Since ages, the form of beauty has been in continuous changing, in a non stop transformation. In the origins of human kind, women were praised for big bodies which showed their health and the possibility of perpetuating the specie.
After a while, we had the Egyptian beauty, ruddy winding bodies with golden adornments…This one turned in the Greek and then Roman beauty.The size of the female ideal shape started growing and growing, slowly turning into the Titian size:a chubby nasty looking body with a pretty face. This also showed the customs of a rather kinky age with a big taste for food and lust.
The metamorphosis went on till nowadays, from one extreme to the other, from fat to skinny. These days, skinny is the shape we see everywhere: TV, magazines and street. Women all over the world convert their bodies from the natural look into skeletons, just for the sake of fashion and good looks, using drastic weight loss methods. Of course, considering the aesthetic- movement, men got the same idea in their heads: they need skinny looking girls, so of course, as a self preservation instinct, women lose weight.
The obsession of losing weight goes around the world, ruling the heads of so many people, which sometimes forget that health comes first and healthy looks good.
People should remember that beauty will non stop change and this means that we must not lose our health together with fat, because maybe tomorrow fat will be beautiful and not bones. One should keep oneself as fit as possible, but never overreact!!!
