Boob jobs...

Jean1Marc

I'm all for doing something that makes you feel better, as long as it's not just a self-image thing. If you're not comfortable with who you are at the "soul" or "psyche" level [and I'm not talking religion, here], different breasts will not fix that. Get your head straight if it is not, before you enlarge your breasts.

Also, my Grandmother and my sister had huge breasts, naturally, with all the problems women talk about with that: my Grandmother had to make her own bras, to handle her "F" cups (on a 98-pound, 5' 0" frame), rested them on the dinner table, and was hunched over for the last 30 years of her life. My sister had back problems, until she had material removed, and the remainder "lifted". My suspicion is that most women who have back pain from their breasts would benefit in lots of ways from this kind of surgery, and most insurance will cover it as a health-related necessity, rather than looking at it as "cosmetic" and/or "elective".

That said, I am an "*kitten*" guy, not a "boob" guy, but I do appreciate a nice set. But "big" is not necessarily "nice". I liked Demi Moore when her boobs were small. They're big now, and that's okay, but she was hotter in "About Last Night" than in "Stripper". One of the hottest bodies I've seen recently is Alex Morgan of the US Soccer women's team. Check out her body-paint portfolio at Sports Illustrated's website. Those are very small breasts, and they look great on her.

Any guy who has anything bad to say about your breasts ought not to get his hands, his mouth, or his eyes on them. If you're considering a boob job because of a man, maybe what you really need is a surgery to remove the man from your life.

Not at all, I really hope you didn't misread my previous post as I think I'm the only one who said, "trashy." Natural boobs, no matter what the size are beautiful. Fake boobs, like I said, "in my 'humble' opinion" are trashy, mainly when you have the super skinny girls with these balls just sitting on their chest. My opinion greatly differs when the operation was done due to surviving breast cancer or the like.

Obviously you know nothing about implants. I don't see why you are in this thread if it does not apply to you. You are trolling and offending some people. Disrespect and rudeness will get you nowhere.

My "trashy balls" as you call them do not look like balls. I am a skinny girl with larger implants.

I hope you would not be offended by me stating that your breast augmentation is obvious, at least to me, but I'm a nursing student. I would never comment, let alone insult, a woman for having them done, but I think it's important to realize that if the end goal is to have natural looking breasts, it is a rarity for that to happen. They almost always end up looking too round, too hard, and too high on the chest.

I was going to say the same thing. They look hard. Not natural at all.

Hence why I chose not to comment.

To each their own, but personally, I wish the guy who invented implants would drown in saline. I'd rather see a real pair of small boobies than a big pair of misshapen, obviously fake boobies.

Don't get me wrong...I'm DEFINITELY a breast man, but to me, size is irrelevant. A-cups, DD-cups and all the beautiful sizes in-between. I've always said, "As long as there are two of them and they're within arm's reach, I'm a happy guy."

For women who get post-pregnancy boob jobs, it has nothing to do with size. It also has nothing to do with pleasing a man. Personally, I want one to have my breasts where they used to be (not huge, just the way they looked before having a child). I could care less what a man thinks of them, and I don't want them to be huge. It's for ME, not anybody else. Although, my boyfriend doesn't care either way, he just wants me to be happy.

There's been times in my long, long life :laugh: when I wanted bigger boobs. Getting implants was never an option because, well... I'm poor, plus if I had the money, I would prefer to put a couple extra grand into something like a kitchen remodel.

