Dr. 90210

Plastic surgery is a person's way of looking like someone else and changing what God gave them. Many people think that looks mean everything and that they need to change how they look or they will not be accepted and well liked. Everyone wants to look good and thinks that with looks comes success. Well, the solution to those people's problems is plastic surgery. The show on TV called Dr. 90210 is all about how humans want to alter how they look because they are not satisfied. Plastic Surgery is similar to Barbie Doll by Marge Piercy because the girl in Barbie Doll wants to change how she looks and wishes she was like a Barbie so it would be very easy to look different. However, she is not Barbie and is not able to change how she looks and ends up dying. Plastic Surgery could be the solution to her problems or actually be the cause of her death. Plastic Surgery can get addicting and in the end may change how you look entirely just like Heidi Montag and when someone undergoes such a vast operation they may as well be dead because they no longer look like how they did before.

  1. I like your connection between plastic surgery and the poem Barbie Doll. Plastic surgery is for the purpose of people trying to alter themselves so that that they can be accepted, and that fits perfectly with Barbie Doll. In both, someone is trying to conform to a norm or ideal of what they think is the perfect look.
