Actually reading the really strong negative reactions here has made me laugh.I got into this thread because Pliablemoose has posted briefly on this subject before.I understand how his wife is feeling about this issue and think it's wonderful that he's being so supportive of her.

The woman is looking for the restoration of size and configuration that were taken away from her by events that are similar in nature to accidents.Nobody would object if she'd had cancer surgery(another so called "natural event") but because her issues were caused via pregnancy then her desiring surgical help is somehow some sort of horrible psychological flaw?


I'm sorry but I don't agree with that viewpoint and I'm glad for her that she's got a husband who's supportive enough of her to want to help her get this situation corrected.There is nothing wrong with wanting one's appearance restored.Hearing all this negative stuff from men who's bodies will never be marred in the slightest due to pregnancy seems rather strange to me.

Hell, I was even nice to my lunatic ex (the one who moved to GB & has made our lives a living hell & cost us 10's of thousands of $ in family court) last week, current wife & I had discussed & agreed on offering her a plane ticket back to the U.S. if she ever needed one (If she was coming back to stay). She seemed so homesick the last few times we've talked, Mrs Pliable & I had discussed coughing up the $ for her if she wanted to come back, because she really doesn't have anyone else to turn to. You could hear the shock in her voice over the phone when I made the offer, she actually seemed appreciative.

Gotta love this thread, hookers, boobies, surgeons, penis mods & discussions about their relative sizes, tax deductions, self esteem, how can I throw politics in this & make it more controversial?

"Who do you trust more? GWB or Saddam? & should they be allowed to have plastic surgery to make themselves feel better about their bodies?"

😀 😀 😀



LOL,the real question is will OBL decide he needs plastic surgery and which US state will he decide upon for his procedure? Hehehe,imagine capturing OBL Bbecause he decided to come to Texas for a nose job🙂

Also, my final thoughts on this subject are this,having surgery with unrealistic expectations is a setup for real problems, breast augmentation won't fix a bad marriage or make you rich and famous.However it will hopefully improve a woman's appearance and make her feel less ashamed and self concious in form fitting clothing or while being intimate.In a relationship between two people who are already close this can be nothing but good for both parties.If something really bothered my partner about their appearance I'd consider their emotional well being important enough to be supportive of them in whatever manner they chose to try to correct the problem.
 
My wife has started talking about getting breast implants. She's currently a 36C, and that's plenty for me. I told her that if she really wanted them, that she would have to pay for them all by herself. I can think of better things to spend that kind of money on.

Anyhow, what most people don't realize is that breast implants are not a one time thing. As you get older your body changes, and you'll eventually need some kind of adjustment. You may even have to get them removed at some point down the road. Things could go wrong, or not.

If you really think its worth it... hell, go for it. You're the only one that has to live with your decision.

this will probably sound dumb, but have any of you guys ever had salt (like sea water) touch an open flesh wound before? It hurts like heck, so the thought that a saline implant might break is already making me wince.

It's 0.9% salt, same salinity as your normal body tissue, feel just like good old H20

actually it should feel better than good old h20. plain h20 won't hurt to bad but that chlorinated stuff, OMG, that's stuff is nasty to tender tissue.

saline on the other hand should be fine.
 
Mookow -- > "I love it when people can't see fundamental differences between things. blah...blah..blah"

The comments I made were directed towards those who say one should not mess with mother nature. The lines like God give me what he gave me and that's the way it should be. Breast Implants aren't natural. Etc. Etc. I never said anything about there not being a fundamental difference between Glasses and Implants. I merely stated that where do those "naturalists" they claimed to be live, I have never seen them.

So next time you waste your time pondering my statements, please read the posts previous to mine since generally when I comment I read everything first and then comment. That's probably why I only have about 95 messages here rather than 3403 (We both joined in April 2001).

So I leave you with "I love it when people's mouths (fingers in this case) shoot off before absorbing the information"

Now go work out...that June construction work is just around the corner there's a flag to be held in the highway.

Uh, I think those are deeper issues, and surgery isn't the answer.

I guess you dont see the distinction that is rather obvious, and where the fault in your argument is. It like arguing with PETA members. So I'm not going to bother. Let me just say that holding a flag on the highway and calling your job is construction like saying getting a pair of glasses is not working with "what God gave you" and no different than implants. You can say it, but you end up looking stupid.
