I wasn’t happy with my boobs so I decided to get a boob job. A lot of people judge me for my decision because they think I’m shallow and vain, but screw them. I’m proud of my decision and frankly, it’s no one’s business but mine.
- My body, my choice. That’s kind of all there needs to be said about the matter. How does my getting a boob job affect anyone else’s life? It doesn’t. I know they say opinions are like butt holes in that everyone has them and they all stink, but I really don’t need anyone else’s judgment on what I do what my own body.
- I don’t judge other women for their bodies—this was strictly a me thing. One of the main arguments I hear is that my getting a boob job is telling other women that their bodies aren’t good enough. That’s absolutely ridiculous and I think everyone knows it. If I dyed my hair green, am I telling every girl with brown hair that her hair color isn’t good enough? No! I’m doing something that makes me happy and more confident. That’s really all there is to it.
- My new boobs boost my confidence. Before my boob job, I often felt down about my appearance. Sure, looks aren’t everything, but anyone who says they don’t have things about their physical selves that they don’t wish they could change is lying. Since my boob job, I’ve really started to love my body and my confidence has skyrocketed. While many people would tell me I should learn to love the skin I’m in, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with making physical changes as long as they’re for your own benefit.
- People get body modifications all the time, so how is this any different? I’ve heard it all when it comes to my breast implants, but my favorite gripes are that they’re fake and unnatural. Well, so are piercings, tattoos, and wild hair colors. You might as well stop using beauty products or waxing if you really want to be au naturel. There are so many things we do to our bodies that aren’t “real” but for some reason, breast implants get the most scrutiny. They may be fake, but they’re my fake boobs and I love them.
- They make my clothes fit better. A lot of the people who judge my choice to get breast implants are men, weirdly enough. Of course, they don’t generally have the issue of trying to fit into a one-size-fits-all dress or top only to discover that it was made for people with actual breasts. Getting a bit of extra chest helped open up so many wardrobe options for me.
- I feel sexier, which has had a great effect on my sex life. It’s hard to feel sexy when you’re flat as a board. Getting a breast augmentation really helped make me feel more feminine and sensual. It’s not like I did something crazy like going from a 34A to an F-cup or anything, but I did get breasts that felt more in tune with my body. I don’t regret a second of it, especially since my partners seem to really love them as well.
- They don’t actually look fake—most people would never know. Since I didn’t go overboard in terms of sizing, my new boobs are in proportion to the rest of my body and actually look really natural. Of course, it shouldn’t matter even if they did look fake, but they actually look super natural. if that’s the look I was into, but my point is that most people wouldn’t even know if I didn’t tell them. The stigma is pointless.
- I would recommend the procedure to anyone—and I’d tell her not to care about anyone’s opinion either. I had a great experience with my augmentation, from the surgery itself to the recovery and the end result, and I’d absolutely recommend the procedure to any woman who was feeling the same as I was before I did it. I’d also tell her not to give a damn what anyone else says about it. If you’re happy, that’s all that matters—and I’m definitely happy.