I'm glad I never did. I love my little boobs. Once a month, they get a little big bigger and firmer, and they drive me BONKERS. They're in the way... I always seem to be bumping my arms into them. They hurt when I run. Plus, I'd have even more contempt for society if people started treating me better because I had bigger boobs. :laugh:

Boobs are the one great flaw in the design of women. They really should be more like penises, and only grow when we need them. Of course, those things have their own embarrassing flaws, too, and don't always pop up ONLY when needed.

lol I love this. I have always had relatively small boobs... IMHO, a padded bra when you want to look bigger is better than getting a BA... But if it makes you feel better about yourself and youve done the research, then go for it if its something you really want. I have thought about it in the past, but honestly, I want to be able to breast feed my babies and larger boobs get in the way. I have been living by the motto "any more than a handful is a waste" and its totally true. hahaha

^^^ BOTH OF THESE.
I've always been REAAAALLLY small -- when I was in college, Victoria's Secret didn't even MAKE a bra small enough to fit me (embarassing). But padded / water / miracle bras are so good now, who cares...???? Honestly, I like the fact that I can take mine on and off at will -- now you got 'em, now you don't. VOILA. :bigsmile:

And my husband has the same motto -- more than a handful or a mouthful is a waste anyway.

_SusieQ_

As soon as I get closer to my goal I'm getting mine sucked and tucked. These massive puppies are a pain in my....well back, shoulders, you name it.

As long as you aren't hurting anyone else, I'm all for doing whatever makes you feel better about yourself. As long as you are doing it for YOU and not some dumb@ss significant other.

topless mine dont look natural.

i knew they wouldnt, that doesnt bother me and im sure it doesnt bother Tiny.

something created by a surgeon is going to look perfect, which denotes not natural as nature isnt perfect.

What makes you think that I wanted to have a super natural look? It doesn't offend me when you say mine augmentation is obvious, part of that is because they are still healing and new. Once I have fully healed they will look very different. But even then I did not have to goal of a super natural look. And I got what I wanted.

There are many different looks, and a good doctor can help you get the look that you want. If you want super natural it can be done. If you want fake, it can be done. They do not almost always look round, hard, and fake. It is a person choice.

ekz13

guy here...

several thoughts on this one... if you want em, that's your choice, make sure that you're getting them for the right reason. second not that they don't look good cause most of them look great when done properly.


My personal tastes however, if I want to handle $3,000 worth of silicone, I'll buy an alienware laptop. :happy: I favor the natural ones.. Too perfect is a turn off too

It irks me to my very core just how judgmental, opaque and narrow-minded and just plain ignorant some women can be towards women who have breast implants. I understand there is a stigma towards breast implants and some may believe every woman who has them might look and act like Pamela Anderson but on the contrary most of us are educated and exceedingly intelligent women who are wives and mothers. Not all women with implants are porn stars or bimbos! Most women with these heinous allegations are naturally big breasts and pass judgment on women who want to change their appearance. To my knowledge 60% of women who choose to get implants do it for deformities and I fall into the 40% of women who get it purely for cosmetic reasons. But you know what? I may have gotten my augmentation for cosmetic reasons but my breasts had always been naturally small, after having my son and trying to do what was right for his health by breastfeeding him, I lost all the volume in my breasts. I was less than an A cup before getting my breast augmentation. I understand that I could have lived with breasts that were smaller than my ten-year old niece’s, but I wanted to feel like a woman. Yes its social pressure and society’s idea that women should have the curvaceous figure, but it’s also a woman’s choice to change things she is unhappy with. Does it make me any less than a woman without implants? No. I really hope that one day the stigma associated with implants will cease and people can make a conscious effort to not be so judgmental.

Interesting... My mom's had hers for probably about 15 years and hers still look hard and unnatural.

For those who are curious about how to differentiate real from fake.

@Tiny - while I think the term "trashy balls" is insulting and unnecessary, I was stating that you do have obviously round breasts that are unnatural looking. I assumed you posted the picture to prove that they did not look too round or unnatural, my apologies.

ok now I understand. They could have looked more natural but you CHOSE to go with hard, round and fake. Thanks for clarifying.

Seriously, you make a page and it's a dollar for men to send you a message and they can donate to your sweater kittens. There will be pervs who want you to do nasty stuff, but they all found super sweet guys who donated to it. One of my girlfriends and her husband are actually really good friends with one of the guys who donated.

