 | If it was 'in the past' then not worth worrying about it as it has already happened. If they wanted to have plastic surgery while we were dating, thats different. |

| Don't care too much about the past! Past is the past tense. Cherish your moments together! |

| Does it matter? If so, why? |

| Of course it matters. It speaks volumes about someone's character if they have had cosmetic surgery. If someone is disfigured in some way, then cosmetic surgery can be very important. However, for people who are within the normal parameters of appearance then to have cosmetic surgery shows worrying signs of vanity and insecurity. I like living in China because I consider the people here to be very organic. They don't try to be like others, only themselves. Fame is not glamourised in China to the same extent it is in the US or UK, which is a breath of fresh air. Girls here don't model themselves on others, they don't have hair extensions, or wear much make up (if any). I find that much more attractive than your typical "Dolly" from the USA with her fake white teeth, silicon breasts, and bleeched blonde hair. I find Chinese people have more organic characters as a result too. I haven't met anyone here who has developed an attitude because it is seen to be cool by others (although I am sure they exist somewhere). Chinese people are far more individual than the clones of the west. Long may it last. |

| Yes you are correct, and this is one of the many sad sides of China becoming westernised. |

| GUESTJASON | hm.. more and more foreigners stay in china and bring cultural shock china is becoming globalized soon..not westernised only |

| Hmm... foreigners who stay in China are the ones making China westernized? Never thought about that before but... interesting. ;-) I agree about the plastic surgery. Seems like it is the craze in China lately. A lot are opting for double eyelid surgery. Curiously, China hosted the Miss Plastic Surgery: http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/ Nip and Tuck on Holiday in China: http://www.chinasnippets.com/ Chinese women want faces shaped like 'goose eggs' Tue, Sep 25, 2007 AFP BEIJING, Sept 25, 2007 (AFP) - Chinese women, who are having cosmetic surgery in ever larger numbers, are especially keen to get faces shaped like "goose eggs," state media said Tuesday. Thirty-three percent of Chinese women who go under the knife do it to improve the contours of their faces, and among these, a large number are going for the "egg look," the China Daily reported, citing a recent survey. An oval face similar in shape to that of a goose egg has long been considered attractive in Chinese society. Surgery that supposedly makes eyes look more Western was a close second, favoured by 29 percent, the paper said, citing a poll conducted by Horizon Research Consultancy Group of 1,600 people aged 18 to 55. Overall, the Caucasian look is extremely popular among Chinese women, characterised by the paper as "leggy, busty and skinny." Many women also want breast implants to please their boyfriends and husbands, although the survey suggested their partners actually do not like it, according to the paper. Cosmetic surgery is immensely popular in China with about one million operations carried out every year, the paper said. |
