26. Why not change something that makes you insecure?
I’m sure everyone reading this has something about themselves that you just wish to be different. Maybe surgery can fix it if it’s a doable thing. If you have the money, why not go for it? This Reddit user brings up the dilemma of if you can change something, then do it. “People like to say, “Oh, I don’t like plastic surgery, it looks unnatural,” but I am curious how they know when they’re looking at someone who has had plastic surgery or not? It seems like you would only notice it when it was poorly done.
I think this is the same reason a lot of guys say that girls are more attractive when they don’t wear makeup. What they really mean is that they don’t like it when a girl is obviously wearing noticeable makeup. A girl who does a good job of applying natural-looking makeup is going to look prettier than she would with no makeup. I have known a few girls who have gotten nose jobs, and they are all happier for it. With one in particular, she really did have a huge, hooked nose, and it distracted from the rest of her face. It was really bad. It almost looked like something a Nazi propagandist would draw. She looked much better after the surgery.”
