More Plastic Surgery Nonesense...WIll it ever end?

A few weeks ago I found a story about a website called Myfreeimplants.com. This is a site that connects small-chested females with men who'll donate money to help them reach that goal! The guys pay $1.25 to send a message to the women, and $1.00 of that fee goes to their surgery fund (Grunstra keeps 25 cents). Crazy right?

Well I just came across an article about "Mommy Makeovers". What is a "Mommy Makeover" you ask?

The procedure, The New York Times reports, is marketed toward new mothers. It usually involves a breastlift (implants optional), a tummy tuck, and liposuction. Plasticsurgeons are encouraging women to get post-pregnancy surgery to"repair" the so-called damage inflicted on their bodies throughpregnancy and childbirth. The surgery costs $10,000 to $30,000.

I think this is just another way to make women feel bad about themselves. Givng birth is a beautiful thing. Without it we would cease to exist as a species. So why does a Woman need to "REPAIR" her body after she gives birth? It should be a badge of honor. Or am I just naive? I've never been pregnant and I'm self conscious about my weight. So maybe I don't know becaues I've never been thru pregnancy. BUT I am sick of plastic surgons and the media pointing out ways to "Repair" us women. I wish we could use more of our psychic and emotional energy trying to fix bigger problems like world hunger, war and the energy crisis.

What do you think?

Some of this info comes from:
