Todd: Talking about body alterations 1, I think for men it's not so much cosmetic 2 surgery, but it's steroids these days. That's the hot topic.


Wendi: Do you think so?


Todd: Well, I'll tell you, when I was in high school, I knew so many guys that did steroids, at least probably twenty, twenty-five guys I knew did steroids in high school.


Wendi: But do you think that currently, that kids are into steroids? Are you thinking of like athletic 3, for athletes type thing, or are you just thinking guys that wanna look big and stuff?


Todd: Well, that's a good point like I'm older now. I'm 36 and I haven't been in the states in awhile but when I was in university up until 22 it was still quite a common thing.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Todd: And I think athletes do it because they can get money. That know that...


Wendi: Oh, for sure. Yeah, I think definitely in the high school kind of sports scene, I think that there are a lot of youth taking steroids as performance enhancers.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Wendi: But when I was in high school, I knew some guys who were taking steroids just to look good. Well, what their concept of looking good was, which I thought was not good at all, but I know they were taking it because they thought bigger was better kind of thing, but yeah.


Todd: Now they know, all these things it can do to your body. It can give you cancer.


Wendi: Yeah. Yeah.


Todd: I mean, so it's the same thing with the implants 4 that you were talking about earlier. Why would you do anything to your body that could be such a risk? I mean, it's just not worth the risk.


Wendi: But I guess that's not the perspective because like, it's all about right now is the moment and people don't really think of life as being like, like something that comes and goes. Like your life is your life and it's like it's here and it's here forever kind of and I don't think that people really put it into perspective, like actually like in the blink of an eye it can all be gone.


Todd: Rigth. Which is true. In a blink of an eye it all can be gone.


Wendi: Yeah, it all can be gone incredibly easy.
