TROM The Ugliness of Beauty | Page 4

If there is one notion that is completely distorted and misunderstood in this world, it must be the notion of “beauty”.

Beauty contests, beautiful people, beautiful cars, beautiful houses, clothes, legs, furniture, websites, paintings, songs, writings……

Even scientists are trying to prove that this concept has a correlation in reality and please remember, the cosmetics industry, which is basically just a huge pile of people on planet Earth creating and selling “stuff” (mixtures of chemical compounds) ONLY to “enhance” one’s look, is worth 70 billion/year in the US, Europe, and Japan alone.

I am sure all of you have used this word many times to describe various things from people to objects and feelings, but what do you really mean when you say “What a beautiful girl” or “This is such a beautiful painting” ?
