You are absolutely insane if you think that someone choosing to get plastic surgery or wearing prosthetic makeup for their Instagram account deserves a decade in prison. If your religion calls for that then your religion is fukking stupid

I'm not religious and the ball needs to start rolling somewhere.

It is like we look at the number of people who suffer from eating disorders and think "fukk it. Let's allow people to influence mutilation too."

My only issue with punishing the people encouraging self-mutilation is the lack of focus on people performing the act and people supplying the products. They need to be imprisoned too.

How does this cure eating disorders? People still have mirrors and have brains that are wired different this literally solves nothing but throw someone in jail that has a makeup hobby that you disapprove of

How about you start giving education and having conversations and not throwing people in prison for what they choose to do with their body? You are solving literally no problems but making people do their disorders that you want to end behind closed doors.

People get punished for smoking weed all the time but it didn't stop them from doing it lol.

So instead of spending money to help the person you think it's logical to spend money jailing the individual? :mjlol:

By removing unhealthy benchmarks.

The problem isn't people seeing their reflection in the mirror. They have an unhealthy and unrealistic image of what beauty is which is fueled by the media (fashion industry, celebrities, models and social media influencers).

It is not a problem when the image can be achieved by living a healthy life. When the image promoted is dependent on mutilation and starvation, it is irresponsible to allow it to continue.

How about you start giving education and having conversations and not throwing people in prison for what they choose to do with their body? You are solving literally no problems but making people do their disorders that you want to end behind closed doors.

Conversations are necessary too, but it is not helped by people seeing the opposite rewarded.

You just have to look at how people drool over these surgically enhanced women to realise that words alone will not be enough.

It is interesting that you bring up substance abuse.

Actions are required to stop promoting substance abuse. Outlawing the act itself won't do anything when the material people are exposed to promote the complete opposite.

Weed is one thing, but if I had my way people would be severely punished for promoting the use of hard drugs and violence.

It is at a point where I have zero patience for the sophistry surrounding what people should be free to say. I'm looking at the results and what it is doing to young an impressionable minds.

That said, I will concede on my initial position. Looking into this case, she is a young an impressionable mind herself.

Good.

She is the most extreme example but we need to stop playing dumb to the negative impact the build-a-thots are having on young minds.

They depict an unrealistic example of beauty which is causing more and more women to mutilate themselves.


You are an extremist if you really believe that. But I don't think you meant to say "good" about the punishment. I think maybe you just mean the principle of it. Theres many bad influences in this culture,you can't just draw the line at thots. And the question would be where would you draw the line.

That pretending to be a zombie was a depiction of beauty? :skip:
