Why all this constant criticism of plastic surgery?

Tastes great.

Less filling.

*Proceeds to attack myself*


Oh wait...that last one was actually petty, pointless, and utterly stupid.

Nonetheless, and perhaps its because I've grown up in suburbia, Connecticut, but I've heard quite a few stories about silicon liquid poisoning, and none about silicon gel poisoning.

Heck, on that MTV True Life they even had someone who had suffered from the liquid poisoning since her body rejected it and made her extremely sickly.

As for the question that was actually posed in the thread, I am definitely not against girls that utilize cosmetic surgery.



I'm never ever ever ever ever gonna make a song about Sibbie...

I've known and gone out some very nice and nice looking transexuals. All had extensive plastic surgery. But the discussion here has been enlightening. Bothe Allanah and Vicki, two very beautiful girls with what I consider two different approaches to their own appearances, make it very clear that this is an extensive journey that should be respected. I'm sure many TS girls have been alerted to some great information, and others might want to think again before going down the road. It takes some emotional stability, as well as intelligence to get it right.

I'd like to hear from Vicki and Allanah about the adverse effects, in any, from drinking and drugs in regards to the pertnent procedures. Many girls I know are struggling with addictions or just plain abuse.

i for one have been very lucky that i have never had a drug or alcohol problem. those are horrible diseases that are so very hard to cure.

believe it or not, i have never experimented with drugs. i worked at night clubs for years, way before the adult stuff, and drugs were thrown in my face every night but i really never was interested. i was always focused on my career and never really liked to lose control. i drink on occassion, but i have a low tolerance so i do not over do it.
so many girls i know have problems with subdtances or party way too much.

i really dont know why so many girls get so caught up with drugs, but it all catches up with you. a lot of these young pretty girls you see now in five years will look blown out. and no its not from the ts life. its the drugs, the party, the abuse of hormomes (your liver can only take so much), and whatever constant reckless behaviour they indulge in.

i pride my self in the fact that as i get older, i look better. (just look at my pictures and you will see!). this is because i never did drugs, smoked, or stayed up for 4 days straight with no sleep (plus the use of surgery, silicone, botox, and every other cosmetic fix ;).

as fas as these behaviours combined with surgery, it does not take einstein to figure out it is not good. drugs and smoking thin your blood, ruin your immune system, and slow down the healing progress. before any plastic surgery you must stop smoking 2 weeks prior and after as well as avoid all recreational drugs, aspirin products, and limit alcohol.

i have heard of girls getting surgery and they are out to party or working 2 days later. that is plain stupid and ignorant. they say that sometimes youth brings on the belief of immortality. and i think since so many girls start out so young these days there is no one to guide them. they don't think of all that can go wrong and that bad things can happen to them. i started late ,at 20 yrs old, and that is why i spent a long time correcting all the messes the male puberty had done with surgery.
but i am glad that i started late- because i had a home life and and education and i was never forced to live a street life or misguided by some transsexual who was so bitter on life. i think that made all the difference with me personally.

life is hard no matter what. and i think for the most of us, men, women, ts-dissapointments always follow and things never really turn out as you thought they would. i just think the most important thing to do in life is always strive to be your best and always make it happen for yourself. throughout my life so many doors have been closed in my face. i could of very well easily turned to drugs after the 100th door closing. instead, what i simply do is when one door closes, i just go knock on the next one.

Translate "reads queens"? Sorry don't know the NYC lingo.

As far as the guy's question on drinking/drugs. I also have never taken real drugs. Not even 420... I even limit my caffeine intake. I definitely do like to drink (a lot) when I club which is pretty bad. It is my vice to be sure. However, if I am only drinking 1-2 nights a week, then ceste la vie. I dunno... Many girls I know don't drink on the left coast. I know other drugs are pretty rampant out there X, cola, etc... I can't really attribute degradation of appearance to this type of thing although I am sure it is possible. Without surgery, anyone will degrade in appearance as they age. Even then, unless your Zsa Zsa, it is infinitely a losing battle.

I was thinking of a comment earlier... I have two pictures of my non-artificially enhanced bootie on a rating site for female butts, both in the top 25 out of literally tens of thousands of pictures. I think there are certain exercise routines that can be utilized to produce feminine curves as well, esepcially if lipo is used in conjunction. it just takes harder work, more discipline, and a bit more time. "Boy dents" are overrated.
