ALI

ali pa: Kdo ali kaj mu daje to moč?

Mi.

Ker jim dovolimo.

Ker jih prenašamo.

Ker se jim ne upremo.

A few days ago, a photograph of American model Kendall Jenner in a bathing suit went viral, showing what for many is the perfect body in a woman. Right, a photograph of Alyssa Carson, the 19-year-old astronaut who became the youngest person in history to pass all NASA aerospace tests.

You can probably realize which of the two is better known and admired globally, yet this situation shows us the disproportionate value that society places on exaggerated stereotypes of beauty. While many women struggle every day to belong to historically male-dominated positions and professions, society continues to reward vanity and beauty over real abilities and intellect.

I am the first person to appreciate the female form, but if we are to put this asthenic above incredibly talented, dedicated and skilled individuals like Alyssa Carson, I think that would not only be ignorant, but extremely damaging to the evaluation and progress of the human race.

To ni "A few days ago", staro je že nekaj let.

Aktualno je pa še vedno.
