      It's hard to have self confidence when everyone around you is telling you your breasts are too small! The defining female part of your anatomy is inadequate. You suck as a woman, nobody would truly want you, guys will always be "looking" at someone else. Blah blah blah. It's easy to fall for it all, roll over, give up, and get the boobs. The point is women have to fight this crap and be strong. But it's hard.

    I want them. I'm almost 50 and have lived with diminished boobs since two children (breastfed) and one lumpectomy in between. I am happy with my body considering my age and I want them and I will see what I can do to get them for my 50th birthday. No man in my life, they are just for me! How I look and how I feel about myself with regard to how I look etc. I mean there comes a point where fitness does not prevent sag.

    To each her own. If it makes you feel comfortable, you are healthy enough, and understand the risks, so be it. There is enough pressure placed on women. If your selfesteem is boosted, who cares? It's an individual desicion and one in which others shouldn't cast stones.

    As a mother of 3 young children, having had sagging breasts and stretch marks, the "Mommy Make-Over" was and is definitely worth it. To those opposed, I respect your opinion. To those who have had it done, congratulations for doing something for yourself. To those considering it, go for it!

    Ok...so the women are getting the boob jobs to boost their egos because of low self esteem or lack of bedroom talent to keep their men interested. I heard the husband of a former Playboy (or was it Hustler) centerfold had a huge poster of her hanging over the bed...is he making love to the illusion image on the wall or to the actual female who posed for it in reality? I want to hear what the men are getting to boost thier egos besides hair implants. Goose and gander time here!

    Dear wikiman, You say, very indignately I might add, don't judge other people's choices, and then you go off being the biggest judgemental one of the bunch! You judge the guy who gets a divorce? I suspect that you are talking from experience. And quite frankly if you sound half as much of a female dog in real life as you do in your post, your husband didn't get out any time soon enough.

      LOL......that's the pot calling the kettle black.

    • Posted By: wikiman @ 12/17/2007 7:41:00 PM

      Sorry alltaken, I am a man who has been happly married for over 35 years. I wasn't judging anyone. All I said was that society doesn't judge Viagra, hair implants or a red car. You are the only one that can allow someone to judge you, rather your an immature slob or a saint. Take a chill pill and try not to read your life into other peoples comments.

    I'm 42 and have been mulling around getting a boob job for 8 years. So this is nothing new. I know I'm not the only mother ready to get her cleavage back. I This is what I tell people who are anti breast augmentation. I say, If every time a man got a woman pregnant and his *** shrunk an inch every time..I know for a fact we'd have all kinds of pills and operations to enlarge ***'s. There also wouldn't be that man accidental pregnancies.

    • Posted By: alltaken @ 12/17/2007 7:42:32 PM

      SO the man gut all those sluts who unzip their pants pregant? All those sluts are saints. People are pitiful. NO responsibility for their own actions. It acts two, you know. No, of course you don't know, you are too busy being hateful and playing the blame game. pitiful.

      • Posted By: mcdebby @ 12/17/2007 8:58:00 PM

        "Alltaken".........I've noticed that you comment to most people's posts. And, usually, you're very negative. Sounds like you have issues of your own. Instead of being such a hater, why don't you grow up?

      • Posted By: bgmach @ 12/17/2007 7:52:26 PM

        alltaken: Try communicating in some form of English next time, your comments may be easier to read.

  • Posted By: mcdebby @ 12/17/2007 7:14:34 PM

    I feel that it is not so much the fault of the women, but of society as a whole. If our society honored women as they grow older, wrinkles and all, I doubt there would be so many hangups. Just look at what we do to celebrities who are not a size 0. Kate Winslet (size 8), Britney Spears and her belly bulge after having two kids back to back (okay, so she has a host of other issues), and most recently the flack about Jennifer Love Hewitt's size 8 rear. Is it really that bad to be a size 8? According to popular magazines, yes. It's a hard thing to live up to for both celebrities and the rest of us.

    • Posted By: alltaken @ 12/17/2007 7:31:27 PM

      Oh, sure always someone elses fautl. Sure, dirtly stinking men force women to wear high heels. You don't suppose that it has anything to do with insecure women desiring to be noticed would have anything to do with it?

      • Posted By: mcdebby @ 12/17/2007 8:55:10 PM

        I don't think, for many women, it has anything to do with insecurity. Most of the women I know that have had plastic surgery are very confident women. Just like a 'dirty stinking man [sic]' to assume it's insecurity. If you don't think society doesn't portray an unhealthy view of what the perfect woman looks like, you've got blinders on.

    What in the Wide World of Sports is wrong with all of you women wanting to increase your breast size. You have been lied too and duped. My wife has had 2 heart surgeries and Breast Cancer. I love her just the way she is. I call her scars Battle Scars. I love her and am attracted to her because my love for her is based upon more than just physical. I am committed to her and thank God for bringing her into my life. If you ladies are married or looking to get married , etc and think your Man will love you more if you have big breasts (and there are men that think this way) these men love you and are attracted to you for all of the wrong reasons - they do not love you for who you are, but only how you look - and you degrade yourself to subimit to such ignorance.

            I have a life, not a sad one like you. I love what I was born with and don't feel the need to make changes to make myself "happier"

                Why don't you get a "life" like you have told me a hundred times. Do you have anything else to say?

