  • [Adulting] Appearances: Vanity or human nature?

    Hello SETlers! In this episode, Kiky and Gio are going to talk about appearance, is it vanity or human nature? Everyone is unique. So, the personal appearance of everyone is different. As you know, everyone is represented by their own personal appearance. Appearance is your own image that you give out to other people. For example, a beggar and an actor. What image is given out by them? Which one is more attractive? Which one do you want to know more about? I think the answer must be the actor. Do you agree that appearance is important? But is it because of vanity or human nature? Let us know your opinion by writing to our IG comment section: @englishtoday or youtube channel: English Today Indonesia.
