I was always very critical of MJ for the excessive plastic surgery. I thought he was a handsome young man before he embarked on his campaign to look like a freaky white woman.
Then I read this post by Suzy Soro over at "Hollywood: Where HOT Comes To Die": http://wherehotcomestodie.blogspot.com/2009/07/michael-jackson-memorial.html
And the part about him beginning his plastic surgery campaign when he matured and began to really resemble his abusive father made me re-think my formerly very critical stance. I suppose if I had been abused as a child, I might not want to look in the mirror and see someone who looked just like my abuser every day, either.
This is for the soldiers over at Dad Blogs ... I've had to polish my armor, sharpen my broadsword and am about to mount my high horse. I am going off to war. My opponent, my insidious, wily and downright lowdown opponent will spin fabrication at the drop of a hat. She is a fiendish foe whose goal is to wear me down and make me feel my voice insignificant.
