Thanks to the rise of social media, we’re all bombarded with images of seemingly perfect-looking people; it seems as though the world has become even more shallow in how people are judged.
The world can appear incredibly cruel to those of us who don’t match the stereotyped “perfect” pattern when total strangers feel compelled to judge someone based only on how they appear on social media.
Nobody is more aware of this than Karine de Souza. Due to her uncommon skin condition, the Brazilian woman has spent her entire life using SPF100 sunscreens on her skin, even while she is indoors.
He also chose to include the three kids from Karine’s former marriage, which naturally meant a lot to Karine.
She claims that “he came and he taught me that I could live a true love tale.”
But after sharing pictures of the two of them online, Karine was once more the target of a barrage of derogatory remarks.
According to the Daily Mail, Karine stated, “We have already seen several unpleasant comments calling me a monster, disfigured, or a zombie.”
Some remarks implied that their romance wasn’t real, Karine was a “sugar mommy,” and that she must be incredibly wealthy.
People were drawn to him because he is young and attractive, and they didn’t think he would be with me since he really liked me, Karine added.
A photographer who photographed the pair after their engagement uploaded some of the photos online with the following caption:
“In a society where outward appearances are more important than inner feelings, they did not meet by accident; rather, a gathering of souls resulted in an encounter of acceptance, character, and love. Today, you are an inspiration to so many people who lack faith in themselves, in life, and especially in love.
“I appreciate you being who you are every day. STOP whining about how you are what you are. Accept life and yourself with a HUG. Thank you very much for teaching me so much. You two are incredible. For so many individuals, you represent the lost hope. I appreciate the warm embrace as well as the fantastic day we shared. I’ll always keep your smile in mind.
Karine has been through so much but thanks to her positive attitude she has found the happiness she deserves.
