and - just to stoke a fire - there are people who believe they shouldn't have legs and desperately want them removed, but we don't allow it.

is a full-scale sex change all that different?

How can you even compare those two things? Also, women shouldn't get reconstructive surgery after breast cancer if they want it? - Trish Jun 11, 15:04 7
- what i was trying to say is i like the idealogy of 'be happy with who you are' - Guy Jun 11, 15:08 5
  - ...except for tatoos. - musubi Jun 11, 15:10 4
    - oh jeebus h musubi. i didnt get the effin tattoo to make myself feel better or more complete. how can you not see the difference? -- nm - Guy Jun 11, 15:12 3
      - Then why did you get it?? Bored that day with nothing to do? - Trish Jun 11, 15:18
      - Lost a bet? -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jun 11, 15:15
      - It's obviously not made you happier, mr grouchypants. (nm) - musubi Jun 11, 15:14
- Only if they want a cockneck. -- nm - Spawn Jun 11, 15:05
Personally? I am too, at a high level. But I'm trying not to judge others, as I don't know their experience -- nm - ty97 Jun 11, 15:03 1

Exactly. And tats? No way. - Spawn Jun 11, 14:58 11
- haha. touche. but if you're going to stretch it that far, it would include cutting your own hair, shaving, etc -- nm - Guy Jun 11, 15:00 9
  - not really -- nm - ty97 Jun 11, 15:06
  - Hardly. Tattoos are a permenent change. -- nm - Spawn Jun 11, 15:02 7
    - IMHO, tattoos (discounting extreme examples) aren't changing you. getting a nose job is. - Guy Jun 11, 15:19 5
      - What the hell?! A tattoo is making a permanant change to the largest organ of your body. - Trish Jun 11, 15:23
      - Look at it this way. How many people have you seen in the last month with a nose job vs people with tats? -- nm - Spawn Jun 11, 15:22 1
        
        I'd consider tattoos to be more of an identification than an enhancement. - Guy Jun 11, 15:26
      - They are changing you. They change how you look every bit as much as plastic surgery. -- nm - the liioulu without m&ms Jun 11, 15:20 1
        
        Even more so. -- nm - Spawn Jun 11, 15:21
    - Curse you, logic! (nm) - Guy, shaking fist in the air Jun 11, 15:08
- Burn. (nm) - musubi Jun 11, 15:00
