Introduction.
This research referred to the issue of female beauty
stereotypes, which can be defined as the prototype that
women must follow in order to be perfect and socially
accepted. The main characteristic of this issue is the
rejection that women have by society, mostly men, society
has been in charge of overshadowing and making women
feel that they are worthless because they are not "pretty ".
Beauty is one of the enigmas of universal thought.
However, given its complexity and subjective condition, it
has not been possible to specify what beauty is. The
project was limited to an approach to the idea of physical
beauty, this being the main point of interest.

This is a quite subjective issue, therefore not everyone
persists the beauty as raised by society, many women over
time have raised their voices and have shown how a
beautiful woman really is, many people took this as an
offense but there were also people who took it as
something necessary, since what is shown is an
untouchable perfection and people wanted something
more real.
The project investigates whether the ninth-grade female
students of the Dulce Corazon de Maria School follow or
feel influenced by these stereotypes. It was chosen to
work with the ninth grade because the girls in this grade
are between 13 and 15 years old, this is the average age in
stereotypes more seriously.
Materials and Methods.
The research was carried out through the method of
questionnaires, because with this the information was
better collected and the girls were able to answer each of
these questions with greater sincerity, since it was
something subjective, a very specific answer was needed
and the easiest way was that.
The population with which we worked is in the range of 13
and 15 years. This population was chosen since at this age
they begin to take into account everything that is
"instilled" in them from home. Five questionnaires were
designed in which they were asked about situations and
opinion and that it would serve us.
