You know what? No. No, I do not think that girl is as beautiful as the woman on the right. And before you social justice bloggers come stampeding into my askbox, wondering how I could be such a heartless, bitch- hear me out.
The girl on the left isn’t beautiful. The girl on the left does not have flawless skin, or blonde hair, or baby-blue eyes or a pair of double-d’s. What she is, however, is sick. And telling her that she’s beautiful as an attempt to comfort her? Is just plain cruel.
You’re telling her that she’s only redeemable when she’s beautiful. You don’t give a damn about her illness, no. You just want to sleep at night, thinking what a great person you are for lying to a little girl. Do you think that girl believes she is truly, in the eyes of society, beautiful? She doesn’t. And I dare someone to look me in the eyes and say she’s wrong. We all know she’s not beautiful, but we tell her otherwise, tell ourselves otherwise because we feel guilty and we think that, by “saving” this poor, ill child with false claims of beauty, we are better people because of it.
That girl is beautiful because she is fighting. She’s beautiful because she isn’t beautiful, not in all the physical ways we obsess over. She’s beautiful because of her personality- and that is why her’s is a life worth living.
Not because some stranger on the internet lied, and told her she’s “beautiful”.
I never knew how to put the way I felt about these “beautiful” posts into words until now, just bravo.

Found both finally :))
the no-makeup one is so much prettier
i’m so obsessed with this photo
No matter what, her natural beauty is better. This gives people an idea of how photoshop can change a persons beauty in a matter of clicks. Look at her patchy skin suddenly turn flawlessly smooth and clear, and her eye colour and her lip colour difference. It gives people an idea of make up too, imagine the amount of make up the make up artists used.
I admit this is a very good photo. But her natural beauty is so much better.
the photo on the right is hella creepy
