Why are women so pressured into becoming this "beautiful" icon for society?
The media is the main reason for women being demoralized as sex icons for the male population to look at. Why is it that we work so hard to be accepted; we go through so much to look a certain way society wants us to. Men also have this problem. Why is the world a huge "beauty pageant"?

I'm sick and tired of watching lots of women get plastic surgeries even though they still look beautiful without any artificial changes. The world's been losing its own beauty.
Pursuing attractivenes in her own way is fine.
But trying to be sexy icons just like pop stars or models is an obsession.
The desire to reproduce isn't the main reason why women are unconsciously forced to be "beautiful icons".
Some women are just too obsessed with being smokin' or having certain shape.
It's distorted slightly, and fundamentally.
"You're insecure
Don't know what for
You're turning heads when you walk through the door
Don't need make up to cover up
Being the way that you are is enough
Everyone else in the room can see it
Everyone else but you-ou-ou
Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelme
But when you smile at the ground, it ain't hard to tell
You don't know (oh oh)
You don't know you're beautiful
If only you saw what I can see
You'll understand why I want you so desperately
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe
You don't know (oh oh)
You don't know you're beautiful (Oh oh)
That's what makes you beautiful!
......................................."
