Man, this thread has taken off. I predict some competition for the LOTR thread.

Boobies sell.

I’m gonna have to go ahead and disagree that natural breasts are **always** the best. [Some of us](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=131517) aren’t proportioned very well [naturally](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=149759).

I realize that everyone has their own preferences on body types - to each their own.

I love breasts. Natural breasts, that is. I can’t stand to look at fake boobs. I don’t really like naturally big ones most of the time either. Not everybody who loves breasts loves big ones.

Every fashion accessory gets taken to ridiculous excesses at times. Breast implants were originally invented for reconstructive purposes and then marketed to women with really small breasts who wanted something more substantial. Then, some women went insane and decided they wanted to walk around with heaving beach-balls on their chests, and you end up with nutballs like Lolo Ferarri.

Yeesh.

But it’s not like women hadn’t been disfiguring themselves before. Not too long ago, corsets were all the rage. Women would suffer tremendous pain, break ribs and damage internal organs to get their figure streamlined a little bit more. All in the name of fashion.

And in China for thousands of years, until very recently, women bound their feet so they wouldn’t grow. If you’ve ever seen pictures of a grown Chinese woman with disturbingly little feet you know how bizarre such societal pressures can be.

And let us not forget the men of the 1980s, who had to out-do each other with bigger and bigger parachute pants.

I should mention that the big bubble boobs that I’m sick of also come from the unbelievable clothes that the ladies of entertainment stuff themselves into. I’m not just tired of fake boobs everywhere; I’m also tired of the “push, pull, and tape your boobs into place” fashions as well.

(Um, **Joe** , I don’t think I actually asked a question.)

And you can tell the difference – Laura San Giacomo and Marg Helgenberger, for instance, have big almost unto pendulous breasts, (when “Just Shoot Me” is on I sometimes want to yell at the screen “Why can’t you put poor Laura in a good bra!!!”) but they’re natural, and hence, aren’t bubble boobs. They aren’t as rounded on the top as they are on the bottom, they start with a downwards slope rather than an upwards swell – even in a good bra.

Hence the difference between real and “bubble” – natural breasts, whether small or large, don’t defy gravity because of internal underpinnings which push them in unnatural directions. And thank heaven. One’s chin ought not bump into her cleavage when she yawns.

I think a lot of it is her posture, as well. I sometimes want to yell at the screen, “Don’t you realize how awesome you would look if you would stop slouching and **stand up straight** , dammit!!”

I guess I will be the first scumbag on this thread today:

I like fake boobs better than real ones. I like the fact that they stay in place when the bra comes off. Here’s my take on it.

Natural Big Boobs - Good for titty fuck’n and thats about it

Fake Big Boobs- Not so good for titty fuck’n but they look better and I don’t like titty fuck’n anyway

So the winner is…

FAKE TITTIES!!!

i love my boobs (most of the time) but i sure as hell wouldn’t have CHOSEN them.

they are…large.

i cannot undertand the big fake booby thing. they DON’T LOOK REAL.  
you don’t think, “wow what a great pair” you think “who’s her surgeon?”

they ruin the line of clothing, it’s hard to look classy and/or intelligent, and you really don’t help the cause of the women who LIKE having smaller boobs…or the women like me who have the real ones, and are assumed to have bought them.

get over it.

Gotta be natural. But then, I’ve never felt fake ones so I’m judging by looks. I reckon they wouldn’t feel as nice as real ones though.

Boobs are great. Wish I had them.

Having seen pictures of **featherlou** , I would highly doubt it. And you know what? Naturally MASSIVE TITS don’t look like big round balls. What are you, twelve?

I can’t tell from the link. How big are his boobs?

As for me, it’s all ablout the proportions and the overall effect. Big, little, I love 'em all. As for fakes, if you can plausibly deny their fakeness, I love 'em too.

As proud founder of the SDMB’s long silent \*Itty Bitty Titty Committee," I have to disagree with the “guys love them, can’t get enough of them, bigger is better” statement as well.

Of the girl’s I have had experience with, they’ve either had A cups or smaller, or D cups or larget, and you know what? The small ones are just as amazinging and wonderful as the big ones. Sure, big ones are nice, but the best appeal about them is that you can gawk without getting caught as easily. Small breasts are wonderful, and much more enjoyable to deal with when fooling around. And, a good percentage of the time, they just look much better.

One of the anchors at work has a photograph of he and Pamela Anderson before she had her’s reduced, and my GOD, it’s absolutely frightening. I don’t know if I’m just not paying enough attention, though, but I don’t see too many fake breasted women on t.v. that much anymore, but I do agree wholeheartedly with the **featherlou** ’s post about the outfits being aboslutely ridiculous. Hey, I’m a young, single, horney guy, and it’s nice to see some skin, but the fashion of Hollywood is getting waaaaayy too out of hand.
