This came up in a previous question, but what exactly do people dislike about women who’ve had cosmetic surgery? Is it a problem if they can tell you’ve had work done? Is it okay if they can’t tell?
This content is machine-translated.
I’ve had work done on both my face and body, and quite a few of my friends and people I knew at university have also had cosmetic surgery or breast augmentation. You wouldn’t know unless they told you. I’m not flashy, and most of the people around me have a natural-looking appearance too. Clinics these days are amazing.
What is it that people dislike?
I’m a male member, BB7.
I’m not into the artificial look that comes from cosmetic surgery. You can tell just by looking—the features always seem slightly unbalanced.

Maezawa from the CEO’s office here—I’ll answer too.
This is just a guess, but I think they may dislike faces—or certain features—that look artificial.
Maybe they associate “artificial” with dolls or something similar.
But if appearance is all that matters, wouldn’t a doll be fine too? What matters is what’s inside, right?
That’s what I think, but apparently they have their preferences.

It’s similar to asking why people dislike being cheated on: what really bothers them is that their partner kept the fact that they cheated hidden from them all along.
But if the affair never came to light, they wouldn’t even know to dislike it in the first place. So, essentially, I don’t think whether someone has had cosmetic surgery would be an issue if it never came to light. If no one finds out, it’s practically the same as never having done it.
Is that just sophistry? I don’t believe sincerity means telling your partner absolutely everything without hiding anything, so even if I had cosmetic surgery, I probably wouldn’t mention it.

A friend of mine once touched his girlfriend’s breasts after she’d had them augmented, but said they felt strange and unpleasant, giving him chills. Since then, he apparently hasn’t been able to accept any kind of cosmetic surgery.

It’s kind of like how people prefer free-range chicken, wild-caught fresh fish, or organic vegetables. Some people might not be able to tell the difference in a taste test between those and farmed or commercially produced alternatives. You might even be able to serve them lab-grown meat made from substitute ingredients and they wouldn’t notice. But if they had to choose for themselves, they’d probably go with the natural option. The reason is simple: it’s a gift from nature. It’s almost like a religion. That may be especially true in Japan, perhaps because of the influence of Shinto.
And now, here’s a song for you: “Kokoro” by Midori-kawa Shobō.

It sounds like you can’t stand people who deny having had cosmetic surgery.
I think of it as being similar to the income field on a dating app. If a man earning 4 million yen listed his income as 20 million yen, you’d be upset, right?
Even if every date from the very first one was completely consistent with someone earning 20 million yen, how would you feel if he finally admitted on the tenth date that he actually earned only 4 million yen?
Some people would get angry because it changes how they view the previous nine dates, while others might think it was still fine because they really did get to enjoy nine dates with someone who seemed to earn 20 million yen—even if there wouldn’t be an eleventh date.
I think people’s opinions differ based on:
・Whether they find out or not
・How they feel when they do find out
Personally, I’d be somewhat shocked if I learned long after we started dating that my partner had had cosmetic surgery. But I wouldn’t have a problem with my girlfriend choosing to get cosmetic surgery while we’re together.

I don’t think there’s much point in asking someone why they like or dislike certain people. What are you going to do by asking, “Why don’t you like spicy food?”
