People be having plastic surgery all the time now. Itâs completely socially acceptable for someone to get fake boobs in our culture. There are a lot of grotesqueries about plastic surgery, but right now Iâm just going to focus on fake boobs. Girls who implant silicone or I forget the other type, into their bodies, big floating jelly sacks, right onto their chests, so that they look like they have bigger boobs. What the hell?! How did our culture get here? How did this become the world we live in, and when was it that it sounded like a good/rational idea in the first place? Some people justify it with a warm-fuzzy approach: if getting breast implants helps a girl with her self-esteem and confidence, then itâs a good thing. Talk about a SHORT CUT and yes, thatâs a PUN INTENDED. Come on. There are so many other ways to work on your self-esteem other than risking your life by going under and implanting some pretty silly stuff into your chest. Itâs just silly to me. And I donât think itâs because of the usual reason that I am a countercultural person by nature. Alas, I do believe we are heading to a culture where girls get their boobs for their 16th birthday as a regular rite of passage. For real. Thatâs where weâre headed, make no mistake about it. Unless the economy truly bottoms out or the environment really messes with our whole social infrastructure, fake boobs will become not just completely accepted as they are now, but the norm. You heard it here first on this online show. Now watch the funny video where I stuff my bra in Times Square! Talk about a grassroots experiment on a social issue. This is as budget as it GETS.
