Beauty and Attractivness

Ideally speaking we'd like to think that everyone is beautiful no matter who he or she is. But this is not always true. No matter how objective we are we always end up to be subjective. I am in ways similar, for example babies as you know are mostly cute, but what would you do if you went to someones house and perceived that their baby was particularity ugly. would you still carry it and play around with it or just leave it. Sadly in most circumstances people decide to leave the baby as it is known most things are done on the basis of attractiveness. However this story that I read a some time back which remind me of an interesting perspective regarding beauty and attractiveness. This story is about a two nobleman who are dressed up in disguise to go around the villages and when they stop at one of the villages they see this small child playing in the mud. They both think what an ugly child this is. However sometime later the mother comes out and coons to the child as takes him in her arms and pacifies hims. She then see the two nobleman and chases them out saying they were disturbing her child. Thus it can be seen that beauty is relative to who perceives it and that it depends on how people perceive that defines attractiveness and beauty.
