I can't comprehend that, I don't even know what that would mean. The idea of 'pretty' requires a joint perception between the person viewing and the person being viewed.

I still can't comprehend this independent of society. What determines if you like or don't like yourself in the mirror? Fuckin other people man. If you were a wolf child raised after the apocalypse you think you'd be like 'hmm my hips are a lil fat'

I think it’s possible a person can want to “be pretty” for their own satisfaction, not to please others, despite the fact that their own idea of “pretty” is to a certain extent conditioned by society. The goal would be “I meet *my* ideal” even though it is part social construct.
