Perfect dress, perfect diet, perfect job perfect partner...perfect look, we want everything perfect.

nature have given diversified beauty with unique features to all of us. But as a human want

everything ideal, standard, so called divine.

According to a e-magazine “Now every girl is expected to have Caucasian blue eyes,

full Spanish lips, a classic button nose, hairless Asian skin with a California tan, a Jamaican

dance hall ass, long Swedish legs, small Japanese feet, the abs of a lesbian gym owner, the

hips of a nine-year-old boy, the arms of Michelle Obama, and doll tits.”

If few exceptional theories are ignored, where intelligence, thoughts and uniqueness of

appearance is also considered as beauty standards people are crazy to look beautiful. many of

women get privilege due to their look even on the profiles where it is not needed. Yes, agree

beauty industry demands certain standards what we can think again who decides what is good

what is bad. Who tell a child this is looking bad and this is looking good. We make taste, we as a

part of society segregate things and fill such bullshit in our mind. this can be understood as

human body is like hardware and whatever software you would install it would function

accordingly. We name what is salt and what is sugar among two white powders.

You might have seen many advertisements promise that being thin will solve all our problems,

or at the very least save us from the painful shame of our inadequate bodies. But women who

naturally inhabit thin also face different kind of situation, painful comments, embarrassing

suggestions and sometimes rejection –a pressure to look more “womanly,” to have wider

hips and bigger boobs and more of a butt.

Can we imagine what she feels with broken self confidence when a women with small breasts

are given padded bras or level of confidence when a women with muscular shape attacked for

being “bulky” or “masculine", while women with larger breasts are told to minimize and cover up

lest they be perceived as “slutty.”

Though there is no harm in presenting things beautifully and you give your best for a good

reason but still fake presentation of features and manipulated information can

create some serious problem and a gap in a relation, especially in the country like India where

arrange marriages are still in trend.

Beauty has no fixed definition, the beauty of uniqueness and rareness of appearance can be

celebrated with positive and inclusive attitude. There is need to re define and elaborate beauty

standards rather than comparing.
