How beauty standards affects our minds

 How beauty standards  affects our minds :

What's Beauty standards :

beauty standards are a set of things to tell whether this person is pretty enough or not . It differs from one community to another .

 how beauty standards affects teens

people became  obsessed with fitting and suiting the  beauty standards in a very creepy way .

Teens especially start to doubt themselves and the way they look , and in order to be pretty enough they start wearing makeup at an early age , they freak out whenever a pimple appears in them faces , because they see a flawless skin on instagram   little they know that it's all fake and it's just a filter . 

how beauty standards affects adults:

Adults on the other hand are no better than teens when it comes to beauty, especially women. They start doing plastic surgeries to look younger and better , big lips , big eyes … to the limit that they look all the same as a Barbie doll ! same body shape , same face features . Mothers also ! they get ashamed because they have some birth stretch marks , as if it's something weird or ugly to have them , stretch marks are a sign of beauty , a sign that this woman created a baby out of her womb , ain't that magical? Why does she have to be ashamed of it ? . beauty standards are not stable, it changes all the time , having a skinny body is very essential to be called "pretty" . Some started  killing themselves with an unhealthy diet just to look like Instagram models ! it's really crazy , then the fashion of having a somewhat plump body appeared, so women rushed to  do surgeries and fill the feminine areas in their bodies, ignoring its danger to their health just to look like kardashians!!

who invented beauty standards?:

  It's all a marketing campaign. When they want to sell a product they change the beauty standards and promote their products by changing the concept of being pretty just trying to make you doubt yourself, that's all .  And it happens also in movies where the crush of all the students is blondie and for sure skinny and whenever they want to change an ugly girl they remove her glasses as if wearing glasses makes you look ugly , so you just think about it , people who wear glasses start to doubt themselves and wear contact lenses just to look pretty regardless of the negative effects of wearing them for a long time . Now I'm not against wearing contact lenses or something. In fact  it's good to take care of yourself and change your style and all of that but also you need to know if this change you're going to do for yourself or just to fit in and please the others ? it's useless to compare yourself with social media  influencers , this will only lower your self-esteem and depress you , the only person you should compare yourself to is you ! That's how you keep progressing , and  remember that all the people are pretty including you , and there are no specific standards for beauty , in fact beauty should always be unconditional and free from any marketing standards .
