No, you Dumas squared, I meant actual surgery, like a doctor poking (not the Lahtina way, but the medical professional way) and performing an actual surgery on you.

I think it's a waste of money. The eye's is why I like alot of asian chicks. I think it should only be done if it's causing problems with your vision like for driving

I thought the laser correction was the only way they do it these days. I didn't know they did it the old way still.

I don't think Buffy was referring to glasses/contacts,. she said VISION SURGERY,. I don't know about it,. but it must be two (if not more) different methodes of doing it,..

I'm referring to being a kid growing up and being picked on almost everyday because of the shape of my eyes! And I would do this op in a heartbeat but i'd rather get the corrective vision surgery first.
Ok man......
I won't call you Chino any more....
Yes, Baina, we know your grandmother was chinese.

In cartoons. All Japanese cartoons' characters have these figures with HUUUUUGE eyes. It's like I was watching this movie the other day, the Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants, and the latina girl is telling her white stepmother that "we are built different" 'cause they were choosing a bridesmaid dress, and the one for the latina was just too small, you know, considering the ass and the curvaceous shape most latinas have. I guess every race has its shortcomings, in their own eyes (no pun intended) but we never realize it because we've never been through it. This eye surgery thing I find extremely interesting, as a social study kinda thing. I'm not making much sense today. I need a coffee. Another one, 'cause I already had one.

Why? I like the shape of Asian eyes!! I have to use eyeliner for that!!!
Hmmm....
I think everyone endures racism regardless of where they're from, no??? I get bashed all the time because of my last name and I knew that was going to happen when I legally changed it but what do I care???
Keep your shape MM!!!!
