A Look into Beauty and Femininity

Watching men in films and television advertisements shaving their hairs in their head, armpits and other parts of the system appears to be quite a familiar scene. It does not, in either literal or figurative sense, stimulate the viewer such as the common individual to rise up in arms and kvetch against it as it may produce a yard for the person to condemn whatever it is that disgraces the society. It all devourms common to think that these manly instances aired in the mass media brings no air of gloom or any hint of an untoward attitude against them.Quite on the contrary, it seems appalling to view women indecently exposing their hairs and shaving them off desire men usually do especially in the broadcast media. Emotions tend to fl atomic number 18 up and torment these instances as if it was several(prenominal)thing new. Indeed, the societys perception of these cases is something relatively new. Much of these make up something to do with the way the society is setup passi m the agesthe patriarchal society has dictated the very definitions of what is acceptable from what is not in terms of gender preferences.To a veritable extent, it does surprise me to be able to watch women parading their hairs right in front of the camera and shaving, puff their excess hairwhichever way that suits themas if it was a mandatory ritual needed to proclaim onward the society how womanly they are with the way they trim their excess hairs. It is funny to think women behaving that way. But what is veritable(a) more hilarious is the fact that all these times I thought women were feminine and are evaluate to keep themselves clean and hairless, so to speak, then here comes a bunch of men doing what women are pass judgment to do.What do these pronounce us? These tell us that there is more than meets the eye. The feeling of being surprise indicates that someone experienced something quite bizarre, unusual, or even life-changing. At some point, much of these indicators wi ll tell us that women have become the laughing stock or, at least, the basin of the lowliest sensibilities of mankind. This is not to say that women are thus expected to be that way.Quite on the contrary, there is no reason to believe that women ought to be that way for the reason that gender should not exclude nor prevent one from freely exercising ones right to live ones life. isolated from the patriarchal setup the society has been placed into like a trap, the fainting presence of women in the past geezerhood have alluded to a grander and more indicting scenariowe have women cleaning themselves live in television advertisements and programs and we laugh at them, as if purifying ones self is a laughable mortal sin.This should not be the case. To my surprise, however, a certain level of intolerance permeates what has become the melting pot of gender rolesmass media. While mass media have broken ancient boundaries which isolate one man or woman from another, it has also widened t he breach mingled with what is reasonably acceptable from what is not. There can be no fitting word other than confusion, I think, which best befits the attitude of one towards women merely sanitizing and maintaining their feminine image. What could be so wrong with that?Arent we surprised to see men doing the same thing women are more expected to do? For social intolerance and patriarchys sake, some reasons do come cheap. I wouldnt be surprised anymore to see women doing the same thing these days. Id be surprised to see men cajoling themselves with scissors and wax in front of national television. It will be surprising, hilarious, and profane nonetheless. I have a feeling somewhere across the globe pot are being surprised with what they see in the broadcast media.Laughing, perhaps, upon seeing a woman cleaning herself, these people shallowly half-realize an empty joke that is never to be found in a world of refined and sheer equality. But women will be women, and so will men be of their kind. Inequality looms in a world surprised to see human nature become as it is. Reference Saltzberg, Elayne A. , and Joan C.
