I wish plastic surgery for men was more normalized! Most men never think at all about cosmetic procedures as an option, but you can just go *make your jawline stronger* if you want to. I feel like there's relatively low hanging fruit for strong quality of life increases.

a nice sentiment that privileges those who are born beautiful

PS is also a privilege to those that can afford it. Basically if you’re poor and ugly you’re out of luck

Some procedures are affordable even if you're not rich, like I know one girl who makes shit money and lives with a ton of roommates and she scrounged to get a nosejob but I agree it does also favor those with money

The eternal struggle between aiming for ideals (no uniform beauty standard, so no dis/advantage from beauty) and between pragmatic/incremental progress

this makes sense but given the price and politics of it most men who do it will be higher socioeconomic status and thus already above average looking, making the looks gap even wider?

I've never been easy on the eye and I would never consider any form of surgery to improve my appearance. I am what I am.

But we'll just shift the goalpost of what is beautiful

I find it a little short-sighted to kowtow to modern conceptions of beauty when millions of generations of your predecessors were successful in reproducing. Maybe what you think is ugly is actually not. Remember 10 years ago when women over-tweezed their eyebrows? That was gross.

cope, we can’t all make it and trying to shift the goalposts to make it happen is what destroys civilizations

I'm pretty middle of the road but if I put in work I can look decent. I'll never do surgery due to the cost and risk. Unless you are deformed then it's not really worth it. Just get in great shape, if your a guy that makes you attractive no matter what.
