Reponse to Women and the Knife

I'm very much inclined to agree with Joyce on this, but I can't help but relate it back to an earlier point.  When we think of plastic surgery we almost exclusively think of women wanting to enhance their breasts.  This is, in fact, rarely the case.  Plastic surgery first came into existence primarily to help those disfigured by war.  Men were originally the recipients of plastic surgery.  To suggest, as I believe the article does, that women are the primary patients in plastic surgeries is very misleading.  Men often require plastic surgery, or desire it to look younger or more physically fit.  In many cases, their motives are the same as women's.  Why then, are women so vilified for undergoing cosmetic procedures?
