Beautiful.

Do women judge their standard of beauty by Society's views?
" How could she think this!?" You ask. "I dress for myself" you say. "The women in magazines ARE beautiful!" you may tell me. Well darlings, here are my reasons.

1. ... I know you're all super confident about your bodies and all, but seriously. Society teaches that clothes = bad. Sex = good.

2. Who do we see in magazines? Who are we taught to see as beautiful. "Perfect" women. You know the type. Skinny, large chests, tall, superstar smiles, lots of smokey makeup. Right, beautiful women and role models right there.

3. Okay so. Makeup? yea. We like it heavy on the eyes. Because thats "hot". We tell each other that. We tell ourselves that. Guess who else we hear it from? Oh right.

Alright. Three ideas. ANYWAY. We don't consider ourselves beautiful because society has taught us that we aren't. People who are irregular, big noses, large foreheads, athletic shapes, a little healthy pudge, eyes that are a different shape, an interesting skin color, all of these things are taught to be "undesirable". In reality though, if we were to think for ourselves, we might come to see these things as the most beautiful things about a person, because they make them who they are.

We're taught to ignore personality and see people for their looks alone. You see a woman with small eyes and a big nose and see her as ugly. You talk to her, and you find an intelligent mind and a sweet personality. If you get to know her, you'd find out she sings and its breathtaking. Or draws and it's beautiful. But, because of society's views of beauty, you might not ever take the time to get to know her, because she becomes less of a person because of her lack of "perfection" and you'd miss out on meeting an amazing person.

Okay. What do you think is beautiful? Leave a comment describing please :]
