The polytheism of beauty: Beauty is subjective and diverse. The type of beauty celebrated here is only a small piece in the vast spectrum of human beauty. Social beauty standards can have a negative impact on people's mental health. If you or someone you know suffers from negative body image, seek, or offer help. You can find resources online by searching for "beauty standards mental health help" or "body image help". Also be aware that that beauty standards can enforce gender stereotypes. Educate yourself, engage in critical thinking and be kind towards yourself and the attitudes of others.
