1. Well, one "beauty" on last night's "Beauty and the Geek" said she'd get hers paid off
in free drinks.

40. It's really bad when men get breast implants, like Brian Zembic

http://www.maximonline.com/articles/index.aspx?a_id=6641

In 1998 Maxim introduced Brian Zembic, the man who cashed in on a $100,000 dare by getting breast implants for a year. So, eight years later, how come he’s still got ’em?

21. the worst part of it
is hearing horror stories from friends of mine... about guys who see their boobs once, then want them to keep their bra on for sex later

*sigh*

i admire their courage.

i really could. not. take. that. shit.




i can't fault any woman for spending thousands of dollars on her boobs.

25. ?
'i can't fault any woman for spending thousands of dollars on her boobs. '

I can. and really I don't believe it's a 'fault', it just not understandable to me. I am so thick in so many ways.
if a woman goes to those lengths to enhance her boobs just to get guys that are shallow and define her by boobdom, what's the point?

28. i don't know...
all i'm saying is i've heard SO much crap about real boobs... from men AND women...

i can see firsthand how having such an expensive, invasive and risky surgery might be considered worth it by someone who was that committed to feeling better about their body

32. whatever happened to just having sex?
I mean, do all these people who complain about boobs, pubic hair, whatever... have a lot of sex? And if you have a lot of partners, wouldn't the thrill be that no one's body is exactly like anyone else's?

54. I've wondered the same thing
>do all these people who complain about boobs, pubic hair, whatever... have a lot of sex?<

I also wonder what the complainers truly look like IRL. They're so obsessed with perfection that they can't see the person standing in front of them.

IMHO, YMMV,
Julie

34. I think those women should look for real men
there are plenty of them out there.
my guy loves my unperfect breasts (and I love many imperfect parts of him as well) and he would be mortified if I took a surgeons knife to myself.
but I do have a partner and maybe that's a diffferent thing. But looking back when I was single, I really really didn't have a seconds worth of thought that I would be more desireable or more whatever if I had different or better breasts. I was me first, the boobs sorta comes along wth the package. take it or leave it.

38. It's called having some sexual maturity.
Shouldn't sex be about pleasing your partner and not about making unrealistic demands?

but, like you, I have a partner. If not, I'd be like redqueen and just go without (a partner that is! I can have undemanding sex by myself!)

Edited on Fri Sep-21-07 06:59 PM by pokerfan
I saw that Beauty and the Geek.

One of the women referred to her boob job as an investment! All the men who will now buy her drinks in the future will eventually pay for her surgery.

She is smart.

Don't know whether to laugh or cry so I will just: :rofl:

26. "You're welcome", to both of you.
Myself, I consider augmentation to the the equivalent of Tammy Faye Bakker's makeup. I just can't get around it.

If you like the person for who they are, then there's no problem. I'm speaking for me. I don't see how someone who likes themself could do the Tammy Faye. I'll freely admit that there are always exceptions to any rule, and damn, I've been wrong before, but I'd likely leave a woman who lied, or omitted the truth, about such things.

And I'm extremely serious about love. I want someone who is happy with themself as they are, and as they will be.

What's right for me isn't right for others. I don't have to call anyone names for having a difference of opinion, even an extremely strong one. But thanks.

However, I can't judge another person for what he or she chooses without walking a mile in their shoes.

I am happy that the love of my life is all-natural. In fact, there isn't anything fake about her.

31. "I can't judge another person for what he or she chooses without walking a mile in their shoes."
I didn't know you had a thing for pumps and high-heels. But I kid.

That's an excellent statement, and I respect your philosphy. I try to do so as well, so if you ever see me going off on someone, it's because I -do- feel that I understand them, know where they're coming from and why, and find the intent egregious.

I've met a lot of damaged women (I attract them) as well as some very well-adjusted women. I wish for every individual to realize the total extent of themselves, and to transcend fear and doubt, and to live in joy, which is our natural state. When I see a woman who has edited herself, I worry about what insecurity has driven her to it. And if it will rear in ways where I cannot be of assistance.

My unreasonable expectation is that people, and myself, can overcome such things through internal work, and not external compensation.

If you already love someone, no worries, you're already there.

Eventually women will be totally unrecognizable.

35. I would never consider getting breast implants
On the other hand, I have always had above average sized breasts in comparision to the rest of my body.
I understand why someone who has below average breasts for their size might consider getting implants, although I think that it is unfortunate considering the health risks.

59. I'm excited to get mine.
Been dancing without for ...what..12; 13 years? They dropped a bit after I breastfed. I've got a great doc picked out too..
Enjoy that lady for all of her great assets, including those! I'm sure she's cool.

Oh, and just in case anyone else is reading this: I am very happy with myself. It IS an investment; a business one; and a very, very carefully considered one after ^^^^ many years of working in close proximity to those who have had them..good, bad, and ugly. Still want them. Call me shallow or whatever; I don't care. You're not walking in my five inch heels...
