I was reading somewhere that intelligence, like any other human feature, is distributed on a bell curve (according to IQ tests - although those are subject to debate as to whether those truly do measure intelligence but...). By any other feature they must mean attractiveness too? I couldn't find a definitive source, however. So, is attractiveness distributed on a bell curve?

  1. Most things tend towards a central "norm" with most members of a population close to it, and a few far away (making the bell).  However ,since attractiveness cannot really be quantified as a number, you couldn't plot it.


  2. No. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and what society as a whole agrees to.
