This story from England mirrors my experience. I’ve always been slender/average, but when I was nursing my children, I had a very impressive rack. The attention men gave me was absolutely incredible even though I was always dressed modestly and had NO interest in any man except my husband. It made me realize that the experience of well-endowed women and more average women is completely different.
So it’s very easy for me to understand why a woman might get implants if she wants to attract men. And if her doctors assure her that they are safe, she has no reason to think there might be anything wrong with them. I feel sorry for these poor women.
As a man I can hardly figure all this out, but I will say that my wife is slender and tiny busted, even when she was nursing our children, and she has always — always — had deep-rooted sensations of inadequacy because of this. She can’t find clothes to fit her, has no cleavage, etc.
I’m not sure pity is the right response, because as humans we are wonderfully imperfect; and as I’ve told her for 26 years, if a tiny bust is her greatest flaw she is indeed blessed with a loving husband, three wonderful children, excellent health, classy looks, naturally low blood pressure, and much, much more.
But I’ve never been dismissive about her feelings about this. She has talked about implants for 20 years, and each time I told her emphatically “don’t do it for me because I love you the way you are.” She usually says that women don’t necessarily address or adorn themselves for men, including their husbands. It is here I have to stop talking and just listen.
Not once have I wished my wife to have a large bust. But I’d be lying to say that I don’t appreciate a nice rack like every other man. I just have to suppress my biological urges and stop my eyes from goggling out. Go figure.
