I own my brain because I’m human. Other animal brains, (whale, deer, cow, grasshopper, bird) are not owned by themselves, perhaps animals are simply incapable of comprehending our level of organization. That’s why we can make their decisions for them.

Sorry it’s just absolutely bizarre to me to think of a part of your body having different ownership than the other parts. Too atomistic. Are we renting out the space in our heads? If so, shouldn’t that be mitigated to prevent unnecessary damage?

I feel like Chicken Tonight like Chicken Tonight!

I have also seen this. It can be easier to control one’s appearance than to control unidentified problems. There’s a huge market for fashion & cosmetics, perhaps bigger than the education industry. All people have value regardless of appearance or ability, of course.
