Although the status of women did not decline the brutal and evil ways of their husbands made life unbearable. Women still lost their job rights, were having their feet binded, and the religion was still Confucian. From the beginning of the Tang dynasty all the way down to the Song dynasty there was a major decline in the status of women; especially in religion, customs, and jobs. In the beginning, women had plenty of rights because the Buddhist belief system allowed women to have many rights but once the Song dynasty came in all that changed when the rulers changed the religion to a Confucian based system. Also, women were able to obtain high jobs such as an empress but toward the end of the Song dynasty few women had jobs because of their lack of education.
However, plastic surgery can be a good thing for people who really have a medical reason to undergo those procedures. Changing one’s appearance based on society’s pressure is not necessary. Transition, connect this paragraph’s support to the thesis=topic sentence People, who undergo cosmetic procedures just because they think they have to,becauseother people had it done and because they think they have to keep up, are most likely not satisfied with the outcome. Cloud (2009) puts this statement to the test by saying that cosmetic surgery does not always make the person feel better. His article also points out that through different studies concluded in different countries, that women who get breast implants commit suicide at a much higher rate than women without those procedures, even so you(can’t use “you”) could say that women who undergo those procedures are already depressed to a certain level before the procedure.
For this reason, cosmetic surgery is not worth the risks because of the consequences such as possible infections, complications or even death can come easily after a cosmetic surgery. First, to avoid all unnecessary risks before the willful selection of the beauty procedure to undergo surgery, it is significant to know who the surgeon that will proceed to operate is. Because there are many medical assistants that want to feel like doctors or have their independent “office” and have learnt from them, in cosmetics it’s even easier to get a
My theory also is that eventually people will start bidding on artificial organs and the richer people will have say over a family that doesn't have a lot of money. If doctors wanted to replace original organs with artificial ones, it would take a lot of perfecting and obligating a clean bill of health for the patient. Who, if anyone, should be a prime candidate for these types of artificial/synthetic replacements? Do you feel that anyone should have access to them? Even a life-long smoker or alcoholic who knowingly subjected themselves to harmful substances?
And if your natural body type is so far from that, well then hurry and change yourself with thousands of dollars in cosmetic surgery. Why can’t people be accepted for who they are? When asked why they would buy her breast implants their response was, “We want to put her in the best possible confidence in order to present herself in the best possible light on a national stage." The best
For instance, some of the celebrities such as Goldie Hawn and Greta Van Susteren may look astonishing for their age, but what the media fails to portray is the fact that their natural, youthful appearance is anything but natural at all. According to Bordo, she points out that Susan Surandon looked older in Thelma and Louise than she does in her movies today. Cosmetic surgery has been a known yet hidden secret of celebrities for years. Nevertheless, Bordo clarifies that cosmetic procedures are becoming a common procedure for many non-celebrities today who wish to prolong or create unblemished looks. She tries to get this point across by stating that "Aging beautifully used to mean wearing one's years with style, confidence, and vitality.
The Media and its Effect In Our Lives. Although Virginial L. Blom and Sharlene Nagy Hasse-Biber approach the same issue body image, among teenagers and adults worldwide each author identifies a different connection between the media and Bulimia Nervosa worldwide. In her essay “Love my neighbors, hate myself: the vicissitudes of affect in cosmetic surgery.” Bloom explores how plastic surgery has changed through the years. She mentions how plastic surgery wasn’t practiced unless it was a critical and necessary procedure. Today, plastic surgery has become in high demand among males and females, teenagers in order to look their physically best.
14 Feb. 2009. 2 June 2009 This source discusses the topic of children beauty pageants. Young girls are exploited in beauty pageants and are placed under harsh conditions. They must receive a total body makeover and spend hours preparing when they should be out enjoying their childhood. This source was one of my favorites because it proves so much information that backs up my idea on child pageant; I am going to refer to this source later on.
It can shrink you to half your size, add bust past the point of a padded bra, and enlarge your lips as if you had surgery, make your entire face look pore free. Cindy Crawford was once quoted saying "I wish I looked like Cindy Crawford" indicating the amount of Photoshop her pictures went through before shown to the general public. A super model is now no longer perfect, and already difficult physical perceptions of beauty are now impossible to obtain. They begin to fixate on something that they dislike about themselves "If she looks like that, then I can too." For instance if a woman doesn't like her stomach, she can exercise and diet to try to flatten it.
