Polls: Fashion & Beauty

As someone who been into the arts for a very long time, watching art sites that are still active, and looking at art trend, from 90s to today, I notice a slow shift toward diverse representation of what is beautiful, and appealing. Previously, there were idea that really thin ladies are attractive, but now that's not as popular as women who are of normal weight. For most of 90s and 2000s, what is dominant is the representation of white women to symbolize beauty, but that's changing toward more inclusive and diverse representation as in non-white people are beautiful, and even men's bodies are more out there too. So, I can see 2030s and beyond becoming the era of diversity in arts after a massive cultural shift happens.

Personally, I find every demographics beautiful, in and out visually, and I'm an asexual heteroromantic man. But, I do wonder how far are we when it comes to appreciation of beauty in both men and women, and in ethnicity. I don't think appreciation of beauty in bodies (clothed or not) has to do with either romanticism or sexuality, and that's not the case with me.

Simple question on Terror Tuesday...

What do you think of this woman's tattoo on her belly?

Do you like it? Hate it? Something else?

Please vote in the poll.

Germanic women

They stand out with their tall stature, blonde hair, and angular facial features. They are often just as active as men in the workforce—you may encounter women working as mechanics or crane operators. However, don't expect too much romance.

Slavic women

Ideal for those who prefer a more traditionally feminine style. They often expect men to fulfill traditional gender roles. For many Slavic women, looking attractive is very important—they may spend a long time getting ready even for a quick trip to the grocery store.

Latina women

Their darker complexion and warm, outgoing personalities are their defining traits. They are often energetic and lively, with strong sex appeal, though they can also be quite talkative.

By definition, "alternative" is used to describe something that differs from the official, conventional, or majority culture and is considered marginal. Do colorful hair, piercings, and tattoos now represent the general character of Europe? I follow the Easy German channel, and about half of the people featured there look like that.

An interesting fact: in a survey consisting only of gay participants, the AfD came out on top, and the party itself is led by a lesbian. If LGBT people have become an integral part of European society, wouldn't that also mean that LGBT people can be part of the conservative and far-right political camp?

At the age of 30, I started to change these things:

- Now I eat clean and work out
- I will wear nice clothes and combinations
- I will wear good accessories, watch, shades, chain etc.
- My hair and beard will be in good shape
- I will smell good with quality perfumes
- I will also go out more and improve my attitudes

All my life I didn't care about them.

Just curious how many pairs of shoes, sandals, boots, high heels etc do you own?

Now that summer’s here, some girls go out wearing bikini-and-shorts combinations. Some are fit, some are overweight, showing off their bodies. Anyway… does seeing them activate your neurons?
