Finally, the present study only begins the task of examining the relationships between sexist beliefs and attitudes to cosmetic surgery. The strength of this approach is that it views cosmetic surgery as a beauty practice like any other (Forbes et al., 2007), but it also leaves open the possibility that there are factors that moderate the relationship between attitudes to cosmetic surgery and sexist beliefs. As such, future studies would do well to include further variables when examining consideration of cosmetic surgery for oneself, such as self- and other-objectification, measures of body image, and indices of self-esteem. Similarly, when investigat- ing endorsement of cosmetic surgery for one’s partner, it may be useful to include such factors as perceptions of the partner’s physical attractive- ness, relationship satisfaction, and love styles.
