John Carter 2/20/12 What is Beauty? Well like some say beauty is in the eye of the beholder‚ beauty can hardly mean the same to all people because we are different and our standards and tastes differ as well. “We all think that someone or something is beautiful when it provides a perceptual experience of pleasure‚ placidity and satisfaction”.

“Love is not all” by Edna Millay‚ discusses the illogical aspects of love and how people yearn for it‚ even though it is not necessary for survival.

Child beauty pageants are known all around the world. They are advertised through magazines and reality shows. The young girls are marked up to be someone they are not.
