Bigger Boobies
On Dr. Laura the other day a woman called in and asked if she should get breast implants even though her fiance said she shouldn't and looked just fine.
Obviously Dr. Laura is against breast implants but you know what her argument as to why it's unnecessary was very convincing. She asked the young woman why she wanted them. The woman said for better self esteem. Dr. Laura asked if she thought that would actually fix the issue? The girl really didn't have an answer, but I think most of us know the answer, and it's no it won't.
Dr. Laura then asked the woman why she was reducing herself to just her boobies. The woman said she wanted to feel more womanly. And Dr. Laura was kind of surprised by this, why was this woman reducing womanhood down to how big your breasts are?
And it's true, why do women judge themselves and their womanhood by how big their boobs are? Are they in competition with each other, or hoping for attention from men? And like Dr. Laura said, men may pay attention to boobs but they fall in love with the person. And no matter your breast size if you're a bitch, they aren't going to love you. I don't know if it's to get men, but more to compete with other women. It seems to me that women are motivated more by how other women see them, rather than men.
Do I think getting implants is wrong? Honestly I don't care what people do. I found though what Dr. Laura said to be something to think about. Why are women reducing themselves to their breast size? Why is so much value placed on looks over character? And what does that say about a person who places looks over character?
