Second thing just because you don’t like someone doesn’t mean that they’re not right, you would have to be a fool to pretend that sexualizing yourself at that age is a good thing …. It’s not.

I've always thought of the colloquialism "hot" as not so much a degree of physical beauty as it is a particular type. Hot is more in accordance with modern iterations of beauty, rather than classical standards. I think of Kylie Jenner as "hot" and Scarlett Johansson as beautiful.
but they don't offer cosmetic procedures :D they only offer facial analysis and make suggestions to improve your looks with or without procedurs. If the person then wants procedures they have to go to actual plastic surgeons.
They cherry pick "ugly" pictures, with no makeup, no hairstyle and with a particular expression to compare with a smiling woman who wears makeup and whose hair is down and styled
They have makeup in every picture. And the ugly "IDC" hair is itself a hairstyle. None of these women are just rolling out of bed looking like that. Gen Z women, and some Millennials, spend the same amount of time and money as their predecessors grooming themselves to try to look like they've spent no time or money grooming themselves.
We really need to normalize not wearing make up for women because it's scary that people like you really believe a woman can only be attractive if her real face is literally covered under layers of a product, while men of course aren't required to put all that stuff on their faces to be considered attractive.
First off if they need makeup all the time and need to have extensions or have some overdone hair style,that's not natural beauty that's a mask they wear to appear attractive,it's also a sign they're liars. If they truly had natural beauty they would have no need for makeup😂😂😂
I'm walking proof Chinese facial Feng Shui is bonkers.

