Defining Beauty

Complete the sentence below.

1. For me, Beauty means

▪ A beautiful person is not only attractive on the outside, but also on the inside, in terms of
their attitude. The way you treat and respect others reveals your true attractiveness.

2. A beautiful person is
▪ A beautiful person has a decent heart; indeed, you may judge a person's beauty by their
physical appearance, but the true essence of beauty is revealed via the heart and
personality. The inside of a person, how you treat people, and having good manners all
contribute to their beauty.

3. I am beautiful
▪ I'm gorgeous because I'm one of God's most beautiful creatures. I am not as attractive
as others, particularly those who are older than me. Every everyone has their own
unique beauty, but what good is beauty if you don't have excellent manners? A person
with a positive attitude and decent manners is more attractive than someone who is
merely attractive on the outside.

4. List down the names of people you know who are beautiful
Nory Dindo – my mom Norma Bolivar- my grandma
Fatima Sta. Ana – my bestfriend Kyliemie Claire Cabias
Kyla Villafranca Ferline Ruelo
Elaine Taniegra Munirah Sagun
Harline Umali Jessele Brazan

Analysis
1. When do we usually observe the changes listed above for males and females?

▪ We normally notice the changes described above throughout our puberty stage, when
guys show a variety of changes, including a lower voice, a growing pubic, a growing
penis, and a more muscular body. Pubic hair causes the breasts to enlarge, the hips to
widen, the uterus and vagina to expand, and menstruation to occur in girls.

2. Were you able to experience the same changes? When?

▪ My breasts began to develop in size, pubic hair began to sprout and extend to my hip,
and I began to menstruate at the same time as my peers.

3. If you were not able to experience the above listed changes, what might have caused such
difference?

▪ If I am unable to experience the above-mentioned changes, I may have a physical

defect that affects my body's changes, or I may be experiencing delayed changes that I
must encounter during my puberty period.

4. How does the society shape the sexual behavior of an individual?

▪ Through participation in any group connected to sexual orientation, society shapes an

individual's sexual behavior. Family planning, the distribution of condoms to students at
all schools and colleges, and, most importantly, the movies that they view that are not
suited for children, including scenes of sexual activity, are all examples of this.

5. Can we really change our natural or innate sexual organ and sexual response

▪ Yes, transgender plants affect our natural or innate sexual organ and sexual reaction.
Most gays, not only in the Philippines but around the world, choose for surgery to alter
their sexual organs. The truth is that just because you've changed everything doesn't
mean you'll be a true woman. Yes, you'll appear like a real lady, but you're still a male in
God's eyes, a man created to be coupled with a woman. God only made a man and a
woman; it was a major sin for you to be able to alter his creation; you must be content
with what God provides.
