In Nigeria, lighter skin is seen as an association between wealth and higher-class employment. Skin lightening items are commonly sought out as many want to be associated with a higher class. However, due to the concept of being slim, suggesting illness or ill health, the choice in terms of form is thicker and curvy females. Therefore, the ideal is to be voluptuous, dense, and somewhat larger as a symbol of good health in Nigeria.

Romanian women face heavy pressure to be skinny, making smoking and dieting a part of the culture. They are also very much influenced by Western ways since plastic surgery is very much performed and accessible. Having an instructor in heels, no matter their occupation is not unusual for women to dress up. There is, however, a subtle border between being conservative and revealing-for exposing too much, women are criticized—long hair, preserved nails, and on the bust and trim, a well-built sort of body.
