    this is all so sexist. in these days of equal opportunity--why shouldnt the brothers have breast augmentation too? i'm sure there are many men in the organisation that would look so much better with bigger tits.

    the one thing that needs to be bigger - the BRAIN - cannot be enhanced surgically. Too bad!

    With the way sisters are treated in the organization, to be seen and not heard, many sisters probably feel their appearance is all that they have. Their sex appeal is their power and as they age, they lose this power. For an elders wife it is probably worse, hubby gone all the time dealing with problems and she would love to have some of the attention he is lavishing on the problem people and the congregation. She tries to get some of his time by sexing herself up.

    The same applies to rhinoplasty. Many people who have it, have serious sinus problems for the rest of their life.

    Lipo? Another life-threatening procedure.

    hmmm

    bluesbrother: I suspect the US is quite different to the UK when it comes to cosmetic surgery. Certain places in the US are probably very different than others too.

    A young sister, who married her husband after about 3 months (but both their families were from Mediterranean backgrounds, so that's OK) had breast enhancement surgery after about a year.

    Her husband, a giant d**k at the best of times, ACTUALLY said this:

    "I finally feel like I've married a real woman"

    I asked her when she thought she would feel like she'd married a real man. OK, I didn't, but I thought that about 3 minutes after...

    This was in the UK.

    In the same hall there was a sister who had had breast and, erm, posterior enhancement surgery. But at least that was supposed to be a secret...
