Comments on: images of beauty https://iwilldare.com/2001/05/images-of-beauty/ A little bit of heaven & A whole lot of hell Wed, 23 May 2001 03:47:00 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.1 By: Skattieboy https://iwilldare.com/2001/05/images-of-beauty/#comment-829 Wed, 23 May 2001 03:47:00 +0000 https://iwilldare.com/?p=673#comment-829 Not to throw a fly in the ointment, but it occurs to me that the different perceptions of beauty in other cultures can help account for differences in self-perceptions of beauty.

In other words, if American women are inundated by images of what beauty has been culturally defined as, then they’re likely to compare themselves to that, especially if people around them help concretize those notions.

Of course, that could just be the psychologist in me speaking.
