Why is it that so many white women take plastic surgery?

You are obviously a white hater! You say it's not meant to be racist when you just made a statement that white people have always hated blacks? YOU ARE A RACIST! Let me tell you something I took in a homeless black person and I NEVER turned down a black person EVER when he was living on the street and needed some cash. I worked in big cities in poverty areas doing construction and if I had 2 dollars I would give away 1!

I don't stop there. I've sat and talked to homeless that were black encouraging them. You are as bad as any white racist!

FYI your question here IS NOT racist,but you accused whites of always have hated blacks because they responded to a racist black question! Black people hate whites more than whites hate blacks. Just look at how many supported Jeramiah Wright's racist speech!

why are the first two "answers" are racist? We don't know who the person is that posted this question ie white, black, etc. Stop with racist remarks. To answer your question SOME white women tend to age quicker the minorities. Focus on the word SOME not ALL, and I'm saying that so no one think I'm being racist. But there are SOME blacks that have plastic but you tend to see more whites in the media.

I blame all the womens magazines who write about all these treatments to help you keep young looking and writing about celebs who have had it done and lots of women and some men have aspirations to be like these people.

A lot of it is vanity and insecurity tied in with laziness and poor diet.

If people eat healthier and did exercise they would look a lot nicer and be healthier without needing to spend bucketloads of cash for a temporary fix.

Plastic surgery should not be an easy option, it should be only for medical reasons.

Love the body you live in and do not try to make yourself into the image of someone else.

Maybe they're the only ones with the guts to admit they're doing it. I know a lot of Black women who have had skin re-texturing done to even out their skin tone. I know two Chinese women who have had face lifts. And I know a Japanese girl who has had a nose job and had her eyes re-shaped. I also know a Filipino man who has had pectoral implants, and two Black men who have had calf implants.

Geez, it's trendy now, I think everyone is doing it. It ain't just old White women anymore!

Well, this white woman needed boobs. I never had em till I nursed, but then they kinda vanished to the point of perhaps concaving??ha. So, I got me a perky set of B's. My problem wasn't internal, it was EXTERNAL! I admit, alot of ladies do go overboard and end up looking like circus freaks tho.

WHITE women? Why only white.?? pshh.. I live in a place where there's only white people, and I don't know anyone who had plastic surgery!

I never knew people could "take" plastic surgery.

I would assume more white women can afford it, so you see it more. If plastic surgery was cheaper to get done, you'd see a lot more of everyone with it.

Barbie complex

technically, the word "orange" is more appropriate in this context...

it's like the peroxide hair and fake tan - a fruitless effort to look younger and more attractive. (fails miserably, in case you hadn't guessed)

edit: katy c - "Barbie complex", i like that!
