Physical symmetry is over-rated, though of course in those studies of attractiveness in faces, people always like the most symmetrical ones best.

Also many forms of symmetry that aren't bilateral (I particularly like helical symmetry). <br /><br />Likewise, I believe there are many ways to have a balanced mind even when it may appear off-kilter to many! In fact, the brain itself is not bilaterally symmetrical, even though it looks so (roughly) from the outside. So there, symmetricists!Curious Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01180271950246123614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1430705227241644832.post-63425673635707902662012-05-04T15:06:14.029-04:002012-05-04T15:06:14.029-04:00It's interesting; this guy is definitely asymm...It's interesting; this guy is definitely asymmetrical, but his physical mass looks almost balanced.

OCD types love the number three, and I noticed on a site his username has '3's on either side of it. <br /><br />Now if we're talking about teeter-totters, that's a different story...Ted Blackmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11109287673051607031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1430705227241644832.post-37286688297029552372012-05-03T19:33:10.278-04:002012-05-03T19:33:10.278-04:00Although not symmetrical, he's got that golden...Although not symmetrical, he's got that golden mean thing going for him.
