Chrome Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 I never thought of myself as a "typical Organissimo poster," but after seeing Tyra,* I couldn't resist this ... I'm in the "Keep it real" group: sometimes there CAN be too much of a good thing ... plus, the whole artificial enhancement angle kind of bothers me, too. It seems "unfair" or something. *And I can't tell with her. Quote
7/4 Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Keep it real... ...unless I can't tell they're fake. Quote
Dan Gould Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 I feel quite strongly on this question. Except for cases of medical necessity or a woman who feels severely "short changed", fake boobs are an afront to God and all right-thinking men. They are an abomination. Quote
doubleM Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 I wouldn't dismiss them so harshly, but I respect your right to...of course. Some gals probably get a huge boost of self-esteem after getting them. In my experience, there are over the top ones that look like they should be in a comic book...but there are also some more tasteful looking ones, probably done by surgeons w/ some aesthetic sensibility. They do feel weird, though. They should make mandatory some type of body-image therapy screening to those about to get them. Any volunteers? Quote

maren Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Speaking from the owner's perspective, I voted for "keep it real" because: the risks of any surgical procedure make me a STRONG believer in doing it for medical necessity (there are some things I believe are experienced as a true deformity and thus a medical necessity, e.g., implants for women who want them following mastectomy needed to treat breast cancer)how would they FEEL to me afterwards??? Sensation, sensation, sensation. I can't believe sensation is IMPROVED by implant surgery. breastfeeding? hello-o? good for baby, enjoyable for mom (IMHO) -- why mess with the optimum functioning of THAT? Quote
7/4 Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 I always thought a woman would loose sensitivity. Quote
RDK Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Keep it real... ...unless I can't tell they're fake. Well said! As long as they look good, I ain't gonna complain... Quote
PHILLYQ Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Aside from the safety problems, such as the horror stories of implants leaking and wreaking havoc on the implantees, most women who have them don't seem to know when to stop! There are so many that look more like flotation devices rather than breasts. So what if a woman is not big there? KEEP IT REAL! A side note for those that peruse the sports section(at least in NYC tabloids): ever see those ads for the strip joints that advertise those women with measurements like 66DDDD- 25-36? That grosses me out! I wouldn't go to see that, no less pay to see that. Quote
Quincy Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Keeping it real with an asterisk (not including mastectomies.) Some of you might enjoy this awful plastic surgery site. Why look, there's Tara Reid! Quote

That grosses me out! I wouldn't go to see that, no less pay to see that. I think, overall, that our perceptions regarding implants are skewed due to the fake breasts that us guys actually see. That is, those way-too-large and obvious fake boobies we see (or so I'm told ) on the young women in strip clubs, tabloid ads, and R-rated "skinimax" movies. If done well - and here in L.A. there are a lot that have been "done well" - you really don't notice the fake ones that much. They don't stand out - er, uh, you know what I mean - like notoriously fake porno boobs. I think most women do know "when to stop." But it's the ones who don't who have the boobs that we actually get to see. Or so Catesta tells me... Quote
doubleM Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 Jesus! That website gave me a stomach ache. Boy George's nose looks there's a nickle stuck in it's tip! What a freak!!! Quote

connoisseur series500 Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 I didn't vote because I don't have a strong opinion either way. Up to the ladies, I would imagine... Quote

Indeed. You hit the nail on the, ahm, head. (In the current context, that sounds dirty somehow, but it isn't meant to.) Edited July 8, 2004 by BruceH Quote

Not that it makes it any easier, but that was actually Boy George's drag queen friend Marilyn. As far as I know Boy George's nose is as...well, as it was, just a few years older. Beware of the picture of Mickey Rourke's chin & cheek implants. And of course, Ms. Love or any of the "duck lips" pics. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 (edited) Keep 'em real, please, please, please. Nothin' wrong with B-cups and even A-cups in my book. Hey, women come in all shapes and sizes, and variety is the spice of life. And while we're on the topic... Link: The Mystery of Britney's Breasts Edited July 8, 2004 by Rooster_Ties Quote
RDK Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 Link: The Mystery of Britney's Breasts Yeah. Seen that before. She either has zippers installed for no-fuss removal or bra technology is further advanced than we all thought (and thank god for that)... Quote
