For those of you old enough to remember, Flip Wilson, you will recall a sign from him, Geraldine. Geraldine is smart, "described a wise-cracking-ass with an invisible friend named Killer." Geraldine was one of the favorite sayings, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and it is not easy beholdin" hard enough. "I miss Geraldine. There is wisdom in this line of Geraldine, especially now when we are so obsessed with physical beauty.

Our generation isprobably more money on weight loss, plastic surgery, Botox, liposuction and spas than ever before. Anorexia and bulimia are no longer rare diseases and be seen in children aged 10 years. ) Are women (and men weight loss pills at the risk of debilitating side effects and / or death. Billions of dollars each year on skin care, makeup, self-care products, perfume and output. We parade our baby girl around on stage, dressed like hookers and plastered with make-upthat someone thinks she does look beautiful. We bring them to strut, pout forgiven, and grin all in the hope that they win a beauty contest in exchange for their innocence and their childhood.

(This was brought home in the recent film "Little Miss Sunshine). But true beauty is entirely physical? I quite a few years ago, a woman whose physical characteristics did not know they sat on the top of the" I am the most beautiful list. "Your weight and body size was good, buther face a little help needed - I thought. This was my first impression. She was a leader of the species, often in front of the group and I am sorry for them. (I have since learned to drop the case. I wish I had known that not earlier). Then I started to get to know them. She was one of the kindest, sweetest, most genuine people I've ever met (and this is true), this 20 some years later. She was the first on the stage when someone was in trouble, or there was a death in theFamily.

And she was not there, she was helping in a skilled and compassionate manner. She was always ready to praise, encourage and show understanding. She was a good speaker and had a beautiful voice and singing. They almost always had a smile and had an aura of joy, seemed to shine from the inside out. She was anything but a beautiful face. It is strange, but, as the last. When I know them better and better, I always said less about their physicalAppearance and in hindsight it is one of the nicest people I have ever known. Her inner beauty shines - the true beauty of who she is and how she leads her life makes her more beautiful than perfect face ever could.

The Lindsey Lohan and Paris Hiltons of the world should take from their lessons. They all have advantages in terms of physical beauty and financial ability to do everything they can to care for themselves. Neither can, start at the beauty that radiates from women like my friend.It is true. Beauty is in the game eye of the beholder. I was not beholdin simply "hard enough.

If your skin is flaky, the tan would be defective.

Start now and you will receive more than happy to face summer in a bikini.

Turkish Beauty Pageant Entertainers

Perihan's neither, I was intending to watch the Miss Turkey beauty contest this year ... something is not our cup of tea. But when we heard that some of the most popular pop stars of Turkey - Tarkan under them - would run at intervals between beauty contest segments, we were curious. So, switched to "Showtime" we, for the STAR TV channel.

The first pop musician was Emre, and involved a very credible work in English with "Tonight,Tonight "from" West Side Story. "Hadise is Then it was my turn to with their international hit song" Stir me up "in English. So, if Tarkan finally appeared in a Frank Sinatra-style pork-pie hat, Singing and dancing to a selection from his new all-English album "Come Closer", the novelty had worn the hearing Turkish pop stars of the implementation of a foreign tongue. And it did not help that his act was missing its usual spontaneous enthusiasm -- seems to be practiced well ... the border withunenthusiastic.

Not surprisingly, the ambitious high-society audience reaction was decidedly reserved ... polite, but a little distracted. Certainly not effusive enough for an international mega-star Tarkan's reputation (yet for this highly touted new musical performances by him - that was 10 years) in the production. It was not the quantity.

It is not his performance was bad. Far from it. And, after the "beauty contest was, he could hardly escape the crowdgood fans and reporters want blocked his way from leaving the TV show center. But we could not wonder what would have been the audience reaction when the same musical-front of a younger, want to share-susceptible group of people carried.

Nevertheless, a comparison was that night between the dullness of the performance Tarkan and the tedium of the "beauty contest to be made - which was won, predictably, by a clone of most of the beauty contest winnerin those days. A tall brunette with thin legs.

Beauty Contests - Where is beauty?

What is beauty? "It is true that the first impression a person decides to our mind, whether it is the owner of the beauty or not. And the impression that most of the time frame on the physical appearance, before we even talk to the person concerned. But it is justified to search for beauty with the tool, not to judge the heart of the person? If we take the broader perspective, then each and every woman is beautiful, which is wrapped with innocence and with lightsEmotions. And an end to all arguments to bring the beauty in the context, it is a famous saying: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

I am not against the base of the physicality, as it forms only the basis of spirituality. But if the women wear the title of Miss Universe, Miss World takeover of the definition of beauty, then it really hurts. It is a round of foot bear and bathing suits included in beauty contests. Someone tell me how to do thispress the beauty of a woman in any way? And even if I accept it for the convenience of the jury to let you choose the most beautiful woman can be simple, such parameters justifies them for the crown of Miss. Universe or the world? Although they tested on their communication skills and personalities do not clarify, however, that their selection.

A woman kept for a year and with specialists for each individual, what their minds can imagine, will surely in time assets. I want toJury and the whole world to think a little deeply concerned about these contests. Each year, the world and the people are spending thousands on such moves, but that's not the suffering does not help the beauty in front of all the misery in their lives. Have the winners of beauty contests ever thought about it? Have you ever spent a single cent that they gain through these beauty contests and on the basis of which they later join film industry? they had real beauty, ifthey ever heard about the thousands of innocent and truly beautiful women thought to suffer alone in the world and always wanted to have spent even a single penny for them, or in the interest of humanity.
