Very wrong.
On the other hand, I think Uma Thurman is ugly, so what do I know?
I think there's usually more consensus around who is pretty than who is beautiful (or ugly). Pretty has a generic quality about it. People who are considered really beautiful often have something unusual or exaggerated about their features that sets them apart (above/below). I think Anne Hathaway, Uma Thurman, and Julia Roberts fall into this category. Most people, though, would say someone like Julie Bowen is pretty.

I think she's beautiful; my husband finds her terribly ugly. Neither of us are Asian. Who's right?
I'm with your husband. I'm a guy.

Affluent Asians usually get surgery to remove fat from under eyes to make eyes bigger

my parents come from a south asian country and the south asians i think are beautiful don't fall in their opinion. likewise vice versa. i have westernized ideals of beauty whereas they have south asian. there was a thread recently about "shahs of sunset" and people were posting that one of the characters, GG, was "ugly". i would argue that by south asian and middle eastern standards, she has some attractive characteristics. big eyes, etc. but these arenot necessarily attractive in all cultures.
I just looked up GG. She's cute.

Let me rewrite this: "I'm a bigot and that makes it difficult for me to criticize people of other races. Can anyone help?"
Oh sure, I'll help with that.

Ugly is such a horrible word. Just because one person does not find something or someone attractive, does not mean that someone else does not find it beautiful. Ugly is just so negative.

I dont understand this thread? You can tell whether any person is ugly: black, white, hispanic, gay, lesbian, jewish, catholic, etc?
Its not even about outward appearence its about a persons preference and also if they are a stuck up ass.
Whats your deal OP? I am sure you are going to run and hide and not comment again but I am truly curious what the hell you are asking for?

OP, are you seriously saying you can't discern or evaluate facial features of persons of any race or ethnicity but your own? Perhaps you have a neurological problem. I'm serious. Facial recognition disorders have been examined in detail by neurologist Oliver Sacks. If you can't appreciate facial features, really, see a neurologist.

Funny looking, yes.
But if she's what's considered ugly, most people are too.
In reality, most people are average, while few a truly ugly or beautiful.
