Beauty finding in the United States

I gradually finding some of traditions in the Unites States as I defined it as beauty for which the definition that attract me searching on the beauty in Western culture.

After finding character of a person can be wonderful quality as a definition to oneself, I found......

Personal hygiene is not necessarily be part of fashion that require people spent tons of money for self-satisfaction, showing off in public, or pleasing others. It can be defined as respect to oneself or to others. This subject will attract my attention is due to Chinese traditionally did not encourage people to be neat and pay attention to taking care of appearance; instead, whom ever pay attention to take care of their appearance will be accused as moron or working in special field that need to using their appearance to allure any of customers.

Some of elders even think attractive neat looking will bring bad luck to a person which means attractive appearance has high chance to attract unwanted attention from gangsters or low levels of people to bring trouble to one's life. Therefore, some old people even intentionally having their child dressed like poor or wearing unfitted clothes to make their child to be very lousy looking. All of their beliefs I personally think is due to the generally poverty in the society.
Their beliefs bring with them to the United States when they moved and even try to pass down to their next generation.

Chinese culture intentionally suppress appearance care is similar to Bible teaching in Western society, which in deed cause most of Chinese have very terrible problems about personal hygiene .

It is an interesting finding in East and West cultures while one side thinking neat looking is politeness, another side thinking it has underlying meaning.
