If no one received any clues or direction on what beauty was, would they come to a conclusion on their own what beauty is?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) September 5th, 2015

Even though people have various things in which they find beautiful or pleasant looking, society inadvertently always gives unavoidable clues, such as a large nose, buck teeth, missing teeth, no teeth, small beady eyes, big feet, fat, etc. are unattractive. If one never received those clues, or any other clues that said this is pretty, that is ugly, would it be like smells where your nose tells you a skunk or rotting cabbage is not pleasant (unless you build a tolerance for it), but a rose/flower, pine trees, etc. usually is pleasant to smell? If no one was told sunsets are beautiful, would they find it beautiful by self-discovery, etc.?
