How much do looks define your self-image?

[shootingstar]

Today have learned all sorts of stuff about TE forum members never dreamt of.

There's something about the beauty of the anonymity of the Internet.

And one day maybe I will know of a woman in person who had and will tell others that she had plastic surgery just to make herself more beautiful...not because she suffered breast cancer, was a burn victim, etc.

Until then, my world remains narrow.

hmmm....I've said this on this board before.....I had plastic surgery (got breast implants). I got them to make my body more attractive.

That's the bottom line. But there is much more to it.

With them I have a better self image of my body. I could discuss this at length, but I know that there are those would never understand my decision and would call my swallow or have some other less that positive opinion of me because of it. And although, I really do care what others think of me.....It's my intention in life to have a positive, inspiring and encouraging influence on other people....It doesn't matter to me if there are those who disagree with my decision to get plastic surgery.
