One Is Not Born, But Rather Becomes, Beautiful!: Examination of Beauty Through Beauvoir's Transcendence and Irigaray's Mimicry Concepts
Abstract
One Is Not Born, But Rather Becomes, Beautiful! is a stand of respect for Simone de Beauvoir's motto which says One Is Not Born, But Rather Becomes, A Woman!; it is also a critique of masculine domination based on the idea of identicalness between femininity and beauty. This paper combines beauty with the notion of femininity which is built by cultural and social norms and emphasizes the designs attributed to the nature of the woman. It also opens up a discussion about the methods of escape the beauty that is attributed to woman nature with Beauvoir's transcendence idea and Luce Irigaray's mimicry theory. Although Beauvoir's transcendence and Irigaray's imitation method may seem different at first glance, it is actually added end to end. Basically both thoughts centered on the equality of women and men, and both desired that the woman reaches male-specific transcendence. Transcendence, which is seen as the ultimate solution to be reached in Beauvoir, is not sufficient alone in Irigaray. As a matter of fact, Irigaray argues that the gender equality in question will be achieved through a transformation that will take place through language. The mimetic method is a must for linguistic transformation. This radical method suggested by Irigaray leads women to conquer the castle from inside by creating a reflection of the male dominant view. In addition to the suspence regarding the method's implemantation, transformation of beauty into a new masculine yoke for the transcendental woman leaves the methods discussed in terms of gender equality effectless. This research explores the methods of getting rid of this concept of beauty that imbues women through emphasizing that beauty attributed to the woman after home and housework pulled the woman into a control mechanism that she could not escape, it; It also questions whether Irigaray's mimicry strategy can offer a solution to this beauty problem.
