Ask Amy & T.J.: Am I wrong for finding my wife unattractive after surgery?
We asked Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes to weigh in on a relationship question that has the internet divided: What can you do if you stop being attracted to your partner after they change their appearance?
Hi Rose on Reddit's OK in inevitable.
Ask this question, am I wrong for admitting that I find my wife unattractive after her surgery?
Yes.
OK, OK, let me give you the rest of it.
My wife had plastic surgery recently, you judgy one.
we had discussed it and I was against it, but I had no say.
She looks weird now.
Oh, sweet spirit.
I think he needs to tell her how he's feeling.
He said, to your point, I finally told the truth.
OK.
I wasn't harsh.
I just told her that her new face wasn't something I found attractive and that I was turned off.
She went to stay with her sister.
Should I have kept quiet?
Well, I think he has to ask himself, does he want to, and does he think he can continue to be with her now that she looks so different?
She's the same person, she not?
I mean she is.
There are things about, I mean, you could change a haircut, you could change something that's about.
You could gain weight, you can, you could get into an accident, all the things can happen, but if you choose something overnight, you can't ignore the fact that that could impact your relationship.
Hopefully there have a solid foundation of friendship we always talk about.
But I'm also just wondering, she rather have had him never tell her and then just feel rejected for unknown reasons.
This is a heavy conversation that should have taken place before.
Agreed.

Pint-size pioneer 'Dora the Explorer' celebrates her 25th anniversary
NEW YORK — Twenty-five years ago, a little girl with a bob haircut appeared on our TVs, speaking a mix of English and Spanish, with a spunky, can-do spirit. She had an adventure planned, a backpack, a monkey friend and upbeat songs. 'Hi, I'm Dora. What's your name?' she asked. This was, of course, 'Dora the Explorer,' the first Latina to lead a major cartoon series and the girl who helped spearhead the rise of multicultural children's programming in the U.S. on her way to becoming a cultural phenomenon.

‘Elio' Gave Pixar Its Worst Box Office Opening Ever
Elio may have garnered some very solid reviews–low for Pixar considering its back catalogue, but still very solid–but that apparently wasn't enough to save it from setting a pretty grim record. The movie is now currently Pixar's worst-performing opening weekend, but while there is still plenty of time for things to change, what it might say about the future of the studio's output isn't so optimistic. Variety reports that Elio ranked third at the Box Office this weekend behind the still-continued success of the How to Train Your Dragon remake and the launch of 28 Years Later, racking up $21 million. The total came under the roughly $25-30 million that had been anticipated for opening weekend, and the film didn't do much better internationally, bringing Elio to a $35 million global taking so far. There are perhaps multiple factors that can be blamed. Pixar is arguably in some ways still feeling the impact of the pandemic shuttling several of its original films straight to streaming, leading to families anticipating the film coming home sooner rather than later. There's also Disney's marketing of the film, which had been almost non-existent before ramping up in the wake of positive reviews–and even when it did exist, it aimed for vague sci-fi adventure vibes, rather than the compelling emotional story at the heart of the film (and the heart of much of it's critical praise). It's not necessarily all doom and gloom for Elio just yet. The prior holder of the infamous record for worst opening weekend at the studio was Elemental, which faced similar marketing and scheduling challenges when it launched just to the tune of $29.6 million in 2023. However, incredible word of mouth turned things around for Elemental, leading to it closing out its box office run with $155 million domestically, and $496 million globally. Given the similarity of circumstances here, there's every chance that Elio could find a way to a happy ending in theaters. Perhaps even if it did, it's still far from reaching the highs that people (and Disney) expect of Pixar releases at this point. Not every Pixar release post-pandemic has suffered a similar fate: Inside Out 2 broke records last year to rake in over a billion dollars. But that success perhaps more keenly reflects an ongoing broader trend in the industry: kids films are making a comeback after COVID sent them to streaming platforms, but the ones that are leading that comeback aren't original animation any more, but sequels or live-action remakes of familiar brands, from Lilo & Stitch to the aforementioned How to Train Your Dragon. Of the five confirmed films in its slate for the next few years, just two of Pixar's upcoming projects are based on original ideas, Hoppers, due out next year, and the recently announced Gatto, set for 2027. They're sandwiched between heavy hitter sequels in the form of Toy Story 5, Incredibles 3, and Coco 2. Time will tell, just as it will with Elio's fate at the box office, if this rough news now is just signs of an increasingly dire trend. Want more io9 news?
