"You weren't supposed to take them if you hadn't eaten. It was dangerous. Back in the Rusty days-before the operation, when everyone had been ugly-there had been a disease where people deliberately didn't eat. They were so afraid of getting fat that they got way to skinny sometimes even starting themselves to death in a world full of food. It was one of the scary things the operation had gotten rid of"(62)
They just used biotechnology to cure everything, when making the world a less judgmental place would of done the same. Using biotechnology to make everyone pretty is not going to solve anything its just going to trick people into thinking things are fixed. How can you just undergo an operation to change the person you are.. and why is Tally okay with this? Just before she didn't want to she was actually running away from the surgery. They must of done something to her brain because before this she did not act this way at all. I also love how they talk about flaws like they are a thing from the past. Which I find weird because flaws is what makes us human and when we take those away what are we? Just carbon organisms walking around living life with no meaning? Because that's what it seems for them, because none of them seem to be living for anything besides having fun and being pretty though yeah it sounds like a great life technology wants to provide us with but do we really want to live life life that?
