04 Feb 09 - 11:14 PM (#2557619) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: Don Firth < rant on > When I was working in the production illustration department at Boeing years ago, there was a young woman who came through the department a couple of times a week carrying drawings to the blueprint machine to have them blueprinted. She was about five feet six or seven and generally well-proportion—except that she had a bustline that looked like she was smuggling (I'm not kidding!) a pair of basketballs. There were a few guys in the department who were juvenile enough to gawk and giggle and nudge each other and make comments. I'm sure she was aware of this, and she always looked to me as if she were in a perpetual state of embarrassment. I—and a few other guys, and women, too—felt embarrassed for her because with that kind of "endowment," she couldn't go anywhere without running into the same kind of stares and snickers. She was definitely a candidate for breast-reduction surgery, but this is hardly something that a guy can walk up to a woman and suggest. . . . Why someone would deliberately do something like that to herself and consider it attractive (attractive to what kind of man!?), I will never understand. < /rant off > Don Firth |

Had this woman just been naturally larger than the average woman, I would not have commented on it, anymore than I would comment on any other physical attribute or deformity.

Until one icy evening after work, she slipped and the weight of her breasts pulled her forward. She could not right herself and she broke both wrists in that fall. As soon as the casts came off her arms, she and one (maybe both) of her daughters arranged to have breast reduction surgery. |

I couldn't watch any more as I wanted to reach into the screen and punch her 'manager' and 'co-star' who seemed keen to exploit her until she was 70 years old.

He really did seem to be an odious little shit. |

I would've posted a link to the piece I read online, but it has a few pics of tits and fanny so thought the mods might not appreciate. Having said that, I don't think you need to be mentally ill, depressed or insecure to use your looks and your breasts (however large they may be) as a pragmatic investment. Lot's of girls in the glamour business are pretty savvy, and in no way 'vulnerable'. IF the woman above is making a sound living out of having the biggest breasts in the world, I guess that's literaly her business. Can't say I think it's a very useful thing for young girls to see all this stuff though. It is so distorting, and must inevitably (along with all the other Barbie bullshit saturating our tabloids and telly's) lead to various types and degrees of dismorphia in many young women. |

I don't see her as victim. What does worry me is that we have reached the state where the target in terms of sexual attraction can only be reached by surgery. That cannot be good for evolution and the survival of the species. Curiously the cult of mammary enhancement elevates sexual maturity as attractive in a woman, whereas Brazilians and armpit shaving elevate sexual immaturity, demonstrating a cultural paedophilia that we deny by opressing those who suffer from actual personal paedophilia.

05 Feb 09 - 02:44 PM (#2558218) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: Richard Bridge Doubtless there are men involved. That will probaby be because in general, mostly it is men who find women sexually attractive. Why such men find women with exaggeratedly large breasts attractive is to me more puzzling, but since breasts are a secondary sexual characteristic it is not surprising that they are focussed upon. I find the focus on depilation more surprising. However, it is not only men, but also women, who measure the "worth" of a woman by her sexual attractiveness to men and it seems that women compete on that ground. I am not aware of the gender of the surgical team who performed the operation. So, no, I am still not convinced that "men are to blame". |

But sex so taboo to a couple of people who find the topic repugnant that they want to close this thread down. So we'll start by eliminating this thread. Then maybe Azizi's topics on race relations. Then we can eliminate discussion of Israel and Palestine. Moving right along we can drop discussions of President Obama's tax cheaters. Or Bush or Democrats or Republicans.

Women can be, also, but with something like this, there is almost always men involved". I'm on record already in this thread as saying I've wanting to punch two men guilty of exploiting these women. I'm not keen on people exploiting others generally, even more so if women are coerced in some way to go to extremes of plastic surgery. However, I'm not sure what you're saying is quite as true as it once was and whilst Happy Hooker probably reflected much of the reality of the porn industry the best part of 40 years ago, I think over the last 10 years or so, the nature of pornography has changed. Yes, the same kind of things are still being sold and in a lot of cases people are genuinely being exploited - often, but not always, by men but I honestly don't believe it's as cut and dried any more. Whilst it's widely accepted that pornography has shaped the internet (it's been massively influential in driving a lot of technological advances) I think often it's missed that the internet and related technology has also shaped porn. A technological platform that's allowed and encouraged all manner of self-publishing has also allowed 'skin self-publishing' where people are now producing pornography that can cut out the traditionally exploiting middle-man, in much the same way that many musicians &c. utilise the platform. Also, the WWW part of the internet exploded after various cultural trends broke in many parts of the world. The UK saw 'Ladettes' and 'Girl Power' for example. Britain now has a culture where glamour models are something to aspire to and have celebrity status. Now it could be argued as to whether any of this was as empowering as some of the women involved actually thought it to be, but the fact remains, many women are now getting naked not because some man is telling them to, but because 'they want to' and 'it's their body' and so on. The last ten years or so has seen things like 'cam whores' appearing where women either strip or perform - of their own volition, with no exploiting middle-man - for things like items off 'wish lists' on commercial sites like Amazon or for payments directly into a paypal account &c. In these kinds of scenarios, it's hard to see who exactly is being exploited here, if anyone. You've also seen trends in pornography that buck particular stereotypes as to what women and women in pornography should look like. Whilst there are still a lot of women that feel pressured to look certain ways in order to sell 'product' - and often get plastic surgery in order to do so - the truth is the market for pornography is so diverse now that a woman with any kind of look, fashion or bodyshape could find a market to suit: it's not just women with freakishly big plastic tits or women who look like Barbie dolls. I'll admit that a lot of what I've mentioned here I really don't understand in that I'm not wholly comfortable with or don't actually agree with. For example, whilst if a woman wanted to become a glamour model, I've never looked down on it I struggle with the idea that society has allowed it to become a good thing in that it's something to aspire to rather than, say, a doctor/nurse/teacher &c. I'm not comfortable with young girls and teenagers having appropriated iconography like the Playboy logo, for example which I've seen on the clothing of pre-teen kids before now. However, as much as I don't like these things, perhaps I've got to admit that, in 2009, I'm one of those out of step now. I don't know! |

