Why are the standards of beauty usually the same?

like, most men will prefer women with shaved legs than hairy legs. Or girls will prefer a guy with a flat stomach and a six pack abs than a fat guy.

Answer #1

Its not the standard of beauty that is constant. Beauty is way more than a flat stomach and smooth skin. If that was what it took for someone to find me beautiful then i would never have found my love. What you are refering to is the flawlessness of the imagination. People will always portray that in their magazines and other adverts or music videos. Its whats popular as well and we dont choose that, some just choose to follow it. Some time ago skinny women was all that was on the runway and that changed now. Look around at all the beautiful people you notice and tell me if they look like those in a magazine? They dont but they still posses the beauty that you see and maybe only you but to them, maybe your view is all that matters.

Answer #2

What you are saying is the majority. There are women who loves fat guy and men who loves a women whatever she has. But the majority of people likes what you have said. It’s because of the taste of human beings , every man likes to be neat, fresh , beautiful etc. On the other hand if you want to keep a pig clean all the time will it like that? or it will rather like to dance in the dirty mud? In the same way a tiger will die in hunger but won’t eat grass. I hope my word make sense :)

Answer #3

Because that’s how the media protrays human beauty; stick-thin girls and muscle-bound men. But most of this is fake beauty, one Photoshop expert estimated that 99.9% of images of women have been photoshopped before being published. In some cultures, fat is beautiful. It’s all about taste really. A person only really becomes ‘fat’ when compared to a really skinny person.

Answer #4

It is not the same. Beauty in the U.S. can be measured based on appearance, and sometimes its based on personality, and actions. While in other countries, it is sometimes look, but for example, in Africa, the concept of beauty is defined by hard-work