                • Posted By: right-on @ 12/17/2007 8:39:04 PM

                  whatever,just mind your own

                    You should listen to your own advice. You are the one attacking me for having an opinion. If you have something to actually say, that would be fine, but all you can do is jump me.

                • Posted By: goobydoo @ 12/17/2007 8:43:01 PM

                  Must have listened. Thank goodness!

    My breasts have always been huge. I got tired of them hitting my knees when I walk to the refridgerator so I took out a small steak knife, sliced a 3" incision in the top right corner of both of my breasts. I then proceeded to insert the tube of my husbands wet/dry vac very slowly and turned it on. I then took a wire hanger and stuck it in with the dry vac and twisted and turned it to help dislodge some of the fat to be sucked out. I did this to both of my breasts for about 30 minutes a breast. When they reached the size I liked I simply used my husbands utility knife to manually cut away the excess skin and used his blow torch to corterize the cuts. Although this was very painful and I passed out 1-15 times doing it my breasts now are smaller. They look like cottage cheese and melted cheese but they no longer hit my knees!!! Ohh, my husband loves them too, which is why he saves them for future use!!!

    it sounds like goobydoo has nothing better to do than to *** about other people and what they are doing

    • Posted By: Ballerina @ 12/17/2007 8:52:12 PM

      Maybe goobydoo knows a little more about this topic than you do and is interested in helping others by steering them away from a bad path.

    IT'S NOT ABOUT PLEASING MEN ITS ABOUT PLEASING YOURSELF. HAD THEM DONE LOVE THEM WISH I DID THEM WHEN I WAS 20.

    • Posted By: jacy-e @ 12/17/2007 8:48:31 PM

      changing your breasts wont change your self esteem. you should be comfortable in your OWN body before you either decide its not good enough, or that you simply want to change it for yourself... my opinion is that the latter is the only uderstandable (not to mention disgutingly moronic) reason to get plastic surgery. if you realy are doing it for your self, MORE POWER TO YA SISTER! if not... then i hope your genetic material to NOT be passed on to the future generation

    I'm distracted by the title of the article, and what it implies... Baby boomers are now in their sixties, correct? Was the 'Baby Boom' not during the fifties?

  • Posted By: Wrdfrk @ 12/17/2007 8:35:30 PM

    women who get plastic surgery as an act of self empowerment drive the feminists craaaazzzzyyy! We're not talking about a simple procedure here. We're talking about putting a foreign substance in a woman's body. And many, many women have gotten really sick. Why else do you think DOW corporation went bankrupt rather than go to court to face all those sick women? And have silicone implants improved since then? No!What's changed is a government and FDA totally in the pockets of those with the deepest pockets. The FDA's OWN scientists recomended AGAINST silicone. I'm glad the women here who got them have not gotten sick, but there are plenty of women who have.

    • Posted By: Ballerina @ 12/17/2007 8:43:37 PM

      Agreed. If silicone implants have been perfected (as you noted they have not been), whey would manufacturers be trying to make completely new innovations? Australia is piloting titanium covered implants. Is that because the currently marketed products are beyond reproach? They know there is something wrong that needs fixing, but they're doing it quietly while continuing to use what they've got.

  • Posted By: nwlaurieb @ 12/17/2007 7:46:15 PM

    I kind of resent the conclusion that there is such a thing as a "normal" breasts. It's ideas like this that perpetuate some women feeling something is wrong with them. This is certainly a personal choice, and I do not propose to deny anyone that freedom. I'm just saying that I resent the fact that since I'm very small-breasted (i've never had children, just born this way!), I'm considered not "normal". If you want to do something for yourself, by all means, go ahead. But please don't project your self-image onto me or anyone else. That's why it's called a "self" image! It's about you and no one else.

    • Posted By: Ballerina @ 12/17/2007 8:33:19 PM

      No doubt. To me, what I look like IS normal. SMALL IS NORMAL.

  • Posted By: Sunshine69 @ 12/17/2007 8:33:03 PM

    I agree with these women I am 38 years old and have 4 children. I underwent baratric surgery 5 years ago and I look like on of the boys. It is so embarassing when my 14 year old daughter has breast larger than mine. Is there a miracle pill out there

  • Posted By: kickboxergrl @ 12/17/2007 8:27:05 PM

    I'm 47 and have been small chested my whole adult life. I work out and stay in shape. I don't know about the rest of the country, but living in California, there's a lot of pressure on women to have the perfect body... especially big breasts. There are so many images in the media of women highlighting their big breasts. I find it really superficial and annoying. Although it would be nice to have perfect breasts, I wouldn't risk my health over it.

  • Posted By: fifty years young @ 12/17/2007 8:25:04 PM

    I'm planning to age with grace and not go for any 'enhancements' to my body.A color rinse for my hair is my only concession to my changing body. I think that women who go for these procedures have lost (perhaps never had) confidence in their own sexuality. I believe they are going to look a bit ridiculous in 25 years or so when the rest of their bodies follows nature's course but the 'falseness' of breast is going to be laughable.

    I have men who accept how I look but admire my talents and personality more. The fake look most women are falling prey to because they believe it binds their husbands and boyfriends to them. I prefer to have honest friends than be dependant on implants.