Kymwho

I didn't get implants but I did have a reduction and lift. It literally changed my life both mentally and physically. I had over 500 stitches ( minimal scarring) and it was worth every single one. Pain was very minimal since it didn't involve muscle tissue.
I don't know you so I can't say if getting implants will change your life. You need to know that it will before you even do it. Good luck.

With the lift did you notice a huge difference? I'm looking into one of the two, as soon as I can get my pennies saved, lol!! ;-)
I was a 34B before getting preggo and now a 38DD..a DEFLATED DD!! LOL! Pregnancy and yo-yo weight loss really takes a toll on your body.. :-(

newsflash, medicine has advanced in the last 15 years.

i am overwhelmed by the veiled b1tchyness of SOOOO many women on this site.

it is truly pathetic and perfectly demonstrates the reason why i rarely interact with women who arent professional, highly driven and articulate.

they are never b1tches.

If she has had them for 15 years, that is a big reason. There are much newer options out now that won't look like that. Back then women only had one option for implants. Now you have a choice between round and anatomical, saline or silicone, plus different diameters and projections. If your mom had her's done today they could look completely different. A lot depends on the surgeon's technique and training, which has also come a long way from where it was when your mother had hers done. If you'd like some more information there is plenty out there, I can provide you with a few websites that have educational resources about today's augmentation.

You may not always be able to tell if a boob job is fake by looking at it, but you can definitely tell by how they feel. And I would argue against that, as I can always tell if it's fake/natural by how round the breast is - natural boobs will not have the shelving effect when they are pushed up - they look squishy instead of hard. Natural breasts *should* spill over to the side when you lay down on your back and *should* be more conical when you're bending over. This obsession with having a very perky round boob is something that's been pushed by the media - it's not something that many women have naturally as they age.

I've gone back and forth between whether or not I think they're ok. Personally, I think plastic surgery in general (aside from reconstructive for those who are burn victims, breast cancer, etc to restore what was there before) just feeds into the superficiality of our society. Someone stated that if every woman got a boob job, nobody would be able to tell. Well, I argue that if plastic surgery was only reserved for those times when it was really needed, women (and men) would not feel the pressure to live up to a standard that includes placing fake materials in your body, going under general anesthesia, and risking your life for the sake of physical appearance.

That being said, I know several friends that have had them done, and they were happy with their results. But it did not solve their insecurities with their body, nor did it suddenly make their lives better. It's not a quick fix for your self-esteem at all.

You are more than your boobs. Period.

Totally not true. My natural breasts had an amazing shelf look. How could you possibly profess to know the intricacies of every breast of every woman? It is all about your natural upper pole shape and the amount of fat or breast tissue you have under it. Your comments are completely self centered and superficial and show no real grasp or understanding of why women have these surgeries.

I think its a matter of preference. i love boobies. Real or fake. But if they are fake they must be done correctly.

I am going to DISAGREE with the person who said they are trashy. I dated a girl who had beautiful ones. She is real skinny and had an a cup. She went to just a B cup and they were beautiful on her. You don't have to disrespect people just because you don't like fake boobs. And PS your boobs in the pics are AWESOME!!

nikkis01

Im definately getting a boob job!!

At the moment Im a 42HH - they are massive, they try and kill me when I sleep and they cause no end of problems when I buy clothes - but I love them!!

Losing weight will mean that they are going to get smaller, and this saddens me, a lot! However, due to a history of breast cancer, and having the faulty gene, I have a 90% chance of developing breast cancer at some point so chances are Im going to lose them anyway. My plan is to lose weight, get healthy and get big fake boobs!

They arent for everyone, its a very personal choice - but for me, its a definate YES!

HauteP1nk

I would love to get a boob job, but I am scared of everything....lol

My fiance seems to like them though...so maybe I shouldn't mess with them until they are somewhere down below my knees....lol
