beauty is only skin-deep; beneath that is gross anatomy.
my brother i.e. smartest person in the world according to me, said the above line (because he is a medical student, and he has to study bones and flesh etc). isn't that so true? our beauty is determined upon the skin stretched over our muscles and bones etc. oh yeah the way our muscles and bones lie also contribute to our final outcome, but come on. how pretty is a skinless person? you can have a gorgeous bone structure, but without your skin people just think you're a freak.
what is wrong with plastic surgery? i don't see what's wrong with surgically enhancing one's features, or even completely changing one's face (as long as one isn't an axe murderer/terrorist running away from the law). we aren't interfering with God's work. if it were, God wouldn't have allowed us to discover plastic surgery, innit?
people say, love yourself, be yourself etc. i loved myself when i had small eyes and single eyelids with cysts growing in them. you can ask my friends and family. i loved myself so much that i have a bruise on my back from patting myself so hard. but now that i have cyst-free double eyelids i love myself even more.
about the be yourself part, i'm still the same person i am. i am still myself. my outward appearance may change, but my character and personality remains fixed. it's like clothes. you put on clothes and take them off, but your body still remains the same body underneath the clothes. you paint your face with makeup and wash it off; your face still stays on your head.
can you imagine washing your face, and your eyes, nose and lips just dissolve with the soap suds and get splashed off with water, and you end up with just a blank expanse of skin where your face was?
that had no relevance to my argument, but i just felt like saying it.
anyway i'm too lazy to continue writing. tra-la-la.
