Build your own Standards | a guide to self-discovery


How much power do you give society to make you feel unhappy? Does it even matter now? Society’s standards are the unrealistic characteristics an individual must adopt to be considered a woman or a man, beautiful or handsome, prey or a predator. Society says you are overweight or underweight. Society says you wear too much makeup or not enough. Society says your clothes are too revealing or you are trying too hard. 

WHAT IS IT THAT WE DOUBT?

Living up to such standards is utterly toxic and induces money loss, mental/physical issues, or lower immunity, risking your life. My question to you is, “why do you let society’s words define you when you can build your own standards.” Building your own standards will allow you to manifest better, more meaningful goals,  unachievable by others. Comfortable in your body, you will stamp with pride and demonstrate the gifts you hold talents you possess. All you need to do is list the perfect imperfections that make you, you.

It is time that we all see gender as a spectrum instead of two sets of opposing ideals.

WHAT EFFECTS DOES IT COME WITH?

We must fight for what’s right! Inequality restricts individuals’ opportunities due to their nature: gender, ethnicity, age, class, and wealth. Discrimination is not a pleasant experience, and this matter must be taken more seriously as qualities society calls “imperfections” do not designate what a person can and cannot do. 

Additionally, a world where individuals are treated wrongfully induces mental/physical anxiety, which wrecks well-being and immunity, based on equalitytrust.org.uk. The evidence, as mentioned earlier, confirms how tremendous of an impact prejudice causes for individuals with particular to no privileges.