It was on mine ever since I saw that OKcupid data showed that women consider 80-90% of men below average lol. Women have always been the eugenicists of nature.
how on earth wasn’t it? did you miss all the rhetoric around covid? the policy and individual behavior borne from deep disdain towards disabled and immunologically vulnerable people was and continues to be staggering.
Way to call the WHOLE generation ugly. These people weird me out. What society deemed attractive throughout the ages changed basically with every generation. Not to mention individual preferences may differ from person to person. Kinda feels like these people are insecure and trying to feel better about themselves, by dragging the other generation down. :I
I don’t think gen z is less attractive, I think it’s that we’ve changed our standard of who we expect to see in commercials, tv etc. Growing up in the early 2000’s pretty much every fashion model, super model, and even most lead actresses in tv were all super attractive, far more than the average person. Nowadays the fashion models for most clothing brands just look like regular people, because brands are far less picky about who they choose, which I personally think it’s a good thing. However just looking at media today and media at any point in history before 2010, there’s a stark difference in conventional attractiveness to those shown on camera, which gives the illusion like our generation ran out of attractive people to cast which just isn’t true
Yup. It's essentially a type of representative bias that is being used to substantiate the theorem that gen z is less attractive than previous gens. True beauty has always been the exception in the general population, rather than the norm.
A lot of those models were clinically Anorexic. They were certainly not healthy role models. Add to that the fact that even they did not, in person, look like they did in the ads and you realize that the standard of beauty put up was not attainable by ANYBODY and thus led to mass body dysmorphia.
It’s odd because I think people are becoming better looking as time goes by, but possibly because all of the beautiful faces are now always at the front of every TikTok insta and Twitter pages. Not that it has increased but that we are constantly exposed to the beauty of the world 24 7
Honestly I feel this way from my own perspective. Whenever I come across an instagram post or yt video of anyone that’s supposed to be a 10/10 I just don’t really think they’re anything special anymore. It may just be because not only are we exposed to beautiful faces all the time but we are also exposed to the same type of beautiful face all the time. There’s no versatility, just the same copy paste people. And while yes they are objectively attractive, I just can’t bring myself to praise their looks because I feel like I can see their face anywhere. A big part of whether or not someone is attractive is the uniqueness of their features, at least for me. And if the same faces are constantly being shoved down my throat they’re not unique anymore, they don’t catch my attention like they once did.
It's hypocrisy. If you like unique faces date an acid victim. They have the most unique faces on the planet. You still want something beautiful by beauty standards. You just don't like the mainstream. Big deal. Go meet some people from any alternative scene on this planet. They are just like you
No it doesn't. The initial studies were actually only done on European populations. Also, mugshots across the U.S. show that low-set ears are a commonly shared physical trait of repeat offenders of ALL races of criminals.
Fixating on single facial features, sizes, or colors showcases an completley absent sense of beauty because beauty is a matter of interest, harmony, and emotion. These tiktokers need to put down their phones and go to a museum.
I've noticed SO MANY TIMES that overfilled lips (that I'm quite frankly disgusted by, 10/10 cases I think the person was more attractive before them) actually look great when you cut them out from the rest of the face. Like only lips+chin or like on these insta before-afters where there's only lips up close. In those cases I can even understand why some people might want those. But when you see the whole face... NOPE. It throws off the harmony so much, making them look like alien slug parasites
Exactly. I never understood how people say XY has beautiful teeth, ergo XY is beautiful. No. There are some features that are beautiful in themselves, yes. But the entirety of features makes up a beautiful face meaning that a thin lipped person can still be beautiful despite society going nutts over full lips. A wide nosed person, somebody with a high forehead, somebody with a round face, a long nose etc. All those features that are said to be less attractive can be (and often are) part of a beautiful face. Because the harmony of all these features make up a striking, lovely face. That's why an actress like the one from dirty dancing is lovely with an "unattractive" nose and forgettable with a "beautiful" nose. Why people, women especially, won't get that is beyond me.
@@walle5667 this is one of the greater issues that plauge Hollywood and the beauty industry - too many actresses and models trying to aquire the same face. They forget that you need to be memorable and distinguishable to play a part.
Here is a gorgeous zoomer cashier, as proof that zoomers are unattractive! I see... Picture of beautiful women, and of different beautiful women, to... demonstrate women nowadays are unattractive? Such outstanding logic, I am speechless!
I think that the picture meme is about Hollywood casting, the "Zoomers are less attractive" claim comes from an Australian paper, just like how a few decades ago an Australian millionaire claimed "Millennials are poor because of avocado toast" because avocados are expensive in Australia, but here they barely cost anything. Unfortunately stupid ideas spread more quickly thanks to the internet.
@@aphrodieMonkey You can actually find avocados in your stores? (half-joke continuation for the meme. Half, because I actually can count on my fingers how many times I've seen avocados on sale in my small town...)
I don’t personally know anyone, Zoomer or otherwise, who looks like these actresses with the wide-set eyes, just like I don’t know too many X’ers who look like Angelina Jolie. I’d say in both cases, this is a preference of Hollywood, not an accurate representation of anyone in either generation.
Have you noticed teenagers in yearbooks look older but take an average 40-45 year old today, they will quite often look way way younger than a 40 something year old a few decades ago.
@@kupotenshi Then why doesn't that work when we dress today's Young adult's the same way with the same hairstyles? Your premise presupposes: That this hasn't been tested; That if tested, your hypothesis would be the outcone; That the conclusion would affirm this as the primary factor; We know that the testosterone levels of todays males are lower than males in the past. This would correlate with the knowledge of how Testosterone levels greatly effect bone structure, Hair growth, hair loss, aging, skin elasticity, ect. All of which would help to explain this phenomenon. I see people are hastily looking to dismiss that this could be happening and I want to know why
Younger women are not as fixated on the male gaze, there fore their over all looks, via make up, clothes, fabrics, textures, colours, haircuts, shapes in shilouettes, shoes, patterns, and accessories makes them look more unike and less like the ideal. Earlier generations did not embrace their uniqueness as much. Now young women (dare to) choose to accentuate features they want to enhance, rather than what society/the norm tells us to want to look like to fit in. I believe this is one of the factors as well. We want to look more diverse, we choose and dare to accentuate our unique features more than generations before us did. We used to do all we possible could to fit the mould. All the beauty books and tips and tricks was designed to trick the eye into believing we had for example long legs, even ratio lips, etc etc You were expected to hide and accentuate to look identical, according to the set norm, wich was never as wide and diverse as today. Do I have a point? Kitty in 🇸🇪
Those are still influenced by the male gaze. Women speak of the male gaze like it's a bad thing but it's what shaped civilization and continues to do so. Walls and pillars were erected from the male gaze. Male gaze is what shaped reality. It's a male super power. The male gaze can take a bad situation and turn it into a good situation. Why do you think there are men that are into weird things?
Nowadays, it's the female gaze and men are pressured to fixate on it which, in terms, backfires against women because everything was not erected from the female gaze.
i find kidology to be such a beautiful woman not only because i personally find her beautiful outwardly, but her intelligence, & the way she speaks and carries herself is gorgeous.
That's a matter of opinion and depends who you're comparing her to. For a start, she's wearing weave, would you find her as attractive if she wore her much shorter and tighter hair? You might, but the question still needs to be asked? I just see a really bad wig and an okay face, cute, but nothing special. Perhaps the wig is actually detracting from her facial attractiveness and she'd look better without it. Most women today are literally filtered up to the eyeballs and hardly have any of their actual natural selves on show, so it's difficult to authentically rate any of them as attractive or not until you see them first thing in the morning with literally everything in their make-up routine taken off.
From my experience, when people decide they dislike your personality they start to attack your facial features. It has nothing to do with the actualy facial features or whether they actually find you beautiful or ugly. Somebody who has a bad personality will immediately lose all the good looks in most people's eyes. For Zeigler, people dislike the way she talks, call her cringe and her personality unpleasant and that is why they started to also attack her looks. I remember people praising her looks before her interviews came out and only afterwards did people start saying bad things about the way she looks. For Bailey, people were upset about the Disney remake so they attacked her appearance. It's never actually about the appearance, except maybe in the case of Anya Taylor-Joy who people also make fun of for having wide set eyes but I don't think people particularly dislike her personality (correct me if I'm wrong because I don't know much about her). She just had the misfortune of being lumped together with the other two at a time when it's really popular to bring down women for their looks.
@@AvaAdore-wx5gg yes but do you really have to point it out? Like what do you expect them to do? Honestly making fun of someone's looks on the internet is pathetic
I did a paper on eugenics in high school, its interesting to me how progressives championed it back then and it seems like the focus on physical differences has brought bck some of those standards again.
@@user-xd2oh2hd4f the cosmetic industry can't sell you anything if you don't feel like you need it, they play on insecurities for profit, "purchase this product and you will be better". I think cosmetic industry and eugenics movements are concerned with "cleaning up imperfections" one could say, I think it's mostly coincidence.
Children are NOT acting more mature for their age at all💀. They just look more mature, but they certainly don’t act like it. They’re bratty and spoiled. I wouldn’t call that mature.
Maybe older people just don’t like the way gen z dresses themselves? Like piercings, dyed hair, body hair.. Beauty ideals are changing a lot, i for example think that many people in movies from the 2000s that are supposed to be the “hot” characters look kind of .. ugly? And i find that wide set eyes are so so pretty, but it might make one look a bit alien. I believe beauty is (to a certain degree) subjective. This weird obsession with “mid” celebrities and “looksmaxxing” or “negative canthal tilt” or whatever feels like people are just wanting to create problems where there are none to explain why they’re not getting laid when its actually because of their ugly personality
I think Kid hit the nail on the head: these actresses are pretty but they do not cater to a certain type of male's attention when they speak and dress....so these men have to write whole theories about why these women are actually ugly in order to deal with the dissonance. I'm reminded about how there were extended debates about Lady Gaga (hot or not) by men in the early 2010's, she we just so theatrical in her fashion and her sexuality was always mixed with something flamboyant - it was all so confusing for them.
“Piercings, dyed hair and BODY HAIR????? They body part makes you sound like a stupid person or kinda pedo…. you think the older generation never did all these? older people are the influence where do you think is from 💀💀
Another segment of this bizarre hatred, to me, is jealousy - plain and simple. Both actresses are very pretty but they are also supremely gifted singers and have made their way to the Hollywood A-list at quite a fast pace. So the only way to discredit them? Call them “inferior females” because of some kooky, antiquated and/or racist pseudoscience. It’s giving low self-esteem.
Contrary to what folk think Gen-Z and Alpha I Reckon Are Not Only Developing Sooner But Are Very Efficient With How They Move. I’m Not Even Referring To Physicality. I’m Gen Y Which Is A VERY Jealous Generation.
@bobrzycapola exactly. I still think she's quite pretty despite her bad personality. It's weird imo that most people can't seem to keep personality and physical appearance separate. I think I stopped doing that in middle school.
Faces are becoming less attractive: ❌️ Media highlights faces you personally don't consider attractive: ✅️ There's always been the same kind of faces and the same amount of variety, the only thing that changes is which one of them is "on trend" at the moment.
@@Ri57490 Gen X is by far the most good looking generation and this is coming from a millennial. We all agree (boomers, gen x and millennials) that Gen Z are the worst. The most classless, talentless, characterless, ugliest and most uncharismatic generation ever.
And they never mention… Kate Moss, Miranda Kerr, Amanda Seyfried, Cameron Diaz, Hayden Panettiere, Julia Stiles,Lily Cole. Jackie O when talking about hypertelorism.
@@aspiringcaptainHey saying that because they are being hateful and jealous towards non white women but the white women who are basic looking dont get compared to other women.
@@tazzy4624Exactly, what you described is racism. These ppl subconsciously target those who don't look like them in order to prop themselves up as being better. When in reality, they aren't better by comparison, but their pride causes them to be delusional & attack others.
I'm a younger millennial, and I think my generation has started plenty if unhealthy beauty trends. But it just seems like now, particularly with many members of the Gen Z, the only thing that counts in this world is how good your face looks. I see people rip each other apart so much more online now on really specific physical features that I don't feel like millennials and older generations paid much attention to. The assesments made, sound like the detailed analyses made by plastic surgeons. We mostly cared about not being "fat," which isn't good, but losing weight or keeping in shape is a lot more attainable than changing your bone structure. It just seems everything is even more unattainable now, and requires surgery. If anything, I think the older generations look more "plain" compared to Gen Z. My mom and her twin brother have physical impacts from alcohol exposure. Their eyes aren't wide apart at all, rather, bones are missing from their faces. They git very lucky that they aren't particularly disfigured because of it. My gran didn't care to put down the bottle unfortunately.
I mean, your bone structure, facial features, and height are, for the most part, genetically pre-determined for you. However, when you're young and your bones and muscles are still malleable, illnesses (like chronic sinus infections) and nutritional deficiencies can deform the shape of the face and stunt the growth of a child who would otherwise have a genetic predisposition to be tall-statured and have a normal, well-proportioned face. After that point, the only option the individual has is to practice healthy eating habits and work out so they make their physique more attractive and possibly get cosmetic surgery on their face if they can afford it.
@@SarahSmirnovaThat's the problem though. I think we as a society are looking too hard at our features and assessing where we (or our parents) went "wrong," and thinking we need to correct things that aren't broken. Especially in the western world, where people have access to nutrition and healthcare, and prenatal care. Any deviation from health growing up has trivial differences in one's appearance in most cases (unless you're a plastic surgeon, then any "flaw" is obvious). Gen Z particularly, seems to have a plastic surgeon's view on beauty, and is too open minded towards cosmetic surgery. Everyone has their own destiny, but, this is extremely destructive for kids. More younger and younger people are wasting time with goals of attaining "beauty" rather than what kind of skills, and actions, and service to society that they want to achieve. Looks fade, but trades don't. It seems like many members of Gen Z have a hard time accepting that most people look "average" and will always look that way. Way back, plastic surgery was more commonly reconstructive. I wish we could go back to that view.
@Anya-jk2dy One thing I do agree with you on here is that no one, gen z or otherwise, should focus exclusively on beauty or attractiveness at the expense of developing non-physical traits like intelligence, character, and skill competence. And yes, the "beauty fades" aphorism is just a biological reality. Very few people have the income to afford rejuvenative surgeries and procedures when they become middle-aged. Even the ones who have the luxury to get their faces and skin reconstructed won't look like they are 25 when they are 60. It's just not possible, at least with our current technology. Though, I would like to see a world where aging is a thing of the past, along with intellectual, psychological, and physical disorders. But of course, these are all complicated topics. The molecular mechanisms of aging are only starting to be understood, therefore research in this area isn't really that extensive yet. As for physical and mental handicaps and their societal and individual life quality impact, it seems most people don't want to openly discuss this topic because eugenics is perceived as ableist and politically incorrect by the general populace. I have seen a number of people comment under this video that intelligence and beauty are correlated. I do agree, to an extent, that those two phenomena are related for a few reasons. 1. People who are more intelligent tend to take better care of themselves, tend to practice healthy nutritional habits, and work out regularly. These practices also have a bidirectional correlation with intelligence because eating nutritious foods and doing vigorous exercise stimulate neurogenesis. 2. Facial symmetry, to a certain point, is correlated with intelligence. Notice that most, or all, congenital diseases characterized by facial abnormalities also have intellectual impairment as a clinical feature. Just like with any general phenomenon, there are exceptions to this. I have known very intelligent people in my life who hated exercise and ate very poorly. I suppose spending long periods of time doing research and writing-intensive work, which often requires sitting, can cause one to neglect one's health. But I think there is a point where IQ and attractiveness start to not be correlated, or only have a negligible association. For example, almost anyone can see that most individuals who have made significant contributions to the fields of science, medicine, and philosophy throughout history were, at best, completely average-looking. Some were even unattractive. Yet, almost none of these people had IQ scores below 140. It doesn't seem that, in the real world, average looks automatically = average IQ and that exceptional looks = exceptionally high IQ. I realize these are anecdotes, but, for now, I can only go by real world examples to substantiate my claim because studies in intelligence, ones which follow actual academic rigour, seem to be scarce in the public domain for people to read and interpret.
