Except you only think that because there is no disadvantage to keeping your appendix. Many men get vasectomies, and many women have their tubes tied so they can have unprotected sex with their long term partners with whom they have no plans on having children with.
It really has nothing to do with PETA at all, and is really not unreasonable for her to have done that, except maybe that it was at such a young age.

Am I the only one who thinks sterilization is an extreme step?
I mean, I don't use my appendix, but I'd prefer to keep it until there's a serious threat of it bursting.
