You can call double-eyelid surgery wrong or see it as evidence of body dysmorphia, but don't overplay the race issue. It's insulting to those of us who are merely vain.

It's a classic error in American discourse: the conflation of race with culture.

I think we've gotten to a point where we're becoming really sensitive to things like body dysmorphia, but I think it's gone too far, where people are accusing everyone of hating themselves.

As I found again and again as a writer, when you're completely honest about something, people respond to that.

Bad things happen when you try to let things just happen. You can't be passive.

As the saying goes, even a broken clock is right twice a day; that doesn't mean you should run out and buy one.