I see where you are coming from, but for things often considered vain, such as anti-aging--is it actually necessary and an effective usage of resources, since humans can expect to all die one day? Consider that studies on intelligence, including genes that may or may not contribute to intelligence are not all-inclusive to the human population, rather, on certain populations. Similarly, genes associated with "attractiveness" are not all inclusive to the general human population, rather, based on certain populations. And definitions of beauty change. As you know, going under the knife contributes neither to intelligence, longevity, or long-term improvement in aging. Similarly, parents who go through IVF and select the "best" embryos are not guaranteed more successful, attractive or healthy offspring. That's why eugenics is largely shaky, on top of small factions of people that have the potential to do harmful things with it.
wow...this must have taken awhile to construct---thank you for taking the time and care it took to articulate some very interesting ideas/theories. @@SarahSmirnova
I’m an old white geeze-ette 70 years old, and I know that you young humans are absolutely beautiful. Any old crankcases who say otherwise must have had someone pee in their Cheerios that day. Or maybe every day. You also have a lot more honesty than most of my peers. I hate that for them. They’re only cheating themselves. The majority of my volunteers at our local food bank are “Zoomers and Millenials.” They just get it. That’s the mark of a very successful human. From a grateful old Boomer.
The example of traditional wide-eyed Disney princesses were cartoons, made up. It is also clear that Marilyn Monroe and even more so Jacklyn Kennedy had wide set eyes. But these women are from another era. Rachel Zegler and Halle Bailey were chosen because they look like the cartoon ideal. They are both very pretty girls but probably at the extreme end of wide eye separation. You may be onto something that since their behavior is different than their 'baby' looks, they are more rejected.
I really don’t disagree with you other than the wide-eyed look having something to do with the hate let’s say Rachel Ziegler is facing. I’d think it’s the opposite actually, she’s getting off way easily as she’s so cute & pretty. The drama has already died down mostly. So.. Not everything is linked, I find the original claims a bit of a reach
no.... im very tired of this. idk about zegler but bailey was chosen because shes beyonces protege. There was no casting, there was no selection, she got offered a role because someone higher up pulled strings.
@@mayap.4146 you might be biased about that,have you heard Halle Bailey sing honestly the role was for people who can sing,she auditioned for it and was chosen whether it was because of her being black I do not know but I will say Halle sings and she played her role well
@@turquoiselizzie6874 I don't care if she can sing. Plenty of people can sing. Fact is there was no auditions because she had someone pull strings for her. This is compounded by the fact that she is actually a really bad actress lmao.
Another contemplative, stellar video. A little while ago, I was pondering this Rachel Zegler situation… yes, she may have said some cringe things… but she’s so young. Only 22… and was raised in the 21st century with all the woke indoctrination. We’ve all said extremely cringe things at one time or another but she has to navigate maturing as a public figure. There’s no forgiveness to be found on the internet. But, really… she said some cringe things about a *cartoon* . The people castigating her for it likely haven’t paid mind to the original cartoon ever before but suddenly, they’re sending death threats to her for saying uncharitable things about it. Odd. Those people need to find better things to care about.
I don’t think the problem is “woke indoctrination” it the fact that this is the exact thing disney probably told her to say and what they’ve been saying in thier remakes for years. People are sick of disney remakes, and they’re taking it out on her.
Love this video. I don't understand why this is the case, since in makeup theory we always teach that normally spaced eyes are the norm (it's when you can fit the width of the eye between the eyes) but wide set eyes are considered more attractive throughout history (I've always used Rihanna and Kate Moss as example)... It's the reason why we usually do makeup the way we do it most often without even realizing : light inner corner to widen that space and dark outer corner to elongate the eye toward the temples.
I am considered aesthetically unattractive . I grew up in the 60s. The ideal was pug nosed, blue eyed, blond, with pink skin and thin lips, with perfectly straight, white teeth. As a child I was dark, thin, tall, prominently nosed, buck toothed,beige skinned,narrowed eye bridge. I grew up in a conservative state, and frequently was subjected to “Whar ARE you” questions, and had been attacked by anti-semites. Now I am fat, old, etc. i never thought I was unattractive, but when I was othered by other white people, it was difficult to find a date, and made me cynical. When I moved out of the country, it was a new world. I suppose being a foreigner, I was seen as exotic, so in a year I had dates like I never had in my entire life. The US beauty standards are so narrow
You don't consider Jewish to be white??? LOL! at "being othered by white people" I truly doubt people stopped you in the street to ask "What are you"? as if all white people are blond and bue-eyed. Was this in Germany during the Holocaust, cause if sure didn't happen in the US.
Hi kid! I’m Brazilian and I get so happy to see other people learning Portuguese. in other videos you said that you’re actually interested in the language because you want to visit Portugal, but I hope you also get to enjoy Brazil ❤ another tip is, netflix has some good tv series and documentaries in Portuguese (mostly Brazilian but also Portuguese) so you can get some references for the usage of slangs Boa sorte no seu aprendizado 💕
Literally nobody cares about Brazil, it's one of the most non tourist friendly countries out there, the language is beautiful but Brazil is basically Mexico but worse lol Portugal is also pretty boring but at least it's 200% safer than Brazil in all ways Don't go to Brazil if you're reading this, go to Spain or Canada
Considering the sample is from actresses, maybe its because more ordinary looking actresses are actually becoming big on that quirk of... you know... talent! Than actually being selected for roles based on good looks? (well, good looks according to fat old rich men who make those choices). Also all 3 highlighted are still attractive if in an unconventional way.
Pretty wild to insinuate that actresses today are better than the past, hard to remember most performances from actresses these days, let alone find good ones.
Acting, imo, is not that difficult of a skill to master (unless we're talking about extreme and unique roles that require eccentric performances). Any regular person can act as a different regular person with just a little bit of practice so looks have always been the priority when it comes to casting in movies. The actresses today look unattractive to these Millenial and Gen X commenters because, well, the beauty standards have changed like they always keep changing. This is not a new phenomenon. I know people laude Marilyn Monroe as the most beautiful woman of all time but I swear, seeing her photos from even from her prime days today, she just appears 'meh' to me. She's not ugly but she's definitely not the most beautiful woman ever by today's standards. I was born in the mid 90s (which is on the boarder of millenial and gen z) so I'm a Millenial when it comes to some things and a Gen Z when it comes to others. I honestly find both Millenial actresses AND Gen z actresses attractive. However, in another 25 years, I imagine I won't be attracted to the newly upcoming Gen Alpha actresses because their beauty standards would be different. I sure hope I have better hobbies then than making videos about how I'm not attracted to women who are young enough to be my kids.
@hittingyouoverthehead nah I'm the same age and I think Marilyn Monroe was super attractive, it's her chemistry, her essence not just her looks, but still the most beautiful of all time
Also I think Hollywood is borrowing some of it's sensibilities from the world of high fashion - which is to say they are intentionally selecting people that have something odd to their look in a way this may be a reaction to plastic surgery culture that seeks to create a samey yet generic kardashian face.
One easy, obvious explanation: many of the images we're using to judge Gen Z's attractiveness were shot with phones or pocket cameras, which have wide-angle lenses that distort images in a way that's unflattering to most human faces. Without getting too technical, all lenses have a focal length, and a lens that shows you roughly what your eye sees with minimal distortion will have a focal length of 50-55 mm. To flatter the human face, you want a longer lens, 85 - 135 mm, with a lot of photographers (me, for example) favoring the 105 mm lens as kindest to the largest number of human faces. Phone lenses are way short of that optimal length, most being only 24 to 27 mm, which gives the same effect as looking in a convex funhouse mirror, though we're all so used to phone selfies that we hardly notice the distortion any more. (If an expensive phone claims to have a "zoom" lens, it's generally just twice as long as the 24-27 mm lens, making it not a true zoom but a "what the eye sees" 50-55 mm lens.) With very few and rare exceptions, no phone has a true zoom lens, though they may have what's called "digital zoom," which is basically just a partial enlargement of a wide-angle shot and doesn't correct the distortion that results from shooting at a short focal length. And, yes, one feature of that distortion will be to make eyes look farther apart. Wide-spaced eyes look beautiful when shot with a modest zoom but a little freakish when shot with a 24 mm camera phone. Try it yourself. Rent a camera with a 105 mm OPTICAL zoom lens and a tripod. Shoot a whole bunch of selfies. Then unscrew the camera from the tripod and screw on your cell phone, and, if the phone has a "zoom" option, use it. Shoot another round of selfies, as much like the first round as possible. Compare the images; I promise you, unless your face is flat as a pancake with all your features scrunched together in the middle, you will look A LOT better in the photos shot with the 105 mm optical zoom. In other words, some of the supposed changes in the way people look are really due to changes in equipment and media.
I take anything that suggests that one generation is more attractive than another with a pinch of salt. Something that has changed is the amount of make up, tan, eyebrow shaping, fillers, cosmetic procedures etc. Personally I find nearly all of it makes people less attractive, though I appreciate that ymmv. And whatever you think of them, it's inevitable that like with all fads and fashions, these interferences will go out of style within a generation or so.
I feel like having a neotenous features is the beauty ideal in the culture at the moment. Wide set eyes, being short, being cute rather than sexy. Maybe that's the difference compared to previous generations that celebrated being sexy rather than cute.
Given the popularity of the Insta baddie look that still prevails, and looking at women like Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner who started the whole super-curvy, big lips etc. trend that also still prevails I don't feel this is true tbh. All of these features lean more towards sexy. Even now that the "heroin chic" look is coming back and the curves are being reduced, it still has overall little to do with neotony (looks more haggard than youthful). That plus the recent, sudden surge in buccal fat removal which also makes people look the opposite of younger and cute, I do wonder how one would come to this conclusion. Everyone I've seen talk about Gen Z keeps saying how they look mature etc., especially in relation to the rise of normalized plastic surgery. See also the video "if you're under 18 you should not look like this..." by Nk's Wrld on this topic. I regularly hang out on TikTok where most Zoomers are and I do not see a push towards looking "cute" at all. Like, absolutely nowhere. I feel like three people is a terrible sample size to base this off, especially since I don't exactly see them touted as the pinnacle of beauty.
Being short isn’t a beauty standard, being medium height for women 5”3-5”9 and 6”0+ has always been the standard. Most women under 5”0 are not even considered to be a partner.
@@Concretesatanic that's so untrue its laughable - being average to tall is a complete disadvantage for women when it comes to dating (men HATE being shorter than their dates) - so long as you are slim being short can be a huge advantage especially if you lean into a look that is cute/ impish/ romantic.
Being medium height for women is the standard, it's just that some people confuse it with being short, because models are supposed to be high. Model height is not a traditional cultural standart for women in many cultures though.
People are getting unhealthier not uglier, people cannot be ugly on the outside only inside, on the outside they can only be unattractive to certain people.
@@turtleby I have noticed so many people telling they have anxieties, problems concentrating, the world is more polluted than before, I think people eat unhealthier than before and spend too much time on the internet or screens in general, people seek help on the internet more than personally talking to other people and reading books, internet is full of rabbit holes with many misinformation and negativity and the unnatural light from the screen is hurting eyes also.
Yeah unhealthy is right. Everyone's working with the same genetics that have been passed down for thousands of years and aging is 80% genetics. The other 20% is how healthy you are with each passing year.
I want to write( I think it is important) that I have had extreme social anxiety, now I do not have it anymore because I eat very healthy(before I did not). I also had very bad image of myself(so many negative thougths of myself and other people too). Now that I eat healthy I do not have any negativity towards myself and other people( I eat mostly plant based now). I feel so happy I never thought imaginable, it is so weird to me still how I felt compared to how I feel now. When I see that most people are looking unhealthy(unhappy) in public I think do they know that eating unhealthy is the main reason why they are unhappy. When you are unhealthy you can not do much good, in my experience unhealthy people are usually very bad people not even neutral. It is not hard to eat healthy also not even more expensive. A saying "You are what you eat" is true, not literally, you are either healthy(happy) or unhealthy(unhappy). I also want to say that no human in this world not even my own mother has made me more happy than I made myself by eating healthy food.
It's very simply racism toward these mixed race kids. There's not much more to it; there's no "scientific basis" to why people are saying this; it's racial resentment. All of these women are gorgeous, and to my personal tastes certainly far more attractive than the standards of the 50s and 80s. Ana Taylor Joy and Natalie Dormer have many of these same features, but you don't see her in these conversations, and these people would in fact consider them very attractive. There's a very obvious reason for that.
Yeah which would be; they’re not so overhyped, carry themselves with class most often/aren’t cringe, and aren’t the face of woke propaganda (by Disney) right now
I’m giving OP alternate obvious reasons that are valid and even highlighted in the video, if you don’t understand the discussion & want to provide constructive input, fuck off Confucius
Beauty basically comes down to health (healthy skin, hair, eyes, etc.), and facial symmetry, which also indirectly comes down to health (because this means that the whole body is most likely also symmetrical where it needs to be). Everything else is racial standards. Indeed, today they have stopped choosing very beautiful people for roles, giving preference to actors with whom an ordinary person associates themselves more. But all the actresses in the preview are clearly beautiful. Just not by Nordic standards.
@@Des_Ogers_Kaeselanze clicked off quick when I realized these aren't real life issues. People are creating problems out of thin air when we need to put our collective effort into so many other things rn. Social media is a fatal distraction.
Don't worry. In another generation all children will be mixed race and the white features will be completely eliminated. Brown or black hair and brown eyes will be the norm. Diversity wins.
Just one small comment. If you are learning Portuguese, remember that most apps (including Babbel by the sounds of things) teach you Brazilian Portuguese. For European Portuguese, it is considered improper to use você for some reason (I don't know why though). They tend to use alternative forms. Also note that in Brazil, they say things like "estou pensando" while in Portugal, they say "estou a pensar" with those expressions meaning "I am thinking". In general, it goes like this in European Portuguese: estou + a + verb. Similarly for the other tenses, European Portuguese goes like: estava + a + verb e.g. estava a pensar (I was thinking). Ultimately, Brazilian Portuguese and European Portuguese do have some differences, significantly more so than the differences that exist between English from the UK and English from America.
As a Portuguese from Portugal, THANK YOU! These apps teach Brazilian Portuguese because there's more touristic engagement and because Brazil is the biggest country that speaks Portuguese, but even Brazilians know that you'll never be considered a fluent Portuguese speaker until you're able to get with our grammatical rules (it's not an accent thing, we all have varying accents in Portugal and even in the Asian and African countries, but we all agree with the grammar)
@@godlovesusall8115 What is the relationship between speaking Brazilian Portuguese and not knowing grammar rules??? The real issue about learning Portuguese with Brazilian accent and going to Portugal is the prejudice that some people in Portugal have about the Brazilian accent. What is the problem of someone learning Portuguese with Brazilian accent? You just clearly demonstrated this prejudice now. As a Portuguese and Brazilian national, I can say that just because you speak Brazilian Portuguese it doesn't mean that you don't know Portuguese grammar!!
@@godlovesusall8115 what do the Brazilians say to this, because I'm doubting there's such a consensus 😂 I'm from a neighbouring country to Brazil and never heard such thing. Or maybe I'm not understanding correctly what you mean with "able to get with our grammatical rules", you mean Portugal's grammatical rules?
@lunahora5512 it's not that you don't know grammar rules, but you are more comfortable using different verbs. Present continuous and gerúndio is used a lot more in Brazil, whereas might sound unnatural in Portugal except for a few rural places. Other differences are asking for café da manhã will get you a cup of coffee instead of breakfast (pequeno almoço), if she asks where is the banheiro instead of casa de banho (toilet in Portugal ) people might not know what she means, and she shouldn't be offended if someone calls her rapariga in Portugal (it means young girl and not prostitute like in Brazil), etc. If she plans on going to Portugal it might be helpful to learn the difference.
Diet is a huge contributor to our looks, even your teeth and jaw will look different depending on what you eat. The environment (pollution), sun exposure, vitamin deficiencies, drug use, water quality, chemical exposure through makeup brands, etc. these were all different for each generation and I think do show up on us as a whole. It's just hard to see small changes in a population until you're years removed.
Ugh I heavily relate to being expected to be submissive and docile. I’m very small for my age and have a very youthful appearance and a babyface. I’ve been infantilised, patronised, and feminised by multiple people attracted to me and I quite frankly loathe it
@@outlawfly664that’s one person. A lot of those women had work done. My great grandma had ghee face lifts throughout her life and she was no famous person I promise, so you think those women got nothing done is crazy
