What's one beauty standard that you don't agree with?
-
Not everyone is beautiful. Most people are average and many are not attractive.
Obesity is not beautiful. It is unhealthy and honestly delusional.
Edit: Most people are thinking of this when mentioning obesity.

Not this.

Complaining about the BMI scale is a disservice to those who truly need to lose weight for their health.
My brother is obese and also one of the fittest people I know. He can walk miles without breaking a sweat, no high blood pressure, no high cholesterol, heart is doing fine, no arthritis, etc. ad nauseum. He's fat because he eats a lot, but everything he eats is home cooked with plenty of veg and little meat. He just loves cooking.
My doc said the other day she prefers it when her patients are heavier, because when people get very sick, it's the "healthy" thin ones who die first in the ICU purely because they don't have any fat to spare.

Thick butts. No thank you. A little bump is nice, but most of what's out there is gross, and with a surface resembling asteroid impact craters.
Well, that's me out then.
Thank God.

Long hair.
Shorter is better.
I agree. Then again, I'm a certified lesbian.

thanks to all the men in the comments providing women with a free incel blocklist. your opinion may be useless, but at least no one appreciates you.
God forbid that people have opinions... Life could be fun, but we don't want that! Seriously, your only reason for existence on social media seems to make other people's day worse. That is miserable.

welcome to the evening news, man creates thread so he can bitch about Black women. more at 5 when he phones back in to say how he's entitled to his opinion.
Go outside and get a life. How can you be so miserable.

Tabs over spaces, always
... wait, you're asking in asklemmy, not programming...
Uhhh... that thing where people glue little strands of hair to their forehead in an arc
I am more into spaces, but as long as the indentation is done consistently i can tolerate tabs.

Filler and injections.

Not a beauty standard per se, but I don’t like tattoos one bit.
It used to be “rebellious” to have a tattoo, but nowadays it seems like everyone has one - so maybe the truly rebellious thing now is not having them.
I don't think tattoos have been about rebellion in a long time. It's just art for your body.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]When they're done badly, it's very noticeable and terrible. When they aren't done, it's fine. Not everybody is looking for curves and puffy lips. Presumably, there's a bunch of successful injections you never notice, but on the balance that's not a very good record.

Depends on your background. If you're from a Jewish or Muslim family pearls will be clutched.

My favorite people, and probably yours too are not 10/10 hotties. The people I want to spend time with are funny and kind.
Chasing 'beauty standards', I feel, is a waste of your human potential. That time can be better used building friendships and community. Isn't that what most people really want?
If people focused their time there instead, maybe they would feel more accepted, confident and worthy instead of trying to shortcut their way to perceived success by altering their bodies. I find it sad that the digital age has pushed humanity so deeply in to 'comparative society'.
Confidence is the hottest most attractive thing to me in the end.
It can go too far in the opposite direction, though. I was raised in an environment where men doing literally anything besides showering a bit was gay.

Tabs were literally designed for indenting, as far as I can tell.

Beards. I never understood why some women find it so sexy. But I am okay with people having different tastes. What is icky is that some women have made such a huge deal about them that it gets borderline unfair for men who don’t want to bother with grooming or those who cannot grow a full beard.

TIL that's a thing. Beard culture mostly feels like men competing against and/or encouraging other men. And old ladies are pretty direct about fucking hating them.

Do you mean styling baby hairs?
Yes! Thats it!

Lol you're catching some votes but we've strayed from what OP was asking.
OP asking about beauty standards and people are straight up saying shit like "overalls" and "big boobs".
Not bad opinions on their own but far from beauty standards

How dehydrated does a person have to be before they start absorbing water through the skin?
I'm going to guess literally dead. Human skin isn't very permeable, by design.

What always disturbs me, and it seems worryingly prevalent on The Apprentice, is drawn-on eyebrows.
On the one hand, it does look weird up close, or if done poorly. On the other I can see the potential in being able to have whatever kind of eyebrows you want to go with your look.

Where can one get certified? Asking for a friend.
