What Personality Traits Do Women Who Don’t Wear Jewelry Reflect?

The writer Mo Yan once shared that when he meets women who don't wear jewelry, he believes they are very special.

There’s an old saying: “A scholar will die for the one who understands them, and a woman will beautify herself for the one who loves her.” Women naturally love beauty and often enjoy makeup and wearing jewelry like necklaces, earrings, and bracelets to enhance their appearance.  However, in life, it’s not uncommon to encounter women who don’t adorn themselves with these accessories.  What makes them different?

Mo Yan believes that women who don’t wear makeup or jewelry tend to be unique individuals.  They are unconcerned with fame or gain and have pure souls.  In today’s society, such women—gentle, calm, and unpretentious—are rare.  They do not belong to a world of materialism but possess natural beauty, live simply, and have pure hearts.

Today, with advanced technology, women can achieve near-perfect beauty through cosmetic surgery.  But this only alters their outward appearance.  What about their inner qualities?  While they may not need to nurture their souls, the focus on outer beauty may obscure what truly matters: inner values.  Is outward beauty really as important as we think?

Which Is More Important: Outer Beauty or Inner Beauty?

Self-image is how we perceive ourselves.  When we feel comfortable, our work and relationships improve, and life becomes more harmonious.  But does appearance really determine everything?

Physical beauty only holds value when paired with inner beauty, which is far more enduring than appearance, which fades over time.  Inner beauty is reflected in how you behave, the good deeds you do, and the knowledge you accumulate.  It is an invisible charm, the true essence of a person.  Inner grace reveals your personality and character.  Achieving this requires learning and cultivating yourself through books and life experiences.

So, which will you choose: outer beauty or inner beauty?

Note: Mo Yan (born February 17, 1955) is a Chinese writer from a farming background.  He became internationally known with his work Red Sorghum, which was adapted into a film by famous director Zhang Yimou.  The movie won the Golden Bear award at the Berlin International Film Festival in 1988.  Mo Yan had to drop out of elementary school due to the Cultural Revolution and spent many years working in rural areas, herding goats and facing hunger and loneliness.  On October 11, 2012, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, becoming the first Chinese citizen to receive this prestigious honor.
