Standards of beauty are culturally variable. In the United States,

A) White women are more concerned about weight than are African American women.
B) Hispanics and Whites have the same standard for thinness in women.
C) African American women are more self-critical of their bodies than are White women
D) Hispanic women are more interested in outward appearances of beauty than are White women.

Research has shown that, on average, White women are more concerned about weight and more likely to experience body dissatisfaction than African American women. Other studies have shown that Hispanic women are also more likely to have positive body image compared to White women. The statement about African American women being more self-critical is not supported by research. The statement about Hispanic women being more interested in outward appearances is too broad and not supported by research.
