Software engineers from big tech firms like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta are paying at least $75,000 to get 3 inches taller, a leg-lengthening surgeon says

The surgeon breaks the patients' thigh bones and inserts nails that are extended with a magnetic remote control every day for three months, GQ said.

Sweet man-made horrors beyond my comprehension.

      one time I saw someone say that in terms of like, beauty standards and conventional views of attractiveness black women and Asian men have it the worst (in the US)

      I'm not either of these and I don't date but I think about that sometimes. not a very pleasant topic to reflect on frankly

        and obviously the situation for Asian women and black men is also terrible but for a different reason

        IDK how the attractiveness dynamics for different groups of gender nonconforming people shakes out. maybe it's better in some way
