When you feel attractive to
somebody, what’s your first impression with them? Is it the beautiful face, thin
mouth, body shape, slim legs, or sparkling eyes? And what’s about animal? Which
part that they will look at or show their charisma to attractive the other?
If we talk about the peacocks, it
is well-known at spreading and shaking colorful graffiti’s tail feathers for attractive the
peahens – female peacock. The peacocks grow their train – tail fan – for mating
season and rattling them to attract a mate.
Unfortunately, the team of
biologists fitted peahens with eye-trackers to find out what they look and
their result is reported that the peahens looked from panorama
side at the lower portions of the train. That means, peacock’s tail didn’t make
interesting in female’s attention but it’s actually main cause for
predator to hunt them more easily.
Nowadays, a lot of people still
care about appearance and forget the most important thing. They should change their
bad habit such as harm their parent, steal things, jealous or make false
accusation to other people. Those things hidden inside their mind and we can’t
know from their appearance, this is the most important thing that we have to
care about.

At first, I want to tell you that I had misunderstanding with peacock train, but now your blog post make me understand more about this.
ReplyDeleteI think both appearance and personality are important. Good appearance can make people like you, but good personality can make people love you.
I agree with suwapit that both appearance and personality are important. However, traditional today make people attitude about appearance first. Everyone want to have good looking sweetheart right? So that they won't lose their face when they walk with their mate among their friends. I also agree with this. But this might cause shorter relationship, as they just look at each other appearance, not what inside. Moreover, people also interest at social status or how rich that who they like are. If someone is very handsome but lack of money, they might cut out from girls choice or just got one night. However, rich but ugly can have many sweethearts, anyways still short relationship as might got sucked money. This might cause social problem. Think about someone that both ugly and moneyless. Is it fair that they might have no love or always get one side love?
ReplyDeletePersonality can make people love you. I very agree with this. But to know someone from inside must take long time. And this long term might cause big of competitor, who might better or worse than you. For me, sincerely, I spark on appearance first, also check social status and how good in flirting. This is what I prefer. I don't mind if someone I fell in love with have bad habit and most people oppose to. It's challenging and exciting. But what I like most is not appearance, I like how natuaral that people perform as they are. Not fake. Happy and pround in themselves by heart.
As Mim suggests, what we find sexy doesn't always come with other things we value in our companions, although I suspect peacocks care more for the sex only. They've certainly invested a lot in going after it.
ReplyDeleteI might write a bit more on this interesting topic when I get back from work.
My family keeps peacocks along with an assortment of other animals. Unlike the others, the peacocks are pretty useless apart from being decorative, but they are very good at being decorative, and that has some value.
ReplyDeleteI think peacocks are edible, but we never eat them. They just have a happy life of indulgence until they die a natural death, or are perhaps put out of a miserable old age. The pigs, cattle, ducks, geese and boring chickens tend to have happy, free range lives of ease until they die more abruptly and not of natural causes at an early age.
We never eat the dogs or horses, although in some cultures these animals are also eaten - when I was new to Thailand, I was travelling in Chiangrai with my youngest brother who was here for a couple of weeks. I didn't speak Thai then, and we thought that the owner of the small restaurant we'd popped into for lunch was pushing a duck dish, so we ordered it. What arrived was definitely not duck or anything like it: he had, or course, been saying not "duck" but "dog." Having already started, we continued.
DeleteI think horse it probably eaten in Australia, but it's a specialty meat more expensive than beef. Much more common is kangaroo, which I usually have at least once on my annual visit back. Our other national symbol on the Australian Coat of Arms, the emu, is also now bred for consumption. And crocodile is also widely available today.
But this is moving on to topics that probably fit better under the discussion of Law's ideas at "Must we follow the rule of Law?"
I also used to misunderstand with peacock train too. I used to think that the one with train is a female peacock, but now I know that it isn't. Moreover, I agree that now people care about the appearance more than the others thing such as habit. For example, there was a story about the divorce of one couple. One couple was married for many years. One day the husband found out that his wife used to be unpretty and pass through plastic surgery before she met him. As a result, he filed for divorce. After I listened to this story, I think that if the husband really love his wife just the way she is, I mean not only the pretty face or apperance, they might not end up with divorce.
ReplyDeleteI think we're all preferred to look at good-looking person. Although you were right about long term relationship which have many factors involve more than just a look from the outside. Still, I suppose an appearance is important because it can create first impression and that will lead you to someone's heart easier.
