Do men prefer plastic surgery?

[Summertime1998]

in everyone’s experience, would you say men prefer girls who have had plastic surgery?

I’ve always been conscious of my nose and have debated whether to get a nose job for many years. The reason I haven’t is because of the fears of what could go wrong and I’ve always been quite set against finding someone to love me for me.

I’m newly single and feel a bit out of the loop when it comes to beauty standards. Everywhere I look it seems like girls are perfect! Perfect teeth, small noses, nice boobs etc, and it’s left me feeling a bit deflated in all honesty…

men say to me they don’t like girls who have had work done but the girls I’m seeing look extremely natural but have spent thousands to look that way! How on earth do you compete with that ….

Do not get surgery to please a hypothetical future man

This

But equally don’t decide not to in case it bothers a hypothetical man!

Huh? Most women haven't had plastic surgery surely it's a small number that do?!

I don’t think it’s a case of competing. Men (and women) find all sorts of things attractive. There’s not one set type that men prefer.

There is a trend for tweakments, there’s definitely a “instagram” aesthetic and some men will like that and some men won’t.

Let’s be honest most men will shag anything with a pulse (or without) so I really wouldn’t worry about it.

Invest in the things which make you happy and confident in yourself and don’t worry about other women

Please don't call men men and women girls.

A good man will want a woman. And a good man wouldn't want that woman to have had plastic surgery for him. If you want to change things for yourself, do. But to be something different for someone else, you will never ever be happy.

Stop focusing on what everyone else looks like. What things bring you joy? Focus on that.

Everywhere I look it seems like girls are perfect! Perfect teeth, small noses, nice boobs etc, and it’s left me feeling a bit deflated in all honesty…

Are you talking about everywhere you look on Instagram or in Sainsbury's?

Who cares if they do. Don’t change to please anyone. Path to madness. Be the best version of you for you and then you attract the right person for YOU.

A nose job is not obvious to anybody who has not met you before.

Do it if it makes you feel better about your nose. Do it for yourself.

I don't think men recognise plastic surgery unless it's purposefully obvious or poorly done. I really don't think you need to worry about this.

All men are different. Lip fillers and turkey teeth are in just now. Some guys love the look others don't. Also I think when guys say they don't like women who's had plastic surgery they mean they don't like women who look like Katie Price.

I wouldn't worry about what men like. Do it for yourself. If you change your nose because you've always disliked it it'll boost your confidence and that's what will attract the right person. Anyone who's going to judge you for that isn't the one anyway.

Fuck. I really didn’t want to be that poster but please please please stop using men and girls. It is so F!CKING ANNOYING.
Like repeatedly.
Its diminishing and infantilising.

Men don’t prefer that.
Some women may want to change their noses for themselves.
it is foolish to change your nose for some hypothetical man who may never exist.
Only you need to live with your face.
Concentrate more on your esteem and acceptance of your womanhood and stop infantilising yourself then maybe it’ll get better.

Until you learn to love yourself you will never feel you are pretty enough

Why are you fixating on your nose. The nose is so easy to can easily be contoured with cosmetics

I fixate on my eyes and lips when Im not feeling myself. I had a bad accident when I was a child and Ive a very lopsided face. When Im down I look at myself and think - totally unloveable

But Im loved. Hy husband loves me. My grandchildren love me. Im loved in work.

I always say Ive a face only a mother could love ( thats a different story 0 she doesnt )

Saying I "love myself" sounds so weird, I dont say it like that, I feel I have accepted this is me, this is my face, this is what is on show, ( and it aint pretty at all ) so I have built this persona , bright, bubbly and positive and then as I get to know people, that persona doesnt matter so much and more of me shows and Ive not scared anyone off so far

Do not be going under the knife unless its for YOU. You are probibly extremely beautiful, perfect skin, lush hair etc. Look at what you do actually have

Do not get surgery to please a hypothetical future man

This, but also why would you assume that men all like the same thing? There will certainly be men who prefer artificially modified women. Are those the kind of men whose opinion you value?

If your nose is unusually large or crooked and you feel a nose job would improve your confidence and chances of love in life then I would go for it. However, if it’s not going to be life changing I wouldn’t.

i also think Instagram/tik tok vs reality are very different. Women may look “perfect” online but when do you see those girls walking down the street. Everyone has skin texture, scars, teeth yellowing, stretch marks, fine lines etc

I'm not a fan of plastic surgery myself but having said that it's not my body so it's completely up to you what you do with it.

If you have issues with confidence it may be better addressing them issues in other ways such as counselling/therapy.the most important thing is learning to love/like yourself,yes its hard a bet there is not a person in this world deep down that likes everything about themselves.

But the most important thing is accepting you,you must do that before anyone else can.

I’ve got my grandmas big nose, she sweated her arse off to survive, I’m proud of my nose and wouldn’t change it for any man. Fuck all this instagram bollox.

"Men" in general like lots of different things. The way you worded it as "plastic surgery" makes it sound like you are saying men prefer very artificial looking women and sure, some might and some wont.

I've had a nose job- one of the best things I ever did as I broke my nose twice as a kid and I had a huge bony lump on the top bridge. How would anyone I meet now even know that I've had it done?- it looks completely natural. That said, I did it for me, noone else and I couldn't give a shit if anyone disapproves of it as it's my body and my choice and my money. I am so happy looking in the mirror now, I love my nose so if you do get it done, you must do it for yourself, not to please anyone else as going down that road is a path to misery.

Who cares what men like, most of them are arseholes anyway. If they want someone who looks perfect how is that going to work when they get older? They'll be trading in for a younger 'perfect' woman. Please don't ever do anything to yourself based on what you think men are going to prefer.

Sad question OP. If a man prefers a surgically enhanced look, do you want to be with him? You need to be thinking what you want , not what a hypothetical man wants. You are what is important. Work on that.

@takemeawayagain exactly, every time I think oh he’s a good un, they’re all always after someone who massages their little ahem ego. Who cares about them. I’m not a man hater but I can think of nothing worse than trying to create a look for men. Anyway pro tip op, they don’t care how you look, they only care how much you flatter their ego. Hence you see a 50 old man running off with a 20 year old that can’t string a sentence together but can flatter their fragile balding ego.

Sorry for the rant op, I really shouldn’t post before a coffee in the morning! Good luck anyway

Wtf with the advertising???!!!

Yeah that’s awful MNHQ!!! Boooooooo!
