Beauty.

I have come to the realisation that this kind of pictures without context, cultural explanation and distinct personification of these people ultimately ‘otherise’ and objectify them and their culture. An empty canvas where, westerners can throw their fantasies, stereotypes and prejudices - even many think and claim to be well meaning. 
Also there is such a voyeuristic approach UGH
I vow never to reblog this kind of thing again. 

I’ll do the same as well.
