How to distinguish between coarse and refined beauty? This question, we think, torments not only us, but also many others. However, it will not only be about beauty. Let's talk about the adjective "refined" in general and discuss the quality of the personality that many people desire, and some even see it in a dream.
Value
So, how to distinguish one beauty from another? There are beautiful faces, and there are rude ones. But at the same time, the latter can be quite nice. For example, it is not customary for men to be too handsome. If a man is beautiful as a woman, then he is called “cute”, and such a characteristic among real men is not valued too highly. So the answer to the question posed at the beginning is gender. The easiest way to distinguish between coarse beauty and sophisticated by gender. Women strive for refinement, and men for brutality, but the latter does not have to be unattractive.
Of course, not only beauty is sophisticated. Therefore, let's give the meaning of the word "refined":
- Good, finely developed, refined.
- Brought to the extreme.
