From the book, 'The daily life of the medieval woman':
In France,
"Women: light skin with no blemish, healthy teeth. Slim but with nicely rounded shoulders and arms (very feminine). Small round breasts, big breasts are ugly. A wide brow, which meant for many women plucking their hair to make their brow look bigger. No ugly hair, thin eyebrows, so use that plier vigorously, A small waist, a long graceful neck (called a swan neck). Young is beautiful, you are at your peak at 16, past that you are sliding into decay." are the standards of beauty in medieval era.
But in this era,
We can decide for ourselves the standard of beauty.
I wonder, who is behind all of this mastermind, setting the standard of beauty for us to define whether something or someone is beautiful. Unfortunately, we do follow the standard, and yet between the historical era and present, I personally think that the standard of beauty evolved vastly.
What if,
The one person that had the first thought of the definition of beauty had set the standard contradictorily different from what we believe today. It might be that the standard of beauty for a women would be overweighted, dark skinned, bald and etc. Would we survive in the world we are living today?
If only that is a reality, it would be funny to see a skinny, tall and light-skinned woman as an ugly woman.
It's all mind control. They make us believe on an idea. There is no such thing to divide the standard of beauty but we are all being controlled by the idea.
