The criticisms suffered by the singer Madonna regarding her appearance are just an example of what happens to women (famous and otherwise)
Madonna, When he appeared in Copacabana in front of the Globo cameras, he became a topic of discussion online. Not for his (enviable) ease, voice, stage posture, etc. Criticism arose because he apparently exaggerated the cosmetic procedures.
Here I open space for a reflection: what do you think about leaving Madonna (and many women) alone?
In the past, those over 40 were forced to cut their hair (think that long hair is for young people). Bangs, absolutely not! Surgical interventions and cosmetic procedures were only talked about in the confessional, at the point of death. It is a sin to assume that you have changed the characteristics that God created…
Paradoxically, even the assumption of gray hair, of age, in short of the signs of aging, has always generated prejudices – today it is known by the name ‘ageism‘. We can also add the word “misogyny” to this recipe of social distortion, since, while women are stoned for their choices, men can age however they want.
Finally, anyone who has followed Madonna’s artistic journey since the 1980s knows that she has never followed these social rules. He has always been innovative, provocative, irreverent and controversial. She has always preached that women should be free so that they can be (and do) what they want in life, face, body and soul. Today’s Madonna would not have it any other way.
Last year, on the same social networks that crucified her, she gave herself a slap (in a cast, so what?) and responded with an outburst to criticism of her appearance.

“Instead of focusing on what I said in my speech, which was about being grateful for the courage and freshness of artists like Sam Smith and Kim Petras, many people chose to only talk about my close-up photos. Photos taken with a long lens camera that would distort anyone’s face!”, the singer wrote in a publication referring to the criticism after the Grammy Awards.
Here’s a message, especially for women: sisterhood, another virtual buzzword, but little used in real life, is about the welcome we should have among us. Regardless of whether I like Madonna’s face or not, I like the freedom she offers with her actions.
