[quote=Anonymous]NP.  I think that female "beauty"--defined by quantifiable things that can be found across cultures, like symmetrical faces, clear skin, and relatively large eyes--is normally distributed in each ethnic racial group.  In other words, for example if ~15% of Swedish woman are considered in their culture to be beautiful, then I'd imagine ~15% of say, Pakistani woman are also considered beautiful.  Now, we may all have *preferences* for the look of one group over another, but that's something different.

I was looking for something else and came across this article--thought it was relevant to this thread.  I liked looking at woman from all over, including some ethnic groups we're not too familiar with here in the US:

"This project called "The Ethnic Origins of Beauty" is striving to document different types of female beauty in cultures and ethnicities around the world. It's non-profit and the creator of the project, Natalia Ivanova, traveled to 15 countries and 4 continents to document the beauty of women in 50 ethnic groups. She took around 90 videos and photos. Take a look at this incredible project."
