Deep dives

Plastic surgery and evolutionary adaptation

Plastic surgery, particularly breast implants and butt implants, can be seen as an attempt to prolong attractiveness and maintain social status. While women may seek breast implants to please men, there are also cases of lesbians opting for breast implants. Plastic surgery has created an extended period of maidenhood throughout the entire lifespan, where being hot and desirable is emphasized. However, calling it an evolutionary adaptation is debatable, as modern plastic surgery often alters appearance in unrealistic ways.
