Will You?
Description
Once Mary heard a famous song, and a line from it stuck in her head. That line was “Will you still love me when I’m no longer young and beautiful?”. Mary believes that a person is loved if and only if he/she is both young and beautiful, but this is quite a depressing thought, so she wants to put her belief to the test.

, beautiful
and loved
, find out if they contradict Mary’s belief.
A person contradicts Mary’s belief if one of the following statements is true:

For
young = true
,beautiful = false
, andloved = true
