POST NUMBER 15838 (dont tell me someone else ffound it first)Ahem, BULLSHIT.
Everyone who's posted on this topic knows I'm mainly correct. The thing is, its an ugly truth that most plastic critics offer these high minded social/political reasons, but in fact simply dislike the perfect body image that society holds as a standard. They call the Holloywood body unhealthy. They rip on LFB. They rip on the thin, they rip on the altered, they rip on those with trainers. And when confronted with the fact that most of them are ripping because of insecurity, they hide behind the facade of "These plastic people are sad." I know a bullshit argument when I see one, and your argument, my dears, is mostly horseshit.
What you are all doing is trying to disprove a largely truthful proposition that you find distasteful and upsetting. Rather than say "Hey, SD, we know you're largely correct, but its a foul truth you offer, so we'd rather not hear it," you all scramble for the wildest Rube Goldberg argument you can strap together to support your position.
Its a hell of a lot more comforting to deny that a position you dislike might be largely correct than it is to admit it and move on.
Say whatever you like. This argument ain't about society at large, McMansions, feminist politics, morals, etc.
As i said, I ain't 100% correct, but not one of you will even admite that I'm pretty much correct, despite the fact that you all know very goddamn well that I am. This is a really funny board.
