aldo-vallon - June 4, 2018
Gemma Arterton was born a polydactyl, meaning she had a sixth digit on each hand. Shortly after she was born the doctor removed both of them, which I think is barbaric. It is permanently changing the body of a person that has no say in the matter. How this can be allowed to go on in a society that claims to be civilized simply baffles me. I mean, I can understand why a person would dye their child’s hair in order to prevent it being known that they are ginger, but this is too far.
There would be nothing wrong with Gemma if she still had twelve fingers, barring any adverse health effects that I am oblivious about. In fact, she might even be superior to her current self. Imagine what she could accomplish with those extra fingers. She could have been a musician or involved in fetish porn. The possibilities are nearly endless, but instead what is she? A boring old actress. I think it is irrelevant that she is one of the lucky ones who became successful. There was no guarantee that would happen, but I guarantee she would have been successful without the amputations.
