You are so right. I remember in highschool I had a friend who was dominican. She was naturally curvy and had a big butt. And she would get teased and called "cow butt". Even by some of the guys. That was 20 years ago. And now her body is considered to be the "ideal" body of today. Women are running to surgeons to get a big behind. SMH. We women should love and take care of the body God gave us. Just workout and live a healthy lifestyle.

I used to do bottle service and all the girls had procedures I was the only natural one and they’d look at me with disgust and urged me to get procedures even asking to take me to their surgeon. I come from a family that doesn’t encourage surgeries that aren’t medically needed. I’m thankful I stayed true to myself even under pressure. Women are under immense pressure to look a certain way. Whether you get the surgery or not you are judged. Love yourself ladies! You are enough! ***Edit*** No one touches u in bottle service. U have as much access to a bottle girl as u do any server in a restaurant. If u touch a girl u get thrown out. U already bought the bottle and a girl doesn’t need ur tip that bad. We had huge bouncers everywhere. Society and culture pressure women. ALL AROUND THE WORLD people have something to say abt womens bodies Just walking down the block multiple ppl harass women or have something to say abt their body. ANYWHERE in the world this is the reality as a woman. And if u think men don’t pressure women ur delusional. I’ve had weirdos ask me if they could pay for a cosmetic procedure which I always declined. Now I’m happily married to someone that’s not shallow or superficial and realizes we will age and die and wants to grow old together.

They explained the dangers of getting back alley bigger butts but they didn’t explain the REAL danger of even BBL’s done by professional doctors. So I will……. The glutes have A LOT of tiny veins that most of us don’t know about but trust me they are there. So even when fat is transferred correctly there’s ALWAYS a risk of the fact getting into these small veins and traveling to other places. DANGEROUS places…. Causing death. That was the short but accurate reality of BBL’s even those done by the best.

[@junemai8036]

Well the fat is added inbetween your already existing fat.. with the vein beign closer to the skin, its rare this happens... how ever most bbls are done with ultrasound so doctors can see exactly where the fat is going.. to avoid going below the muscle or too close to the skin

[@junemai8036]

Howevet, without ultrasound tho doctors dont go close to skin and know where the muscle ia located by how the machine moves in and out the butt

It’s the most dangerous plastic surgery and I hear if they accidentally inject into a vein in your butt you can die immediately on the table.

Well, crazy glue was invented by a military contractor to replace stitches and bandages for soldiers in combat.

[@philtmonx1446]

Haha I just came to comments to mention CA glue was developed as field sutures by Israeli army! Figured only I found that part amusing that that was the concern or issue w the procedure

[@MultiEquations]

I think the issue is that the crazy glue/skin adhesive used isn't sterile for black market providers.

[@ObiAmajoyiSrMD]

Yea despite not knowing that crazy glue that he created is toxic to open wounds and carries with it an increased risk of skin necrosis, soft tissue necrosis, and infection. If he were a little smarter, he would have moved just a couple of carbon and hydrogen molecules around and created what he really wanted to create, which is called DERMABOND. It reminds me that the folks who designed viagra did so to be used as a blood pressure medication. It’s current use is more of an unintended side effect

If you’re absolutely going to get a BBL. Make sure 1.) it’s within the US 2.) the doctor has NO deaths 3.) they do the surgery in an actual hospital 4.) they do at most, two surgeries a day 5.) you follow surgery pages first 6.) they can properly explain how the BBL is to be done 7.) they have a Facebook group

It’s not the Kardashian’s fault if someone decides to get a BBL. Grown women make grown decisions. If you as an adult choose something, you are responsible for the consequences, not a celebrity. They may have helped popularize this, but they don’t control what other women do. If the other girls get BBLs, they are getting them because they want them, and there is nothing wrong with that. Also, I don’t foresee this trend dying out.

@@r.3559 they didn’t start BBLs. Those have been around for a while and were started by a Brazilian cosmetic surgeon in 1960. Also, they aren’t selling a lie. Everyone knows they had work did, and clearly it worked for them. How is that a lie? And how are they making money off of other women choosing to go get these procedures? Are the surgeons giving them a commission? If people die from these procedures, that’s tragic, but it isn’t the fault of the Kardashians. Just because someone is famous doesn’t mean they are responsible for the choices other people make or the society in which they are also reared in.
