I'm a little saddened by the lengths that people will go to in order to look younger, and the thought that this behavior will become the norm. Having a toxin injected into your face to temporarily paralyze muscles just seems like a poor response to aging. The marketing is primarily slanted toward aging women, which reflects the attitude that a large part of women's value is in their appearance.
ReplyDeleteI'm very saddened too. I believe that women should embrace age, wisdom, and even wrinkles!
ReplyDeleteI could never do this, it is just very scary to me to poke holes in my face or in any part of my body for that matter just to "look younger". It actually kills the cells in the part of your body doesn't it, why would you want to do this?....I understand if an older woman who just wants to feel beautiful or younger would WANT to do it but some one who is young ...why?...but anyway I am sacred to even get my flu shot so I would be terribly scared to even consider gatting this done.
