Taming The Beasts

Come to think of it, the movies have depicted the ugly as the underdog, meek and ultimate temple of kindness. Whereas the pretty one is stereotyped as an airhead, with the tendency to persecute those not of her kind.

This may be true for a few but I noticed, most nasty people look the part. Their ugly characters manifest in their physical appearances. These people have issues stemming from childhood who allowed their insecurities get the better of them. They are wrapped with negative perceptions of life that they think the world owes them what they lack. Instead of striving to be better, they derive satisfaction from putting other people down. That way, they feel they are somehow superior.

In all fairness, the pretty airheads do exist. They got too preoccupied with their beauty that they forgot to develop other substantial aspects in their lives. They think the world revolves around them and that they carry a license to bitch. While they are admired for their appearances, they have unresolved personal issues and struggles which their looks cannot compensate. We have a bunch of actresses as sample cases.

Bottom line is, personal issues not handled well may result to life-long personality scars that can hurt relationships and become a societal concern. Unfortunately, we cannot exorcise the demons lurking in their pathologic personalities. We can only hope that in time, they will see things on a more positive note and give rest to their bullying tendencies.

Moral lesson: if you look and act like a beast, you probably are. If you're a beauty who acts like a beast, you're a beautiful beast but a beast, nonetheless.

Don't mind me. Just rambling.
