Can you be considered a "perfect pregnant woman" if you are not pregnant? | Talk for a while before going to bed

Talk for a while before going to bed, there is a world in the dream. Listener friends, hello.

Recently, some public figures have caused a discussion about the "perfect pregnant woman" after pregnancy. Today we will talk about this topic.

What is the so-called "perfect pregnant woman"? From "the waist is as thin as a branch in June" to "the girl is still a girl in July", to the lack of a belly and the lack of weight gain during pregnancy, it is more like an aesthetic prejudice against the figure of pregnant women. It is a natural process for pregnant women to change their body shape, not only because of a new life growing in the belly, but also because they have to eat more food than before pregnancy. Moreover, if the pregnant woman is experiencing severe morning sickness and cannot eat normally, the pregnant woman's body will also experience edema. As many netizens have pointed out, repeated hype and advocacy of the so-called "perfect body" during pregnancy is a kind of malformed propaganda and will lead to wrong guidance.

Actually, the discussion about body beauty is endless. In 2014, an underwear brand released a flat poster with 10 models standing. The slogan read "Perfect Body", which was met with considerable resistance. People questioned on social platforms: Is the "perfect body" only in the picture? Some users believed that this poster set up a narrow standard for judging female figures, and even called on users to upload various tall, short and thin figure photos on the Internet to show their attitudes. The storm ended with the brand owner modifying the slogan. From this, we can see that aesthetics is both social and personal, and there is no single standard. Within the social sphere, the simplification of beauty standards can easily give rise to some problems. When "one white hides the ugliness, one fat destroys everything", when "thin" becomes the aesthetic hegemony that rules everything, "shape anxiety " and "face value anxiety" will cause people to go in the opposite direction in the process of obtaining beauty.

is not only that, in terms of body aesthetics, a single standard can easily lead to aesthetic extremes. Take "thin" as an example, the time when the A4 waist and chopstick legs are swiped on the social platform is not far apart. Putting coins on the collarbone and touching the belly button with the backhand leads the trend, and is immediately replaced by the "palm waist" and "4cm wrist" on the stage . There is no thinnest, only thinner. More and more stringent standards will only make the body increasingly deviate from the track of health, and the distance from "beauty" will only get further and further away, let alone "perfection." If you say that body management through fitness, fat loss, shaping, etc., is the result of people's real needs for health and beauty and anxiety, then in order to achieve certain "beauty" standards, the body will be damaged. It may be purely deformed aesthetics, and it is necessary to correct it.

jumps out of the convergent and narrow definition of "beauty" and "perfection", and it is necessary to abandon the impetuous mentality in the aesthetic process. only pays attention to the feeling of maidenness, and may ignore the pain; only the thin waist is in the eyes, and the suffering cannot be seen. The pain of pregnancy may be resolved in the discussion about "perfect body", this heavy process of nurturing new life It will inevitably be dwarfed and vulgarized. Z6z's deliberate publicity and hype about the "slim beauty" of pregnant women are obviously inconsistent with people's objective perception. "The body is as light as a swallow" and "full of vitality", there is no out-of-shape body, no fat body, everything is as good as normal... Such "perfection" is not so much an aesthetic orientation that people agree with, but rather consumerism And the topics and illusions created by marketing methods. The higher the topic of , the more it can attract traffic; the more beautiful the illusion, the more real money consumers will invest to achieve this illusion. In this sense, users need to be cautious about avoiding being marketed "routines" when facing similar topics.

The standard of beauty does not change, but it never only looks at the surface, and there is never only one. Some philosophers said: "Beauty does not have certain characteristics in the entity itself. It only exists in the mind that looks at things, and the beauty that every mind feels is different." Don't let one-sided, extreme, superficial figure. Aesthetics occupies the mainstream, leaving more room for natural and healthy qualities. Beauty is originally a very rich adjective. As long as it is healthy and suitable for oneself, fullness is beautiful and thin is also beautiful, and thin, thin and fat, each is beautiful. It requires our joint efforts and participation to create a healthy, natural and diverse aesthetic orientation and ecology in the whole society.

This is exactly: each has its own beauty, The beauty of the beauty, the beauty of the beauty together, is perfect.
