Comments on The Kids' Book on Plastic Surgery
I love it!
My aunt had her nose done decades ago. And then her daughter had her nose done when she was in college. I'm wondering when my cousin's daughter is going to ask mommy why mommy's nose is so different than her own. And the cycle will continue. . . But they sure are pretty!
When I was six and one of my lesbian moms got a much larger tattoo and steel pin through her nose I could have really used a book like this to help me work through all the questions I had.
Yeah, that collosal schnoz couldn't POSSIBLY be hereditary!
When I was in fifth grade, my mom got a nose job. We didn't have books about the subject back then, so my mom tried to soften the blow of her temporarily black-and-blue face (with HUGE black eyes) by hiding it under a paper bag, which she'd adorned with cartoon-lady facial features.
It was the scariest thing I've ever seen--much more disturbing than her actual face, which looked like it had been worked over by an angry pimp.
Where's a good book burning when you need one?
It's written by a plastic surgeon, which might also explain why the plastic surgeon in the book is ridiculously buff and hunky.
This is too sick for words. What happened to trying to raise our kids with good self-esteems? Madness.
I love the McMansion and BMW-ish SUV in that 2nd image. Nice way to re-inforce a stereotype!
Sigh. The cartoon lady had a good figure, by any stretch of the imagination, before she even went in for the surgery.
Her thighs are probably the least attractive thing about her. Does anyone else notice that the tummy tuck somehow made them even smaller and Barbie-like?
well, it's a tough choice. new jeans, or plastic surgery. i think she made the same choice any of us would have made in the same situation.
but it looks like she got new jeans anyway.
File this under: things that make ECB's head explode. I sometimes wonder if there is some evil genious out there taht puts out stuff like this just to piss off the feminists...
It's about time! If Mom wasn't such a butt-ugly whore, I'm sure I wouldn't have the misogyny and self-esteem issues I've got today!
That doc has some serious pectoral and jaw implants.
Since when did Clark Kent get a job as plastic surgeon?
this reminds me of the story about the 13 yr old who asked for fake boobs on her birthday. just like mommy's, how sweet.
Barf.
The more sickening thing is, in the comments on the Newsweek website, some people are APPLAUDING this book. One guy even wrote," We could have used this when my wife got new breasts!"
Sometimes I would gladly trade living in the modern world with living in the medeval one... and that's WITH witch-burning and the Black Plague.
A lot of plastic surgery procedures - especially facelifts - are so prevalent and so immediately recognizable by just about everyone these days, I'm a little surprised it's a still-increasing phenomena. People are trying to buy youth and self confidence, but are forever left with the tell-tale markings of old age and insecurity.
Also, what the fuck is up with Dr. Phil's wife's FACE? Kinda an elephant in the room for a guy peddling, uh, whatever he peddles.
What's wrong with plastic surgery? It fixes God's mistakes. Unless you believe that happy horseshit that everyone is beautiful. (They're not, by the way.)
19,
i have often wondered about his wife myself- especially when they do shows on the extremes of plastic surgery and she sits in the front row with a permanent look of surprise and elation. then again... maybe she just draws her eyebrows on her forhead.
Someone should write one for daddies who want to explain why they are getting a trophy wife to replace ugly mommy.
does the book mention the fact that mommy might die during the procedure? like kanye west's mommy did?
"Now, little Maddy-Lou, Mommy's going to make her boobies bigger so that nice bagger down at the QFC will want to fuck her".
My hot Stepford mommy, but I can't be seen in public with her until they do the botox and vaginal reconstruction work.
So sad. It is a commentary on society that plastic surgery is so common. I love the quote at the end of the article where the feminist asks whether women are allowed to be natural.
Women who indulge in plastic surgery are mutants, but women who don't are ignored and demoted. There is no good way to age in America if you're a woman.
All I can say is that I can't wait until men are expected to get implants, tucks, and creepy bone-sawing facial surgery.
FWIW, ECB, I haven't heard of this book until now, so clearly, circulation can't be all that great.
This is a bit too easy of a target for you. I can't imagine most American women and media outlets wouldn't also be offended by this and refuse to give it the time of day.
