile as not being attractive in Asia. I’m not into BTS, but I’m familiar with them, picture 1 is Jimin(at least that’s what the internet says), and he has a rather flat profile. I’d say that most Americans find him attractive. He does have a bit more of a nose bridge than a lot of Asians, but it’s still flatter than most non Asian people. I asked some of my friends, and they all agreed he was good looking. Pictures 2 and 3 are people I don’t know, I just found their pictures online. From what I’ve gathered, these women may not have attractive features in Asia. However, I find both of these women to be extremely good looking. They have very clean and healthy looking skin. Their eyes are a bit smaller than westerners, especially pic 2, but they are a very nice shape.

@behappy3 I myself am not Asian, and I have a very clear double eyelid, but I also have hooded eyes. I think the biggest problem for American beauty standards with hooded eyes, is that it’s difficult to do eye makeup, which is very popular here. Other than that, they’re all pretty much just eyes.
