Beauty standards
This judgmental society always have some certainties for everything and so for the beauty standards. This not only include girls but also boys. The most important fact is that women are criticized more because of this beauty standards.
This society always expect women to be thinned, light skinned and more curvy at certain ratios. This beauty trend keeps changing time by time.
Most of the women strive to maintain the uncertain beauty standards set by the society.
Most of the women, men, girls and boys fell into this unrealistic beauty standards by the extended use of social media. Those influencers of social media promote various products with the help of their beauty. And we people also fell into these fake advertisements. There are some netizens who criticize the social media and cine field fame, when they cross the beauty standards. They criticize them until or unless they change them back to the previous structure or kill themselves.
We may hear that ‘appearances are deceptive’, but we follow them and them in our life? We all judge people by their appearance. Due to this behavior of the society most of the introverts, who`s self-esteem level is low afraid to move forward and show up in front of the society. They afraid whether they may be criticized because of their appearance and beauty standards.
Now a days we forget the phrase, ‘don`t judge the book by its cover’. whether the person male or female, thick or thin, light skinned or dark skinned, they are beautiful by their heart and by their thoughts.
I end by saying that, we people should now the reality that these beauty standards even not a standard one. It keeps changing. The trend which had been during our grand parents’ generation are not as same as the one in our parents’ generation and in our generation. Don`t believe in these fake beauty standards. BEAUTY LIES IN THE HEART!
