[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The internalized misogyny is astounding. The number of women who believe they look “wrong” and are willing to do horrible things to their perfectly healthy bodies is sickening.  Meanwhile men just shrug, shave and go on with their lives. [/quote]

I don't know if it's misogyny but I do find it terrible how many people are eager to erase a natural characteristic. People look different. That gives them character. Those examples a PP above posted -- maybe the girls look more WASP pretty, but they looked perfectly fine before and regardless, they looked how they're supposed to look. I rank nose jobs up there with Korean eyelid surgery or, as another PP suggested, a Black child wanting to lighten their skin. Terrible.

I had a friend who used to comment on guys' noses. "Cute but a Jewish nose." I am Jewish. I don't get offended all that easily but yeah, that was offensive. There is nothing wrong with an "ethnic" look of any kind. We are not all meant to be WASPs with tiny straight noses. Have some pride in your heritage, for goodness sake.[/quote]
