BEAUTY — A BLESSING OR A CURSE?
by Bich Ngoc
Our work is to analyze the Pros and Cons of Beauty (also its Dangers and Benefits) in these situations:
1. Family Life:
- The effects of Beauty on the relationships between a beautiful woman and her husband, parents-in-law, and other family members.
- People may easily consider beautiful woman as potential Femme Fatale (hồ ly tinh). What is your opinion about this fact?
2. Love Life:
- What are the positive and negative effects of beauty on romantic relationships of a beautiful woman (i.e. the relationships between her and her lovers)?
- Some people believe that men are attracted first by external beauty. Given this fact, is it lucky if we have beauty?
- How do you think about this idea that “many plain but good guys may think that a beautiful woman is out of their league. The result is that only attractive Don Juans approach her, and her chance of marrying a good guy is low”?
3. School Life:
- Consider the relationship between a beautiful woman and her teachers, boy-friends, and girl-friends at school.
- How about her concentration on study and grade at school?
- How do people assess her success and failure? Is this public opinion reasonable and fair?
- Advantages and disadvantages when taking participation in extracurricular activities.
4. Work Life
- Consider the relation between a beautiful woman and her Boss/Supervisors, Colleagues, Subordinators, and Competitors.
- What is the role of beauty in workplace in general, and in business ladder in particular? In which situation it is an advantage? In which one it is not?
- Which position is suitable for Beauty? And which is not?
- Does she have any pressure at work, which comes from her beauty?
- How about people’s attitudes towards her success and failures? Is it fair for her?
