Physical attractiveness is the degree to which a person's physical features are considered
aesthetically pleasing or
beautiful. The term often implies
sexual attractiveness or desirability, but can also be distinct from the two. There are many factors which influence one person's attraction to another, with physical aspects being one of them. Physical attraction itself includes universal perceptions common to all human
cultures, as well as aspects that are culturally and
socially dependent, along with individual subjective preferences.
