Abstract

Nowadays, discrimination and body shaming are still essential issues for women. There is also a current standard of beauty that refers to the beauty standards of South Korea. Thus, this study aims to describe beauty in woman’s idealism since the days of the Kraton Surakarta, whose story was written in Serat Partakrama in 1825 until today’s generation Z. This study uses ethnolinguistic theory to describe the research problems. The method used in this research is the qualitative research method. The type of literature study research, Serat Partakrama, explains that a woman’s beauty comes from within and outside. Beauty from within forms a good personality. In addition, it also radiates women’s visuality, which makes them beautiful inside and out. However, the idealism of Javanese society today has changed. Many Javanese people modify their visuals with cosmetic surgery or plastic surgery. The demand for social status makes beauty something necessary. Due to the ever-changing standardization, many women experience bullying, discrimination, and mental illness.
