Every Day Kardashians

Pretty much everybody knows who the Kardashians are. A family of cute, above average looking women who rose to fame through a combination of plastic surgery, pornography, and witchcraft. Largely because of them, far too many young women are getting plastic surgery. Where I come from, nobody has the money for plastic surgery, so thankfully I have not yet seen it in real time, but we have all seen innumerable photographs of very cute young women who think they can become supermodels by going under the knife. At best, they end up looking very strange-too often, the results are horrific.

It’s been going on for a while now. Unfortunately, some men are doing it too-not so much through plastic surgery, but through steroids.

A few weeks ago, I was watching a podcast done by a guy whose name I will not mention. He was special forces in the military, and he is very smart. He is also very tall and extremely muscular, which wasn’t surprising given his military career, but he did seem almost unnaturally big. At first, I didn’t think much of it, but as a I kept watching his podcasts, he kept constantly reminding his viewers of how tall and “jacked” he was. I found that a little bit odd, but whatever. Then he started making fun of men who were smaller than he is. Again, odd. Finally, someone asked him straight up if he did steroids, and his answer was a resounding yes. He strongly encouraged other men to start doing steroids too.

This is going to sound judgmental, and maybe it is. Some people will hate me for saying this, but I am going to say it anyway: unless you are a burn victim or suffer from a very real deformity of some kind, plastic surgery does not make young women more attractive, and steroids do not make men more attractive. This is just my opinion, of course. Beauty is a subjective thing, but I can’t be the only person who feels this way. When I see a man who is obviously on steroids, he might as well have the word “Kardashian” stamped on his forehead, and yes, I have been asked out by such men on multiple occasions. I always reject them. Always. None of them ever asked why I was rejecting them, and i never told them why, but it was totally the steroids.

I have been on dating sites for several years now. There is nothing worse than receiving a message from a handsome older man, who at first seems like someone I could totally date, only to go through his pictures and see the shot where he poses without a shirt to show off his muscles, which are obviously the result of steroids. This has happened to me more times than I can count. These men are wrecking themselves just as surely as the Kardashians are wrecking themselves.

I cannot be the only person who finds all the plastic surgery and the injections and the steroids very unattractive. Most of the people doing it were good looking to begin with, but apparently, they felt that they weren’t good looking enough. They often seem to be very happy with the results of their procedures, and nobody wants to hurt their feelings, but they look like shit, and we need to start saying so.

It’s ok to be “only” a cute girl. It’s ok to be a middle-aged guy with a little bit of a gut. Plastic surgery and injections and steroids won’t make you better looking, they will only make you look weird. It’s bad enough that some people are doing it, but like crabs in a bucket, they want to drag others down with them: they want other people to join them. They look like shit, and we need to start saying so.

We cannot allow these strange people to bully children into being just as weird as they are.
