Some women are willing to
do anything to make themselves beautiful in society's eyes. Plastic surgery is
a billion dollar industry in the United States. In 2012 alone there were 10
million cosmetic surgeries performed in the U.S. Most of these cosmetic surgeries
were face-lifts, breast augmentations, and facial enhancements (i.e. Botox). In
addition to this massive number of cosmetic surgeries, half the women that get
them end up getting multiple ones because women tend to find more and more
imperfections about themselves. Chinese women take a unique approach to beauty.
They believe that a woman should have small feet. So, in order to stop the foot
from growing to its full size, they use a foot binding technique. This is when
the foot is bonded and tied up to stunt its growth. Nairobi women inject
chicken feed into their gluteus maximums in order to receive Jennifer Lopez or
Beyonce-like curves, since being curvaceous is what beauty is to their society.
Brazilian women are getting Brazilian butt lifts to make their butts appear
larger. Many women in the US are becoming obsessed with having larger curves
and are doing a fat replacement procedure. This is when fat is taken from parts
of your body and placed in the desired region of which you want more fat, which
usually tends to be the butt or thigh area. Although all women are different
and posses different qualities, they all have one thing in common---and that is
the desire to be "Beautiful". The question however is if they want to
be beautiful through their own eyes or through society's?
