beauty standards should have never been a thing. Why does this even exists?
Because People made this schtick happen
started with survival mostly.
bigger teets meant more milk, wider hips meant less chance of death during childbirth.
and it all kinda just evolved from there.
The only way people are gonna shed beauty standards is if we shed a mortal form and sentience. really.
yes but now everything abt beauty standards went way off script bc of lu$t
Even if we, as a species, are advanced enough to change our appearance, beauty standards will still be a thing.
that is true
we can tho in a way
Lust is just the biological urge and temptation to breed, which means it's not off-script.
everyone has a breeding kink, it comes free with your human sentience and life.
if u really think abt it
facts
but what i was really tryna get out there is that pretty privilege sucks n ik for damn sure its not gonna change unless ur handsome or pretty bc ppl literally missed out opportunities just bc they not pleasing to look at why does one have to be hot in order to get someting they've dreamt abt or worked hard for
uk?
n the sad part ts not gonna get better only worse
Yeah you guys are right
Most people are luster now
What r ur thoughts on this
O
I mean yes
People should be focusing on how to be more kind and all
Yes literally dont judge the book by its cover
Yeah yeah
But who's gonna stop them
Noone actually
That's life
Not much one can do about it but temper their own expectations aig
Or we cld just slime out everyone n be over with it this hell hole needs a factory reset anyways
Then again i love humans sometimes they so funny
I love this idea, thats exactly what i was thinking
It exists because of the need for economic growth
It’s subjective for everyone
My philosophy is feel good look good
I think beauty standards really started to come out when the economy started focusing on women centered products to push marketing
The zoom into womens and insecurities that shouldn't even be insecurities
Just to make profits
I like that
Feeling good is the best confidence
Tbh no clue how it started
Real i always wondwr what might have happened if it never existed
Companies usually use it to market against insecure people
Yh that makes sense
Plastic surgery is still kind of massive 🙂 anyway
Only ugly people want to remove beauty standards
Just like how fat girls want to be models
Or be called plus size instead of fat
Don’t be delusional
well then just don't make a "thing" of it and move on 
Beauty standards effect everyone not just people you dont find attractive lol
