In the latest episode of MTV\u2019s web series \u201cDecoded,\u201d host Franchesca Ramsey joins forces with other women of color to discuss White beauty standards, which is defined in the video as \u201cwhen Whiteness is a default and it becomes the cultural ideal for beauty.\u201d<\/p>\n

The featured women share how that standard impacts their lives and just why it\u2019s important for women of all races to see themselves reflected in media. They also play a rather depressing game that involves googling \u201cbeautiful woman\u201d and \u201cunprofessional hairstyle\u201d\u2014good luck with that.
