Default Beauty = just a set of math?

I read somewhere (forgot where) that we humans (men only?) judge beauty by a certain set of mathematical formula in relation to the size, distance, and other various measurement of the facial features. We don't know it, but our brain automatically calculate a very complex formula and create a feedback.

So if we took a large sample of beautiful women's features, take a population mean of those features, wouldn't we be able to come up with a certain criteria for beauty within a reasonable percentage of confidence expressed in a mathematical formula?

armed with that knowledge, plastic surgeons the world over will start to perform eye relocation procedures...." if we just move your right eye over 0.214 mm left and 0.72 down...you'll be a knockout." damn, and me without a medical license.

I read that somewhere as well. . . Whereas I'm a sucker for a pretty face, the reality is that at somepoint I don't care how pretty a women's face is. . . If she's packing on enough pounds, she will definitely lose the attractiveness battle. . .
