Coty, one of the largest beauty companies in the world, accused dictionaries of 'ageism' and 'sexism' in their definitions of the word 'beauty' and called it 'outdated.'

Coty CEO Sue Nabi wrote in a letter to dictionary publishers that it was time to update their definition. "Seen through the lens of today’s society and values, the definition of beauty hasn’t aged well. Of course, not all people are impacted by, or feel excluded by these definitions," Nabi said."But the implicit ageism and sexism in the examples were born in a different time. We believe it’s time to bridge the gap - time to bring the definition to where society is today.
