Theory of beauty

Hi guys!

Sometime ago I watched a very interesting video called Darwinian theory of beauty by Denis Duton. The theory talks about why we consider something beautiful. Denis begins by denying that the reason is the culture to which we belong, in other words, he doesn't believe that our culture is responsible for deciding whether something is beautiful or not. According to the theory the origin of our taste for beauty comes from  a million years ago, in the age of the first humans (like Flintstones,  It’s a kidding ). So according to Darwin's theory, human evolution is responsible for our trends for beauty. Our ancestors expressed their feelings in objects when there didn't have  a language, that is amazing, can you believe it?. After watching the video I kept thinking and I really think that is an interesting theory, I mean, why not?, anything is possible, and since our genetics is what determines most of our physical and intellectual qualities, is quite credible.

Well that's my opinion, if you want to know more about the subject, you should watch the video, it is very didactic and entertaining, you can also write your comment.

Until the next post,

See you
