http://beautyideals.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 14, 2008. Kalokagathia in ancient Greece was ideal physical and moral beauty. Coming from two words, kalos meaning beautiful(outward) and noble(inward), and agthos, meaning noble, courageous, worhty of admiration. It involves notions of symmetry important to Greeks. Plato believed that which is beautiful can only be good, and vice versa. Plotinus followed Plato's ideas and said that "beauty is that which irradiates symmetry rather than symmetry itself.".

Friday, April 9, 2010. Aztec Beauty- born "without a face". In the Aztec understanding of the world, people would enter the world “without a face”.

100 Ideals of Beauty: Modern Popular Beauty Standards
http://beautyideals.blogspot.com/2010/04/modern-popular-beauty-standards.html
Tuesday, April 6, 2010. Modern Popular Beauty Standards. Beauty as typically portrayed in the pop media, womens’ magazines and mens’ magazines, gossip magazines, Hollywood etc. The emphasis on the superficial is often criticized, although by definition the same could be said of any physical standard of beauty.