@@izzydandrea7548 Completely inaccurate, that's just one of my examples, there's more where that came from, and she used to be the symbol of the 80s. Same applies to Jennifer Connelly in early 90s, no lifts, surgery etc whatsoever. Now name me one woman in this laughable generation that comes any close to their beauty naturally or unnaturally, never mind talents compared to past generations? Plastic surgery today is an epidemic amongst women whatever you like it or not, same with obesity, all scientifically proven. What's crazy is the fact that a girl/kid (such as yourself) with no life experience, who didn't grew up during those past generations is giving me (a man even) lectures about female beauty. Now having said that, even without surgery women today are inherently less attractive than what they used to be, same applies with young men of today, early millennials where the last generation that where inherently attractive. And not only in general appearance but women today have way less feminine attributes desired by men, they swagger like men to, cover themselves with tattoos and abnormal hair colors (major red flags to), never mind their ugly fashion of sneakers and baggy jeans etc, all major turn offs, go figure.
Physiognomy is still used as a term in modern Greek but mostly for expressing a positive or negative first impression. I would say it is very subjective and not by any means an accurate tool, most people use it more like a gut feeling if anything. Personally, I think reading expressions is far more interesting, both in cartoons and in real life, as it can provide a better reading of person's character and his intentions. You could compare it if you want to how important is the casting of an actor based on his facial features compared to his acting skills, in cartoons it is about character design and animation, meaning the default aesthetics of a character and how those athletics move and interact in a fictional environment. You can absolutely have characters that are designed with those positive physiognomica characteristics that you described but if their animation, or performance (if we are talking about actors) is unexpressive they will pretty soon become forgettable. Think about it, an excretion altimetry is a series of different faces that we make to reveal different aspects of ourselves, you could say that by changing your expression you change your face to become a different person. This could also be contradictory as an innocent face can express malice but then it stops being innocent and becomes unnerving, a serious face can express tenderness and becomes more open and vulnerable. ext.
In the US, Most internet sources site milenials being born from 1980 to 1995, which makes both zendaya and anaya gen z whom were born in 1996 and 1997, respectively. Gen z are born from 1996 to 2010 with some sources citing the cut off as 2012. Every generation is approximately 20 years with some being longer or shorter depending on geopolitical events (if you remember DARE education or where you were on 9/11, you're a millennial) or advancements in technology (if you remember dial up internet or didn't have a smart phone until late teens and early 20s, you're a millennial) On the longer side of generations, the greatest generation were born from 1901 to 1927. This generation spanned longer than 20 years due to the 1st world war and stunted production in many countries which pivoted any advancement in technology toward winning the war. Middle ground: 'Cuspers'--Because generations are as much defined by age/birth year as they are by the way geopolitical events effect society, the generational cut offs are not as fixed as people think them to be... which gives rise to what are called 'cuspers' (Anya and Zendaya), those who are born on the cusp of the cut off and can essentially choose to identify as Gen Z or millennial. Whether or not they identify as gen z or millennial would then depend on the political events they were effected by and/or if they have majority millennial sibling set versus a gen z sibling set (because their siblings would influence which media and pop culture they consume which also have generational differences that are not very apparent in older gen z but are very apparent with younger gen z) Like for references
Most people say that Gen Z starts at 1996, so they can be considered Gen Z, just right at the cusp of Gen Z and millennial. I have seen sometimes that people will differentiate the people at the cusp of generations and give them their own label (example: Generation Jones being made up of late boomers and early Gen X), so maybe there can be another label for those at the cusp of Gen Z and millennial. I've seen Zillenial float around.
The generational lines are not consistent across studies. They’re made up anyway. A 29 year old American millennial who grew up upper income in a city probably has more in common with a 26 year old of the same background than with the average 32 year old.
@LiorGrian it is true that generational lines are not fixed across studies, but they are consistent based on geopolitical events,technology, and many other factors like economics. It may seem as though the 26 year old and the 32 year old from the same economic background have more in common at first glance than the average 32 year old due to shared socioeconomic factors but the 26 year old will not remember flying on a plane before TSA, they would have barely been conscious for the 2008 recession that both 32 year olds were present for, watching their friends and family lose their homes, graduating into a flailing job market with no way to pay our massive student loans.... Those are the kind of lines that define generations, and while shared economics and backgrounds are also factors, the size of their effect is much smaller than all the other events mentioned that define the outlook of a generation (for the most part). Middle ground: Each generation has subgroups due to the long span of generations, so you could be pointing out a potential subgroup
The wide set eyes are a result of good amounts of folic acid in the mother at least 3 mths before getting pregnant. It's a sign of good health and development imo. Cool that you mention and inform us about FAS Edit: it's wrong to harrass Ms Zegler. But she should have been protected better by the studio and have received more media training. It's not professionally sound what happened there.
Where did you hear that about folic acid? I tried to look it up, but couldn't find anything about folic acid causing wide set eyes. The only relation I found said the opposite, in fact. Supposedly folic acid DURING pregnancy can help prevent embryo developmental defects, such as facial bones fusing too soon, which can cause hypertelorism (wide set eyes). As for before pregnancy, I couldn't find anything at all
@@lindenbree9188 firstly vit d, magnesium and vit b12 help and prevent so many issues from sleep problems to asthma and eczema and depression and anxiety. Fermented foods are a massive weapon against depression. About this you will find if you look. Yet they are not a staple in people's lives right. Information takes time to reach the surface if no one decided to pick this as a subject to study and make a scientific report ofc you will find nothing. The source is Dutch people. When you visit the Netherlands you will notice many beautiful people across all ethnicities. When you visit Belgium next to it, you will notice less of that. When there is lack of folic acid you get things like the split upperlip. And sadly w my own children one of them was an unexpected pregnancy and I am a very small person. So due to not taking the folic acid timely, 3 mths before getting pregnant he looks quite different from the other two children: closer set eyes, and cognitively performs less than the other two who both excel at math. Which is not a big deal to me as he is great w his hands and has many ideas about everything. So he excels other forms of intelligence. Anf even if he did not he is welcome, loved and cherished. And what you mention is overly wide set eyes. That will indeed draw attention but because of slightly being unbalanced. An aspiring parent can use this or choose not to. But not sharing would be wrong right.
Wide set eyes can also actually be a distinct sign of fetal alcohol syndrome (a mother drinking when pregnant). This is what the internet says "One of the most distinctive and consistent signs of FAS is found in the eyelids. Affected children often appear to have widely spaced eyes."
I think is what she said in the video, good memories of their past or photos in the past were a big deal so they looked their best for them. But nowadays, Gen Z overshares their not pretty parts because of the internet. Lack of information basically
@@sub.sa.3058 I think the issue of “why do Disney princesses all have eyes too far apart” come down to fashion of the times. Also, big expressive eyes are important for film acting. Like this is some big mystery.
@@samiam2088 how can "eyes too far apart" come down to fashion of the times if it persisted from the 1930s to the present? The "times" have changed at least 4 times since then yet this characteristic survived. Big expressive eyes are important for film acting, but they're also prevalent in cartoons, particularly anime. The reason being that large eyes infantilizes the character, associating them with innocence and goodness. It's why villains, in cartoons, rarely, if ever, have large, round eyes.
To expand on sub.as.3058, I think the reason people think Gen Z look ugly is because they're the most exposed and documented generation on Earth. Back then young people mostly took photo during special occasion and vacation where not only they looked the best but had to prepare themselves because getting photos developed was a process. There was also a mindset of "I want this picture to look nice so we can look back at it in the distant future, to reminisce the our past in material form." While these days photos don't really mean much outside of commercials and branding use, our phones can catch 100s high definition pics/vids in a sec and store it instantly. Another point is that in the distant past media training was extremely important for celebrities and wealthy people, because there were so little access to them that they can control the narrative and perception of their character by selectively choosing what goes to the public and what stays private. Gen Z and even Millennials to an extent broke that mold.
these kind of comments stem from multiple things, such as certain groups' idea of being superior to another. If these were men of colour playing traditionally white characters, people probably would have less to say, since women are more criticised for whatever they do in general. if people (jobless incels) on twitter can call Margot Robbie, a woman who fits the eurocentric beauty standard very well, mid, then you know people are just hating because its a woman. And the concept of beauty keeps evolving, just like how different body types and facial features have been in an out of trend for centuries, with the last century having a different ideal body for each decade. a beauty standard changed in 10 years! People also need to realise that beauty standards are different around the world, and that even among that, beauty is subjective. For example, skin bleaching and lightening in extremely popular in east, sea, and south asian cultures, since it represents a higher social status. however, in western countries, skin tanning is the norm. I once read about how someone had a straight nose, but in their country, a button nose was much preferred and they almost got surgery to change their nose. but once they went to south korea, everyone complimented them on their beautiful nose, since the beauty standard there is to have a straight nose with high nose bridge. Edit: and this ofc could also be because generations always have a dislike for generations before or after them.
New generations have more unrealistic expectations. I think new generations are getting more and more superficial probably because of the advancements of social media. But they are also more unrealistic, like looking to appear a certain way that is not practical or real at all... or too attached too empty images, theories and words instead of focusing on reality itself, or what they really need. It started with my generation (I was born in 1990), I felt it, however, now its much worse... People have even less social skills nowadays... I attended University in London recently which confirmed what I think... I don't think young people now are unattractive, they do however, feel that way, no matter how good they look...it is just never enough good for them. Once again unrealistic expectations..
Everyone in the thumbnail is mixed race. Many mixed race people get wide set eyes from their nonwhite side. This looks normal on asian, black, hispanic etc people because the corners of their eyes line up with the corners of their nostrils. But if someone is mixed with a race that has a narrower nose, the distance between the eyes looks exaggerated
On niceness vs kindness- gen z might very well be less nice, but they are far more kind. I'd rather have kind people (honest, caring about equity, acceptance, open mindedness, being real) than nice people (polite for conflict avoidance sake, disingenuous, professionalism for respectability politics sake, keeping the peace for appearances without being honest and real)
Well, she’s pretty but nothing special about her. I feel people overhype her, I think I only watched her in Spiderman and I find her acting there to be cringy and makes her character kind of unlikable. But I’m sure she at least acts better in other films I just haven’t gotten to watch them.
Tbh I do agree that today's generation doesn't have well develop facial bones regardless of race. I am brown and I have an average jawline and cheek bones. My parents and grandparents on the other hand have a very well developed Mandible, maxilla and cheek bones. Qoves was right. I don't live in a western country either. The beauty standard here are very different but I have noticed from old pics of my parent's generation that they were actually looking very mature. I blame our lifestyle rather than "beauty standards". Sure, in a white majority country other races might be unfairly judged. But I do agree that the current generation looks very immature regardlessof the race. And its all thanks to our food habits. Edit: i do have to point out that the beauty stansards here are very different to west. A big nose isn't really clowned upon. And jawline and cheekbones imo are universally found attractive. Every person has an ability to develop a proper jawline. It's our habits and food that makes it underdeveloped and has nothing to do with "superior genes™️."
As a millennial, we didn't pay attention to jawlines like the younger generations do. I think we cared more about our weight. I see you're not from a western country, so I'm not sure how the generational "break down" (baby boomer, gen x, millennial, etc) applies to people from non-western countries. I think it's a trend taken more seriously particularly by Gen Z, therefore attractiveness focuses even more on bone structure.
@@Anya-jk2dyAgreed. Us Millennials were 100% more focused on maintaining a healthy weight rather than paying attention to individual features on our faces. Our fashions of low raise jeans,crop tops and backless tops emphasised that also.
Gen Z could be perceived as less attractive because of a few things: •less emphasis on traditional beauty, but there is emphasis on aesthetic and beauty nonetheless, just not what people have in mind usually •we speak our mind and have often very challenging thoughts and older gens ( older than millennial ) hate it • fashion sense is weird to other gens • perceived to be brain dead, lazy, useless, addicted to phones, bratty, entitled
It's kind of messed up how older generations criticize us for being insecure over our looks and obsessed with looking perfect, complaining that we're "growing up too fast", and yet they make comments about how we're apparently uglier than them, even when many of us are still teenagers. Yeah, I really wonder why so many of us are so insecure and obsessed with our looks... Then you also have people saying the opposite about us, saying that we're "better looking" or "sexier" to use it against us, saying, "Oh, it's because they had better lives than us." or, "It's because they are more vain and therefore take care of themselves more." These people need to make up their minds. Please. They just want to say whatever will put us down. This isn't about facts. This is about them finding more and more ways to bully young people to lift themselves up.
Very few of the women at 1:29 are conventionally attractive, even by 1950s standards. It's just that women made an effort to dress and keep themselves up back in the day. People owned fewer clothes, but they were of quality. You looked nice even if going grocery shopping. People are just slobs today
And they spoke and acted with class, compare any older interviews with what was at that time the younger generation and you could just cringe when comparing them to now. They can't even answer basic questions on Mathematics, Geography, History etc.
I always thought that the disney princeses had strange looking eyes. Not what you would see in an ordinary person, beautiful or not. But then, they were always cartoons, not real people. I don't believe that most people are beautiful. Most people are ordinary looking but what makes a person seem beautiful is a good personality.
Can’t people be pretty in their own way? Those actresses are pretty. And so is that girl in the drive through. I do agree people looked very different than today and sometimes I see people with vintage or retro faces.
3:26 That's exactly the "problem". The internet is anti-normal. Everything is about being pretty or being "lol so random" or having "rizz" or having some made-up gender/sexuality or being a moral busybody or virtue signaling. You get the idea. You have to be special somehow: you can't just BE
Many people may prefer the "some random cashier" looking person (who is still seen as more attractive than the average), as they might be seen as more relatable.
There's nothing wrong with Halle or Rachel's appearance. Rachel comes off as a mean girl in interviews and on twitter, which is why I don't like her. But she's very pretty.
I started laughing when you said internet weirdos were claiming wide set eyes were the result of "fetal alcohol syndrome" but I laughed even harder when I tried typing that into a search engine. The first attempt was "fecal" alcohol syndrome, the second attempt was "feral" alcohol syndrome. Gawd. More coffee needed.
As a so called millennial I feel like whoever’s saying that about gen Z is super mean. I don’t get it, why are people saying that. Saying they look older is one thing, but another to nitpick their looks. I’m sure all Gen Zs are very adorable. My gosh this poor generation needs a break from caring about looks. We will all age, nobody cares.
I remember from a young age comparing myself to Disney princesses, and other cartoons where girls and women always where illustrated in the same way: Big and far set eyes with pronounced double eyelids, tall and rounded forehead, small mouth with big to medium lips, tiny nose, long and thick hair, giant head. And I remember I was sad that I didn’t really look like them, I looked more like the evil or the “ugly” characters with my big and long crooked nose, small, hooded, close and deep set eyes, broad mouth with thin lips, flat forehead, thin hair, small head. I had and still have the opposite of neotenous features. I have always related more to Quasimodo (❤) than to Ariel and Rapunzel. I'm still waiting for the day Disney makes an "ugly" princess or heroine.
Don't let it bring you down. There are millions who look closer to how you look than those pictures! If someone falls in love with your character or your actions they will find your face charming regardless of how your natural face looks.
Most women in the world don't have neotenous features. Or only have one feature that is neotenous, and the rest are not. If we step outside and look at real people, as well as searching online pictures of real people in various countries, we can see that majority of women have non-neotenous features.
Weird to me to hear that people think wide set eyes are unattractive. I think they’re super attractive and ethereal. It gives that like lifted model look
Hey! I'm glad you enjoyed Portugal and are learning the language! Keep in mind though, Babbel offers Brazilian portuguese, which has some differences from European Portuguese, so you might have a couple of misunderstandings when talking to a native Portuguese person. Nevertheless I'd say most people in Portugal are very nice and welcoming (as you've probably already realised when you went there 😄) and will try to help in case of need so you should be fine getting your point across.

