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.
