WARNING: Some nudity.
It's called BridalPlasty. Brides-to-be compete to win plastic surgery so they can be perfect for their wedding day. Yes, it's as bad as it sounds.

(7,875 posts)Of course there is no bottom, but this one comes as close to it as any have dared.
To me it is more shocking that there is an audience for this show than the fact that it was made.
More proof that we are doomed. The Romans had gladiatorial games, we watch pudgy women fight over plastic surgery. It's when you know the empire's in decline...

I sincerely wish we could get away with this fascination with some artificial and unobtainable definition of "beauty". Over-importance on the physical, nothing on the intellectual side.
And it's getting worse.

(3,056 posts)I have to ask. Why, oh why do the men these nut cases are engaged to go through with the wedding? If these women are too stupid to realize that the man they're marrying fell in love with THEM, not some idealized version of who they think they need to be, they don't deserve them. My unsolicited advice to those men is, run!! Get out while you can! If she's that bat-shit crazy now, it's not going to get any better.

(785 posts)This show, the Housewives of Whereever, Bridezilla, Mob Wives, the insipidly shallow Kardashians Klan, Bad Girl Club etc etc are all sending the message that it is OK, normal, even attractive for women to be vain, vindictive, selfish, hateful and narcissistic. Jerry Springer started this trend by trapping ignorant, violent and often physically hideous people on a public stage and poking them with sharp rhetorical sticks until they cracked and attacked someone. He was however an equal opportunity huckster who brought the carnival spotlight on both sick men and sick women. Now the trend is to just focus on attractive women who are willing to strut their psychopathy. The men in their lives are basically there to give the women someone to hurt and the audience someone to pity or scorn. This stuff is mainstream femdom pornography. But it sure as hell is popular these days.
