Reader Shocked by Ads for ‘Nose Jobs’
- Share via
I was really shocked to see two full color ads in the July 2 Nuestro Tiempo for plastic surgery “nose jobs” for Latinos. I was shocked because I think it gives this section a lousy image:
* Latino women should change their noses.
* Their innate, natural beauty isn’t accepted in the European-dominated culture.
* Middle-income and low-income Latinas should spend their money on these services.
I think it is a terrible image of Latina women.
I’m not a member of the Latino community but I do work with many college-age Latinos and these ads are disgusting to me.
