Can be constructed?
Can Beauty be constructed?
Many
people have different opinions on if beauty is considered constructed or not
constructed. Sometimes beauty is
constructed in a positive way or even a negative way. Previously, Cameron Russell believed it was
constructed inn a negative way. Aimee Mullen’s,
however, believes it is constructed in a positive way. Aimee Mullen’s has a disability which is the
fact that she has no legs. She has prosthetics.
Her Ted Talk proves the point that you can
still have a disability and still be beautiful.
Beauty is what comes from within.
It can be constructed in the sense where it can be positive. Her legs are constructed for or a positive reason. Beauty canna so be constructed if you are
getting some kind of surgery done to your face or body. You are reconstructing yourself just to look
like the standard beautiful in your world today. Aimee Mullen’s main tool she talks about in
her Ted Talk Is that mechanics and robotics are a positive way of constructing
beauty. Giving someone a prosthetic is a
wonderful thing to do. She tries to make
a point that you are beautiful regardless of any disability someone may
have. It doesn’t change the type of
person you are.
Beauty
is always constructed. Not everyone just
keeps their natural beauty. Some people
will get those surgeries to make themselves look beautiful or they will cake on
makeup to the point where they look almost like a clown. It is not real beauty it is constructed but
this aspect is negative. Beauty can be
constructed negatively and positively. There
are people who reconstructed their whole self to look like the “beautiful’ that
they believe is beauty in our world.
