Society's view of what is beauty

Society is obsessed with perfection. Sometimes it seem like no matter what, beauty is being promoted everywhere. What are the standards for beauty? Is it a perfect body? If it is than, what is a perfect body? When did we became judges of beauty? Maybe we don't even know what beauty is and we just only see what generation after generation has portrayed us a beauty. We see it every day, magazines, news papers, TV shows our society's vision of what is beauty. In this world beauty is defined as a skinny almost skeleton like woman with tons of plastic surgery. I just wonder how have we've loosen are values? We have been thought to  stereotype people and not by the way they dress but how they are physically. How did we came to draw a table of what is ugly and what is pretty? How did we came to see the difference between them?  The human creation is beautiful. I don't think we need to stereotype humans as ugly, pretty or colored because we are nobody to judge others. So we go along threw life liking people for theyr appearance, we feel bad when we see someone we think is pretty because we compare ourselves to them thanks to the standards of what is beauty and what is not. So basically we live with people who only enjoy knowing what other people think about them physically and mentally and we don't realize that the only thing that matters is what we think of ourselves. I personally see people for what they are. A person is beautiful if he or she has moral values. A person is beautiful if he or she never judges anyone for who they are. A person is beautiful if he doesn't agree with what society thinks is beauty and what they think is ugly because everything that has been created by god is beautiful.
