I have to agree with Blushun. You can't compare reconstructive surgery with plastic surgery. they're different things coming from a completely different perspective for obvious reasons.

Yes people can debate that eye tape is like getting a boob job or relaxing your hair...but there is something about Asians taping their eyes to look more westernized that is disturbing. Its one thing if you want a few highlights or even a boob job. To me, those things are so commonplace in so many societies that people don't even think twice about getting them done.

I have to say eye taping isn't so bad b/c it is temporary but when certain people go all the way and get the permanent surgery is where there is an issue. It totally goes into the same category of skin bleaching, and not the skin bleaching to get rid of a few hyperpigmented spots but the type of skin bleaching that is done in some parts of Africa where they just want to be a different race & sacrifice their well being to be a completely different shade.

Its one thing enhancing your beauty with a cute hair cut and some high lights and a sexy red lip (cuz hair always grows back & makeup can always be washed off) but when introducing a product that makes you feel ashamed of your ethnicity & persuading you to go as far as to permanently changing it is another.

bottom line....eye tape/glue is a stepping stone to hating your ethnicity & what you're born with and a gateway to permanently changing yourself to be someone you're not.

Cuz eventually, tape and glue won't be enough and you'll be looking for more permanent procedures to get it just to be more "western"
