A person's worth seems to be judged by appearance and social status more than by traditional values of kindness, trust, and honor. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is commonly argued that an individual's worth and dignity are judged

according to

societal stereotypes and judgment

along with

material possessions, taking over the traditional values of true

beauty

. Personally, I strongly agree with

this

view for a variety of reasons.

To begin

with, the importance of true

beauty

, the

beauty

of the soul, has faded away. In fact, how society is defining

beauty

has altered contrastingly from the past. The majority define

beauty

nowadays based on appearance, how they dress, how they look, and appeal to others. In reality, an increasing number of

individuals

search for partners with demandingly high standards of visual appearance rather than what's underneath their looks, and their characteristics.

For example

, a recent survey at Johns Hopkins University has shown that approximately 75% of respondents value looks over personality.

Furthermore

, the significance of

money

and social status is rapidly rising. Nowadays, many

individuals

define a person's worth

according to

how much earnings they make and can provide.

Money

is often perceived as one of the crucial contributors to a person's dignity. Despite society's effort to enlighten the idea of "gold diggers" referring to

individuals

who take advantage of others’

money

for their personal development as guilty, many

individuals

continue to do

this

.

For instance

, many recent studies have concluded that

money

and wealth hampers the traditional value of kindness and trust characteristics. In conclusion, in today 's society, a person's worth is highly judged based on social status and overlooked appearance. In my opinion, traditional values for personality should be seen as more important and valuable than physical properties or looks.
