What He Really Thinks Of Your Plastic Surgery

        In the article "What He Really Thinks Of Your Plastic Surgery" published in the Town & Country Vol.165,Feb2011 by Jamie Rosen is an article about how her future husband asked her to sign a prenuptial agreement.  Quoted from the article,"This prenup would be a promise: a promise to not get plastic surgery." This article was a little unusual because you don't hear about this all that often. The author writes "The romantic view is that when we fall in love with someone, we fall in love with every part of them, including the curve of their nose or the extra bit of fat around their belly. The idea of this person surgically altering themselves just seems wrong." Explaining that When we fall in love, we fall in love with our partners appearance. Once that is altered, it changes everything because that is not what you fell in love with to begin with which may affect your relationship. With research done, it shows "the overwhelming majority of plastic surgery is done on women (according to statistics from the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, women received eighty-nine percent of the 1.5 million procedures performed in 2009)" which doesn't surprise me because you mostly see it done on women. Although some may be against their significant other getting a procedure done, there are also many who don't mind it. Its all personal choice but once you commit to it, there is no possible way you can go back to the exact appearance you came into it with. 
        My opinion of the article is that I am with the idea that her husband had to the extent of promising to not get any plastic surgery work done but I wouldn't go to the extent that he did and put it into a marriage agreement. You truly do fall in love with the appearance you see and changing that overtime I feel would jeopardize a relationship. I myself would not want my wife to have a "fake" face or a body lift on any part of her body because I personally think that when I see famous women or just women who have had a plastic surgery procedures done on TV, I ask myself why they did that because most of the time it doesn't look very good and you can tell that they've had something altered to their body to change their appearance."Fake"women just don't look good. I cant imagine the regret some may have when they see it may have not turned out how they expected and knowing they cant go back. I would be interested to see a study done on how patients feel about the outcome of the surgeries. If they wish they hadn't done it or if they would consider doing it in a different area or refer friends or not. But as popular as it is, patients must be satisfied with it. My view on Plastic Surgery is that I wouldn't recommend it but if its not affecting me and my appearance that Im not going to tell others what they should and shouldn't do because they are going to have to live with their decisions.
