- Glad you've drawn and quartered me without fair hearing. The woman in
- question is getting her breasts reduced, in my humble opinion, for the
- wrong reasons. NOT because of back pain and other valid medical
- reasons, but for deep rooted psychological reasons: she's incredibly
- self-conscious, shy, and ego-less. True, you only have MY word on
- this, but that's my opinion on the matter.
-
- If she were getting it done for the medical reasons, I'd be all for
- it. But she's doing this for the wrong reasons: she may eventually
- decide she did the wrong thing. Being uncomfortable with your body is
- no reason to lob off parts of it. Have you heard that they developped
- a technique to make downsyndrome (sp?) children look normal? This was
- questioned immediately: why should they HAVE to look "normal"?
-
- By the way, I also disagree with injecting breasts with silicon,
- having your lips injected with whatever, having your nose sculpted,
- having fat sucked out of your head, etc. It's all incredibly
- ridiculous. Changing what you are to suit some sort of version of
- what is "normal" and "good". FEH.
