        Yea. There is “having personal tastes” but a lot of these comments are just straight up judgmental of other people’s choices of personal expression and using this post as an excuse to espouse some pretty harmful rhetoric.

    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.

    Ultra low body fat, e.g. high fashion models, body builders. You don’t see it that much in real life, but it’s pretty heavily promoted in media.

        Yeah, and especially mental health. Not many people are really going to go that far (it’s a LOT of effort), but it’s so unattainable that even fit people often don’t feel good about themselves. Especially if you add all the makeup and doctored photos.

    Overly full lips. There’s a bandwidth there where it should fit the rest of the facial features. Filling them up with collagen just almost never looks good.

      Personally, I’d extend it to the entirety of the bimbo look. Why the fuck would anyone want to look like a cheap sex doll!? (ok well I can kinda’ understand it as a fetish thing, but when ever parts of that look extend to “beauty” like huge lips… ugggh)

    I dislike most artificial “enhancements” to boost your attractiveness.

    Things like fake lashes, hair extensions, fake nails, breast implants, BBLs, lip injections, botox, and so on. This also extends for me to things like overly excessive tattoos, piercing, and makeup.

    I personally like people who look and feel real. I don’t want to date a mannequin. It’s a okay to have flaws, nobody is perfect. Your flaws are a part of your charm.

    I’ve always disliked plastic surgery, botox and heavy makeup. But that’s normal enough

    My real hot take is I am disgusted by long, fake nails. They make my skin crawl. They’re so cumbersome, I truly don’t understand how people love with them

          The racist is the one bitching about long nails, a predominant standard of beauty in black culture, and how much it makes them uncomfortable.

          Like, no one needs to hear your judgement of someone else’s choice of personal expression. Ever heard the phrase “ain’t got nothing nice to say, don’t say anything at all”? This is where that applies.

            Long nails are a thing with women of all races. I wouldn’t call it predominantly black. I’d call it predominantly tacky.

    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.

    Plastic cosmetic surgery. It’s one thing if it is wanting to repair damage (injury, illness, etc), but just getting it to change your nose, breasts, whatever, or as a shortcut for hard work (think liposuction) I don’t understand at all.

      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

        Big boobs are absolutely a common beauty standard. That’s why breast enlargement surgery exists. Overalls are not, however.

      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.

    Most of them, but by far makeup.

    If someone enjoys it and wants to, I don’t judge.

    But I seriously never saw a person who looks better with makeup. Even light makeup ( which can look good) still looks worse than just natural.

    Also there is this vicious cycle where heavy makeup users have worse skin and more pimples so they feel pressure to but heavier makeup, which in turn worsens the skin condition.

    People, be happy, love yourself, you are pretty for who you are.

    5 year olds dressed up to look like a 19 year old going out for a one night stand. Kids are cute, and I was never into one night stands, but when the girl is 19 I can appreciate looking at a lot of skin.

    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.

        Yeah but it used to be. Even Kat Von D is blacking out her tattoos so that it would be more provocative again which is how she likes it.

        It was always just art for your body.

        People who got tattoos wanted to be able to express themselves in the way they desired, by decorating their body with artwork, and didn’t appreciate having their decision dictated by arbitrary standards that they did not agree to. They weren’t doing it for the sake of rebellion, it was just called rebellion because it went against the social expectations of the time.

        People often do not understand the reason behind the act of rebellion and attribute those engaging in the activities as being done for the sake of rebellion itself instead of some deeper cause.