Yes, imagination can drive human progress and innovation, but it can also lead to horrific tragedies like genocide and widespread discrimination.

A man saying "kids aren't as hot as they used to be" while also talking about low intelligence is extremely telling
Wait but did he actually say hot
I've always thought of the colloquialism "hot" as not so much a degree of physical beauty as it is a particular type. Hot is more in accordance with modern iterations of beauty, rather than classical standards.
I think of Kylie Jenner as "hot" and Scarlett Johansson as beautiful.
I understood this as him saying that Genz looks way younger as the previous Generations when they were at their age.

According to an aesthetics company. Hmm... Sounds like they're trying to gaslight a generation into buying cosmetic procedures.
Trying? They've succeeded from what I can see
@@QTpatootie95their cooment section is literally insane, complete delulu circus 🎪
As well as plastic surgery consulting.
My thoughts exactly!
but they don't offer cosmetic procedures :D they only offer facial analysis and make suggestions to improve your looks with or without procedurs. If the person then wants procedures they have to go to actual plastic surgeons.
They cherry pick "ugly" pictures, with no makeup, no hairstyle and with a particular expression to compare with a smiling woman who wears makeup and whose hair is down and styled
They have makeup in every picture. And the ugly "IDC" hair is itself a hairstyle. None of these women are just rolling out of bed looking like that.

We really need to normalize not wearing make up for women because it's scary that people like you really believe a woman can only be attractive if her real face is literally covered under layers of a product, while men of course aren't required to put all that stuff on their faces to be considered attractive.

Way to call the WHOLE generation ugly. These people weird me out. What society deemed attractive throughout the ages changed basically with every generation.

You're right the standards have fallen in other words
Ask them to explain a strong jaw and then ask a Boxing coach the same question. I guarantee you’ll get two different answers
I don’t think gen z is less attractive, I think it’s that we’ve changed our standard of who we expect to see in commercials, tv etc. Growing up in the early 2000’s pretty much every fashion model, super model, and even most lead actresses in tv were all super attractive, far more than the average person. Nowadays the fashion models for most clothing brands just look like regular people, because brands are far less picky about who they choose, which I personally think it’s a good thing. However just looking at media today and media at any point in history before 2010, there’s a stark difference in conventional attractiveness to those shown on camera, which gives the illusion like our generation ran out of attractive people to cast which just isn’t true
Yup. It's essentially a type of representative bias that is being used to substantiate the theorem that gen z is less attractive than previous gens. True beauty has always been the exception in the general population, rather than the norm.
I will not comment on the face of gene z, however their bodies are awful 😣. The obesity rate and their health problems at such young age.
Yeah if these people watched British tv, which isn't afraid to cast actual average looking people, they would think Brits are all quasimodos🙄
Or that u can become a models/celebrity with your phone
A lot of those models were clinically Anorexic. They were certainly not healthy role models. Add to that the fact that even they did not, in person, look like they did in the ads and you realize that the standard of beauty put up was not attainable by ANYBODY and thus led to mass body dysmorphia.

More filters more beauty
Honestly I feel this way from my own perspective. Whenever I come across an instagram post or yt video of anyone that’s supposed to be a 10/10 I just don’t really think they’re anything special anymore. It may just be because not only are we exposed to beautiful faces all the time but we are also exposed to the same type of beautiful face all the time. There’s no versatility, just the same copy paste people. And while yes they are objectively attractive, I just can’t bring myself to praise their looks because I feel like I can see their face anywhere. A big part of whether or not someone is attractive is the uniqueness of their features, at least for me. And if the same faces are constantly being shoved down my throat they’re not unique anymore, they don’t catch my attention like they once did.
It's hypocrisy. If you like unique faces date an acid victim. They have the most unique faces on the planet.
You still want something beautiful by beauty standards. You just don't like the mainstream. Big deal. Go meet some people from any alternative scene on this planet. They are just like you

Fixating on single facial features, sizes, or colors showcases an completley absent sense of beauty because beauty is a matter of interest, harmony, and emotion. These tiktokers need to put down their phones and go to a museum.
I've noticed SO MANY TIMES that overfilled lips (that I'm quite frankly disgusted by, 10/10 cases I think the person was more attractive before them) actually look great when you cut them out from the rest of the face. Like only lips+chin or like on these insta before-afters where there's only lips up close. In those cases I can even understand why some people might want those. But when you see the whole face... NOPE. It throws off the harmony so much, making them look like alien slug parasites
Ppl that make it in Hollywood usually play the casting couch game,so what we see on screen aren't always the most talented,beautiful ppl
Exactly. I never understood how people say XY has beautiful teeth, ergo XY is beautiful. No. There are some features that are beautiful in themselves, yes. But the entirety of features makes up a beautiful face meaning that a thin lipped person can still be beautiful despite society going nutts over full lips. A wide nosed person, somebody with a high forehead, somebody with a round face, a long nose etc. All those features that are said to be less attractive can be (and often are) part of a beautiful face. Because the harmony of all these features make up a striking, lovely face. That's why an actress like the one from dirty dancing is lovely with an "unattractive" nose and forgettable with a "beautiful" nose. Why people, women especially, won't get that is beyond me.

We know that the testosterone levels of todays males are lower than males in the past. This would correlate with the knowledge of how Testosterone levels greatly effect bone structure, Hair growth, hair loss, aging, skin elasticity, ect. All of which would help to explain this phenomenon.
I see people are hastily looking to dismiss that this could be happening and I want to know why
Younger women are not as fixated on the male gaze, there fore their over all looks, via make up, clothes, fabrics, textures, colours, haircuts, shapes in shilouettes, shoes, patterns, and accessories makes them look more unike and less like the ideal. Earlier generations did not embrace their uniqueness as much. Now young women (dare to) choose to accentuate features they want to enhance, rather than what society/the norm tells us to want to look like to fit in. I believe this is one of the factors as well. We want to look more diverse, we choose and dare to accentuate our unique features more than generations before us did. We used to do all we possible could to fit the mould. All the beauty books and tips and tricks was designed to trick the eye into believing we had for example long legs, even ratio lips, etc etc
You were expected to hide and accentuate to look identical, according to the set norm, wich was never as wide and diverse as today.
Do I have a point? Kitty in 🇸🇪
Those are still influenced by the male gaze. Women speak of the male gaze like it's a bad thing but it's what shaped civilization and continues to do so. Walls and pillars were erected from the male gaze. Male gaze is what shaped reality. It's a male super power. The male gaze can take a bad situation and turn it into a good situation. Why do you think there are men that are into weird things?
You are extremely correct. However, this mindset was the cultural norm amongst Americans.
Nowadays, it's the female gaze and men are pressured to fixate on it which, in terms, backfires against women because everything was not erected from the female gaze.

i find kidology to be such a beautiful woman not only because i personally find her beautiful outwardly, but her intelligence, & the way she speaks and carries herself is gorgeous.
That's a matter of opinion and depends who you're comparing her to.
For a start, she's wearing weave, would you find her as attractive if she wore her much shorter and tighter hair?
You might, but the question still needs to be asked? I just see a really bad wig and an okay face, cute, but nothing special. Perhaps the wig is actually detracting from her facial attractiveness and she'd look better without it.
Most women today are literally filtered up to the eyeballs and hardly have any of their actual natural selves on show, so it's difficult to authentically rate any of them as attractive or not until you see them first thing in the morning with literally everything in their make-up routine taken off.
I think she will be considered a millennial not a Gen Z. Also neither Zendaya or Anya Taylor Jones will be considered Gen Z.
How can Kidology not date you if you simp this badly for her ?
From my experience, when people decide they dislike your personality they start to attack your facial features. It has nothing to do with the actualy facial features or whether they actually find you beautiful or ugly. Somebody who has a bad personality will immediately lose all the good looks in most people's eyes. For Zeigler, people dislike the way she talks, call her cringe and her personality unpleasant and that is why they started to also attack her looks. I remember people praising her looks before her interviews came out and only afterwards did people start saying bad things about the way she looks. For Bailey, people were upset about the Disney remake so they attacked her appearance. It's never actually about the appearance, except maybe in the case of Anya Taylor-Joy who people also make fun of for having wide set eyes but I don't think people particularly dislike her personality (correct me if I'm wrong because I don't know much about her). She just had the misfortune of being lumped together with the other two at a time when it's really popular to bring down women for their looks.

I think Kid hit the nail on the head: these actresses are pretty but they do not cater to a certain type of male's attention when they speak and dress....so these men have to write whole theories about why these women are actually ugly in order to deal with the dissonance. I'm reminded about how there were extended debates about Lady Gaga (hot or not) by men in the early 2010's, she we just so theatrical in her fashion and her sexuality was always mixed with something flamboyant - it was all so confusing for them.

I think the best action everyone can take is to stay away from social media as much as possible, especially the cesspool that tik tok probably is.
Another segment of this bizarre hatred, to me, is jealousy - plain and simple. Both actresses are very pretty but they are also supremely gifted singers and have made their way to the Hollywood A-list at quite a fast pace. So the only way to discredit them? Call them “inferior females” because of some kooky, antiquated and/or racist pseudoscience. It’s giving low self-esteem.

