The Mursi Tribe is Willing to Pierce Their Lips as a Symbol of Beauty
There's no end to the discussion of female beauty standards. Beauty standards vary from country to country. Some people feel beautiful because they have fair skin, a slim waist, large eyes, or a high nose.
Similarly, the beauty standards for Mursi women are those who believe they are beautiful if they have a wide lower lip. Yes, this tribe, which is part of the Surma tribe, has a rather extreme tradition: placing a round disc on their lips.
