It's always interesting to see how beauty standards changed back and forth through the ages and geographic areas.
Also, love the composition in the background.

[TetsuShima]

"Such a beautiful girl. I was beautiful too once, you know?"
"They say you were the most beautiful woman in the world."
"There was one other, but she was in Egypt. And, besides, she didn't last as long as I did..."
*Conversation between Augustus' wife Livia and her granddaughter Livilla in 9 A.D.*

Ava green n Sophie Marceau on the tile screen. Amazing

Female Beauty Standards: *Exist*
Ancient men: "HA! As if we had the slightest interest in sleeping with someone who is not one of our own!" 🤣🤣🤣

Frankly speaking, across all the ages you showed only one element of beauty remained constant, the beauty of spirit. And I believe that none is more beautiful than that. Spirit alone can make a hideous-looking person the most attractive person in the room.

[AutumnRed]

I don't really understand who sets these standards, when I see a woman I like I just like her no matter if she meets a modern, old or ancient standard or none of them at all, in my opinion beauty has no standards

[MaverickSeventySeven]

The statement "What constitutes female beauty" is "back to front" surely? Physiognomy resonates with an inherent 'a priori' experience of Spiritual purity manifesting as symmetry, balance and proportion of features. Each attribute being a symbolic expression of DIVINE ECCELENCE!

[sifilore]

6:20 Imperfection was the results of women's sins, so that would mean back in the day any scares from like fighting a wolf to protect her kids and lived were spiritually the reflection of her past sins. How fanatically-hypocritical could u get back in the medieval days. I found vid of modern cultural opinions of beauty around the world, and unibrows is in one part of the Earth.
Next vid, narrator of See U in History / Mythology, pls make of men's beauty history.

[jennybrown]

So ovid was essentially the cosmo magazine of his day

[lyrigageforge]

Video lacks detailed information. As there is such for example to be found about medieval women. Like that they preferred pear-shape and that women would pick off their hair at the front to make larger forehead for beauty's sake. Or if one went back into ancient times the Greek would value male body as more attractive one over female. At least so through what was verbally or by imagery idealized more - which is not to say that certain features would not have been considered more attractive in women. Just saying that there is more to the matter.

Beauty standards never changed it only got better (or worse) when they had the more or less means tot change there appearance men are men just like women are women dont make it harder as it has two be.

Exeptions just inforce the rule so anekdotes are meaningles

[containedhurricane]

Now Caucasian beauty and sexiness are still the trendsetter, but Koreans start to spread their influence

[kimberlyperrotis]

Turn down, or even better, turn off the music! It’s intrusive.

[rahuldilip]

Yeah there should only be 1 standard for beauty...its on the inside..in the heart of the person.

[sirvazo]

And this has all lead to the pinnacle in female beauty; duck lips 😂

[IrvineTruth]

Has the narrator heard of a pronunciation guide?? Amateur mistakes.

[Simpleguy]

It is generally accepted that Aishwarya Rai and Angelina Jolie are two of the most beautiful women of all time. But one beauty is very underappreciated and that is Eva Green. In my humble opinion Eva Green has most beautiful eyes of all time.

[russianhomecat]

Caucasian classical beauty is forever. Nothing has changed over centuries. Pale skin, blue eyes, fair hair are combined with classic facial features ❤❤❤ This type is the most sought after.

[TrueInvisible]

all women you named in the start of the video, i don't know any of them.
tanned skin is disgusting why do you see beauty in skin cancer?
blonde hair is not bad, but it's not the best.
so summary ..
throughout history beauty was seen in the face, the hair, and nothing below the head.. funny how nowadays women choose their "default head" to be their butts.
after all .. in the history people respected decentcy and formalities, unlike nowaday's nudity, beastial craving for baineless intimacy, and overall concentration over degeneracy..
i guess for each their values .. those who value family and house building saw beauty up in the sky, those who value trash and anarchy, saw beauty above their toilets .. both are "types" of faces.. one gives you kisses, speaks, and s lovely to look at, and the other that nowadays people worship .. gives you farts, turds, and with enough luck, some other stomach turning trash. ..

[shortshala]

Now most ppl jux wanna look like a black woman
