A23.W4 Define the meaning of beauty.

Do you think there should be beauty contest for men as well as for women? Why or why not?
What in your opinion is the difference between a woman's beauty and a man's beauty?

Yes, there is nothing bad with having a beauty contest or a male contest, these events can be so
much fun. The cultural issue is that these competitions are treated as a sporting event. It's okay to
have fun with these kinds of events, walk the runway and show off your talents and come up with
witty responses, but it gets weird when the culture treats these things like they're actual
competition. It's like judging art or creativity. All in all, men's beauty contest isn’t that different
from women's, they just feel different because we expect different things from men than women,
but that has nothing to do with beauty contest.

In my opinion, there is no difference between the two genders, as a society we must learn that our
appearance alone should not be what motivates us, but our appearance should be a
representation of who we are and what we do, therefore, the beauty of the human being is found
in our way of thinking and behaving.

What do you think about the phrase in the song Prasad talks about: “Do you love me because
I'm beautiful, or am I beautiful because you love me"?

In my opinion, it tells us that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, therefore, it implies that people
love and see with their heart, and that when they feel a sensation of love towards another person,
they offer the best of himself to be able to shine like never before, in addition, he transmits to us
that people are beautiful in the eyes of the right person.

Define the meaning of beauty.

Beauty is not just a visual experience; it is a characteristic that provides a perceptual experience to
the eye, ear, intellect, aesthetic faculty, or moral sense. It is the qualities that give pleasure,
meaning or satisfaction to the senses, also, we can define it as the sensitive appreciation of the
world.
