I find a much higher percentage of people outside the US as being more attractive. I think it has a lot to do with just being healthier and eating better. Every time I visit someplace, it’s the first thing I always notice. That and how much cleaner they keep places.
Being healthy, of course, does contribute to one’s attractiveness.
But human beauty is really too subjective.
We may dislike people seeming familiar. We may like people seeming familiar more.
We may like people similar to us in appearance. We may particularly dislike people similar to us in appearance.
Also clothes affect people’s appearance quite a lot. If people in the area you do shopping for clothes are in average less like you in appearance and weight and everything, and people in some other area more, you might find them more attractive simply because the choice of clothes is a bit better, and the habit of wearing better fitting clothes.
And another very important component is what you expect to see. I mean, “how much cleaner they keep places” … which countries have you visited?
I actually have had a theory since my teens (as an autistic kid with idiots for parents, disgusting school and so on, so some need to escape that), that German music and German visual design feel so clean and attractive in a very vanilla way, because that’s what was the prestigious kind of culture for the British Empire in its prime and till WWI, and that survived by inertia even a couple decades past Germans having their teeth kicked in during WWII.
What we feel to be most classical is German music, German philosophy, German perception of military history, German ideological approaches to politics (today’s left-wing movements are still mostly that or at least track their lineage to that, and today’s right-wing movements may have kinda diverged, but still like to fuzzily hint at one Austrian painter), and German visual design (what’s considered “neutral” today, fonts like Helvetica, the way accents are made, etc).
What I’m coming at - common perception of human beauty in the West may be kinda affected by typical German appearance, that specifically, more than by typical French or typical British or typical Italian appearance.
Is this an ad? Because everyone in that photo is unreasonably attractive.
No. It’s a real photo.

This is questionable.
Whatever artifacts might be there… it’s a real photo. I know the guy who was carried away.
Think Pepsi is trying to solve racism again lmao
When have Germans ever been racist?

Canada, New Zealand, and Japan. I’m sure plenty don’t apply to the cleaner statement, but these places were really nice.

I don’t know much about German music but Rammstein is good
As a former fan I have to admit that Till Lindemann is a disgusting person
