Body beauty X body health

What is more important – being physically attractive or having a healthy body? If you ask this question to young people at a shopping mall, you will have many different opinions. A good answer however, would be a happy medium between the two. It is important to take care of your physical appearance by dressing in a manner in which you feel good about yourself. Girls usually get manicures, pedicures, facials, wax, etc. Even boys today are following this trend. Silicone, Botox and plastic surgery are becoming more and more popular. This is a personal decision as it deals with one’s self-esteem. Body health is also important to keep in mind. Maintaining a healthy weight contributes to both a healthy body and mind. It is possible to have both, just decide what is important to your happiness and self-esteem.