05 Feb 09 - 04:23 PM (#2558318) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: Sleepy Rosie Mmm, I do see Katlaughings point. And I understand why she would want what she perceives to be a thread demeaning to women to be closed. Yet I see it as a pertinent thread for this day. Not only for the reasons it was initiated, but for the responses it has already gleaned, and for the highly immediate issues it is already in its short life, initiating debate about. Yes, the thread was initiated not in a "let's discuss this sensibly" in a grownup fashion, but in a "Let's all joke about this circus freak" style fashion. But, irrespective of that - or indeed maybe because of that - it has already evolved into a worthwhile discussion of contemporary values around the uses, abuses and misuses of contemporary Western defined images of the "idealised" female body. I say let it stand. And I will contribute to it as it will no doubt rage on, in the best and most thoughtful ways that I am able. |

I think men that cannot see how our society objectifies women, and encourages mental weaklings to pander to this lowest common denominator are mental midgets. Anyone who cannot see that this woman is just an opportunist taking advantage of the proclivities of dimwits is in denial, or wants an issue so bad that they are using her as much as the men are.

05 Feb 09 - 04:55 PM (#2558358) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: Sleepy Rosie In response to Wrydolafr. I think that you are not out of step in 2009, I think that your concerns are intrinsic to a whole new evolving contemporary male female sexual dynamic. And it's one in which I genuinely see the difficulties for the modern man, trying to adapt his way through a plethora of contemporary cultural complexities and bullshit inherited - from a heap of blanket incurrances from, and then unintegrated anti-thetical reactions against - Christian dogma against sex, instinct and in particular the tempting female body. I personally have no problem recognising that young attractive women would wish to use their physical attributes for financial gain, any more than their intellectual or artistic ones. I also have no problem with men - or women - wanting to look at explicit imagery in order to gain some pleasure and excitement from them. Men and women want to fuck and to look at other people fucking. I do however think that the porn and glamour industry might think a little more often about what interests women sometimes. Then perhaps we might not feel so excluded or objectified in the whole business. I'd personally prefer to see the glamour and porn industry guided by the hands of older experienced women in the feild than men... Possibly because I prefer the idea of brothels run by older ex-pro 'madams' more than male pimps who only see the money and benefit, and never the immediate personal pain or cost of their industy. |

05 Feb 09 - 05:00 PM (#2558368) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: John MacKenzie You cannot legislate for the sort of people, of either sex, who consider what's between their legs is more important than what's between their ears. You cannot uninvent Barbie dolls either, but you could stop buying them! I wonder just what the relative figures are, regarding the sex of the parent who buys a Barbie doll for their offspring? According to some of the views already expressed on this thread, one would think it would be predominently fathers who buy them for their daughters. However I would be very surprised if that proved to be the case. |

05 Feb 09 - 05:12 PM (#2558377) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: Little Hawk Don't the kids usually ask for the Barbies themselves? Then what? Do you give your little girl a lecture about how demeaning those dolls are to females? If so, what will your little girl think? Will she think you're being a real tightass about it? Probably. Or should she even have to be confronted with those kind of burning political issues at that age? This is one of the reasons I'm sort of glad I didn't attempt to raise any children in this life. It's not an easy job, specially in a society full of televised advertising. |

05 Feb 09 - 05:32 PM (#2558392) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: wyrdolafr That message to Harpgirl was from me, logged-out. Sorry. SleepyRosie, I'm conscious of the 'dynamic' as you put it. How, for good or bad, things are changing in what it means to be a man or a woman in these times. I think that dynamic is pretty much created by a reappraisal or assessment of 'women' and that 'man' is pretty much shaped by trying to adapt or fit in around it. A lot of flux I think and a lot of uncertainty. Regarding the porn thing generally; no pun intended, but it's a hard issue. I think it's generally accepted that men and women often rely and respond to - for whatever reason - different forms of stimulus. I think that's why porn for women (in the way that porn is understood as a primarily visual medium), will always be a smaller niche market. As for women in porn, again a hard and mixed topic. If women want to appear in porn then, ultimately it's up to them - and I think that for the vast majority of them now, it is their choice, it's not like Linda Lovelace-style exploitation or something*. I'd rather they became doctors or scientists or artists or something, but again, this perhaps falls into the idea of telling women what they should or shouldn't be. *Prostitution's another matter though. I think forced recruitment is probably on the rise now that the EU has opened-up. |

