Isn't it amazing what we women must do in order to stay ahead in the rat race? There was a time when women were commended for staying home and raising children. Some young ladies still choose this lifestyle, but many of us have chosen to have a career instead; and yet, some women choose to have a family and a career.
As women, we understand that priorities change when our lives change. I believe if a woman feels she needs to have procedures done in order to advance in a man's world… that is her decision to do so if she so desires.
I think it is ridiculous to tax anyone, male or female, on having any procedures done which could potentially make that individual feel better about him or herself. I am not sure where I originally heard this, but I once heard a person should "be comfortable with the skin you are in." If the government just HAS to tax these procedures, they should only tax the procedures which are covered by one's health insurance. I don't believe the insurance company should have to pay this tax, but it is the least a person can do if the insurance company covers the majority of the procedure or procedures. If this is paid by the patient in a cash option, as in out-of-pocket, I believe the tax penalty should be waived altogether. Great post!
