I used to scoff at fake boobs until I got my hands on a pair.
They are great and men love them; don’t believe those guys that are saying they don’t like them, they are playing some bs game of trying to be sophisticated and deep.

Aye. And as if that were not enough, there’s well done boobjobs and badly done boobjobs.

And even the instinctive stop-and-stare reaction depends upon the presentation, so to speak.

OK, yes, so the big’uns are useful for _ **that** _. Further research on it requires a grant to cover for the two-overpriced-drink minimum and rail tips.

I believe most of them are being sincere. Many people are turned off by unnecessary body modification. Also, too many enhanced breasts are \*\*\*badly \*\*\*enhanced and you cannot blame members of the public for giving up on the idea. People may also feel the enhanced ones are interesting in passing (e.g. at the club as per the above comment) but may not care for them for the everyday long run.
Going back to the OP, well, I suppose it’s only human to wonder as to the frame of mind of someone who does such a major enhancement for the sake of being more attractive to the other person, when s/he is not exactly flush with money. But that’s separate from whether men like or don’t like bigger or enhanced.

What is it exactly that you expect them to _do_? Line dancing? Triple axel double toe loops?

Breasts are completely unimportant to me.
I have a major preference for how your butt and thighs look though. And of course a pretty face.

people often are too casual about personal safety. often people don’t like to wear floatation devices while in a boat even if they aren’t good swimmers. lower density body parts could be a large benefit here.

I prefer small, natural breasts. Not that anyone asked, I also prefer a full bush. (Or at least as close to full as practical)

Nasty pun left in because. If she works in a job that involves being naked, the extra time would be so the wound could heal. I’ve seen a woman in such a job who bounced those puppies around too early and the scars stretched apart so they were 5mm wide, with inflamed tissue on both sides. It was horrifying, like watching the Bride of Frankenstein dance.
FTR, Elsa Lanchester, who played the Bride, did some nude modelling in her youth and was a solid C cup, though they did not interest her husband, who was gay. As for sub-A, those women still have all their nerve endings and it can be fun for both participants. But I’m not Charles Laughton.

Sure it’s nice to have the Big Boob Experience at least once in your life. But it’s not something I’d consider important in a mate.
Isn’t that how some women view big penises?

I’m more attracted to smaller breasts. Large ones often, I might say usually, just look grotesque. I remember back in the day when _Oui_ magazine came out. All those small-breasted women as a counterpoint to _Playboy_. _Oui_ definitely had the better-looking girls.
Is that rag still published anymore?

Shape and surroundings are more important than actual breast size.
Think of Mt. Fuji. It’s only 12,000 feet, but it’s perfectly symmetrical, sitting alone on a flat plain, and therefore looks like the biggest, most beautiful thing in the world.
Then take Mt. Everest. It’s 29,000 feet, but it’s surrounded by other huge mountains, to the point that well into the 20th century, there wasn’t even a consensus that it’s the tallest mountain in the world.
A nice symmetrical pair of A or B cups on a flat stomach are lovely.

Maybe the same reason I focus on asses: almost all women have breasts, and, large or small, almost all of them are pretty damn cool.
Asses, on the other hand, vary widely in quality, and therefore invite conoisseurship. 🙂

You make a good point and I agree 100%

Men can get pectoral enhancement, too.

It was the “sisterhood” mentality of feminism that lead the OP to state “I fully support her decision.”
Why fully support a decision to allow your sister to be objectified?
_We as women are tired of being objectified but we also own our bodies and thus support each other putting silicone into our breasts to augment our physical appearance._

I personally prefer larger, but not fake. All else being equal and given a choice (like that would ever happen), if it came down to breast size, big and fake would lose out to small but natural (assuming I knew before the decision had to be made).