All of these actresses are over 30, so they aren't really relevant to the current standards.
I'm a younger millennial, and I think my generation has started plenty if unhealthy beauty trends. But it just seems like now, particularly with many members of the Gen Z, the only thing that counts in this world is how good your face looks. I see people rip each other apart so much more online now on really specific physical features that I don't feel like millennials and older generations paid much attention to. The assesments made, sound like the detailed analyses made by plastic surgeons. We mostly cared about not being "fat," which isn't good, but losing weight or keeping in shape is a lot more attainable than changing your bone structure. It just seems everything is even more unattainable now, and requires surgery. If anything, I think the older generations look more "plain" compared to Gen Z.
My mom and her twin brother have physical impacts from alcohol exposure. Their eyes aren't wide apart at all, rather, bones are missing from their faces. They git very lucky that they aren't particularly disfigured because of it. My gran didn't care to put down the bottle unfortunately.
I mean, your bone structure, facial features, and height are, for the most part, genetically pre-determined for you. However, when you're young and your bones and muscles are still malleable, illnesses (like chronic sinus infections) and nutritional deficiencies can deform the shape of the face and stunt the growth of a child who would otherwise have a genetic predisposition to be tall-statured and have a normal, well-proportioned face.
After that point, the only option the individual has is to practice healthy eating habits and work out so they make their physique more attractive and possibly get cosmetic surgery on their face if they can afford it.
@@SarahSmirnovaThat's the problem though. I think we as a society are looking too hard at our features and assessing where we (or our parents) went "wrong," and thinking we need to correct things that aren't broken. Especially in the western world, where people have access to nutrition and healthcare, and prenatal care. Any deviation from health growing up has trivial differences in one's appearance in most cases (unless you're a plastic surgeon, then any "flaw" is obvious). Gen Z particularly, seems to have a plastic surgeon's view on beauty, and is too open minded towards cosmetic surgery. Everyone has their own destiny, but, this is extremely destructive for kids. More younger and younger people are wasting time with goals of attaining "beauty" rather than what kind of skills, and actions, and service to society that they want to achieve. Looks fade, but trades don't. It seems like many members of Gen Z have a hard time accepting that most people look "average" and will always look that way.
Way back, plastic surgery was more commonly reconstructive. I wish we could go back to that view.
@Anya-jk2dy One thing I do agree with you on here is that no one, gen z or otherwise, should focus exclusively on beauty or attractiveness at the expense of developing non-physical traits like intelligence, character, and skill competence. And yes, the "beauty fades" aphorism is just a biological reality. Very few people have the income to afford rejuvenative surgeries and procedures when they become middle-aged. Even the ones who have the luxury to get their faces and skin reconstructed won't look like they are 25 when they are 60. It's just not possible, at least with our current technology. Though, I would like to see a world where aging is a thing of the past, along with intellectual, psychological, and physical disorders. But of course, these are all complicated topics. The molecular mechanisms of aging are only starting to be understood, therefore research in this area isn't really that extensive yet. As for physical and mental handicaps and their societal and individual life quality impact, it seems most people don't want to openly discuss this topic because eugenics is perceived as ableist and politically incorrect by the general populace.
I have seen a number of people comment under this video that intelligence and beauty are correlated. I do agree, to an extent, that those two phenomena are related for a few reasons. 1. People who are more intelligent tend to take better care of themselves, tend to practice healthy nutritional habits, and work out regularly. These practices also have a bidirectional correlation with intelligence because eating nutritious foods and doing vigorous exercise stimulate neurogenesis. 2. Facial symmetry, to a certain point, is correlated with intelligence. Notice that most, or all, congenital diseases characterized by facial abnormalities also have intellectual impairment as a clinical feature. Just like with any general phenomenon, there are exceptions to this. I have known very intelligent people in my life who hated exercise and ate very poorly. I suppose spending long periods of time doing research and writing-intensive work, which often requires sitting, can cause one to neglect one's health.
But I think there is a point where IQ and attractiveness start to not be correlated, or only have a negligible association. For example, almost anyone can see that most individuals who have made significant contributions to the fields of science, medicine, and philosophy throughout history were, at best, completely average-looking. Some were even unattractive. Yet, almost none of these people had IQ scores below 140.
It doesn't seem that, in the real world, average looks automatically = average IQ and that exceptional looks = exceptionally high IQ.
I realize these are anecdotes, but, for now, I can only go by real world examples to substantiate my claim because studies in intelligence, ones which follow actual academic rigour, seem to be scarce in the public domain for people to read and interpret.
I see where you are coming from, but for things often considered vain, such as anti-aging--is it actually necessary and an effective usage of resources, since humans can expect to all die one day? Consider that studies on intelligence, including genes that may or may not contribute to intelligence are not all-inclusive to the human population, rather, on certain populations. Similarly, genes associated with "attractiveness" are not all inclusive to the general human population, rather, based on certain populations. And definitions of beauty change.
As you know, going under the knife contributes neither to intelligence, longevity, or long-term improvement in aging. Similarly, parents who go through IVF and select the "best" embryos are not guaranteed more successful, attractive or healthy offspring. That's why eugenics is largely shaky, on top of small factions of people that have the potential to do harmful things with it.

The example of traditional wide-eyed Disney princesses were cartoons, made up. It is also clear that Marilyn Monroe and even more so Jacklyn Kennedy had wide set eyes. But these women are from another era. Rachel Zegler and Halle Bailey were chosen because they look like the cartoon ideal. They are both very pretty girls but probably at the extreme end of wide eye separation. You may be onto something that since their behavior is different than their 'baby' looks, they are more rejected.
I really don’t disagree with you other than the wide-eyed look having something to do with the hate let’s say Rachel Ziegler is facing. I’d think it’s the opposite actually, she’s getting off way easily as she’s so cute & pretty. The drama has already died down mostly. So..

Another contemplative, stellar video. A little while ago, I was pondering this Rachel Zegler situation… yes, she may have said some cringe things… but she’s so young. Only 22… and was raised in the 21st century with all the woke indoctrination. We’ve all said extremely cringe things at one time or another but she has to navigate maturing as a public figure. There’s no forgiveness to be found on the internet. But, really… she said some cringe things about a *cartoon* . The people castigating her for it likely haven’t paid mind to the original cartoon ever before but suddenly, they’re sending death threats to her for saying uncharitable things about it. Odd. Those people need to find better things to care about.
Right? Coming across videos from grown ass men whining about this girl has been daunting to say the least. Like she has any affect on their lives.

Love this video. I don't understand why this is the case, since in makeup theory we always teach that normally spaced eyes are the norm (it's when you can fit the width of the eye between the eyes) but wide set eyes are considered more attractive throughout history (I've always used Rihanna and Kate Moss as example)...
It's the reason why we usually do makeup the way we do it most often without even realizing : light inner corner to widen that space and dark outer corner to elongate the eye toward the temples.
I am considered aesthetically unattractive . I grew up in the 60s. The ideal was pug nosed, blue eyed, blond, with pink skin and thin lips, with perfectly straight, white teeth. As a child I was dark, thin, tall, prominently nosed, buck toothed,beige skinned,narrowed eye bridge. I grew up in a conservative state, and frequently was subjected to “Whar ARE you” questions, and had been attacked by anti-semites. Now I am fat, old, etc. i never thought I was unattractive, but when I was othered by other white people, it was difficult to find a date, and made me cynical. When I moved out of the country, it was a new world. I suppose being a foreigner, I was seen as exotic, so in a year I had dates like I never had in my entire life. The US beauty standards are so narrow
You don't consider Jewish to be white??? LOL! at "being othered by white people" I truly doubt people stopped you in the street to ask "What are you"? as if all white people are blond and bue-eyed.
Was this in Germany during the Holocaust, cause if sure didn't happen in the US.
Hi kid! I’m Brazilian and I get so happy to see other people learning Portuguese. in other videos you said that you’re actually interested in the language because you want to visit Portugal, but I hope you also get to enjoy Brazil ❤
another tip is, netflix has some good tv series and documentaries in Portuguese (mostly Brazilian but also Portuguese) so you can get some references for the usage of slangs
Boa sorte no seu aprendizado 💕
“Come to Brazil!”
I went to Rio in July and I loved it! I'm learning Portuguese in college.
Nobody cares, dude. 😂😂
Literally nobody cares about Brazil, it's one of the most non tourist friendly countries out there, the language is beautiful but Brazil is basically Mexico but worse lol Portugal is also pretty boring but at least it's 200% safer than Brazil in all ways
Don't go to Brazil if you're reading this, go to Spain or Canada
@@sonia__green come to Minas Gerais later, far better than Rio
Considering the sample is from actresses, maybe its because more ordinary looking actresses are actually becoming big on that quirk of... you know... talent! Than actually being selected for roles based on good looks? (well, good looks according to fat old rich men who make those choices). Also all 3 highlighted are still attractive if in an unconventional way.
More than half we're mangled by plastic surgeons tho lol
Pretty wild to insinuate that actresses today are better than the past, hard to remember most performances from actresses these days, let alone find good ones.
Acting, imo, is not that difficult of a skill to master (unless we're talking about extreme and unique roles that require eccentric performances). Any regular person can act as a different regular person with just a little bit of practice so looks have always been the priority when it comes to casting in movies.
The actresses today look unattractive to these Millenial and Gen X commenters because, well, the beauty standards have changed like they always keep changing. This is not a new phenomenon. I know people laude Marilyn Monroe as the most beautiful woman of all time but I swear, seeing her photos from even from her prime days today, she just appears 'meh' to me. She's not ugly but she's definitely not the most beautiful woman ever by today's standards.
I was born in the mid 90s (which is on the boarder of millenial and gen z) so I'm a Millenial when it comes to some things and a Gen Z when it comes to others. I honestly find both Millenial actresses AND Gen z actresses attractive. However, in another 25 years, I imagine I won't be attracted to the newly upcoming Gen Alpha actresses because their beauty standards would be different. I sure hope I have better hobbies then than making videos about how I'm not attracted to women who are young enough to be my kids.
@hittingyouoverthehead nah I'm the same age and I think Marilyn Monroe was super attractive, it's her chemistry, her essence not just her looks, but still the most beautiful of all time
Also I think Hollywood is borrowing some of it's sensibilities from the world of high fashion - which is to say they are intentionally selecting people that have something odd to their look in a way this may be a reaction to plastic surgery culture that seeks to create a samey yet generic kardashian face.
Personally, I think the smug entitlement personality trait is a huge dealbreaker,
no matter how physically attractive you think you are.
👏👏👏
One easy, obvious explanation: many of the images we're using to judge Gen Z's attractiveness were shot with phones or pocket cameras, which have wide-angle lenses that distort images in a way that's unflattering to most human faces. Without getting too technical, all lenses have a focal length, and a lens that shows you roughly what your eye sees with minimal distortion will have a focal length of 50-55 mm. To flatter the human face, you want a longer lens, 85 - 135 mm, with a lot of photographers (me, for example) favoring the 105 mm lens as kindest to the largest number of human faces.
Phone lenses are way short of that optimal length, most being only 24 to 27 mm, which gives the same effect as looking in a convex funhouse mirror, though we're all so used to phone selfies that we hardly notice the distortion any more. (If an expensive phone claims to have a "zoom" lens, it's generally just twice as long as the 24-27 mm lens, making it not a true zoom but a "what the eye sees" 50-55 mm lens.) With very few and rare exceptions, no phone has a true zoom lens, though they may have what's called "digital zoom," which is basically just a partial enlargement of a wide-angle shot and doesn't correct the distortion that results from shooting at a short focal length.
And, yes, one feature of that distortion will be to make eyes look farther apart. Wide-spaced eyes look beautiful when shot with a modest zoom but a little freakish when shot with a 24 mm camera phone.
Try it yourself. Rent a camera with a 105 mm OPTICAL zoom lens and a tripod. Shoot a whole bunch of selfies. Then unscrew the camera from the tripod and screw on your cell phone, and, if the phone has a "zoom" option, use it. Shoot another round of selfies, as much like the first round as possible. Compare the images; I promise you, unless your face is flat as a pancake with all your features scrunched together in the middle, you will look A LOT better in the photos shot with the 105 mm optical zoom. In other words, some of the supposed changes in the way people look are really due to changes in equipment and media.
That's a good point. If we saw people in person we'd consider their looks differently.
Don't you think that a 3 minute Babbel ad is a little too much? 😂
Just skip the ad, friend, it’s not that complicated.
It is too much
Way way too much Babbel, get to the point.
Damn fr, wish there was a way to fast forward the video at that part somehow, oh well 🤷🏽♀️🤔😔

