New definition of Beauty
Introduction: Women in today’s society are influenced by various avenues, like advertisement, TV commercials and magazines.

So far I have no idea what conclusion I want to make, but probably I'll change my topic again. Coz I'm still interested in linguistics. And my previous topic is "Is it contradictory to study English and Japanese at the same time?" This is a research for myself. HAHA
