TED Topic: Why thinking you're ugly is bad for you
Original TED Talk: 12:02 minutes
Summary: 1:11 minutes (Should be 1-2 minutes)
- 10,000 people around the
world google ‘’am I ugly?’’ Or post videos asking if they’re ugly.
2-
They lower their standards
just to impress others and to force themselves to fit in the society.

If you weren’t thin enough your average grades are lower than
usual.
4-
The pressure of wanting to
lose weight fast causes damage on our physical health.

Family friends and
relationships along with media, teasing
, comparing the looks and bullying are also an influence.
7-
Work together to change the
way we see ourselves.
Around 10,000 people in the world Google or YouTube ‘’Am I
ugly?’’ and it is because people around them in the society tell them that they’re
ugly even though their parents call them beautiful. Boys and girls lower their
standards just to impress others and to force themselves into a hole they will
never get out of easily just to fit into the society.
Moreover, weight is also a reason for the people to have
lower grades because they are worried about how they look more than their
studies and it is because of the people around them. They try to lose weight
fast by doing surgeries or other ways just to feel good about them regardless
of how that might cause some problems in the future.
They need to focus on educating to gain confidence and work
as a team and try to prove themselves without taking any risks and show that
they can fit in despite what people can say. Family and friends have a big
influence on how the child will grow as well as school which recently has got
many teasing and bullying going on which makes them feel unconfident and start
skipping school and then dropping out.
