Welcome Kdephil..and good for you youre not using a title.. although we call them nicknames..and they are not pretensions or anything... i use it coz that is the name i would give to myself...and since we didnt get to decide our names , this is one place we can take any name for us... Plus i agree with you on the fact that High shool can be really tough...the adults just dont get it;-)..of course thinking back gives us perspective..and dude..your question is rhetoric i guess.. since no individual grows in isolation it is a kind of brainwashing..some succumb to it some grow in spite of it(the society says"these are the values..inculcate them.and you either do or make your own and seek to destroy the old ones )..and dont exclude family.. famillies are the primary unit of the 'brainwashing'.. about the boob job thing..it can be called the current generations idea of what looks good(thogh not all would agree) and the fashion mag culture which makes everyone hate their bodies...and dude dont generalise..i know plenty of asian women who would get a boob job if they had the money...but most asian women are well endowed in that area i would say;-D.. BTW..wat does Kdephil stand for if it aint a 'title'..
