    Right. I don't get why people feel the need to impose their opinions on other people. If you think cosmetic surgery is wrong, that's fine - don't get anything done.

    ha..anyone who says they're not concerned about their appearance is basically lying.
    Agree.

    -

    I don't know what I would have done... probably skin treatments as I get older. I dislike my nose [and I do legitimately have a deviated septum that interferes w breathing when I run, ha], but I don't know whether I would go under the knife for it... not bc I think it's "wrong," but bc I don't know if it'd be worth it.

    i also have a deviated septum. i never bothered with getting it fixed, either. maybe in the future or if i can be convinced that it's actually worth it.

    There are always things I dislike about myself, but I can't think of anything I'd actually want surgery for. That feels extreme to me.

    Beauty is in imperfection. Once you contrive it, all hope is lost. Hence society.

    Yeah, I agree that "imperfect beauty" is most appealing - but when it comes down to it, there's definitely a limit to how many/what kinds of imperfections most people interpret as beautiful....

    No. It's all or nothing: you either care or you don't. Wearing makeup and undergoing cosmetic surgery are both indicative of some amount of concern for your personal appearance, albeit maybe to different degrees.

    Haha, yeah - it sounds all deep and pure... until you admit that in practice you probably don't actually find imperfections quite as attractive as you said you did in theory.
