There's also the aspect of individuality being lost. People walk out of the surgeon's looking like they come from the same mother. Sort of cut and paste features.
I also believe that people don't take possible long term effects into account. They figure that if the FDA approves it then it can't be bad. The FDA approved a lot of drugs that caused cancer, birth defects, and then some. I don't blindly trust the FDA. We can't know what a buildup of neurotoxin will do over decades of injections. Yes botox wears off, but that doesn't mean some residual amount of the botulism doesn't remain and build up over time.
To be fair I think a lot of Brigitte's disdain for fighting the aging process stems from her love of animals. So much torture for vanity's sake. I'm sure it repulses her. Almost everything gets tested on animals first. That wouldn't fly with BB. -

I hope one day it will all finish and people will be natural and real to the end.
I have no problem whatsoever with anybody choosing cosmetic surgery as they get older, as long as:- It's safe
- You don't wind up looking like a freak - I'd rather look old and wrinkled than look like a space alien.

- You still resemble the old you still - better than looking like a space alien, but I would want to have my family recognize me after the surgery (unless you were funny looking to begin with :-D).
No blah, blah, blah!

Raquel was prettier, but Brigitte was sexier.
I agree with this.
At their peak (Raquel in the '60s-early '70s and Brigitte during the '50s-early '60s), Raquel was the most beautiful, IMO. Both had outstanding bodies, so they balance out each other in that department. Yet, as sexy as I feel Raquel was (and still is), Brigitte had that extra something that got your heart beating just a little bit more faster.
In the end, I would say it's a draw between them. Nothing wrong with that.

Both Brigitte and Raquel were gorgeous in their heyday. But it's sort of like picking between Ginger and Mary Ann on the old Gilligan's Island choice. Let's just say I wouldn't kick either of them out of the bedroom if I were a lucky man.
