Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Meaning of beauty/is there such thing as beauty?
The idea that we, as a society, select what is or isn’t beautiful and then we just go off of that.
So in real life, it could be like in the show, where what we perceive as beauty is ugly and vice versa. But I wonder, isn’t there scientifically backed research about what makes a beautiful or aesthetically pleasing face? Is there a difference between aesthetically pleasing and a beautiful face? Maybe. But I’m pretty sure there was some research about the symmetry and size of a face that makes it beautiful to us. But, maybe that data is skewed and more geared towards the white anglican beauty, and thus anything that is not white and anglican is not beautiful.
I want to look into maybe the science behind what we find beautiful. I also wanna look into the effects of plastic surgery maybe? Because the whole reason she was there was to be turned into the “beautiful” person she wants to be.
I also want to look into what society does around and with people that are “ugly”. WHat is it like to be what society thinks of as “ugly”. Maybe I'll also look into some research about institutionalization of “different” people. Maybe not institutionalization but segregation?
I want to learn about why we select a certain face to be beautiful and why we select another to be ugly.
I hope that they may have the same journey and experience as me, that they can understand that maybe the idea of beauty really is in the eye of the beholder but also that there is no such thing as ugly or beautiful.
And others should not be able to persuade you that your face or body are ugly. Maybe I should also research how society forces young women especially to want to change their faces or bodies to look like the ideal beauty Ideal.
My first idea is to look into the science of what we find beautiful. My readers will get a better understanding of how, in real life, we find things beautiful and maybe if there even is a thing like beauty. They will get a better understanding on why we find things beautiful.
I think my essay can teach us about how beauty is subjective or maybe that it is not and that there is an intrinsic part of our DNA that looks for certain things in order to deem them beautiful. I also want to explore with my readers the phrase that beauty is in the eye of the beholder
and I also am looking forward to understanding my own perspective of beauty and ugliness
Miscellaneous
I like her coat, she has a cool sense of style, but I hope she doesn't fall in the snow. I hope the roads are not too slippery and I can get to work on time and walk over to jacks safely. Most importantly I should probably bring gloves because if the snow sticks weirdly on the car it'll be a mf mess trying to get out because I’ll be tired and stuff. Also I wonder what time I should wake up tomorrow. I wanna get back on task now.
Butter chicken for dinner or maybe mac n cheese but I already had noodles for lunch ugh.
My face is so itchy from this mask jesus. I wonder if taking a flame to it really will help or if it will make the surface all hard and will irritate my skin.
Maybe tomorrow If I have time in the morning before or after therapy I can go buy the dior lip oil?
loving oneself
Hopefully I will see that there is no such thing as a beautiful or ugly person and I will appreciate the features that I dislike on myself and understand maybe why I feel that they are ugly or why I want to change them.
I think if I understand these things, I can be more authentic, which to me would be more confident and love my face ad body and stop looking at other bodies and faces as my “goal” or something I wish I could look like and more like other’s unique features that make them different and beautiful like me.
Maybe if you love yourself then you are the most beautiful version of yourself.
I think this is a valuable lesson because we need to be more self loving and find beauty, not ugliness in ourselves
and change my point of view so that I find beauty in myself
Important parts of the episode
I watched three out of four of the episodes yesterday. The one I didn’t watch, “the trade-ins”, was literally not available for free on any platform, as far as I looked.
The three episodes I watched, well out of the three I watched, I liked “The Eye of the Beholder” the best. I noticed like halfway through the episode how none of the character’s faces were shown to the camera. Or if they were shown, like the leader’s face, the face was distorted or far away enough that I could not make out any shapes or details, just know that he does indeed have a face.
I was a little confused when the nurse was talking to the doctor about his special interest in this patient, was it just the fact that he really did want the surgery to work for her, or was there some other relationship? Because I originally thought that maybe he and the patient had some previous relationship whether that be family, friends, or romantic relationship.
It was interesting when they kept telling her it was too early or they could not tell if they could take the bandages off but then they gave in pretty easily once she asked for like the third time in the episode. Maybe it is because there was a lot more asking previous to the start of the episode or maybe it was because of something else but I forgot what I thought of.
I am looking forward to watching the episode some more and maybe finding more interesting parts of the episode that I did not notice or understand before. I think there is so much to unravel
