Bridalplasty

I have never heard of the show Bridalplasty, but i just watched some clips and previews for the show and I have to say that the concept is completely ridiculous. It making women believe that they have to go to extremes to be considered beautiful on their wedding day. Why would women want to change themselve so drasctically? Obviously their fiances like them for who they are since they asked them to marry them in the first place. Although I'm against this show, I have to admit that I was sucked into the show Extreme Makeover when it was on tv a few years ago. I think these shows are not trying to show awareness about plastic surgery, I think they are for purely for entertainment purposes. They also glamorize plastic surgeries that attempt to make women look younger and more vibrant. They are persuading people to put their lives in danger for silly little flaws. Sure i agree with plastic surgery for some things, for example if you broke your nose and have to get a nose job to fix it and stuff like that.

I agree with you completely where you say that plastic surgery shows are purely for entertainment value. There is no other reason shows like this would exist. It is unfair to make women watching these shows feel like they have to get plastic surgery to fit society's standard of beautiful. I actually think its sad that the women on this show are going through so much to get plastic surgery when they already have someone who loves them for who they are. What does this say about society? There's something wrong with this.

I agree with you said the concept of Bridalplasty is ridiculous. I don't understand why these women go to great lengths to make sure they are perfect in theur wedding day. These types of shows make women feel they need to go overboard with the plastic surgeries so they can fit into society.
