The Diversity of Beauty Standards
Beauty standards have been around for centuries, with different cultures throughout history having their own ideals of beauty. In ancient Greece, for example, a full figure was considered the epitome of beauty, while in the Renaissance era, pale skin and a fuller figure were seen as beautiful. In the 20th century, beauty standards were heavily influenced by Hollywood and the fashion industry, with slim figures and youthful features becoming the norm.
In recent years, there has been a push towards embracing diversity in beauty standards, with more representation of different body types, skin tones, and ages in media and advertising. However, there is still a long way to go in creating truly inclusive beauty standards that celebrate all types of beauty.
It is important to understand the history of beauty standards in order to appreciate the progress that has been made towards inclusivity and to recognize the work that still needs to be done.
