In a general sense, I believe that people should be free to do whatever they want as long as it does not harm anyone directly. This includes any type of body modification, for any purpose, whether it's shaving, tattooing, or lyposuction.
However, on a societal level, I am concerned about the trend of increasing amounts of plastic surgery. Are people overlooking the fact that all surgery is dangerous and painful?
While this may seem to contradict what I just said, I do see a clear difference between surgery and body modifications that can be done by people outside the medical profession, without drugs (as in shaving or tattooing). Anaesthesia and internal injuries create huge risks.
I agree with several of the above posters that natural bodies are beautiful. I enjoy the diversity among people's appearances.
I agree, I think people should stop forcing their own beliefs on people
I see what they mean, but unless they're personally pressured by these people who have gotten the surgery-they have no right to tell someone how to spend their money
