Why are you so wrapped up in this? You have a bone to pick? Really? Why are you wasting energy on this?

perfectly when you said the part about 'not being born good enough.' That's exactly how I felt 30+ years ago when I had my rhinoplasty - Not Good Enough... I was tired of being called names "Here comes Nose" & hiding behind/beneath my hair...so before you judge 'Everyone' you've also got to think about the why's & wherefore's that got each individual person to that decision...As for me, after my surgery, I became a much more confident, happy person and wasn't afraid to go out in public like I had been previously. Tapping out? I think not...

Think they are overcompensating for their low self esteem. Agreed, they become unbearable fucking asses. That with fake tan people.

But for different reasons. I think these people are insecure, face pressure from society or don't feel good in their bodies. It's just sad. I wish people would love themselves the way they are. Diversity is good. Aging is a natural process that can be beautiful too.

It's almost impossible to make a living if you are an ugly woman; all the odds are against you, even if you are educated, skilled and have a good attitude. Nobody wants to spend thousands of dollars to have their face carved up for no reason. They are just trying to survive. Moreover, if you've ever had braces or worn fake cups in your breasts, you are a total hypocrite!

Quit being so judgmental and be kind. It's none of your business what sort of surgery people get to make themselves feel better. How does someone else getting surgery - to improve their self esteem and confidence levels - have anything to do with you??

I am one of those people. Grow the EFF UP.

This is confessions, no holds barred. Can't take the heat?.. Get out of the kitchen!

... and I'm so happy that I did! Before, my teeth looked like I could eat corn through a fence. Now, they are perfect. I wish I had them fixed when I was a teenager; it would have made my 20s way more pleasant.

There's nothing wrong with spending money on fixing something that makes you unhappy.

So don't judge so harshly. I don't know anyone who doesn't fix something about themselves everyday ie. "do their hair", wear makeup, shave, etc.

I had braces put on when I was 15, and then again when I was 22. My teeth were so perfect that people would constantly say how perfect my smile was, but I always knew that they weren't mine, and I always felt that my face looked kind of different. Four years ago I ripped off the retainers that they glue on the back of your teeth post-braces to keep them straight, and my teeth have shifted back to their curly state (although slightly less crooked than before any braces) I don't mind not having perfect teeth anymore, its a confidence thing. I don't want to be selling myself as something I'm not (my teeth now are also more 'ethnically accurate' if that makes sense, whereas before they looked more like the caucasian ideal)If other people are insecure and need to fix a thing here and there, I wish them the best! I don't judge, I remember how as a teenager it was hard to smile and talk to people...I know not everyone grows in confidence and maturity. Not everyone learns to love themselves, flaws and all, as they get older. It is a blessing to accept yourself as you are, as you were born. Plastic surgery is in a way, an insult to yourself, a way of publicly declaring "I'm not good enough as I am" but you know what? if its gonna make someone happier and more confident, and torture them less, then I'm all for it...we live in a society that is very difficult to live in, with its perfect standards. But that's one of the reasons why I ripped off my retainers, because I don't want to be one more person that looks "perfect", I want children and other people to look at me and think wow! look how crooked her teeth are! and maybe they too, can learn to feel they don't have to be perfect as well. Best of luck and love to everyone, we all have flaws! Let's LOVE ourselves!

Cosmetic surgery used to be reserved for older women attempting to buy back some of their glory years. Now because of celebrity worship, we have perfectly beautiful young women going under the knife and coming out looking absolutely awful compared to their natural looks (case in point - Tulisa). It's so sad how shallow the beautiful people have become, ruining their natural looks in pursuit of 'perfection' which often makes them look ridiculous.
Too bad they don't offer surgically enhanced personality!
