BEAUTY... a topic. That I've discussed before but today. today...... has pushed me to the end. Self worth our self worth as women has been degraded because of the view of society on physical feautures and I mean it! What is beauty.... how is a person beautiful. How on earth can a person sit here and tell me what makes a girl beautiful. How can anyone sit there and tell you how your beautiful??? I'm infuriated. 50 years ago in Korea having a circular face and slanted eyes was beautiful. Now one in 10 adults have plastic surgery to "westernize" their features. sooooo what will happenm 50 years from now what will be considered beautiful or should I say who will be considered beautiful
but the part that infuriates me the most is that I've fallen for it. I've fallen for whats beautiful in society's eyes. I've looked in the mirror and thought that " maybe if my cheeks weren't so fat." or "my eyes less squinty" even" is only my head wasn't so big"
"then what Gaby?"
"Then maybe I'd be pretty."
That is sad. To be honest I've never really let it bother me that much before but this summer. being straight forward. One of my closest friends is "gorgeous" The big eyes and long lashes, narrow nose and angular jaw beautiful hair.
tell me why we can both do the same thing and one person gets slack and the othe person gets hated on when they both state a very honest opinion?
I guess life isn't fair but now my self esteem is going down. Today at church I snapped at this woman for calling a friend "pretty" for some reason I felt if another had walked down the hall who was quite the plain jane she would not have said a word.
because in her mind that isn't beautiful
maybe it makes me the most angry cuz ithappens at church. the one place where an outer appearence shouldn't matter and the inner should.
of course God ttalks about beauty in the bible. Remember Esther. Gorgeous gal. saved her country partially on her looks
why do black women go thru all that pain of relaxing their hair. whats wrongwith their natural hair. whats wrong with my natural. why isn't my hair beautfil. by telling another person they r the prettiest eva. where does that leave the rest of us
I have suddenly been made inferior
ANYONE WHO READS THS.. I WAS VENTING AND I DIDN'T WANT TO POST THIS..BUT IT'S INTERESTING FOR THOUGHT THIS WAS A WHILE AGOOOOOOO