I'm hoping we'll be getting some livestreams soon too
@@Rig0r_M0rtisYeah, I've been hoping for the return of the livestreams.
I take anything that suggests that one generation is more attractive than another with a pinch of salt. Something that has changed is the amount of make up, tan, eyebrow shaping, fillers, cosmetic procedures etc. Personally I find nearly all of it makes people less attractive, though I appreciate that ymmv. And whatever you think of them, it's inevitable that like with all fads and fashions, these interferences will go out of style within a generation or so.
ok
Amen, if it looks fake it's not particularly attractive to me. That said, I'm an elder Millennial, so ancient by their standards 😂
I feel like having a neotenous features is the beauty ideal in the culture at the moment. Wide set eyes, being short, being cute rather than sexy. Maybe that's the difference compared to previous generations that celebrated being sexy rather than cute.
Being short is not a beauty standard for both genders, being tall accentuate your appearance, being short makes you look unnoticeable
Given the popularity of the Insta baddie look that still prevails, and looking at women like Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner who started the whole super-curvy, big lips etc. trend that also still prevails I don't feel this is true tbh. All of these features lean more towards sexy. Even now that the "heroin chic" look is coming back and the curves are being reduced, it still has overall little to do with neotony (looks more haggard than youthful). That plus the recent, sudden surge in buccal fat removal which also makes people look the opposite of younger and cute, I do wonder how one would come to this conclusion.
Everyone I've seen talk about Gen Z keeps saying how they look mature etc., especially in relation to the rise of normalized plastic surgery. See also the video "if you're under 18 you should not look like this..." by Nk's Wrld on this topic. I regularly hang out on TikTok where most Zoomers are and I do not see a push towards looking "cute" at all. Like, absolutely nowhere. I feel like three people is a terrible sample size to base this off, especially since I don't exactly see them touted as the pinnacle of beauty.
Being short isn’t a beauty standard, being medium height for women 5”3-5”9 and 6”0+ has always been the standard. Most women under 5”0 are not even considered to be a partner.
@@Concretesatanic that's so untrue its laughable - being average to tall is a complete disadvantage for women when it comes to dating (men HATE being shorter than their dates) - so long as you are slim being short can be a huge advantage especially if you lean into a look that is cute/ impish/ romantic.
Being medium height for women is the standard, it's just that some people confuse it with being short, because models are supposed to be high. Model height is not a traditional cultural standart for women in many cultures though.
People are getting unhealthier not uglier, people cannot be ugly on the outside only inside, on the outside they can only be unattractive to certain people.
i agree, genz is so much unhealthier for sure, both physically, mentally, and emotionally(im genz myself)
@@turtleby I have noticed so many people telling they have anxieties, problems concentrating, the world is more polluted than before, I think people eat unhealthier than before and spend too much time on the internet or screens in general, people seek help on the internet more than personally talking to other people and reading books, internet is full of rabbit holes with many misinformation and negativity and the unnatural light from the screen is hurting eyes also.
Yeah unhealthy is right. Everyone's working with the same genetics that have been passed down for thousands of years and aging is 80% genetics. The other 20% is how healthy you are with each passing year.
I want to write( I think it is important) that I have had extreme social anxiety, now I do not have it anymore because I eat very healthy(before I did not). I also had very bad image of myself(so many negative thougths of myself and other people too). Now that I eat healthy I do not have any negativity towards myself and other people( I eat mostly plant based now). I feel so happy I never thought imaginable, it is so weird to me still how I felt compared to how I feel now. When I see that most people are looking unhealthy(unhappy) in public I think do they know that eating unhealthy is the main reason why they are unhappy. When you are unhealthy you can not do much good, in my experience unhealthy people are usually very bad people not even neutral. It is not hard to eat healthy also not even more expensive. A saying "You are what you eat" is true, not literally, you are either healthy(happy) or unhealthy(unhappy). I also want to say that no human in this world not even my own mother has made me more happy than I made myself by eating healthy food.
It's very simply racism toward these mixed race kids. There's not much more to it; there's no "scientific basis" to why people are saying this; it's racial resentment. All of these women are gorgeous, and to my personal tastes certainly far more attractive than the standards of the 50s and 80s.
Ana Taylor Joy and Natalie Dormer have many of these same features, but you don't see her in these conversations, and these people would in fact consider them very attractive. There's a very obvious reason for that.
Yeah which would be; they’re not so overhyped, carry themselves with class most often/aren’t cringe, and aren’t the face of woke propaganda (by Disney) right now
@aphrodieMonkey dude, wtf are u even talking about? It appears ur detached from the reality of the world. Touch grass, oh wise one
I’m giving OP alternate obvious reasons that are valid and even highlighted in the video, if you don’t understand the discussion & want to provide constructive input, fuck off Confucius
@aphrodieMonkey "woke propaganda" I.e. being black/mixed race lmao
Beauty basically comes down to health (healthy skin, hair, eyes, etc.), and facial symmetry, which also indirectly comes down to health (because this means that the whole body is most likely also symmetrical where it needs to be). Everything else is racial standards. Indeed, today they have stopped choosing very beautiful people for roles, giving preference to actors with whom an ordinary person associates themselves more. But all the actresses in the preview are clearly beautiful. Just not by Nordic standards.
Finally someone agrees with me that Zendaya is not hot.
This conversation only exists for the chronically online. No one cares about these themes and people in the Real World.

Thank you!
"Feminism and mental issues" Yep, that's about right..
It’s giving, “gen z is the most diverse generation and white beauty standards are becoming less sought after therefore gen z is “unattractive.”
Basically
Don't worry. In another generation all children will be mixed race and the white features will be completely eliminated. Brown or black hair and brown eyes will be the norm. Diversity wins.
What makes a person attractive is 20% about looks and 80% about personality and habits
You seem intelligent, funny, and delightful! Great video!!
Just one small comment. If you are learning Portuguese, remember that most apps (including Babbel by the sounds of things) teach you Brazilian Portuguese. For European Portuguese, it is considered improper to use você for some reason (I don't know why though). They tend to use alternative forms.
Also note that in Brazil, they say things like "estou pensando" while in Portugal, they say "estou a pensar" with those expressions meaning "I am thinking".
In general, it goes like this in European Portuguese: estou + a + verb. Similarly for the other tenses, European Portuguese goes like: estava + a + verb e.g. estava a pensar (I was thinking).
Ultimately, Brazilian Portuguese and European Portuguese do have some differences, significantly more so than the differences that exist between English from the UK and English from America.
As a Portuguese from Portugal, THANK YOU! These apps teach Brazilian Portuguese because there's more touristic engagement and because Brazil is the biggest country that speaks Portuguese, but even Brazilians know that you'll never be considered a fluent Portuguese speaker until you're able to get with our grammatical rules (it's not an accent thing, we all have varying accents in Portugal and even in the Asian and African countries, but we all agree with the grammar)
One of my kids picked Portuguese on Duolingo. Is that also Brazilian Portuegese? Yikes edited for correct spelling of Portuguese
@@godlovesusall8115 What is the relationship between speaking Brazilian Portuguese and not knowing grammar rules??? The real issue about learning Portuguese with Brazilian accent and going to Portugal is the prejudice that some people in Portugal have about the Brazilian accent. What is the problem of someone learning Portuguese with Brazilian accent? You just clearly demonstrated this prejudice now. As a Portuguese and Brazilian national, I can say that just because you speak Brazilian Portuguese it doesn't mean that you don't know Portuguese grammar!!
@@godlovesusall8115 what do the Brazilians say to this, because I'm doubting there's such a consensus 😂 I'm from a neighbouring country to Brazil and never heard such thing.
Or maybe I'm not understanding correctly what you mean with "able to get with our grammatical rules", you mean Portugal's grammatical rules?
@lunahora5512
it's not that you don't know grammar rules, but you are more comfortable using different verbs. Present continuous and gerúndio is used a lot more in Brazil, whereas might sound unnatural in Portugal except for a few rural places. Other differences are asking for café da manhã will get you a cup of coffee instead of breakfast (pequeno almoço), if she asks where is the banheiro instead of casa de banho (toilet in Portugal ) people might not know what she means, and she shouldn't be offended if someone calls her rapariga in Portugal (it means young girl and not prostitute like in Brazil), etc. If she plans on going to Portugal it might be helpful to learn the difference.
Seeing the most insane tiktoks ever have like 300k likes really makes me question everything
Diet is a huge contributor to our looks, even your teeth and jaw will look different depending on what you eat. The environment (pollution), sun exposure, vitamin deficiencies, drug use, water quality, chemical exposure through makeup brands, etc. these were all different for each generation and I think do show up on us as a whole. It's just hard to see small changes in a population until you're years removed.
We have been dreaming of these alien faces for generations. We can see it in work of Disney and in manga. And the time has come.

Ugh I heavily relate to being expected to be submissive and docile. I’m very small for my age and have a very youthful appearance and a babyface. I’ve been infantilised, patronised, and feminised by multiple people attracted to me and I quite frankly loathe it
In the 80s, more average looking people were actresses and actors. They weren't so plastic. I hope we go back to that era.
80s was great, but the 90s even greater
You think none of the 80s actresses had plastic surgery?? 🤣
@@snehajagajith6409 Not in the same extent as modern actresses, not even close. You think Brooke Shields had plastic surgery? Try harder
@@outlawfly664that’s one person. A lot of those women had work done. My great grandma had ghee face lifts throughout her life and she was no famous person I promise, so you think those women got nothing done is crazy
@@izzydandrea7548 Completely inaccurate, that's just one of my examples, there's more where that came from, and she used to be the symbol of the 80s. Same applies to Jennifer Connelly in early 90s, no lifts, surgery etc whatsoever. Now name me one woman in this laughable generation that comes any close to their beauty naturally or unnaturally, never mind talents compared to past generations? Plastic surgery today is an epidemic amongst women whatever you like it or not, same with obesity, all scientifically proven. What's crazy is the fact that a girl/kid (such as yourself) with no life experience, who didn't grew up during those past generations is giving me (a man even) lectures about female beauty. Now having said that, even without surgery women today are inherently less attractive than what they used to be, same applies with young men of today, early millennials where the last generation that where inherently attractive. And not only in general appearance but women today have way less feminine attributes desired by men, they swagger like men to, cover themselves with tattoos and abnormal hair colors (major red flags to), never mind their ugly fashion of sneakers and baggy jeans etc, all major turn offs, go figure.
"The nose is the money-box of the face" is one of the wildest things I've heard in a while.

@@KallusGarnet That's not even true. Has Skeletor taught us nothing?
Physiognomy is still used as a term in modern Greek but mostly for expressing a positive or negative first impression. I would say it is very subjective and not by any means an accurate tool, most people use it more like a gut feeling if anything. Personally, I think reading expressions is far more interesting, both in cartoons and in real life, as it can provide a better reading of person's character and his intentions. You could compare it if you want to how important is the casting of an actor based on his facial features compared to his acting skills, in cartoons it is about character design and animation, meaning the default aesthetics of a character and how those athletics move and interact in a fictional environment. You can absolutely have characters that are designed with those positive physiognomica characteristics that you described but if their animation, or performance (if we are talking about actors) is unexpressive they will pretty soon become forgettable. Think about it, an excretion altimetry is a series of different faces that we make to reveal different aspects of ourselves, you could say that by changing your expression you change your face to become a different person. This could also be contradictory as an innocent face can express malice but then it stops being innocent and becomes unnerving, a serious face can express tenderness and becomes more open and vulnerable. ext.
Zendaya and Anya are too old to be Zoomers, they’re young millennials. Halle and Rachel are Gen Z though.
In the US, Most internet sources site milenials being born from 1980 to 1995, which makes both zendaya and anaya gen z whom were born in 1996 and 1997, respectively. Gen z are born from 1996 to 2010 with some sources citing the cut off as 2012. Every generation is approximately 20 years with some being longer or shorter depending on geopolitical events (if you remember DARE education or where you were on 9/11, you're a millennial) or advancements in technology (if you remember dial up internet or didn't have a smart phone until late teens and early 20s, you're a millennial)
On the longer side of generations, the greatest generation were born from 1901 to 1927. This generation spanned longer than 20 years due to the 1st world war and stunted production in many countries which pivoted any advancement in technology toward winning the war.
Middle ground: 'Cuspers'--Because generations are as much defined by age/birth year as they are by the way geopolitical events effect society, the generational cut offs are not as fixed as people think them to be... which gives rise to what are called 'cuspers' (Anya and Zendaya), those who are born on the cusp of the cut off and can essentially choose to identify as Gen Z or millennial. Whether or not they identify as gen z or millennial would then depend on the political events they were effected by and/or if they have majority millennial sibling set versus a gen z sibling set (because their siblings would influence which media and pop culture they consume which also have generational differences that are not very apparent in older gen z but are very apparent with younger gen z)
Like for references
@@joe395r lol “greatest generation”
Most people say that Gen Z starts at 1996, so they can be considered Gen Z, just right at the cusp of Gen Z and millennial. I have seen sometimes that people will differentiate the people at the cusp of generations and give them their own label (example: Generation Jones being made up of late boomers and early Gen X), so maybe there can be another label for those at the cusp of Gen Z and millennial. I've seen Zillenial float around.
The generational lines are not consistent across studies. They’re made up anyway. A 29 year old American millennial who grew up upper income in a city probably has more in common with a 26 year old of the same background than with the average 32 year old.
@LiorGrian it is true that generational lines are not fixed across studies, but they are consistent based on geopolitical events,technology, and many other factors like economics. It may seem as though the 26 year old and the 32 year old from the same economic background have more in common at first glance than the average 32 year old due to shared socioeconomic factors but the 26 year old will not remember flying on a plane before TSA, they would have barely been conscious for the 2008 recession that both 32 year olds were present for, watching their friends and family lose their homes, graduating into a flailing job market with no way to pay our massive student loans.... Those are the kind of lines that define generations, and while shared economics and backgrounds are also factors, the size of their effect is much smaller than all the other events mentioned that define the outlook of a generation (for the most part).
Middle ground: Each generation has subgroups due to the long span of generations, so you could be pointing out a potential subgroup
Andrew Tate should forever be introduced as a subject matter in person the way you did it
The wide set eyes are a result of good amounts of folic acid in the mother at least 3 mths before getting pregnant. It's a sign of good health and development imo. Cool that you mention and inform us about FAS Edit: it's wrong to harrass Ms Zegler. But she should have been protected better by the studio and have received more media training. It's not professionally sound what happened there.
Where did you hear that about folic acid? I tried to look it up, but couldn't find anything about folic acid causing wide set eyes. The only relation I found said the opposite, in fact.
Supposedly folic acid DURING pregnancy can help prevent embryo developmental defects, such as facial bones fusing too soon, which can cause hypertelorism (wide set eyes). As for before pregnancy, I couldn't find anything at all
@@lindenbree9188 firstly vit d, magnesium and vit b12 help and prevent so many issues from sleep problems to asthma and eczema and depression and anxiety. Fermented foods are a massive weapon against depression. About this you will find if you look. Yet they are not a staple in people's lives right. Information takes time to reach the surface if no one decided to pick this as a subject to study and make a scientific report ofc you will find nothing. The source is Dutch people. When you visit the Netherlands you will notice many beautiful people across all ethnicities. When you visit Belgium next to it, you will notice less of that. When there is lack of folic acid you get things like the split upperlip. And sadly w my own children one of them was an unexpected pregnancy and I am a very small person. So due to not taking the folic acid timely, 3 mths before getting pregnant he looks quite different from the other two children: closer set eyes, and cognitively performs less than the other two who both excel at math. Which is not a big deal to me as he is great w his hands and has many ideas about everything. So he excels other forms of intelligence. Anf even if he did not he is welcome, loved and cherished. And what you mention is overly wide set eyes. That will indeed draw attention but because of slightly being unbalanced. An aspiring parent can use this or choose not to. But not sharing would be wrong right.
@@lindenbree9188 i second this, not really much to add other than ive literally never heard of folic acid causing hypertelorism before this comment
Wide set eyes can also actually be a distinct sign of fetal alcohol syndrome (a mother drinking when pregnant). This is what the internet says "One of the most distinctive and consistent signs of FAS is found in the eyelids. Affected children often appear to have widely spaced eyes."

