"Female beauty is an objective phenomenon, a very real part of reality, one which can not only be perceived by all people, but measured as well. [...] "Female beauty is the representation of our values, in a woman. When we see a lady who embodies or appears to embody our values we find her beautiful. For example, if a woman appears to be happy, healthy, and intelligent, and if we value these things, we will find her more beautiful than a woman who doesn't." [...] " Measuring female beauty requires us to count the number of our values a woman's appearance represents. Measuring it objectively, however, requires that we count the number of objective values a woman embodies or appears to. " [...] "And notice further that those who claim there is no objective beauty or values, also claim that there is no such thing as objective reality."
I find the concepts of The Amazon and The Little Boy put the idea of objective beauty versus non-objective beauty in a readily graspable form. [...] "Notice that we find Princess Diana close to one end of the beauty scale and Mother Theresa on the other. The reasons for this is that Princess Diana represents rationality over Mother Theresa's mysticism. Diana represents the pursuit of values, while Mother Theresa represents their sacrifice. Diana is pretty. Mother Theresa is ugly. Diana represents the value of life on earth. Mother Theresa represents the idea that the earth is a pesthole. Diana represents happiness. Mother Theresa represents suffering. Diana represents an independent earth-grounded spirit and generous benevolence towards others. Mother Theresa represents servitude to others under the weight of an incomprehensible supernatural authority. Princess Diana is tall. Mother Teresa is short."
