Shocking Results from the Past 100 Years of Beauty

Shocking Results from the Past 100 Years of Beauty

WATCH VIDEO 

After doing some more in-depth research on beauty, the two of us came across information that shocked us. We had no idea just how flakey the culture’s standards for beauty truly are.

Get this. Over the past 100 years, the ideal body for a woman has changed drastically at least ten times.

1910: The Gibson Girl

1920: The Flapper

1930: May West

1940: Rita Hayworth

1950: Marilyn Monroe

1960: Twiggy

1970: Farrah Fawcett

1980: Jane Fonda

1990: Kate Moss

2000: The Victoria’s Secret Model

When the two of us look over that list and see the drastic changes, we can’t help but get a little upset. Instead of women embracing their unique God-given shapes, sizes, and features, we have a long history of picking a mold and try to conform.

Instead of trying to conform our bodies to the “perfect woman,” let’s instead embrace our God-given differences.