This is exactly why many lotions marketed for women are packaged in tall cylinrical bottles that squirt out a white viscous liquid. So us guys are not the only ones falling for it. |

05 Feb 09 - 09:04 PM (#2558570) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: John on the Sunset Coast "But sex so taboo to a couple of people who find the topic repugnant that they want to close this thread down." I was notified that that sentence may make one think I am saying that some people don't like sex. That was not my intention. It is a poorly written statement which I wish to clarify: But the topic of women's anatomy is taboo to some who think it so demeans women that they want to close this thread down. I think the the lady in question is both tragic and comic. But it was the headline which included the "KKK' that hit my funnybone. Apparently it also hit the funnybone of the Los Angeles radio host as I noted above. |

05 Feb 09 - 09:38 PM (#2558585) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: Richard Bridge Interestingly, Bert, in the cosmetics industry, such bottles are called "phallics". I was quite taken aback when I first found out. I am of the view that the general thrust of this thread is that the body dysmorphia of the young woman featured is to most people not in fact erotic. I do not see why that message is insulting to women. |

05 Feb 09 - 11:17 PM (#2558628) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: Big Mick Actually, harpy, there are many things I find offensive, like your attitude whenever someone doesn't agree with you. I find that most offensive. As to the subject at hand, perhaps you could define for me what constitutes offense? The mere discussion of a woman who is all over the news, exactly by her design I might add, who has altered her body in a grotesque way? Is it because men are discussing it? Are they making gratuitous comments that are offensive? Have they compared her breasts to yours? Or mine? What is offensive? I find discussions that defend the actions of the British government in the North of Ireland offensive. I find threads attacking the hispanic population because they are trying to get to this country to do better for their families offensive. But that doesn't constitute a reason for closing the thread. That is why your nasty comments are ignored. Your reaction is typical of you and it has happened any number of times over the years when someone disagrees with you. Love, Mick |

06 Feb 09 - 01:17 AM (#2558676) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: Little Hawk Geez, Bert! I had never thought about those lotion bottles you mention in that respect....but, yeah. One more example of the endless barrage of both obvious and subliminal sexual messages in advertising. And then there are the popular women's magazines that one sees at the grocery store checkout. They invariably have headlines on the cover for at least one, often more than one article about sex: "New moves in bed that will have your man in ecstasy!" "Is your orgasm as good as it could be?" "What does he really want you to do for him?" "Twelve new positions you will LOVE!" "Who is he imagining in his head when he makes love to you?" Etc... It's incredible. Just go to your grocery store right now, go to the checkout and take a look at what the women's magazines have to say. Not as gross as the men's magazines, for sure, but equally obsessed with the same basic subject. Now, open your Yahoo webpage. Have a look at the "News" headlines. I bet you 9 to 1 odds that one of them has to do with sex. That's "news"? Well, whoever is in charge appears to think so...or is it just that they know darned well which bait keeps the fish biting? And how to keep us all distracted, doped, and compliant? |

06 Feb 09 - 01:21 AM (#2558677) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: Little Hawk Say, I just went to my Yahoo homepage to find today's sex headline in what passes for "the news". I was not disappointed. Here it is: TEENS CHARGED WITH SELF-PORN Teens distributing racy photos of themselves charged with porn. Perfect. I can only wonder what tomorrow's sex headline will be. If there isn't one, it'll be a miracle. |

06 Feb 09 - 06:55 AM (#2558815) Subject: RE: BS: Record-Breaking Breasts 38KKK From: VirginiaTam silly side on> Like J in Sunset... I found the KKK funny in that it is such a racially charged term why on earth apply to a bra size. When he mentioned cones I got visions of hooded madonnaesque voguers wriggling around in my head. Yeah I know! Surreal! Pain and lots of mixable pain killers does that to my brain. Maybe the thread should not be shut down due to potentially uncoplimentary objectification of women, but because of the racial implications of the term KKK. If someone mentions BNP and BBC and Excrement and a certain descendant of infamous tory altogether in the same post, that should do the trick. silly side off> mod elf - please amend or delete my comment as you see fit. going to find other thread bombs to try and defuse now Drugs!

I was checking out the latest issue of "Scientific American" and she zeroed in on a copy of "Penthouse." "My Gawd!" she whispered, her eyes growing wide. My friend, who convexed the front of a blouse or sweater in a pleasantly decorative but not extreme manner, showed my the centerfold and indicated the D-cup udders of the model. "Don't those things get in her way!??" Good question. But not in the way of her modeling career, obviously. As long as she holds up well. . . . Don Firth |
