Talking Point: Vanity and the Knife
Created | Updated Nov 28, 2008
In a perfect world we'd all be beautiful, or would we? Wouldn't the world be a boring place if we all had pert little noses and perfect boobs or pecs?
So why is plastic surgery so popular? Should we try to change our god-given features? Are we all too vain?
Tell us what you think.
- Are supermodels too thin?
- Is there an idealised view of beauty?
- When does the need for plastic surgery become an obsession?
- Under what circumstances is it acceptable to go under the knife?
- Is personality really more important than first impressions?
- What can we do to avoid going under the surgeon's blade?
- What would you have done?
- Why are some people so vain?
You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you, don't you, don't you? ...
