Dear All,
I believe I joined this club because I needed to say what I think without someone rolling their eyes at me or thinking that I’m crazy. In fact, just the ability to speak even this one short message will make all this effort worth it. Obviously, I love a somewhat larger nose on women and this for me is beautiful. Maybe it is because they have the opposite of what I have which is a more smallish nose that fits certain classical conventions of shape and balance. Maybe it’s a Freudian thing (my mom has a larger nose—or it’s childhood imprinting). Maybe its because I’m eccentric and I live my life living outside the box, never falling for what my friends perceived as ‘beauty.’ And what is beauty anyway except for how those who view it interpret it?
Around my teen years I began to realize that my tastes did not conform to what American society told me was beauty in a woman’s face. I especially did not find the button nose satisfying. Now don’t get me wrong, I realize that for others this is beautiful and from their vantagepoint this is absolutely correct. I’m not negating what others believe to be true, but I am asserting that from my beliefs one should respect me and what I find is aesthetically pleasing to the eye. When one of my friends heard me call a certain woman beautiful that did not fit their culturally enforced standard and especially BECAUSE they had a rather prominent nose, I was ridiculed, made to feel bad for my beliefs, and told I should change my tastes. I wish to balance the scale here and articulate that women with grander noses are not only beautiful, but, for me, the very epitome of exquisiteness of both shape and form.
Now like all living and breathing human beings, I don’t find every large nose beautiful, just as someone who likes small noses doesn’t relish every pimple-sized mound on a person’s face. Our tastes are always varied. But I’m yearning for the entire ‘large nose’ category to be recognized in general as potentially beautiful. I wish I could see more largely and lovely nosed women on TV, in film and in magazines. Haven’t you noticed that most standard women’s magazines neglect larger noses? I live in California, and there is this clothing magazine called Newport News and you will not find any large nosed models (nor a single one with short hair either). I’m sort of joking, but it’s like a conspiracy. Apparently for their model selection, the big nose category is out.
As for my peculiar tastes from those you might know—or who you’ve seen—I find Siouxsie Sioux’s nose beautiful beyond words—Sarah Jessica Parker is another, Melina from Providence a third. I’m not limited to age, since I believe Anjelica Huston is most lovely. But I like others who are not recognized with much larger noses than that! I have found myself admiring and dating women more from India, the Middle East and around the southern Mediterranean (Greece, Italy, Spain) just for the fact that many living here seem to be a nose ahead of many other areas. And I absolutely love large noses that are pierced—most wonderful to adorn such a lovely form with the kiss of jewelry. In my mental projection (not the realm of absolute fact but of atmospheric perception), a large nose on a woman displays sharp confidence, firmness, exoticness, and boldness. In feel, you have this wonderful extra flesh and there is nothing better than kissing a blossoming nose, moving ones lips about the nostrils, and feeling the warmth of this form against the side of one’s cheek. There simply are more angles to kiss—more face to love and admire. When I see a woman with a great nose filled with various angles I say: “What beautiful nose architecture!” A woman is more than their nose, but we are talking beauty here and what I appreciate in physical form. Blessings, Artemidoros

I really do agree with you...
...Sometimes people think that their there is a "standard" of beauty, that is set for society. But there isn't. Beauty is something that is totally opinionated, hense- "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". |

Thank you for your kind words. As an artist in heart, shape and form are important to me and so the bigger the shape the better since you can do more with it. I do see it as 'nose architecture', but it is potentially 'nose art' as well. I wrote as few additional thoughts on the other board too if you wish to read them. I'm glad I found this site,
Blessings
