In many of the novels we've read this semester, we talk about stereotypes. Some issues we have discussed deal with gender, ethnicity, and religion. One issue that is not generally brought up is looks. Do we make presumptions about people that are not our society's ideal beauty type? Check this link out:
Did you think that such a majestic voice was going to come out of this "non-traditional" looking woman? Who am I to say that Susan Boyle is not beautiful? What makes someone beautiful anyway? I don't think it was right when the one judge said that "before you began, everyone was laughing at you." Would they have said that if she was better looking?
What do YOU think?
