Ridiculous! Scum. Filth.

And I don’t natively have warm and fuzzy feelings about it either, though ultimately I do not think it matters too much what my brain spits out when I hear “cosmetic surgery”. Like, that is mostly going to be vague shit I learned via osmosis. 

 But like I said in the tags, people tend to view cosmetic surgery with particular sadness and horror they’re entitled to publicly express, partly because it’s “unnatural” and “extreme”. Or they see it as an utterly demeaning capitulation to social norms that reflects negatively on the character and priorities of the person getting it.

 Wanting to be attractive, to like how you look, and to not be treated badly are generally sympathetic motives, but if you do any of these very unnatural and extreme things to pursue them, fuck you I guess. Ever considered you wouldn’t do that in a counterfactual world? Therefore, you shouldn’t do it now. Have you tried overcoming your feelings about your body? Have you tried not thinking about it? Anyway, you can’t possibly be making a rational decision, and we’re going to grieve your old body even if you like the new one better.
