It looks like medieval torture, from the metal rods inserted into sawn bones to the months of agonising recovery. But to some, travelling to Turkey to gain a few inches is a (very high) price worth paying

    I’m sorry, but women do on average mostly prefer taller men. This has been proven through multiple studies.

    Likewise, men prefer women with medium or large breasts vs small ones too on average.

    There’s some things in human nature that just are.

    What’s different about us is we can accept that we don’t have to accept the whims of biology as is and can have the self awareness to go against it or just accept what is and make best with what we have.

    Physical features aren’t everything, and successful relationships take more than that.

      You posted links and then gave your own misinterpretation of them.

      Are you under a delusion that you are the woman’s voice speaking on behalf of all women?

      I speak for me. I didn’t hire you.

      Let me know where I can send the pink slip cuz you’re fired from being my spokesperson.

      By the by you misinterpreted the studies you posted. That is you spreading misinformation.

        Good thing they don’t work for you.

        If you can’t stand facts, then create your own study to prove them wrong.
