The entire club takes sides, with nearly everyone on the "don't change how you look" side, and Quinn, interestingly, on Rachel's. Rachel, after 40 minutes of angsty singing, decides against a nose job, to the delight of her peers. Quinn, it is revealed, used to be overweight and had glasses, but now changed. However, this somehow works out for her, as people admire her for both being beatiful now and for being "herself" then. It's unclear what the message is for Quinn, as she still remains beautiful. One could argue that the message was for her to accept her old self, but that must be much easier [[GrassIsGreener looking the way she does now]].

* In an episode of ''{{Daria}}'', Quinn opted to get plastic surgery to look as good as a fellow classmate. The titular character ends up stepping in and telling her sister she's perfect just the way she is. Of course, since this is [[TheSnarkKnight Daria]] we're talking about, she told Quinn she'd deny saying it if anyone asked. She also managed to help her dodge a bullet since [[spoiler: aforementioned classmate's plastic surgery was almost immediately revealed to have backfired and made her look even worse than before.]]

* In a move highly progressive for Japan, the SliceOfLife manga Blue Roses has Taki, who was never unattractive to begin with, begin to slip into anorexic behavior to be more beautiful like her mother and the skinny girls at school. Her boyfriend, Kouhei, sits her down and explains that no matter what her weight is, she will always be kind and that's the real beauty he fell in love with, and over three issues they overcome it together, though it's always part of her thoughts throughout the series. Given Japan's obsession with thinness, this is ValuesDissonance for their culture, but the author felt it was a case of SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped.
