*FIRST* - A clarification that needs to be made. This is not about ALL women. There is nothing wrong at all with cosmetic surgery. I am going to try to point out some logical thinking flaws in JW sisters and brothers. I am not against cosmetic surgery.
In the hall we belonged to for several years, there were at least eight sisters with breast implants. There were about the same number who had other types of cosmetic surgery. In the hall prior to that, there were several breast implant sisters and several facelift sisters. Of the ones who had the cosmetic surgery I mentioned, about half were elders wives. Elder wife... Not a big deal to me. I don't mention it because it makes me shudder that an elderette had fake breasts, I mention it because its a family decision and they should be spiritually mature. Their husbands should be looking at the big picture regarding "how close we are to the end".
One of the primary sisters who stopped by all the time and gave us a very hard time about our Turbo Fade was an older sister who also showed off her second facelift and lip work when she popped in. She said, "Oh the new light in the watchtower is so exciting, it's all we talk about in service. Have you seen it? We are SOOOOOO close to the end!". Really? So close that you had to go spend thousands on a superficial and frivolous facelift? Mmmmkay.
And the boob jobs. The end is just around the corner. We are on the threshold of the threshold of Armageddon. We have one foot through the door to the new system. We are in the final seconds of this old system. The end could come any day now. So hurry out and get breast implants everyone. How on earth could you serve these final months without the larger breasts you've always wanted. Thousands of dollars on something that would be truly pointless in paradise? Sure! That makes sense.
If paradise were real, then either a new order doctor would have to perform surgery in 50 or 75 years to remove these leaking implants or Jehovah would have to perform a miracle and put you back the way your genes said you should be. It's so stupid, vain, and pointless for a truly spiritual sister to do! I mean JWs are discouraged from getting new houses or fancy cars because they are not a priority with the end so near. But, fake breasts? The sisters can't wait.
Okay, reminder about this post. I don't find anything wrong with cosmetic surgery. It's any persons private choice. But, I don't get it with regards to JW women.
