INSECURITIES

Turalde, Alexander Gabriel D.

Feeling not looking good enough and hates self appearance. Both
men and women have physical insecurities, though they manifest in different ways. Women
are frequently subjected to unattainable beauty standards, which contributes to anxieties
about their body type, face features, and weight. On the other hand, men may struggle with
anxieties about their height, muscle definition, acne, or hair loss. In both cases, societal
pressures can lead to a terrible self-picture and a constant comparison to unimaginable
beliefs.

Similarly, regardless of age or background, might experience

physical insecurities. Teenagers, for instance, may compare themselves to their friends when
going through the transforming stages of puberty, which makes them feel more insecure
about their acne, body size, or voice changes. Additionally, elderly adults may start to worry
about aging signs like wrinkles or gray hair due to pressure to maintain a young appearance.
In this way, bodily insecurities can have an impact on people throughout their entire lifetime.

Despite the shared stories of physical insecurities, every person's

journey is specific. Some people may be fixated on their perceived shortcomings, whereas
others find self-popularity and embrace their peculiarities. It's critical to realize that
bureaucracy, size, and shape are all components of beauty. Since no two people are same,
rather than examining our differences, we should cherish them. We shall change our focus
from making comparisons to recognizing the variety and uniqueness of the human body.

Contrary to common belief, one's worth or happiness are not

determined by one's physical beauty. Although one's outside look may briefly catch
someone's eye, one's inner qualities and personality are what lead to genuine connections and
personal achievement. The truth is that a confident and authentic person exudes considerably
greater attraction than someone who is preoccupied on their alleged defects. We can break
free from the bonds of bodily insecurities and recognize our true value by refocusing our
attention on self-love and appreciation.

Bodily insecurities are an inevitable a part of lifestyles, affecting

individuals throughout genders, a while, and backgrounds. However, by accepting and loving
these insecurities, we will gain precious insights into our shared struggles and specific
journeys. It's crucial to remember that true beauty lies in appreciating our differences and
being true to who we are. Instead of giving in to negative self-perceptions, we need to focus
on our reputation, self-love, and the characteristics that define who we are. By doing this, we
can strengthen our own sense of self-worth and inspire others to follow suit, helping to create
a society in which physical insecurities are overshadowed by the power of self-reputation.
