Understanding the self
1.Define the Physical Aspect of Self
Physical aspect of the self, from the word itself physical. It is our physical existence, it includes the shape of our body, the color of our hair, the roundness of our eyes, etc. In the song “Reflection” It’s being asked in that song “who is that person I see staring straight back at me” it is referring to our reflections in mirror. Sometimes we are having insecurities because we think we are not beautiful. This aspect is the aspect of ideal self and real self. Sometimes we describe our self not beautiful, but we have an anonymous description that we are beautiful.
- How culture shapes the notion of beauty and how it affects the self
Not everyone has a same perspective for beauty, but everyone can be beautiful. For example, Foot binding in China is beauty, the smaller the feet the more beautiful are women there. Another one is in Myanmar, the longer neck the more beautiful. We cant question because it is their culture, to boost their self-esteem, they made their own perspective of becoming beautiful.
