Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Okay. So most beholders I assume are polite in expressing their reactions to people they just meet. Most people beheld by the beholder will never know true reactions.

For me, I notice I tend to have strong reactions to someone else’s appearance. While I’m walking around in public and notice someone whom I behold as either beautiful, ugly, or so-so, my internal monologue runs rampant with opinions.

How active is your internal monologue when you behold someone else’s appearance? Does your reaction ever surprise or embarrass you?
