The Problem with Society today: Labeling (Lizzie Velasquez)

Let's take a second to talk about something that really truly bugs me about today's society. There is way too much judgement. I know that judging is a part of human nature, but is it really necessary to label people? Clearly everyone on this earth isn't the same and I am aware of this. Everyone else should be too. What makes it even worse is that we can label someone as "the ugliest person in the world". This really is a problem. Lizzie Velasquez was labeled as this.

I think it's really wrong to label someone as "the ugliest person  in the world" because in reality she isn't ugly at all. Beauty doesn't come just from your appearance it comes from your personality as well. After seeing she was labeled this I wanted to know who she was. I wanted to see what else was beyond her other than just that she was labeled something so horrible. I looked her up and I found all that I could on her. There is really no ugliness to her. She has struggled, and she honestly seems like the most sweetest person ever. 

So the really big problem we are faced with today is labeling and it's wrong. I'm going to always say it's wrong. I don't care who you are there should be NO REASON to EVER label someone as "The most ugliest person in the world". You don't know that persons story, where they come from, what happened to them. You just want to label this person all because you saw a picture and just thought they were unappealing. So next time don't label or judge anyone. Is it really worth it?
