I think the common reasons for getting them might bother me. Insecurity is very unattractive, and body posititity is very attractive. But the actual fact of having breasts of a surgically increased size wouldn't turn me off.
On second consideration, I doubt it would bother me at all. Insecurity is unattractive, but body modification =/= insecurity. I was just mentally comparing it to a tattoo or unconventional piercing, neither of which are related to insecurity and both of which I find attractive, and realised that breast implants are not objectively different. Although I still prefer body modifications which don't appeal to conventional standards of attractiveness.
Honestly, if I was always a B cup, I probably wouldn't care. But being obese for so long, my breasts were the only positive aspect of my self image so losing them really hurt me.
The thing is, I'm a big believer in taking ownership of your self-esteem and learning to love yourself, rather than taking the quick fix and changing the part of you that you don't like. Implants would fix the immediate problem (the fact that you have low self-esteem), but they wouldn't treat the root cause (the fact that you aren't in control of your feelings).
I do sympathize with you. Do what feels right. But my advice would be working on your positive mental attitude rather than getting surgery.
I already got the surgery, though. I feel like I have the body I imagined myself to always want growing up as a bigger woman. I know why I felt insecure with small breasts, but I'm honestly 100% happy with my appearance now.
I'll just never understand how there are men who appreciate the fake beauty of colored hair, spray tanned skin, make-up, tattoos and piercings but fake breasts are a huge no-no.
What if they got it because they were poor, couldn't find work and so were trying to get a job as a stripper or something like that. Thats more desperation than insecurity.
The attitude of making a life-long change to your body to conform to the expectations of a boss for a job you only want because you're desperate doesn't attract me either. The money spent on those implants would be better spent training yourself for a job you do want. Living off the government's unemployment benefits for a while would be more appealing to me; at least that shows defiance.
Would you date a woman who has breast enhancements?
