    I frankly don’t usually agree with Hollywood

    I said fiction, not Hollywood. And yes you can have your own preferences, I’m not saying that you can’t, just that what we call mainstream is the representation of objective beauty.

    those ideas are becoming even more narrow and specific over time

    Depending on who you ask, somebody would tell you it’s the contrary.

      Beauty can be only subjective by definition.

        Nope, facial and body symmetry can determine if someone is considered universally beautiful.

        And it’s not limited to humans, animals and plants can be considered universally beautiful.

        The sea and the starry sky, a sunset, the moon etc, if it moves emotion within you then it’s beautiful, and there are things that move the world entirely.

          Facial and body symmetry is ugly or at least scary. You’ve just never seen people with that.

          Other than that - beauty is by definition your own opinion on whether something looks good or bad. If there’s a single person in the world who disagrees - then it’s not universal. If there is none, but there may be the next moment - then it’s not universal.

          and there are things that move the world entirely

          Nothing moves the world entirely. Majority vote doesn’t apply here and even the 3 (or up to 7, whatever) sigma rule doesn’t.

              Take a sufficiently well-centered photo, leave only the left or the right half, and replace the other one with its mirrored version. Then honestly say whether what you see is beautiful or ugly.

              If you know that, just walk around here trolling, then bon appetit and ignore my advice.
