Why are freckles considered beautiful?

Question

johnmspaghetti · Accepted Answer

The same reason people love to see tattoos on a body. Most people believe that bodies are like blank canvases and that that'd be an amazing place to display some art.

And yes, manmade art can often be amazing to look at, there's also a lot of beauty to be found in the natural world. For example, everything relating to the "golden ratio" and Fibonacci models - pinecones and sunflowers and spiral seashells - are seen as inspiringly beautiful.

So put those two concepts together and you have an explanation; natural art found on the human canvas makes for something beautiful to behold.

Related to natural art but unrelated to freckles; I have a female friend who is a redhead, but she has an albino birthmark on the top of her head near the front, which means her hair in that spot grows out bleach white. Nature has gifted her with red hair and a natural streak of white hair that frames her face, almost exactly like everyone's favorite X-Man Rouge. (and yeah, now that I remember, she has freckles besides) if that's not beauty found in nature, I dunno what counts.

Depends on the freckles. Sometimes they convey a sort of fresh faced youth and that can be attractive.

However, sometimes - and I don't mean to be unkind to the young lady in the photo, but as they do in her case - they look like the early stages of leprosy. (It may have helped if the camera had pulled back to give the viewer some sense of context.)

Too much of a good thing is not necessarily a good thing.

I don't know but since they're desired now I wish o had them. I use to have them when I was a child and hated them at the time. They eventually faded a little even though technically they're still there. I also have freckles on my boobs so... I don't know if that's a plus

I think that society did a little bit of conditioning with this one. I also think it has to do with the brainwashing that people correlate with lighter skin and attractiveness. If freckles are seen as beautiful why aren't numerous moles on the skin the same way?

Servus09 · Answer

Beauty is found in imperfection. If everyone had freckles, nobody would like them. If nobody had freckles, everybody would want them.

I have freckles and I don't even notice them. I do find them to be super cute on girls, though. But it's not like if you have freckles I think you're attractive, it's just a little extra icing on the cake.

ΑλεχανδροςΒλυεουινδ · Answer

I like them in general:
- Not too many.
- It's a kind of fetish, but not all men appreciate them.
- Small sized ones (they seem more feminine).
- Especially near the eyes area. On the body, meh.
- They're related to white skin, and that's the skin color I like the most.
- They look cute, not beautiful. They change with age and fakeup.
- I am freckled myself, and since I am somewhat narcissistic, I like them in women.
- They look somewhat like cute eyelashes. I don't know what it is exactly, but I feel as if they were related.

Shyguy2001 · Answer

It's something different and people love exotic things i think freckles are cute but not always, it depends on the skin tone and the intensity of the freckles. I dunno why it's kinda hard to explain i guess. People are weird. Anyway the girl in the pic looks cute and her eyes are rather beautiful, i hope those aren't lenses. Have a nice day.

EpicDweeb · Answer

They're nature's makeup. Is there any reason they WOULDN'T be considered attractive? I honestly can't comprehend why so many people dislike them along with red hair... it makes me sad cause I think they're beautiful.

Purin · Answer

It depends. Some girls with a bit freckles can be really cool. It looks like they are natural and well different. It's not your perfect complexion that most girl persue but rather a more natural way to beauty.

LegateLanius · Answer

There's more to it than that. It has a lot to do with the person. Face shape, skin tone, etc all play a roll in whether or not freckles are attractive on them or not.

I do not like freckles. Freckles are a genetic defect (uneven distribution of pigment in the skin).

For a person like me who's into 3d, it's like having a texture on your face. It's unusual, rare and unique. Everyone has a made up face, freckles are a welcome detail on a face.
