Hhmm...only God know the names of angels around Him when He was creating woman.

These sect of human are very strange in everything but very unique in everything.

If you are lucky to have a good one in your life your heaven is sure but if you are unlucky to get hooked up with toxic one your hell fire will be from this world to the real hell fire in Lucifer custody because you will be burning already here on Earth before going to the real hell wherever it is.

Explorers:
During the Japanese Edo period, blackened teeth were popular amongst aristocrats and married women.

Blackened teeth were considered a sign of beauty and the practice helped preserve teeth into old age.

In 1870, this practice was banned by the Japanese government.

Blackening teeth wasn't just popular in Japan, and some people still practice this today.
Is that what the gworo chopping people from the a region here are practicing

Impressive.
From the days of Adam, women has been doing incredible and unbelievable things to look beautiful.

All that is done for the sole aim of seeking for men's approval and love.

Respect to women.
I don't think so. Not because of men

A Dimple Machine from the 1930s.

In 1936, Isabella Gilbert invented the Dimple-Maker.

The machine consisted of a spring that fit around the face and two tiny knobs that pressed into the cheeks.

“He” made us and yet they recreated us, re-modified still created defaults in us lololol.


Our defaults our norms now

It’s sad blacks still don’t understand how experimental life is.


Let’s just key to our passion and what a human is

In the middle ages the forehead was considered the most beautiful part of the woman's face.

Many women removed their eyelashes to accentuate their foreheads.

They also plucked their hairlines and eyebrows to achieve a long and oval face.


But I had thought the skull is the face of a human and thats the beauty so how does the outer skin and the features on the skin change the skull shape ??

I stand to be corrected

Thanks

No disrespect

I am passionate about knowing
