WOmen whO suffer PAIN fOr the sake Of BEAUTY ...

I think it depends who they're doing it for. If it's for themselves, I'd say honorable but if it's for others, it's pathetic.

People might SAY it's pathetic, but I think most women would give 5 years of their life if they could get skinny or pretty (preferably both).

It is considered lowly, but it is a fact of life.

I'd go with neither. It's a choice, and it is a legitimate one. 

that really depends. we cant just sum it up into honorable or pathetic. there are certain considerations. generally speaking, women go through lots of pains to look or feel the way we do. example: walking in heels is painful at times but women have been wearing them for ages and still continue to. i mean it depends on what it is. a bad example would be having the feeling that being thin will make people love you so you starve yourself until you are sickly isnt honorable. i hope you see where im coming from.

I think such things as plastic surgery,in moderation,are perfectly acceptable for people who just want to enhance their appearance.I wouldn't go as far to say it's honorable.The ones who feel they need to alter their appearance are IMO a little misguided and have some self-esteem problems that plastic surgery will never solve.I wouldn't call them pathetic,maybe just a little disturbed.The reality is tweezing,waxing,wobbling in sky high stilettos and injecting god knows what into our faces is painful...but if it gives you confidence and makes a woman feel beautiful,I don't see the harm.
