Entry 2 - the idea of 'black' self-hate TBC

I hear time and time again that black women who seek to change themselves and 'alter' their features are self hating individuals. I beg to challenge that notion that plastic surgery is not self hate but a form of self love. From the pictures, the individuals who change their noses and bodies are not trying to get a 'white' nose but rather have a NOSE they see that fits their face! Besides the exception of Micheal Jackson or Lil Kim, there are few celebs I can name have 'gone too far' with rhinoplasties. Nevertheless, I'm not here to say that everyone who goes for cosmetic enhancements does so for the right reasons but I'm here to say that I personally am chosing to do it for the right reasons. I want my nose to fit my face, I percieve my nose as too big for my face. I also want liposuction on my stomach and inner thighs because I have over the years lost a total of about 40lbs and see it as a perfect reward to cut away the remaining saggy fat and skin that refuses to go away with exercise. I'm young and it is the time to do this for myself confidence and also to find a mate. This is blog is set up to encourage black women to do whatever is necessary to feel better.

For example: this bw has a smaller nose, it isn't more 'western' it just fits her face proportionally better

This is the wonderful resource and hope to have him as my doctor!

Entry 1 - my nose

I never had a problem with my nose until over the last few years someone pointed out that I had a big nose. Of late as I began to work out and start feeling good about myself did I realize that my nose had no bridge and it looked hideously attractive. Men and women had always said i was attractive but I think if my nose was significantly reduced I would look and feel better about myself. I'm usually a very confident person but like all other people I see a few things I would like to change. I created this blog as inspiration and also to get financial support in my journey to get the procedures I so desire.

This picture is of the nose that I highly desire. This woman's nose is PERFECT. Infact I want this man to be my surgeon.
