“Struggle for beauty”
In our time people should be judged by their achievements and not because of appearance. Nevertheless, more and more people, especially women tend to do all for their body, even plastic surgery. And teenagers, who are influenced by parents and idols, want the latest fashion or plastic surgeries at Christmas. Also the media influence the people strongly with the beautiful women and men you can see on the TV. You will never see an ugly person in commercials. Most people don’t know that you have to pay a price for such beauty. So there are advantages and disadvantages, which I want to present.
There are some important disadvantages to this struggle. At first there is the problem with the accidents, which happen frequently. Often scars remain from botched plastic surgery or you get other bodily harm. It can even lead to death. You shouldn’t undervalue this risk particularly if you get operated by a doctor you don’t know. But not only plastic surgeries contain problems. Also simple diets can lead to diseases and agony for example anorexia or bulimia. Particularly young female teenagers tend to get thinner. Often they don’t know that they have a serious problem with their body.
In contrast, the struggle for beauty has many advantages. The fact that you are accepted and integrated for instance at work is an important point for many people to take this struggle. But you also get more self confidence, which you need in competition at work or in personal things. So beauty affects job-related as well as personal success. In this regard beauty pays. Another point is that disfigurations can be removed. For example after a car accident often scars remain and plastic surgeries can help, so that the concerned person will be able to live a normal life. Also obese people have this problem. They are not appreciated in society although they have the same skills like thin people except in sport. They can benefit from diets or plastic surgeries so that they have no disadvantages in society.
In my point of view struggle of beauty is a complex of human society, but if you do it in a certain measure it’s not harmful. So the measure of practice and in which cases you use it is the important point.
To conclude, people shouldn’t exaggerate with the struggle of beauty because it’s not necessary. The most important thing is not the appearance but rather the personal qualities.
