While Russian women are smoothing wrinkles and desperately trying to lose weight, in other countries girls are proud of their curvaceous forms and dream of … bags under their eyes.
It turns out that the notorious standards of beauty are not the same for the whole world and that what seems beautiful to us can repel foreigners. Rambler decided to recall what external "shortcomings" are idolized abroad.
Crooked legs
When you're in Japan in the summer, pay attention to the shape of women's legs. Most likely you will be surprised that the bulk of Japanese women have crooked legs. And they are not at all worried about the occasion, because in their country it is considered attractive. Researchers agree that it is all to blame for landing in the seiza pose, which all Japanese women used to try to master. To do this, they put their shins on the floor, turned their feet and toes upward, and placed their buttocks on the heels. The girls spent several hours in a row every day in this position, which inevitably made their legs crooked.
Bags under the eyes
While some women are buying up tons of eye patches in the hope of getting rid of bags under their eyes, South Koreans are artificially creating them. Someone achieves swelling thanks to makeup, and someone does go under the surgeon's knife. All this is done for the "joyful face effect". When we smile, slight swelling invariably appears under our eyes, and according to Korean women, if they are present on an ongoing basis, the face looks more joyful even in a calm state.
Completeness
It would seem that there are no women who have not dreamed at least once of model parameters 90-60-90. However, this opinion is erroneous. For example, in Mauritania, extra pounds indicate a lot of wealth and a high position in society. Therefore, those women who do not limit their diet and wear size L are much more likely to meet love in this country. It is no coincidence that the local girls have been fed fatty and floury foods since childhood.
