What we as modern society think helen of troy looks like

Homer left Helen of Troy's face entirely undescribed, allowing every reader to project their own culture's ideal onto her. Yet when adaptation choices challenge our mental templates, many mistake their conditioned beauty standards for historical fact. Why do we so easily mistake the images we were taught to praise for universal truths?
