s/o speaking of men being shallow...

[ttt]

S/O of the "have you seen this bullshit" thread. 

So this woman is completely shallow and crazy and wants him to surgically alter his healthy body to meet her standards, but....she has an amazing body! So it's a really tough choice!

Dear Prudence,
My girlfriend has had countless cosmetic surgeries and recently she insisted I have a facelift. She was embarrassed by my “aged appearance” (we are both 37). I reluctantly agreed and spent thousands of dollars for the procedure. I was even (relatively) pleased with the results. Now my girlfriend has determined that one of my toes is “hideously crooked.” She wants it surgically corrected. I refuse to have what I consider another unnecessary surgery (the toe barely curves and I have had no pain or issues). My girlfriend is horrified that I will be out and about wearing flip-flops with my hideous toe for all to see. She told me I had a choice—her or the toe. When I told her I choose the toe, she agreed to stay if I only wear closed-toe shoes. Forever. I should mention that for 37 she has an amazing body. What do you think?

—Crooked Toe

Dear Crooked,
Of course your facelift turned out well—there was nothing to lift. Stay with this woman and I predict a future in which you end up like Michael Jackson, having to constantly wear a bandage on your nose because of all your botched surgeries. Your girlfriend may have a great body—she’s surely paid enough for it—but I’ll play doctor and suggest she may have Body Dysmorphic Disorder, and as regards her demands about you, let’s add BDD-by-proxy to her list of ailments. You know there’s nothing wrong with either your face or your toe, but something’s gone awry with your head. No matter the glory of your girlfriend’s cosmetic enhancements, she’s a nut who’s going to ruin your life. Think of the possibilities of what’s next: an earlobe trim, a scrotum tuck. I say put on your flip-flops with pride and tell her to take a hike.

WTF does that line even have to do with anything else he wrote?

Girlfriend has ISSUES. Major ones. That even banging such a hot body can't fix.

Because yes, she's off-the-deep-end-crazy but....she has a hot body! How are you supposed to choose between mental stability and a bangin' body???

Let me translate:

I'm dating this girl who looks super hot, and I've never really given a thought to her personality (otherwise I would have surely noticed her trying to cope with low self esteem and other issues through plastic surgery), cause ya know, she's pretty, like a fucking "9" and she's 37 years old!  But now she's making demands that actually impact my life in a significant way.  Should I stay with her and just deal cause she's super hot, or do you think I can find other arm candy with looks equal to hers who will not make weird demands of my feet?
