  • the irony is that by claiming thick is more beautiful than thin you are just creating a new ideal.

  • @Castaril But I never did that, I just suggested that thick is also beautiful.

  • I like thining about that idea; of a blind persons perception of beauty.

    Thanks

  • Beauty is what the patient sees in the carer, what the child sees in the loving parent, what the lover sees in the loved. Beauty is what even the blind can see.

  • The Problem is, the standards of what is ' beautiful' have already been defined in the form of celebrities,singers.And unfortunately if we don't look like them, (which is fairly obvious we won't unless we are an identical twin or something like that) then we are committed to a life of misery. Unless, we use our brains and don't buy into this nonsense.As women we are exploited on so many levels.I can't change my genetic makeup, and no amount of clinique is going to enhance or alter that!

  • great !!

  • great video! this is totally true. i think confidence, bravery, and a sparkling personality make you more attractive and appealing than a gorgeous face :)

  • I've got to say, the most beautiful women I've met are not physically attractive in the mass media accepted sense of the word but to hear them speak or read their words is to expeience lasting beauty. It truly is on the inside. To hell with appealing to men's eyes, we just perpetuate the vicious cycle of our quest for beauty.

    The Beauty Myth is an excellent book for anyone considering a new perspective on beauty.

  • Beauty is irrelevant.
