In the U.S., at least, looks and character are not generally considered intertwined. | |
| Aug 12, 2012 at 9:22 | comment | added | Yoichi Oishi | @J.R.In Japanese notion, looks and character correlate each other because looks is representation of character as our adages go - ‘Man is responsible for his face’ and ‘Man’s face is (represents for) his personal history after 40 of age. Are looks and character totally separate subjects or issues in western notion? | |
