“Before you go alter body, do some research and find out how many women have major life-threatening complications from nose jobs. Ask about how many nose jobs gone terribly wrong, and if you thought your face was wrong before, look what happens after. The more we start augmenting our bodies, the more and more we start to look alike, then nobody is special anymore.” IfsLooksBodyHappensJobsFacesAsksGoneSpecialMajorsResearchNosesYour FaceThreateningComplication Author:Halle Berry

“Were we to still be circumcising the hood of the female clitoris, we would not have difficulty considering this a continuation of our tradition to keep girls sexually repressed. America's reflexive continuation of [male] circumcision-without-research reflects the continuation of our tradition to desensitize boys to feelings of pain, to prepare them to question the disposability of their bodies no more than they would question the disposability of their foreskins.” StillsFeelingsBodyPainAmericaGirlBoysResearchFemaleTraditionDifficultyMalesConsideringHoodSexuallyRepressedContinuationCircumcision Book:The Myth of Male Power: Why Men Are the Disposable Sex Source: The Myth of Male Power: Why Men Are the Disposable Sex
“We want to believe we are good, we are different, we are better, or we are superior. But this body of social-psychological research--and there are obviously many more experiments in addition to mine and Milgram's--shows that the majority of good, ordinary, normal people can be easily seduced, tempted, or initiated into behaving in ways that they say they never would.
