How you compare and contrast the thought of beauty with Plato and diotima?

As far as I can remember, Socrates is prone to thoughts about youths with beautiful bodies, for Diotima beauty is a schematic process (progress), a growth in aesthetic taste that culminates in the discovery of the final secrets of beauty. By this I'm supposing she means the 'form' of beauty.
