Abstract
Physical appearance has always played a major role in the perception of other people. The very appearance of a person affects the image people can create about them. In addition to the various stereotypes that may arise solely from one's appearance, the linguistic description of the same is also of great importance. This paper analyses the influence of gender in the realm of perceiving, but also describing one’s physical appearance. It introduces examples of several studies which showcase how and in what way gender differences are manifested in the perception of others, more precisely their appearance. Upon that follows the analysis of the language men and women use when describing one’s physical appearance combined with the analysis of a list of gender-based linguistic terms and expressions. The entire paper is finalized through a questionnaire which brings a firm conclusion on the hypotheses based on gender differences in the perception and description of physical appearance.
