Women were born to love beauty. For the sake of beauty, women would do everything they could. You can see that more than half of the products in the mall are sold to women. Women use cosmetics the most. Women wore the most clothes and shoes. Most of the beauty programs in the beauty salon were done by women. After spending a lot of money, they didn't know what the effect would be.
It was also because women loved beauty that they often went to the extreme and even regarded beauty as something above everything else. If a man did not understand this kind of mentality, he would inevitably suffer a great loss.
Elizabeth I of England had a favorite minister named Robert. He was a big hit in front of the Queen. One morning at ten o'clock, when the Queen was washing up, Robert walked into the Queen's room without being informed. The Queen who had just woken up was like a different person. Her hair was gray, and there was no rouge on her cheeks. Other than the majesty of a monarch, there was almost nothing moving about her. The Queen quietly extended her hand for Robert to kiss and instructed him to wait outside for an audience. Robert was smug, thinking that the Queen was obedient to him. Never in his wildest dreams did he expect to receive an imperial decree to imprison him immediately. It turned out that after Robert left, the Queen took a mirror from the servant and saw her aging appearance. She couldn't help but be angry and angry, so she vented her anger on Robert. Soon, there was a rebellion in Scots. The Queen was angry with Robert and sentenced him to death.
The famous imperial concubine Yang of the Tang Dynasty also had a hobby in beauty. According to the records of the Kaiyuan Tianbao Legacy, Imperial Concubine Yang had two "elegant fetishes". One was to visit the back garden in the early hours of the morning to watch the flowers and drink the flower dew. The other was to swallow the jade in his mouth. The pollen in the flower dew contained a variety of vitamins, which could promote cell reproduction and thus resist aging. Jade had the effect of " nourishing the heart and lungs, helping the throat, and nourishing the hair." It was also a kind of oral exercise to swallow jade, which could promote facial muscle movement and blood circulation, help eliminate wrinkles, and maintain luster. This was similar to the popular foreign chewing gum beauty. Although Yang Guifei was born beautiful, she had the ability to retain her beauty and won the favor of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. It could not be said that it was due to her two "elegant habits".
The love of beauty had led to a fetish for elegance, which often caused women to do many things that went against common sense. Women would usually be scared by small insects and would not dare to move. Some would scream and some would even faint. However, the thought of becoming beautiful made this fear disappear without a trace. During the Edwardian era, English women loved to eat nematodes in order to maintain a slim figure. The nematodes were parasites that could digest most of the food a person ate. Thus, a person would not gain weight, but their body would suffer serious damage. During the reign of Elizabeth I, there were many beautiful women with red lips in England. However, their red lips were not natural. They were the result of smashing a beetle and smearing its serum on their lips.
Most women loved cleanliness, but those who loved beauty did not hesitate to get animal feces on their bodies. In order to make her hair beautiful, ancient Venice girls searched for lion urine to sprinkle on their heads and then sunbathe in the sun. The acidic substances in urine had a bleaching-out effect, which made blonde hair more attractive. The ancient Arabian beauty washed her hair with camel urine. Camel urine had a very unpleasant smell, but she couldn't care less about it in order to make her hair shine. Cleopatra also had a strange beauty habit. She used crocodile dung and donkey milk to make a paste and rubbed it on her face. It probably wouldn't smell good, but this method could keep her skin smooth and white, so she was happy to stick to it and kept it a secret.
Everyone knew that a woman's heart was softer than a man's.
Women were outstanding in caressing the young and sympathizing with the weak. Moreover, she could not stand the begging of others and could not bear to see tragic scenes. Therefore, the affection of women and the ruthlessness of men seemed to have become a sharp contrast between the image of men and women in modern society.
Women were easily moved and soft-hearted because they were more likely to have "empathy" than men.
The so-called " empathy " referred to a person feeling the emotions that others were feeling. It was when a person placed himself in the emotional space of others.
Research shows that women are very easy to have an " empathic " effect. Even in studies of newborns, it was found that when female infants heard recordings of other infants crying, they responded by wailing. The gender difference in empathy was obvious, especially for young girls, who usually scored very high in this area.
Psychologist Martin Hoffman believes that women are prone to "empathy", which may be related to their desire to experience the guilt of harming others and putting themselves in the shoes of others.
For example, a cat had one of its legs broken because it stole fish. In the man's eyes, the cat had brought this upon itself and was not worthy of sympathy. The woman, on the other hand, turned a blind eye to this. She only felt that it was too cruel to break the cat's legs! This cat was too pitiful…
Generally speaking, women were more sensitive than men, and they were more willing to show their feelings than men, so they appeared to be "soft-hearted."
Men had less space to express their feelings than women, which was also influenced by traditional culture. For example, when a little boy cried, someone would say to him,""Be brave, you're still a man!”
Emotional behavior was never accepted by society. The traditional view was that emotions had nothing to do with thoughts. Emotional behavior was abnormal, a weak and childish performance. As the leader of various social activities, men should suppress and avoid it. The image of a man could only be a "tough guy".
Compared to men, women had always been seen as weak, and emotional behavior was tolerated by society.
This difference caused men and women to react differently when they encountered difficulties. Women tended to seek or give emotional support, such as sympathy. Men, on the other hand, were more inclined to take action and solve problems.
This was also the reason why it was often the wife who preferred to talk to the other party about her problems. Even if a wife suddenly refused to reveal her uneasiness to her husband one day, it was only because she did not want to trouble the other party with her own distress, or she was worried that she would not get the emotional support she wanted from her husband. A husband did not talk about his problems with his wife because he thought that his wife would not be of any practical help to him if she knew.
All in all, because " empathy " and guilt were important new social emotions that people knew, women had a higher emotional development foundation than men for new social behaviors. Being soft-hearted was one of the most beautiful human emotions. It made people consciously produce altruistic behavior. Women were especially able to show this kind of self-conscious compassion. We can't imagine what the world would be like without 'soft-hearted' women.
Modern people were more scientific than ancient people. These harmful beauty methods had been abandoned, but the problem of knowing the harm was repeated. It was one of the four new diseases in the world, the fear of weight, which was the old state of beautyism. The main manifestation of the fear of gaining weight was dieting, and most of the patients were young girls. In order to pursue a slim figure, they didn't eat nematodes like the ancient people. Instead, they directly shut their mouths and ate as little as possible. When they had to eat, they would also choose things with less fat and low calories. There was a popular vomiting method among patients who were afraid of gaining weight. Some people couldn't resist the temptation of big fish and meat, but they were afraid of getting fat. After eating a big meal, they immediately ran to the bathroom to induce vomiting and vomit everything they had eaten. There were countless women who suffered from long-term malnutrition, and every year, many dieters died around the world.
For the sake of beauty, there was a twenty-five-year-old girl in the United States who wanted to change her appearance. He had performed a hundred surgeries. After her 101st operation, she unfortunately died of surgical complications. A female movie star who had once won an Oscar for Best Actress had undergone cosmetic surgery on almost every part of her body. She had spent a total of millions of dollars and had undergone three breast plastic surgeries alone.
Looking at the actions of the women on the list, one could understand some of the nature of women. Don't try to change the nature of things. As long as it hasn't reached the point of madness, men can turn a blind eye. Women loved beauty, so they kept torturing themselves to make themselves beautiful forever. Because they firmly believed in the saying: There were no ugly women in the world, only lazy women. " I'm tormented, I'm beautiful " had gradually become a woman's slogan. Since women were never tired of it, he would let them do whatever they wanted. Because women would do anything for beauty, men should avoid bumping into guns.
