What Do People Like In Brave New World

Improved Essays
believe that we humans are never happy with what we have, we always want more and more. We always find something to dislike about us or what’s in our surroundings. That’s why we are easily to criticize mostly about everything we dislike or do not find appropriate around us or what’s even worse our own selves. We always look for new things like for example new styles, clothing, music, food and most importantly technology; which leads to being a part of my main topic, Plastic surgery. Sometimes us humans want to change ourselves to make ourselves better in many ways possible either is in attitude, style, mindset, or even appearance. It is common that within the decades people’s way of thinking has changed a whole lot because …show more content…
The ones who are most common to get a job and treated better. These and many other reasons is why people turn into getting plastic surgery done to look better and be how the people around think we should look like and frankly we might be getting to a point into which now everyone is kind of forward to looking the same a pretty face, big lips, big butts, big breast and a tiny waist. Because this is what nowadays is believed to be beautiful to most people with the help of the media. The media feeds the people with basically lies most of the time. Just like in Brave New World, the media is there to cover everything and make assumptions. Plastic Surgery might be a really popular thing going on right now but I believe that mostly they are done because they are influenced by the media but I think that it is not a bad thing that is ruining our society or anything like that . There’s things far worst than plastic surgery for example, terrorism is a big issue that has been within us for a long time now. Plastic surgery could be a very good thing for peoples self esteem and can be life changing in many aspects in their life . When a person doesn’t feel good about …show more content…
these consequences can be caused by anesthesia , a stroke or simply done by a surgeons mistake and many other reasons . although these type of things happen rarely they could happen , but people are still going for it because honestly speaking who doesn’t want to fix a little birth defect . If you have the money to do it and no health issue is stopping you go ahead and go for a change. I think that our society is kind of moving to something similar like the World state in many ways, for example, beauty standards and that people nowadays don’t have to have sex in order to procreate a child into this world. In brave new world sex is encouraged but not pregnancy and that is why babies are created by technology as same as it is going on right now in our society in which it benefits the people of same sex or partners who can’t conceive a child. These and many others things make me think that our society is leading to something somewhat to Brave New world because there’s many similarities in both worlds. The positive way that this is happening its because technology has helped advanced our world to make it better and easier for us . However there is a negative way in which our society is moving to something similar
