Thank you for your response Dear Lioness,
The primary problem we’re facing is the fact that NO ONE seems to take credit for what we call “society”..
We tend to think that “society” is some thing..some collective outside force… that seems to have silently set certain standards we MUST go by..
We often utter: “ Oh that’s how today’s society is …what can you do?” As if we have absolutely no part in it..
Who decided what‘s ugly ?... or that “aging” is detrimental?..
SOCIETY did!! ….But WHO IS “society”??
WE ARE!!..Every single human being is part of it..Those in the media, politics or in the government are NO different than we are!!
When we start to realize that we all have an equal amount of influence upon our society…
Only then can we change the current societal structure.
The initial change however, has to start with the individual.. the fundamental part of society..
The individual's identification with the society created mind, is the mere reason for the fallacy of human interaction...which in turn creates separation.
A change in state of mind required..not a change in societal structure…...the latter will follow...

Who to blame...?
Society has imposed its standards on us and we’ve unknowingly accepted and maintained and followed them…...
This acceptance has led us to avoid being ourselves in order to avoid non acceptance..by society..
We’ve reached a point that almost one hundred percent of our interactions exhibit some form of untruth… regardless of how minute it may be…or seem to us rather…each mind operates differently .
How can any society in which the most basic human interactions are based on falsehood, function properly on ANY level..??
If we were raised to:.."hide this, suppress that, be this, judge that, look like that" … by” societies”standards ..NOT OUR OWN…WHY do we keep blaming each other for behaving the way we do towards one another?
Greed, fear, distrust and hate are all mental attributes we adapted not because we found it necessary..because SOCIETY taught us that it’s necessary for one to succeed and survive in this world.
Wars were never fought to create peace…AT LEAST one of the warring parties uses the pretense of peaceful intent as a means to gain power over another…which in turn..
will NEVER create a peaceful situation...
The fallacy of human interaction..a global dilemma..
