• Vaginal Plastic Surgery “Female Circumcision” A.K.A "Perfect Vaginas?"

[quote=Source]The increasingly popular practice of surgically reshaping the female genitalia in order to create the “perfect vagina” has come under sharp criticism by medical experts, who claim the practice is akin to female genital mutilation and has little medical necessity. The procedure, known as labioplasty, usually involves surgically reshaping or cutting off parts of the labia majora, the folds of skin surrounding the vagina. Reportedly most operations are undertaken for aesthetic reasons, but medical reasons include discomfort caused by an excessively overdeveloped labia, with costs in the region of $5,000. Possible complications include loss of sensation, scarring, and the usual risks of infection and botched operations. A variety of studies have criticised the practice, with the latest research published by the British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology damning the procedure as largely unnecessary and poorly understood. The study criticised the procedure as being an unnecessary one with demand fuelled by plastic surgeons’ own advertising, and questioned the underlying notion that there is a “correct” aesthetic for the vagina: “Advertisements promote labial surgery as easy answers to women’s insecurities about their genital appearances – insecurities that are fuelled by the very advertisements that prescribe a homogenised, pre-pubescent genital appearance standard for all women.” Such “standards of beauty” for something so intimate as the female vagina are, particularly in the relatively modest nations of Europe and America, likely to be based almost exclusively on the genital appearance of performers in pornography, hardly providing a broad cross-section of female anatomical variation. The fact that many of these performers have actually had the surgery further increases the risk that an unrealistic aesthetic is being promoted as desirable. They also questioned the medical justification for such surgery, saying supposed pain from a protruding labia may well be psychosomatic, and pointing out that male genitalia has similar sensitivity whilst protruding far further – in such cases therapy might be more effective, they say. The researchers even go so far as to note certain similarities between labioplasty and female genital mutilation, where the labia and/or clitoris are cut off, a practice endemic in certain Islamic nations, saying the procedure may permanently damage sexual sensitivity and cause complications in childbirth. The study concludes by questioning the wisdom of cutting off the most sensitive parts of the female body for purely cosmetic reasons: “Labial surgery needs to be rigorously evaluated in future, and for longer term. Furthermore, quality research is needed to improve our understanding of the psychological drivers behind women’s decision to sacrifice sexually sensitive tissue that contributes to erotic experiences, for a certain genital appearance that used to be an obligation only for some glamour models.” Just how many women are undergoing such surgery is not known, but numbers are thought to be increasing “exponentially.” Naturally, plastic surgeons offering the procedure insist there are no possible long-term problems worth “terrorising” customers over, and everyone can now enjoy an “elegant” labia: “They’ve gone a bit over the top. Essentially this is just about removing a bit of loose flesh, leaving behind an elegant-looking labia with minimum scarring. The procedure won’t interfere with sexual function. Women want this for a number of reasons – some find it uncomfortable to ride a bike for instance, but for the majority it is aesthetic, that’s true. Lads’ mags are looked at by girlfriends, and make them think more about the way they look. We live in times where we are much more open about our bodies – and changing them – and labioplasty is simply a part of this.”[/quote] Latest Research: [url]http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/8352711.stm[/url] Note: Thread title is mostly from informative article located here: [url]http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2009/11/14/vaginal-plastic-surgery-female-circumcision/[/url]

Fucking christ. Low self esteem and too much money is not a good combination.
It's already hard to please women, after this...
Women are so fucking obsessed with perfection. This shit doesn't even make them anymore attractive. Fake boobs are ugly.
I guess this getting widespread could put men in a [B][I]clit[/I][/B] of a pickle.

If my gf ever thinks about getting one of this surgeries, I'm dumping her. I want a _Real_ woman, not a mixed sack of meat, bone, botox, silicone and god knows what else...
What was wrong with the last ones?

Any picture of what the "perfect" vagina looks like?
[QUOTE=Edthefirst;18355584]Too bad it is a real turnoff if they aren't enjoying it.[/QUOTE] maybe for you

Who the hell looks at it anyway, excepting an occasional glance from a male/lesbian fan of oral. It's pretty sad that they find their labia's size important.
.. D: Why would you do that? Sounds painful as hell. I like my vagina the way it is, thank you very much.
[QUOTE=l Divinity l;18356818][IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6e/Shavevulva.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] I am totally for these new 'perfect' vaginas. It looks good and is voluntary which means no one is forcing it on the participants, what's the problem?
So it removes the Arby beef curtains?
$5,000? Thats pretty cheap for a totally new surgery. Hmmm... I wonder why other surgeries are so expensive?

My girlfriend's looks pretty nice, but I don't think I'd care if it didn't.
[QUOTE=Agent_Wesker;18358718]Reminds me of male circumcision, except nobody goes crazy over that do they?[/QUOTE] Except this doesn't make a difference besides being more "perfect". I never understood why you would feel like flaunting around some flab of flesh anyway, most people choice if you are going to have it for you anyway.
[QUOTE=demoguy08;18354558]Low self esteem and too much money is not a good combination.[/QUOTE] The words of wisdom, thou shalt they be remembered.

The reason male circumcision is done is because people think it "looks better" and some people are uncomfortable with the foreskin. They both share the same possible complications, sensitivity loss, scarring and botched operations (common). Unless you are being circumcised for a medical emergency, there is no benefit.
[QUOTE=The golden;18359510]If this is for "perfect" sex, then it's pretty fucking useless. The male penis is like binary, it's either 0 or it's 1. It's either receiving pleasure, or it's not. It cannot feel precisely and accurately like our fingers, that's not it's job. So really, unless you break out little cameras, this is pretty useless.[/QUOTE] That made no sense whatsoever.
