From what I'm seeing thus far, the female side of this debate is that wimmenz look at their bewbz as just another fashion accessory.
If that's all they are... by all means pay to conform to whatever the current ideal of beauty is.
If you love your own bewbz and their sensitivity, why risk it?
They're boobs, not a fashion accessory. Hell, I was planning this to happen after I quit camming - but I'm not having to quit in the foreseeable future anymore. As for why I'd change something I'd already love, see my first post.

Do you really want to risk that kind of surgery purely for something like tires you have to rotate every so often just for vanity?
I love a woman's breast because it is a sexual pleasure we both enjoy stimulating.
When or if a woman's breast loses that natural erotic feeling from sexual, sensual, erotic stimulation... then fashionable cleavage is all they're good for.
I know there are risks, but most all of the problems that are even slightly likely, are fixable. Sure, I could lose sensation - but it's not like I'm having them go in through the nipple or anything.

Do what you want to do Alex. I think you would look marvelous after a good boob job. Just don't get something like ee boobs on your small frame.
Nah, I won't go too big.

Neglecting the whole issue of my preferences (and I think you and the OP both look great now) - 'hard as rocks' - can be a result of capsular contraction.
Basically - you're putting something in the body that is not naturally there - and different peoples bodies react differently.
A 'capsule' forms around the wound - which has all sorts of poorly understood things going on in the capsule wall.
In some women, this capsule becomes hard and contracts, making the implant rigid - though it's not actually changed the implant - it's the tissue around it.
If I was considering getting implants (which at the moment seems vanishingly unlikely), I'd be waiting till there was good hard data on comparisons of post-surgery complications at least 3 years out.
(where complications include cosmetic ones, rather than just leakages and other implant failures)
Them going hard is one of those things that can easily be fixed. It's scar tissue, or like you said a capsule. Everyone will scar, just some scar worse than others. Either way, if it does happen, it can be corrected. Breast implants have come a long way already, and the 90's gave them a bad name. That's one of the reasons so many people are against it - because they think Shrek came out last year.

I'm very pro-choice like Fluf.. err.... KarmelKiss said.
But.
The grass is ALWAYS greener.
You (or anyone currently hoping to get boobs) are focusing on the excitement of having bigger assets and a new body. All I can think about when imagining getting a boob job, are the risks involved and the possible health issues afterward. Sure, with a good surgeon, they may turn out fantastic, but you never know how your body will react to having something foreign stuffed into it. I've heard so many horror stories about things popping, leaking, not dropping, never getting soft, ripping, bodies rejecting the implants, and having to either fix or remove the implants to rectify the problems. Multiple, painful, expensive surgeries to fix something that was not broken to begin with.
It's fucking scary.
I know how scary it can be, but I'm not really afraid. I'm not really focused on the results (other than making sure they're done well,) I'm focusing on the breast modification itself. It's hard to explain to someone who isn't pro-piercings/tattoos/scarification/all that stuff. Sure, I'll do this very carefully and won't rush it, and make sure I have a very good surgeon (not just one who's board certified, but one who's certified in breast augmentation.)

i used to be very anti plastic surgery from a "feminist" point of view... but feminism is about choice ive realized as ive gotten older and if your choice is to get fake boobies then im sure youll look hot. i feel like a lot of men say they dont like implants and ive discussed getting my breasts done with my lover and at first he was vehemently against it but when he got over the whole stigma of it he said that he does enjoy my breasts now but if i had bigger ones hed find it sexy too. ive thought alot about getting mine done. i carry alot of weight in my ass and thighs and almost none in my breasts or waist. i would simply like to be more proportionate and feel more confident. the sensitivity thing scares me and as i plan on being a mom someday the breastfeeding thing does too. but some women dont have very much sensitivity in their breasts to begin with so its not an issue for them. if breast play does not play a large role in your sexual enjoyment than it would seem an easier choice to make.
i personally think the stigma for fake breasts is unnecessary. its all about personal decision of cons vs pros. i think you may have a a few disappointed people but really, thats their problem not yours and youll probably have a lot of people who embrace it and find it dead sexy.
Hah, I wish more feminists were like you. The radical ones freak me out and make me kind of sexist >_>
I really do think you're right about it being a stigma. I'm sure that once any girl's breast implants drop and fluff, so long as they don't have major issues (fixable, again,) then no one would notice unless she went too big or went with saline. If they do notice, then they're a bit too picky and fixated with one part of my body. If that one detail of that one part pushes them away from me, then they're the ones who make breasts into an object to judge; not me.
As for how it'd affect my sex life, even if they lost some sensitivity, it wouldn't. My sex life is so awesome, it'd be awesome even without my ass or cunt, let alone my boobs.
Besides, I'm kind of a nudest and all pro-women-being-topless because honest, as awesome and sexy as any part of the body can be on anyone, I don't think breasts have any more to do with sex than shoulders.
I'm sure some people out there think that admiring science and body modification is the wrong reason to get implants, but the truth is; it's not wrong, they just don't get it.
