Beauty: value of women

Abstract

This academic paper aims to present the beauty that is the value of women, it is found that the women's beauty is a symbol of perfection that motivates the satisfaction of the viewer and uses the criteria to judge women's beauty as follows: 1) the idealism judges women's beauty through a subjective mental process of judgment based on individual feelings 2) the materialism judges the beauty of women through objective methods by adhering to international standards of beauty that have been established in that era such as the five feminine charms, etc; and 3) the relativismargues that beauty is not an aesthetic feeling that occurs directly to the perceiver and it is not a feature of the appearance that looks like an absolute thing, but beauty is the ability of the intrinsic qualities of an object to instill instinctive value to the perceiver and beauty is not something that has value in itself, but in relation to the feelings of the perceiver. In Buddhism, there are two types of women's beauty: 1) external beauty is the beauty that arises from the shape of the body that is defined as the five attributes of a beautiful woman and 2) inner beauty is the beauty that cannot be felt because it is abstract, but can be expressed in a tangible form through good conduct in act and good conduct in word, etc.
