The discussion should definitely be allowed, and to my knowledge it is. The problem is it usually quickly devolves in politicization and outright name-calling. Once someone cries out SWJs, feminists etc. or personally attacks other forumers the chances on a reasonable discussion are pretty much dead. The other side of the argument will bring out crowbar and sledgehammer as well and it's going to get ugly soon.
That homophobic remark by the most recent discussion starter was the coffin nail for this discussion.
As somone who has family members working in a women's clinic I can reassure you that the vast majority of breast reductions happen because of serious health issues. Women suffer from severe back pain, due to the in some cases immense weight that they have to carry, or they partially lose or completely lose their breast tissue due to cancer.
Breast reductions due to Hollywood, if that is even a thing, are frankly a joke in comparison.
Oh yes, I know that people get them for medical reasons etc.
And most of them are due to medical reasons.
But they do happen in Hollywood, because once you're over a certain size you're basically regarded as being someone who '' can't be taken seriously '' ( and it's not even a very large size that we're talking about ).
Hollywood is like this with facial surgery and such too, but if you're well-endowed it's usually a complete death sentence for your acting career unless you don't want to only play '' big breasted bimbos '' for comedic effect.
Hence why I said that women are being dehumanized and demonized for how they were born.
People do judge you quite severely for being well-endowed in a VERY negative fashion, and a lot of the negative attitudes and dismissing of it on the internet is just another form of expression of that.
It's a quite common thing to hear amongst well-endowed women that they've had people suggest it in a not so very good way.
And I have personal friends who have experienced it and that I've talked to a lot about this and how it makes them feel to constantly read article after article and forum post after forum post about how '' horrible '' that the way that they were born apparently is and needs to be changed for them to be '' less ridicilous, more human, respectable, presentable etc etc ''. To the extent that they feel as if they're not even being regarded as people.
My friend literally had the doctor tell her that she should get one so that people would '' not think that she's a bimbo ''.
And the assumption that some people make that the sole reason why a well-endowed woman exists in a game for example is for sexual titilation is just yet another case of this. I am not saying that it isn't often the case that well-endowed women are used specifically for sex appeal, but I also think that people are very '' jumpy '' when it comes to it and make that assumption per default.
It's possible to even like a character such as Ivy or Rachel without it being a sexual thing, and it's possible to like a well-endowed female character for relatability or aesthetical reasons rather than sexual etc. But people jump to the assumption that it's purely for sexual reasons because it's both easier to dismiss people who like them as '' perverts '' and quite frankly because most of it I think is projection.
Because that's how they see it.
I just wish that people would perhaps stop and think about these things for a moment before being so dismissive and simplistic about it.
Because it does perpetuate a lot of shitty attitudes and hurtful notions.
I just wish that people overall were less shitty towards each other and more considerate of others.
Whether it be towards someone who is well-endowed, small-chested, large or skinny etc ( regardless of whether it's something that you're genetically born with or not ). Just be decent and respectful towards each other.
And so, perhaps people shouldn't insinuate that someone is a '' monster / monsterous '' for being well-endowed.
Long post, sorry xD. I feel strongly about this...
