"There are beautiful women in the north, independent and peerless. One glance at the people of the city, and then the eyes of the people of the country. "A person's appearance is like the most direct business card, and the fastest way for us to remember a person in our interactions with others is through their appearance.
In the world, each person's appearance is unique, which also leads to the distinction between beauty and ugliness. With the progress of society, a person's appearance can not only distinguish beauty and ugliness, but also judge a person's personality traits through appearance.
Men are afraid of small mouths, and women are afraid of big noses. This phrase has been passed down to this day and has become an important consideration for many people when making friends or choosing a mate. So, what is the real meaning behind this statement?
Let's dive in. The origin of "men are afraid of small mouths" can be explained from two aspects. First of all, it's about the overall image.
Do you know? For girls, it is their dream to have a "cherry mouth", which is why they have such a name. However, for men, it is not good to have a cherry mouth.
In ancient times, people paid great attention to the distinction between masculinity and femininity, believing that men should be dominated by the image of "mighty and majestic", rather than being gentle and considerate like women.
Therefore, men with cherry mouths are crowned with feminine images, which is what we often call "sissies".
This notion is not unfounded, and we can find evidence in ancient texts that generals or samurai often had large mouths, while eunuchs or fathers-in-law often had small mouths. In addition, there is also a significant difference in pronunciation between a large mouth and a small mouth, with people with large mouths having rougher voices and people with small mouths having more delicate voices, which directly leads to the reason why people don't like "men's small mouths".
After all, in ancient times, it was common to admire the heroism that a man should have.
The second aspect is the issue of personality, and the ancient people generally believed that "a man's small mouth" meant mean and stingy. This view has its roots in the ancient science of physiognomy, which was highly valued in ancient times, and like the birth date, a person's physiognomy was believed to be an indication of the direction of future development.
In that era of metaphysics, people were convinced of the importance of physiognomy. Therefore, when talking about marriage, physiognomy has become an important consideration, and "men with small mouths" naturally do not have an advantage.
In ancient times, the mouth was seen as closely linked to eating, and it was widely believed that a large mouth meant eating more and a healthier body, while a small mouth was considered to be at a disadvantage.
Therefore,"Men are afraid of small mouths"It has become the standard in people's hearts. However, with the introduction of Hallyu thought, the current aesthetic has changed. Most of the popular celebrity idols in the market are cherry mouths, in contrast, the image of a warm man is more popular and is deeply loved by girls.
So, in modern society,"Men are afraid of small mouths"The standard no longer applies.
Nowadays, the aesthetic standards have changed, and men no longer only pursue solemnity and might, but are more inclined to be sunny and handsome. Under this trend, the small-mouthed man seems to have ushered in spring.
For women, they have always paid great attention to their appearance, whether it is an ancient concubine or a modern star, beautiful people can always get more attention.
Therefore, there is naturally a certain amount of attention to women's appearance. Small nose and small mouth have always been the standard for beauties, and women in ancient times pursued a delicate small face and cherry mouth, which was peerless.
Imagine that if you add a big nose, it must be the biggest regret. Because the nose is in the center of the facial features, if the nose is too large, it will make the facial features appear too dense and give an unnatural feeling.
The ancients naturally also had a deep understanding of this, and it can be seen from the descriptions of the four ancient beauties that they all had delicate and small noses and cherry mouths without exception, which gradually became the standard of women's beauty in ancient times.
Also, in face reading, a woman's nose size also has its specific meaning.
In ancient times, there was a common belief that women's noses would hinder their career development and were considered a sign of bad luck. Therefore, the size of the nose is an important consideration when a man chooses a mate.
In order to hide the flaws in their faces, women use various cosmetics such as rouge and gouache. Although they can't change their appearance, having a beautiful face may make their lives smoother.
After all, in ancient times, women relied more on their looks than men to gain social status, while men couldnnot.
In modern society, cosmetics can no longer satisfy women's desire for beauty. With the rapid development of plastic surgery technology, we can change our appearance through technology, and even "change faces", and for appearance problems such as large noses, it is not a problem.
However, should we place too much emphasis on the beauty of physical appearance? After all, "the skin of the body is the parent of the body", and our appearance is just as important as the inside.
Appearance is innate, and it is beyond human control. Although in the past, beautiful people were envied, but in modern society, inner beauty is true beauty. We should not judge a person's qualities by their physical appearance alone, but should go deep into their hearts to understand them.
This is the cornerstone of how we make friends and even choose a partner. When we look at the successful people in society, we will find that their wives are often not those beautiful women, but they have the qualities of hard-working, virtuous and virtuous.
Some people are attracted to a person's physical appearance, but this is only temporary. This attraction can only last if the souls of two people are attracted to each other. Therefore, when it comes to making friends and choosing a mate, we can't judge a person based on their appearance alone.
Ancient traditional ideas, such as "men are afraid of small mouths, women are afraid of big noses", are no longer applicable in modern society. In modern society, we should take a person's heart and character as the main consideration.
In the face of these folk sayings, we can only laugh at them, and we cannot take them as the truth. Everyone's aesthetic perception is unique, just like Shakespeare's Hamlet, there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people.
Some people like petite mouths, some people like big noses, but these can never be the criteria for evaluating a person, and the criteria for evaluating a person are always character, morality, and conscience.
