I used to be vehemently opposed to any kind of surgical augmentation. I never saw why anyone would subject themselves to so much pain, all over something (that I viewed as) so silly and superficial. I mean, a girl's going to do this to herself just to change the way OTHER people perceive her?? Ridiculous!
But then I got to thinking, we all do things like that anyway (getting braces, buying fashionable new clothing, wearing contacts, going the gym, etc.) to change the way people perceive us just so that we ultimately "feel better" about ourselves. So basically, a breast augmentation is really just on the far end of the spectrum of shit people do to themselves and it's all a personal judgment call as to what is "too much."
So now I say: to each his or her own.
All I know is that I would never ask/want a girl to get implants. In fact, even though I'm not so dead set against implants anymore, I think I would still rather my gf not have them, regardless of how small her breasts are. They're just breasts, after all. Inner beauty + Performance is definately more important!
