I think I might have this too, because I'm often attracted to people that others tell me are ugly. I also struggle to recognize someone if they alter something about their regular appearance (like not wearing a hat when they normally do, for example), unless I know them on a personal basis.

FWIW I can still tell the difference between a 8/10 and a 3/10 when it comes to attractiveness. But my scale seems different from others. I actually find people that are usually considered a 10/10 to be less beautiful than a solid 7. There is a threshold where a person becomes "too pretty", and I'm repulsed by it.

This is more common than you might think. There's a reason "the girl next door" is one of the most popular archetypes.

I can certainly relate. I do not have the traditional sense of what is beauty and what is not. I tend to also gravitate toward more natural beauty; i.e., little-to-no make-up, natural breast (even if they are small), normal fitting clothing, those damn filters on photos.

Not only is it a double standard (how would society look upon men who stuffed their pants), it doesn’t help with my inability to easily distinguish who you are out of a crowd of other people.

Implant technology has come so far that you wouldn't recognize actual normal sized implants in people. It's only the huge huge ones that stretch the skin to the limiit that you could point out. Even the material they use now feels very similar to actual breasts and have a similar shape than what they did a decade ago.

I've met a couple people who have modern ones and it's crazy how good they are now a days.
