Morning!
Today's posting is quite enjoyable to write, because after huge amounts of pondering meself, I think I'll be treating myself with some body improvements within the next month.
But you know something? From the research I've done online, plastic surgery for women is far far FAR more social acceptable than for men!
Which ended up fascinating me bigtime…which then caused some more exploration online, which then smacked me upside the head with the realization, wow, can I *ever* write a tremendous blog post about this!
So without any further ado, let us deftly dive into:
———————————-
No.
no.
NO!
And I'm *not* talking about, ahem:
- Lengthening the miraculous magic wand!
- Beefing up the stupendous salami!
- Taming the ferocious trouser snake!
No, instead, I'm talking about plastic surgery for men.
Did you know such things exist?
I sure didn't until I watched a National Geographic episode….like this.
or this.
or this….
In other words, I'm talking about enhancing the other 99% of the male body!
And with today's shallow focus on the body beautiful, it really does make sense. Consider these articles:
- Cosmetic surgery boosted as more men go for 'moob jobs'
- Going under the knife to land a job
- Plastic Surgery Makes the Man? Maybe Not
- Why ARE so many men going under the knife?
Now, I have my own personal reasons as to why I'm considering the above options; they include:
- My lower body will continue to degrade, so might as well fix my upper body!
- It would be nice to see my breasts *not* act as water dowsers
- My inner spirit is in its 30s, it would be nifty if my outer covering looked the same!
And to be quite honest, at my age, I've earned the right to do whatever I damned well please.
That's appealing to me too.
But back to men!
Seeing the Discovery or National Geographic or maybe it was Taboo? series about male surgical procedures (in this case, it discussed a Florida Beach….Bunny….no, it was a guy…hmmmm….a Florida Beach….Bear? …. no, he wasn't hairy….a Florida Beach….Bobby!
Yes! That's the ticket!
A Florida Beach Bobby!
This Florida Beach Bobby was talking about how at his age (early 30s), he has 'way more competition in looking good on the beach, so he wanted shapelier buttocks.
And my first reaction was, HAH! How vain!
Until I thought about it.
Who the hell am I … to deride … what someone else considers crucial to *their* own happiness?
Talk about an epiphany.
Why should plastic surgery be acceptable to me and not to the male gender?
Answer: it shouldn't. What's good for the goose is good for the gander!
But more importantly….
Unless I personally walk in someone else's shoes, I have no right … whatsoever … to make an impacting judgment on that person.
None.
Zero.
Zip!
So let's now get to the real, ahem, meat of this article:
What Large Naked Male Enhancements Reveal About Socially Unacceptable Cravings
If a man craves a large shapely buttocks or a smaller, tighter chest or bigger calves or huger biceps or whatever…you never do know what's truly causing that desire.
Sure, you can…..make assumptions.
Like everyone already does about women who have plastic surgery too!
But chances are…their wishes stem from something a bit more deep and personal than just "looking good."
It could delve into:
- Self-confidence
- Competing with the younger generation for a job
- Fixing their problem spots after 30 years of catering to their spouse/family
- Beefing up for weight lifting competitions
- Reliving their youth
And you know something?
There's nothing wrong with:
- Feeling more self-confidence because your outer packaging reflects your inner spirit
- Grabbing that job because your interviewer thought you were younger
- Giving yourself permission to do something….for yourself for once.
- Reliving your youth by physically looking younger
You see:
Nobody…but nobody….has the right to denigrate someone else's choices about their own body.
That means….
Nobody.
So the next time you see peoples making lifestyle changes of which you do not approve, take a huuuuuge step back and tell yourself:
"I do *not* know all the details. Therefore…I will *not* judge."
What do you think?
Grow strong,

Absolutely right… they have the right to do whatever they need to do to be happy with themselves. Although facial piercings sporting a half-pound of hardware do leave me wondering “What were they thinking!?!” But I keep those thoughts to myself.
Just be careful Barb! Stay away from surgeons who play the elevator music version of Mack the Knife in their waiting room.

Owies! Willl do.
Barbara,
It is a really interesting state of affairs we have gotten ourselves in. The attention to the body has really gotten out of control. It is big money! that is for sure.
The good thing is, especially in this country, the care of the body is much easier than it use to be.
