As influências nos padrões de beleza feminina através da história : revisão narrativa da literatura.

Abstract

The idealization of female beauty in contemporary societies is something constant, fueled by the media, which also influences interpersonal relationships. The reference to the beautiful is constantly present in human history, but not in an immutable way. This theme crosses several areas such as History, Aesthetics, Sociology and Anthropology, which seek, over the ages, to understand what led societies to establish standards – some quite peculiar – of beauty. The objective of this research is to understand how the concept of female beauty has evolved over time and what factors have influenced the choices of what is considered beautiful and attractive. To this end, the systematic review method will be used, using descriptors in line with the DECS – Health Sciences Descriptors. The terms chosen were: Beauty; aesthetics; Story; Physical appearance; Culture of Beauty. To achieve specific and more relevant results, the Boolean operators and and or were used. The databases used were: SciELO, PUBMED, CAPES, BIREME and National Library of Medicine. Works will be selected between August 2022, applying inclusion/exclusion criteria and data analysis. As an expected result, it is estimated to understand whether the media exerts massive power over the choice of what is attractive or not, impacting even the affective relationships of individual.
