I see a lot of women whose breasts sag after breastfeeding who get implants rather than lifts because it’s a lot less invasive with less scarring and they want to restore volume also. I haven’t yet seen anybody saying they prefer sagging breasts, especially what the plastic surgeons call torpedo breasts or snoopy-nose breasts. Besides, some of these women want to be able to wear something strapless or backless or a swimsuit without having to worry about support. Just saying that there are other reasons to get implants than just to increase size.

Depends on the quality of the workmanship and materials. I’ve ‘handled’ both good and bad. The good are really good and I’d defy anyone to make a complaint ESPECIALLY in the act of whatever is allowing for the breast fondling! The bad ones can be temporarily distracting.

What pisses me off is pushup bras. You expect one thing (fake or not) and end up with potentially something else entirely. It’s the mental switch in the heat of the moment that is the issue!

We get a lot of pc crap here. “See Honey, I really like your breasts \<that hang down to your knees\>, you don’t need that boob job. I’ll prove it, I’ve posted this on the internet. See?”

People lie all the time, to themselves and to others, or they just haven’t thought through the reasons for their actions to give a complete answer.  
What is similar is people accepting such answers because it fits with their worldview (see pc comment above) rather than looking deeper for the truth.

Me and my sister ( we were very opposite in boobage) tested this theory many times, and proved it to be, oh so true

Never mind them. You responded to me.
