Nine out of 10 women don't go into surgery to change their breasts because of bad back pain. They do it to get a better job, a new man, a better life. There are often psychological problems at the basis [of surgery] and my fear is that women aren't being challenged enough about them. |
Plastic surgery has become de-medicalised. It involves risk, it involves potentially lethal anaesthetics, yet it now seems as commonplace as having a pedicure. |
To be able to laugh at one's own shortcomings is positive if it helps to put things into perspective. It reminds us that everyone has the same issues, and helps women feel better about themselves. If it's laughing at the fact that everyone's cellulite looks worse in the mirrors in the changing rooms, that's good, because everyone's had that; you don't feel alone. |
