Appearance Quote by Faye Wattleton

“Being a person who has had plastic surgery and goes to the gym five days a week to work my muscles up so they don't look atrophied as a 60-year-old, I don't disparage people who want to maintain their appearance. But what I don't want is a society that tells me I have to.” quote by Faye Wattleton — Download Open image
