A brazilian magazine at it this week brings an unusual test to measure the IQ of the beauty of the reader. I, a mixture of vanity, curiosity, and especially the lack of what to do, I submitted to not know how many questions of this test. Obvious result: the beauty of my IQ is not the same as Brad Pitt ...
Perhaps too much importance given to beauty, which so fascinates us, expresses more than the desire to be loved and accepted, a desire for simplification. As if she was capable of the miracle of eternal happiness, a fictional counterpoint to all our troubles. Beauty offers beauty. Those who wish to relate to it more than that will be frustrated.
But back to the test, in addition to its shallowness and fragility, he neglects other human characteristics that make someone beautiful like love, kindness, wisdom, friendship, intelligence, warmth, charisma, etc.. Physical beauty is wonderful but perishable, whereas the beauty that is not seen, whose passage of time only magnifies, is much more beautiful.
