I once read an article that said, nowadays②nowadays 英 ['naʊədeɪz] 美 ['naʊədez]adv. 现今；时下n. 当今, some women wouldn't let their boyfriends see their real face.

Part of the reason they behave this way is people impose③impose 英 [ɪm'pəʊz] 美 [ɪm'poz]vi. 利用；欺骗；施加影响vt. 强加；征税；以……欺骗stereotyped④stereotyped 英 ['sterɪətaɪpt] 美 ['stɪərɪotaɪpt]adj. 用铅版印刷的；老一套的v. 把……浇铸成铅版；使成为陈规（stereotyp的过去分词）ideas about beauty on them. The other part of the reason is they are not confident enough about themselves.

So, instead of asking men to answer this question,women should bear in mind that the scope of beauty is getting broader and broader. Only when they really appreciate⑤appreciate 英 [ə'priːʃɪeɪt; -sɪ-] 美 [ə'priʃɪet]vt. 欣赏；感激；领会；鉴别vi. 增值；涨价their own beauty, will they become more conf i dent⑥con fi dent 英 ['kɒnfɪd(ə)nt] 美 ['kɑnfɪdənt]adj. 自信的；确信的.

Don't label yourself a certain kind of woman. Be the woman that gets to decide who you are and how you should look. Being different is beautiful; being conf i dent is beautiful;being real is beautiful.

“如果你不得不做出选择，你会选择身材好还是颜值高的女人？”这是一个老生常谈的问题，每个女人都想这样问她们的男友。

我曾经读过的一篇文章称，现今一些女性不会让她们的男友看到自己的素颜。

她们之所以会这样做，部分原因是人们会将关于美丽的刻板印象强加在她们身上。而另一部分原因则是女性对自己不够自信。

因此，女人们不应该叫男人回答这个问题，而是要在心里谨记，美丽的范围正变得越来越广。只有当女人真正懂得欣赏自己的美丽之后，她们才会变得更加自信。

时尚杂志《VOGUE》第一个大码超模阿什利·格雷厄姆有一句名言：“当我意识到不会委屈自己缩进这个社会想让我适应的狭窄模具时，我就感觉到了自由。”

我们并不想在街上看到虽然很美、却像同一个流水线生产出来的产品一样的脸庞。

不要给自己贴上是某种女人的标签。你应该成为那种自己决定自己是谁、自己决定自己是什么样子的女人。与众不同就是美、充满自信就是美、真实不虚就是美！
