Experiment

I was assigned to complete an experiment  that required me to go up to  different people and ask them a question. The question that I asked was: What do you think is more acceptable in our society, getting braces to fix teeth, or getting a Rhinoplasty surgery, commonly known as a Nose job? I asked people that I knew and then I asked some strangers. I admit that it was pretty intimidating going up to strangers, because I do not know how they would react, but fortunately everyone that I talked to was friendly. My first person I had asked thought that both a nose job and braces were acceptable in society, and he decided that he would get braces, if he were to make a choice. I had also asked two other people who had agreed that braces are more acceptable in society. I had asked a friend and she responded that these are both accepted in this society, but people who get nose jobs are less likely to admit it, or want to talk about it. I was really glad that I was able to get opinions from these people, because it allowed me to think differently. In my opinion, these days I see a lot of people who get braces and nose jobs. Braces and nose jobs are altering the appearance on an individual which the end result makes the person happy with a new look. Some people are led to believe that an individual is not as happy with themselves, because they choose to modify their appearance. That is how it used to be years ago when it was not that common to get a nose job or braces, but now everyone is doing it! I think it is perfectly fine if someone wants to look better! I have personally have never had braces, due to having naturally straight teeth, or a nose job, because I am afraid to go under the knife, and I do not want one.

  1. Yeah, I feel the same way that braces are more acceptable than nose jobs. It's cool that you've seen people with nose jobs because I still haven't lol

  2. I remember I was also with you in library when you asked people. Even I had same experience most of people see braces are most acceptable. It was quite interesting experiment and I enjoyed it a lot to ask others about what they think.

  3. i also think that braces are more accepted in society; they're also more common. i feel like rhinoplasty and other forms of cosmetic surgery are starting to become popular and even a bit more accepted, but like you said, people would just rather not admit to it.
