The New York Times asks: Is the “Mom Job” really necessary?
“Necessary?” They’re asking if elective plastic surgery (a tummy tuck, breast lift, and liposuction) is a requirement? Are women’s bodies, especially mothers’ bodies, so flawed in our current culture that we are now required to pay thousands of dollars to be allowed to be seen in public?
Also, I wish that the NYT chose to focus more often on issues affecting more than the top 1% of the income distribution.
