This post seriously annoys me. Arrogance and zealous behavior all over the place. Oh, and I have a question for you objectivists.

If everything has objective attributes, then explain to me what objective beauty is. Because... really... I haven't yet experienced objective beauty. For instance, I can tell a friend of mine how I find this particular girl really beautiful, and he can respond to me with "Nah, she's nothing out of the ordinary", whereas he can say that some other girl is really beautiful, and I might disagree with him with that particular girl. This also goes with arts, such as music. What is objectively beautiful music? I happen to like music that others find horrible. And some people like Hip-hop, which just... disgusts me mostly.

So... tell me. What's objective beauty?
