Image a world were beauty is not skin deep, but defined by the content of our character...
'We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?'
MARIANNE WILLIAMSON
We must learn that beauty is more than skin deep. We must fight back against the media's perception of beauty, where we must all skinny shame and fat shame those who do not fit that image.
My mother would say to me, ‘You can’t eat beauty. It doesn’t feed you.’ Those words bothered me; I didn’t really understand them until finally I realised that beauty was not something I could acquire or consume. It was something that I just had to be. - Lupita Nyong'o, Oscar Winner.
We want to live in a world where we are difined not by the complexion of our skin, or how much make up we wear, but by the content of our character.
The media, and beauty magazines, have created a culture of critising women's looks. The impact of this is not only seen all around us, but felt within us also.
Whether it is society pushing us to have our hair a certain way, or wear certain clothes, or even have a certain colour skin. Society harms the esteem of women, young and old, rich and poor.
