I think the so called "normal" beauty that most people like here in the west is partly a prodyct of the fashion industry that has corrupted our vision and made it more difficult to discern and appreciate real, natural beauty.

Also old stereotypes about the "primitive" or about so called "naked savages" clouds our appreciation and hinder us to see the true beauty of these peoples that in many ways live a more natural and truly human life than what we do.

Definitely.. the ironic part is that even then, nobody is encouraged to feel good about themselves, they're only ever encouraged to buy more...

Yeah... far too many stereotypes about indigenous peoples
Made by people who can't appreciate what everyone has in common and that we should accept people for who they feel they are, not who other people want them to be
