Fact from fiction, truth from diction. I could nit pick as some do here about the wording of the question but there is too much of that going about. So, how I would handle it is beauty is different depending on where you happen to call home. In the islands of the Pacific I am sure their ideal is different than the idea of beauty in Sub Saharan Africa, which is different from the Amazon which in turn is different from nations we call “The West”.
We in the industrialized nations have a form of beauty based on vestige, balance, symmetry, etc. From a very young age we are told get the newest bike, the shiniest metal cup, the softest pillows, the more ornate plate etc. If you were on a business trip and had to chose from 2 vehicles to drive to the meeting in, one was dusty and unwashed and older but ran like a champ and had goo air and heat and the other was brand new, washed and waxed, but the electric windows did not work and the air had an odor even if told that fact many would still chose it. Why? Because, it was newer and shinier. We have instinctual wiring that says certain features are just better than others. More people like the way a Chihuahua looks than an English Bull dog. One is cite and goes good in the purse and the other………well he dose have massive arms.
Those boys up on Madison Avenue know this, they figure they take a gal who is suppose to be universally in the Western world considered to be attractive and they have her selling body wash or something subliminally it says “you by OUR body wash you will look like here, or feel like it”. For the guy it says “buy OUR body wash and your girl will look like this!” We all buy into it in passive unsuspecting ways. No one ever demanded Sleeping Beauty be a 240ln woman with a rather sizable nose. People never thought to boycott Aladdin because the leading girl was not a short portly gal with ears that stuck out. People with out much thought expected the Disney heroines to be thin an attractive. But then, that is only “Western Beauty”. I am sure in Sub Saharn Africa they could have cared less.
