Pretty vs. Beautiful

Pretty is an adjective often used to describe people like Gisele Bundchen, Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks but, not everyone looks like Gisele, Heidi or Tyra – no matter how much they want to. According to today’s media if a woman does not fit the ‘pretty criteria’ then you don’t fit in anywhere.

The ‘pretty criteria’ – is a list of attributes that a girl must possess in order to be considered pretty. The pretty criteria is as follows:

  • Blond hair
  • Blue eyes
  • Weighs between a 120-140 lbs (48-56 kgs)
  • Legs up to the ceiling

 What is difference between pretty and beautiful? Pretty is the appearance of your physical body and beautiful is loving your appearance while still acknowledging your physical imperfections and so  even though I don’t posses even one of the attributes on the ‘pretty criteria’ I still consider myself beautiful because I love the way I look in spite of my imperfections.
