How to Spot a Boob Job
More and more female celebrities find themselves assaulted by speculation about the authenticity of their breasts.... phrases to do with breast surgery are among of the most-searched words at major portals.... trend toward a voluminous body silhouette, and women prefer a deeper cleavage.
"...skinny women with very large breasts probably had them enlarged. It is true that Koreans' physique has changed remarkably over the years, but their breasts are still smaller than those of Westerners."

Just my two cents: I prefer the all natural route. Even if a woman has extremely small pillows, I prefer them to be natural. It says something about a woman and her confidence if she is secure they way she came.

On the other hand, I've seen Western documentaries about small-pillowed women who get implants or wear a realisitic-looking imitation chest. They say they get treated better in public. Some even get better job offers.

I don't like the way "It is true" is overused in Korean English. It usually is used to preface something controversial or dumb-assed, although here it doesn't do too much wrong.

It is true that this phrase is overused. As you know, this bothers a lot of native speakers.

Did they run this article in Korean, too, or just in the English version?

Either is OK with me, implants can look really good as long as I didn't pay for them.

I think anyone who gets implants is gambling for possible health problems down the road and needs to weigh those consequences--some womens' bodies/immune systems just don't take well to them and end up with leakage, lupus-type symptoms, and hardened tissue build-up. They eventually have to have them removed. The longer they're in the body, the higher the possibility of problems.

Then there's the cosmetic aspect of what I call "cartoon boobs". So many just don't look natural--comically so.

I'm gonna come out and make me be called gay by guys all over the world.. but.. I don't care...

I DON"T LIKE WOMEN WITH BIG BREAST.S. I have a multitude of reasons for this, which include:

(1) If she has big breast.s there is about a 50% chance she is also obese. Not my cup of tea.

(2) If she isn't obese and she has big breast.s then she might have been surgically enhanced, which does nothing for me (as in not good, not bad.. just nothing)

(3)She might have that horrible blue vein across the top. I hate that.

(4) If I actually like her, then in my head I think "In ten years time your bossom is going to be around your knees.." I can't help it, that's whats in my head the FIRST TIME I MEET YOU, sorry girl.

(5) I think guys who like big breasts are dumbasses, so that kind of reflects on the girl (dumbasses like you, so you must be a ...)

I'm sure I have lots more reasons but thats all for now.

I like girls with small or medium sized breasts. Thats my cup of tea. (No breast flat chest are also out because I think they are ladyboys). All I need is a handful (I've had a lot more and I don't like it) and at least a handful can stay perky. A pitcher full can't.

Bye bye big chested ladies on daves =) You'll have to chase someone else Wink

Nice is nice....there are no rules. If I like what I see, then it is good. I don't really care what anyone else thinks. Everyone notices a good looking pair of hooters walking by.
One things that is wrong is this.....it's all the same with the lights off...no it's not.

Generalisation Time.

The girls I've known/dated who had larger-than-average... bosoms (wonder if that gets beeped) have on the whole been friendlier, more fun to be with, more... I want to say outgoing, it's not that exactly... a sunnier disposition. Vivacious and contented. And that counts for a lot with me. The older I grow the less patience I have for girls with moody, demanding, pouting personalities. God, do I hate the pouting anymore.

Koreans will often toss out the old canard about the inverse relationship between chest size & IQ, sadly repeated even by the girls themselves. "Koreans think girls like me aren't very bright" Sad That's rubbish and probably perpetuated by a healthy dose of envy amongst the, um, less blessed.

Personally, bigger is better only up to a point, beyond which I begin to share the gay views of that well-known gay, Hyeon Een. Wink
