It would be easy to make fun of fatness or cosplay, but I wish to probe the philosophical question:

At what point does a photo of you become not a photo of you?

Here is a retouched photo of me from New Year's.

When I did my Glamourshots thing for my birthday last year, the guy selling me the package was shocked that I wasn't interested in paying for retouching. My response to him was, "I'm a woman, not a Stepford wife. I earned these crow's feet, thankyouverymuch."
