A recent survey shows that of the people surveyed, 65% of them would seriously ponder getting plastic surgery, if money wasn't a factor. The percentage has greatly increased in the past few years and is continuing to increase with the accessibility of plastic surgery. Initially, plastic surgery was for the rich and famous. No payment plans were taken and no deals were made. Nowadays, you can finance your breasts along with getting a new plan for your next procedure. More and more, a lot of people who can't afford a better doctor are shopping around for "doctors" that will give them a discount...but at what price?
The number of horror stories of the surgeries that have gone wrong is on the rise as the need for acceptance continues to grow. With each successful story comes its negative counterpart illustrating just how ugly the fascination of beauty can be. Some women are willing to risk their lives instead of doing their research and taking the proper precautions.
My opinion is this: I will always advocate learning to love what God has given you. I personally feel that it's always the best option. However: whether you agree with plastic surgery or not, do it because YOU want to make yourself happy...and no one else. Some may not want to admit it but men and their obsession with the female physique drive certain women to alter their appearance. I took the time to survey men and found that the majority of them preferred their women "as-is" and "au natural." Regardless of the reasons, always make sure that the person on the procedure table will wake up with no regrets. No matter what....live, laugh, and LOVE YOU.

This is a much needed read and relevant to the times. I much rather wake up to a woman that is confident and comfortable with the "natural" state of her being. That's beautiful in and of itself, no matter what the status quo is...Thanks Steph!
No problem Eryck! Thank you for your comment! I polled quite a few men and received the same feedback from them! No matter what you choose, the name of the game is "Be comfortable in your own skin!"...For me (personally), I have learned to love myself and be happy and grateful for that! :)
This is so true... and its also the way that the music industry has gone with the likes of Nicki Minaj, so many girls feel like they have to be this "Image of Beauty" to actually FEEL beautiful inside, when they are in reality focusing on the outside and not seeing what's within: the power of the soul! That's what they want us to forget. The media forces young minds to crave this perfection of the outer appearance, forgetting what really matters: YOU.
I love this entry, I totally agree with you Ms. Benoit!
Thank You for speaking the truth to these people :-)
