In ancient Greece, those with eyebrows that joined in the middle — in a so-called “unibrow” — were considered more symmetrical, and therefore more beautiful. Those who did not already have a unibrow were known to use kohl, or black shadow-like eyeliner, to fill in the space between their eyebrows.“ Salma Hayek as Mexican painter Frida Kahlo Quote “ In ancient Greece, a corpulent behind, on both men and women, was prized. The famed Aphrodite Kallipygos, literally translating to “Aphrodite of the beautiful buttocks,” shows the goddess (although some argue it could be a mortal woman) showing off her rounded behind.” “While today women focus mainly on the buttocks and chest, and hope that there is very little to be found anywhere else, ancient Greeks preferred curvaceous women with bellies and a nipped waist.” “Until very recently, having extra fat was considered extremely attractive on a woman, as it served as an indication of her class. Women who were thin were likely slaves or laborers who engaged in physical labor all day and could not afford to eat sufficiently.“ https://greekreporter.com/2021/06/24/ancient-greek-beauty-standards-beautiful-greece/ Edited January 28 by guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
