RE: Why This Girl Tries To Look Like Angelina Jolie?

in #anthropology7 years ago (edited)

because she is stupid. Same applies to other people trying to achieve similar extreme body transformations. A few years ago these people would get mental help but now no, we have to accept, embrace and sometimes even pay (through tax money) their stupid transformations.

Sort:  

Oh my...he looks terrible. Even if I had all the money in the world I would NOT do this to myself. He looked so much better before he had all his surgery. We live in a very sad world. People think that they need to look a certain way instead of working on themselves to start to try and be a better person.

20-30 years ago this guy would be closed in a mental facility and get proper care. Now his transformation is encouraged & celebrated in the media while viewers laugh at him. Without proper care, he will probably end seriously malformed and kill himself (either by suicide or by having too many surgeries) in a matter of years or something. It's not him to blame, it's the society.

But he should have some common sense. He is the one agreeing to this and we can surely not blame a society for that?

he is mentally ill, we can't expect from a mentally disabled person to take good decisions for themselves much like we can't expect from a quadriplegic to...walk

You are right there, but surely doctors should have the decency to tell him to stop or refuse to do any further surgeries on him. But for them I suppose it is all about the money. If he is willing to pay whatever, then the situation gets difficult. We live in a very sick world.

we are all products of our environment (and the society we live in), and we all contribute to the reproduction of society in some way. You can't really separate the individual from society or vice verse. One does not exist without the other. Can we blame society? In some ways, yes. He received the ever present message that a person's appearance is the most important characteristic they posses. Is it any surprise that people go to extremes to achieve what they see as a perfect aesthetic?