Gen Z is ugly? REALLY? Do people not have eyes? I know us millennials are aging better (so “they” say), but what on earth makes Gen Z ugly?
I think is what she said in the video, good memories of their past or photos in the past were a big deal so they looked their best for them. But nowadays, Gen Z overshares their not pretty parts because of the internet.
Lack of information basically
Nothing. That's the point
@@sub.sa.3058 I think the issue of “why do Disney princesses all have eyes too far apart” come down to fashion of the times. Also, big expressive eyes are important for film acting. Like this is some big mystery.
@@samiam2088 how can "eyes too far apart" come down to fashion of the times if it persisted from the 1930s to the present? The "times" have changed at least 4 times since then yet this characteristic survived.
Big expressive eyes are important for film acting, but they're also prevalent in cartoons, particularly anime. The reason being that large eyes infantilizes the character, associating them with innocence and goodness. It's why villains, in cartoons, rarely, if ever, have large, round eyes.
To expand on sub.as.3058, I think the reason people think Gen Z look ugly is because they're the most exposed and documented generation on Earth.
Back then young people mostly took photo during special occasion and vacation where not only they looked the best but had to prepare themselves because getting photos developed was a process. There was also a mindset of "I want this picture to look nice so we can look back at it in the distant future, to reminisce the our past in material form." While these days photos don't really mean much outside of commercials and branding use, our phones can catch 100s high definition pics/vids in a sec and store it instantly.
Another point is that in the distant past media training was extremely important for celebrities and wealthy people, because there were so little access to them that they can control the narrative and perception of their character by selectively choosing what goes to the public and what stays private. Gen Z and even Millennials to an extent broke that mold.

these kind of comments stem from multiple things, such as certain groups' idea of being superior to another.
If these were men of colour playing traditionally white characters, people probably would have less to say, since women are more criticised for whatever they do in general. if people (jobless incels) on twitter can call Margot Robbie, a woman who fits the eurocentric beauty standard very well, mid, then you know people are just hating because its a woman.
And the concept of beauty keeps evolving, just like how different body types and facial features have been in an out of trend for centuries, with the last century having a different ideal body for each decade. a beauty standard changed in 10 years!
People also need to realise that beauty standards are different around the world, and that even among that, beauty is subjective. For example, skin bleaching and lightening in extremely popular in east, sea, and south asian cultures, since it represents a higher social status. however, in western countries, skin tanning is the norm.
I once read about how someone had a straight nose, but in their country, a button nose was much preferred and they almost got surgery to change their nose. but once they went to south korea, everyone complimented them on their beautiful nose, since the beauty standard there is to have a straight nose with high nose bridge.
Edit: and this ofc could also be because generations always have a dislike for generations before or after them.
New generations have more unrealistic expectations. I think new generations are getting more and more superficial probably because of the advancements of social media. But they are also more unrealistic, like looking to appear a certain way that is not practical or real at all... or too attached too empty images, theories and words instead of focusing on reality itself, or what they really need. It started with my generation (I was born in 1990), I felt it, however, now its much worse... People have even less social skills nowadays... I attended University in London recently which confirmed what I think... I don't think young people now are unattractive, they do however, feel that way, no matter how good they look...it is just never enough good for them. Once again unrealistic expectations..
so those 4 models represent the entirety of gen z??
Can we talk about the fashion too bruh. Why is homelessness a style 😭😭😭
Everyone in the thumbnail is mixed race. Many mixed race people get wide set eyes from their nonwhite side. This looks normal on asian, black, hispanic etc people because the corners of their eyes line up with the corners of their nostrils. But if someone is mixed with a race that has a narrower nose, the distance between the eyes looks exaggerated

On niceness vs kindness- gen z might very well be less nice, but they are far more kind. I'd rather have kind people (honest, caring about equity, acceptance, open mindedness, being real) than nice people (polite for conflict avoidance sake, disingenuous, professionalism for respectability politics sake, keeping the peace for appearances without being honest and real)

Tbh I do agree that today's generation doesn't have well develop facial bones regardless of race. I am brown and I have an average jawline and cheek bones. My parents and grandparents on the other hand have a very well developed Mandible, maxilla and cheek bones. Qoves was right. I don't live in a western country either. The beauty standard here are very different but I have noticed from old pics of my parent's generation that they were actually looking very mature. I blame our lifestyle rather than "beauty standards". Sure, in a white majority country other races might be unfairly judged. But I do agree that the current generation looks very immature regardlessof the race. And its all thanks to our food habits.
Edit: i do have to point out that the beauty stansards here are very different to west. A big nose isn't really clowned upon. And jawline and cheekbones imo are universally found attractive. Every person has an ability to develop a proper jawline. It's our habits and food that makes it underdeveloped and has nothing to do with "superior genes™️."
thank you for this comment
As a millennial, we didn't pay attention to jawlines like the younger generations do. I think we cared more about our weight. I see you're not from a western country, so I'm not sure how the generational "break down" (baby boomer, gen x, millennial, etc) applies to people from non-western countries. I think it's a trend taken more seriously particularly by Gen Z, therefore attractiveness focuses even more on bone structure.
@@Anya-jk2dyAgreed. Us Millennials were 100% more focused on maintaining a healthy weight rather than paying attention to individual features on our faces. Our fashions of low raise jeans,crop tops and backless tops emphasised that also.
Gen Z could be perceived as less attractive because of a few things:
•less emphasis on traditional beauty, but there is emphasis on aesthetic and beauty nonetheless, just not what people have in mind usually
•we speak our mind and have often very challenging thoughts and older gens ( older than millennial ) hate it
• fashion sense is weird to other gens
• perceived to be brain dead, lazy, useless, addicted to phones, bratty, entitled
It's kind of messed up how older generations criticize us for being insecure over our looks and obsessed with looking perfect, complaining that we're "growing up too fast", and yet they make comments about how we're apparently uglier than them, even when many of us are still teenagers. Yeah, I really wonder why so many of us are so insecure and obsessed with our looks...
Then you also have people saying the opposite about us, saying that we're "better looking" or "sexier" to use it against us, saying, "Oh, it's because they had better lives than us." or, "It's because they are more vain and therefore take care of themselves more." These people need to make up their minds.
Please. They just want to say whatever will put us down. This isn't about facts. This is about them finding more and more ways to bully young people to lift themselves up.
FUN FACT : After 6 months in the grave none of us look attractive 💀Live yo life
Very few of the women at 1:29 are conventionally attractive, even by 1950s standards. It's just that women made an effort to dress and keep themselves up back in the day. People owned fewer clothes, but they were of quality. You looked nice even if going grocery shopping. People are just slobs today
And they spoke and acted with class, compare any older interviews with what was at that time
the younger generation and you could just cringe when comparing them to now.
They can't even answer basic questions on Mathematics, Geography, History etc.
I always thought that the disney princeses had strange looking eyes. Not what you would see in an ordinary person, beautiful or not. But then, they were always cartoons, not real people. I don't believe that most people are beautiful. Most people are ordinary looking but what makes a person seem beautiful is a good personality.
best take ive seen so far in this comment section
Can’t people be pretty in their own way? Those actresses are pretty. And so is that girl in the drive through. I do agree people looked very different than today and sometimes I see people with vintage or retro faces.
3:26 That's exactly the "problem". The internet is anti-normal. Everything is about being pretty or being "lol so random" or having "rizz" or having some made-up gender/sexuality or being a moral busybody or virtue signaling. You get the idea. You have to be special somehow: you can't just BE
Happy Holidays Z 💗. This is sensitive time for a lot of people, so I hope all of you getting by the best you can. Sending my love.
Many people may prefer the "some random cashier" looking person (who is still seen as more attractive than the average), as they might be seen as more relatable.
Wasn't there some group in Germany in the 1930-40s that was really into phrenology and eugenics...
20+ years ago, people said Britney was also a FAS baby. The discourse of the time really emphasized her "low class" roots.
Oof
I actually think wide set eyes or space between the eyes makes people so much more attractive.
There's nothing wrong with Halle or Rachel's appearance. Rachel comes off as a mean girl in interviews and on twitter, which is why I don't like her. But she's very pretty.
idk what generation you are but you are unequivocally beautiful in and out. i love your eyes sm ahhh
I started laughing when you said internet weirdos were claiming wide set eyes were the result of "fetal alcohol syndrome" but I laughed even harder when I tried typing that into a search engine. The first attempt was "fecal" alcohol syndrome, the second attempt was "feral" alcohol syndrome. Gawd. More coffee needed.
As a so called millennial I feel like whoever’s saying that about gen Z is super mean. I don’t get it, why are people saying that. Saying they look older is one thing, but another to nitpick their looks. I’m sure all Gen Zs are very adorable. My gosh this poor generation needs a break from caring about looks. We will all age, nobody cares.
I remember from a young age comparing myself to Disney princesses, and other cartoons where girls and women always where illustrated in the same way: Big and far set eyes with pronounced double eyelids, tall and rounded forehead, small mouth with big to medium lips, tiny nose, long and thick hair, giant head. And I remember I was sad that I didn’t really look like them, I looked more like the evil or the “ugly” characters with my big and long crooked nose, small, hooded, close and deep set eyes, broad mouth with thin lips, flat forehead, thin hair, small head. I had and still have the opposite of neotenous features. I have always related more to Quasimodo (❤) than to Ariel and Rapunzel. I'm still waiting for the day Disney makes an "ugly" princess or heroine.
Don't let it bring you down. There are millions who look closer to how you look than those pictures! If someone falls in love with your character or your actions they will find your face charming regardless of how your natural face looks.
gorl same
Most women in the world don't have neotenous features. Or only have one feature that is neotenous, and the rest are not. If we step outside and look at real people, as well as searching online pictures of real people in various countries, we can see that majority of women have non-neotenous features.
*were
Weird to me to hear that people think wide set eyes are unattractive. I think they’re super attractive and ethereal. It gives that like lifted model look
Hey! I'm glad you enjoyed Portugal and are learning the language! Keep in mind though, Babbel offers Brazilian portuguese, which has some differences from European Portuguese, so you might have a couple of misunderstandings when talking to a native Portuguese person. Nevertheless I'd say most people in Portugal are very nice and welcoming (as you've probably already realised when you went there 😄) and will try to help in case of need so you should be fine getting your point across.
Tarrot cards, palm reading, face reading, phrenology, astrology, and every major religion, are all grounded in superstition and magical thinking. These are highly flawed ways to interpret reality but the human brain is unique suspectible to this due to a by-product of our intelligence - imagination.
Yes, imagination can drive human progress and innovation, but it can also lead to horrific tragedies like genocide and widespread discrimination. We can both imagine the best and the worst, and what we imagine is driven by our feelings.
Gen X was peak cute ladies.
