The Value of Beauty- A Group Discussion
March 13, 2020 @ 6:15 pm - 8:00 pm
On Friday, March 13, 2020, 6:15 – 8:00 pm, our group discussion topic will be the value of beauty. What makes something or someone beautiful? Is beauty universal? What is the opposite of beauty? Does society, norms and culture influence what we see as beautiful? If so, how does that happen? And why? Are you beautiful? What does The Distinctions document tell us about individual beauty? And, does that matter? Is beauty in the eye of the beholder? And what does that really mean anyway? How often do you think about beauty? Is it wrong to tell a stranger that they are beautiful? Awkward possibly; but is it wrong? Do you tell those that are in your life that they are beautiful? Why? Why not? Do we need to hear that we are beautiful? Is it wrong to not be attracted to that which is not beautiful? Does that set some apart while setting others on a pedestal? How has beauty affected your life? Is it possible to be mistaken about beauty? Like, do you change your mind when you get to know someone? Research is showing that we are wired to think our mates and partners are beautiful as we age. Do you concur with these findings? Why are kids perceived as being beautiful? Does it affect their survival and their prospering? Are you affected by other’s opinions of beauty? What questions do you have?
