Feminism 0, / Women’s Worth Judged by Looks 36 EEE. Years ago when Sarah Burge started
her plastic surgery odyssey, we watched in fascination as she vowed to transform herself into a walking, talking Barbie Doll, with the life-size version of the dolls’ impossible measurements. She has very nearly succeeded and is ready to pass the legacy on to daughter Poppy, an eager pupil. According to mom, Poppy ‘begs for plastic surgery.’ We’ve come such a ‘long way baby’ to slip right back through the key hole of time.
Those of us who are hopelessly not ‘with it’ are unaware that 6 and
7-year-old girls aren’t into Cinderella and Snow White, but instead prefer pole dancing lessons, boob jobs, and a handy liposuction certificate tucked inside a Christmas Card, much like people on lesser budgets (who could perhaps use lipo) might tuck a Cinnabon voucher into a gifting card!
A good mother invests in her child’s future. Burge wants people to know that her investment in Poppy’s future is ‘like saving money for her education.’ How can you argue with logic like that?
