Let's talk about breast implants

This a great topic, and there are many good opinions here.

I keep thinking of something my brothers used to say about men who wore a toupee that kind of reflects my opinion on implants. That is, "you only notice the bad ones, and there are no 'so so' toupees". For me implants ( or any cosmetic surgery for that matter ) follow that same guide.

Typically the only time that I will notice implants is when they are so badly done that they evoke the kind of visceral negative response that was never intended.........sort of like a badly designed/executed tattoo. I don't give a shit what the personal psychology of it is. If a woman feels that implants make her feel good that's perfectly fine, but among the women that I know, the only negativity comes from some girl strutting some really bad boob job. Then again, if she can do that and overcome the snickering of her peers, for simply having really bad taste, then more power to her. That might build a kind of ego strength itself, who knows.

Implants for me ? Maybe. If pregnancy makes by my perfectly lovely B's wilt, I may have implants. And if I do I will get some nice ones that will not look like a weekend purchase when I was drunk.

I neither like nor dislike breast augmentation, because it is really dependent on the woman having the augmentation done and how augmented she gets. I have seen some women that were attractive get boob jobs and still be attractive, but I have also seen women get a boob job and I found them less attractive afterwards. If a woman stays within a range that still looks natural in accordance with her body, with out further augmentation of her body, then they are usually still attractive after. It is when they get too large of an augmentation that things get odd. My wife had a boob job after our son was born, because she went from an A cup before pregnancy to a D cup during pregnancy and while nursing, but she only went up to a B cup with the augmentation. Her boobs still look natural and feel mostly natural, and in actuality it may only be the fact that I know she had the operation that makes them feel even slightly unnatural. I do not believe that the majority of women that get such augmentations have insecurity issues, so much as they are doing something that makes them happy. It is no different than a guy buying a fast car or fast motorcycle because that is what they enjoy.

It's a bit of a turn off for me, I much prefer the naturals.

Good point. It's for the woman to feel better about herself but mostly from how others see her. A girl living alone in a desert probably would feel the need to enhance her boobs?

What makes you think it is a psychological issue?
I am afraid by saying it is psychologic it separates the mind from the body. There would be us, inside a body; the body being a vehicle of a soul. The body would be superficial and the mind the true and noble us; and any attempt to get to another level improving ourselves would have to be an action on our mind.
But if we think that we are the whole thing and there are no separation between the mind and the body, doing something to improve one thing my help another but not as much as improving that 'other' thing directly.
Let say I'm a girl and don't like my boobs; I could become more and more interesting by educating myself becoming a greater person but my boobs will still be same. To me the only way to get out of this 'psychological issue' would be or (a) loving yourself and deny having ugly/unwanted breasts issue (b) to think 'it is superficial I'm so interesting people will not care about my boobs'. But is it true?

I disagree, I think most breast augmentation is done to make the woman feel better about herself.

you are right and I take back my "but" and would re-write like this : "It's for the woman to feel better about herself and comes a lot from how others see her. A girl living alone in a desert probably would feel the need to enhance her boobs"

...and I do not mean it in a negative way. I want to say that it is an act of self image (of course!) but if you didn't have to undress and show your breasts to others (to a lover for example) it wouldn't, I think, be such a big deal to yourself to be hot looking or not. Others are some kind of mirror of ourselves. I personally understand totally a girl doing a boob job.

I love them and plan on getting a pair in the next year or so. It will help me make more money stripping and I will look better in the bikinis I design and represent for mt company.

I think as long as the woman does it for herself and they look good, breast implants or natural doesn't matter. As long as it's not because "my boyfriend thought my boobs were too small" or something.

Who here wouldn't get a penis extension operation if you needed it, and if we could? I wouldn't mind an extra couple inches.

Yet, I don't get breast enlargement. The first picture shows women with beautiful natural breasts. But I do admit the enhanced photo's look okay. I think the 3rd is best. She was small to begin with, yes, but what guy in his right mind not enjoy what she had before? My wife has small breasts, but I've never wished they were bigger, and neither has she.

I'm pretty cool with what nature gave me. I'm no porn star but unless your woman has had a bunch of children, a giant ween would probably just hurt her.

So you like huge dicks but little boobs? Everyone has their own opinions.

As it was stated before, it depends what the reason would be. But in case of body acceptance issue, the source if very often society pressure. But sometimes the body rejection comes directly from the person who will absolutely need to change his/her body to get better (or, even better, get some therapy to understand where this rejection comes from - I'm talking here about a rejected part that is not a malformation of course).

My studies maybe. But again, all my post have been around the persons who chose surgery to fix a body acceptance issue which is a psychological one.
Of course, not every case of breast implants isn't the result that. The last post from StripperSierra would be a perfect counter example as this is clearly just a practical issue where it only comes down to "will I have surgery to increase my incomes ?".

I agree with you that body and "mind" might be linked and aren't two clearly separated entities. So the point is to find what the source of the problem is.
Yes, you could simply think that, in the case of body acceptance issue, since the person is blaming x part of his/her body, the source is obviously that part and changing it will solve the issue. The problem is it often isn't the case and the real source is psychological (could be social pressure, could be something else more personal). So the only thing you will then fix is the expression of that problem. It can be just fine but you can also expect the problem to come back later with another form (problem with another part of the body, or a completely different symptom). It's called displacement in English (not 100% sure about the term though).
It's not always as simple and the example of figure8me about a woman having no breasts at all is a tricky one because we have to wonder if the lack of "feminine traits" is the cause of the mental pain or if there is a psychological issue that leads to that reasoning beforehand. So everything isn't always clear and it's not as easy to tell where the problem comes from.

So I'll just say this : IF the problem is psychological, then I don't think it's a good idea to have implants thinking you're going to fix it for good.
For all the others reasons, it's personal, it's a matter of choice and I have nothing to say about it since I have no knowledge about re-constructive surgery or boob business marketing



I'm not even a boob person

Yes.....I do so agree.

As long as they do look great ( defined in this case as natural, but larger). And they will look great if the woman spends enough time doing her homework on the details.

Honestly...I can't really agree with this. I mean...yeah, ideally I'm sure everyone would like them to look at good as possible, but thats never a guarantee. I don't think you can separate the two. I don't think you can say, I really want breast implants to make myself feel more feminine, but I'll only do it if I can be guaranteed they'll look perfect. I think you can do your homework, and I think you can research and make the best decision based on that research, but ultimately you're gonna get whatever the doctor gives you.

I'd suggest F...but we already have one of those. :p

Eh, keep them natural.

Had too many conversations on this and too many stories ( bad a good) from friends on the communication and procedure to accept that it's just what the doctor gives you. I am thinking of women who take pictures to the doctor and interrogate ( correct word !) he or she on the probability of the customer getting exactly what she wants per her body and the photographic examples of what she thought was correct for her. And I think that way too. It's called due diligence, no ? Different than research and far different from rolling the dice on what might be the most affordable surgeon available. It's a major expense, physical drama ( trauma ?) in pursuit of a better self image.

Can't think something like that through enough in my way of thinking.....even if we are talking shoring up some little B's....lol !

Otherwise SP, I think we are on the same page.

I think more or less we are on the same page, but I think its unreasonable to expect perfection. You can do all the due diligence you want, but you can't research every doctor on the planet. "Look good" is just too subjective to be the defining reason whether to get a boob job or not.

I prefer an all natural woman myself not knocking the implants but to me natural is just better but its really what ever floats your boat as long as a woman has the sexual zest of a rabbit and is giving it to me I aint gonna judge her because she wants bigger breast I will celebrate the sexual adventure with her happily
