The famous Afghan Girl photo, that has became famous all over the world as a symbol of afghan people, owe its popularity to the fact that the girl portrayed has green eyes.
Green eyes are striking beautiful, and catch the attention of the observer a lot more than black one's does. Also, they are unusual for a middle eastern woman.
Were her eyes brown she would not have became so famous all over the world.
So, in the end, my point: traits associated with western ideals are indeed more beautiful and considered beautiful all over the world.
