I have had two college friends get reductions because they felt there boobs were to big and they were only known as the girls with big boobs. a year later they both made separate comments they missed them. Also one still had back pain because it turns out even flat chested girls get bad backs. It has been stated its her choice and that's true and I hope she finds the results she wanted from it.

The wife of a friend of mine - who is quite busty - has said on more than one occasion that busty women who complain about back pain need to adjust their posture, not deflate their breasts.  According to her, many busty women are self-conscious about their breasts, and so tend to slouch and roll their shoulders forward in an attempt to disguise how large their chests are.  This throws them off their center of gravity, placing strain on their back muscles, which in turns results in pain (the same reason your back starts to hurt if you spend too much time hunched over a keyboard or slouched on the sofa).  If they were to stand up straight, with their shoulders back, it would bring their spine back in line with their pelvis, allowing it to bear the weight instead of their back muscles, eliminating the discomfort.  

If her posture is bad, getting her breasts reduced isn't likely to alleviate her back pain.

I suffered with back pain for years sans big female breasts.  I read John Sarno, who contends the pain is real but the manifestation of stress.  Helped me tremendously. 

Our backs are evolutionarily adusted to walking upright, bending over, lifting, etc.... And they're perfectly able to carry around big boobs.

There are many personal reasons to get a reduction and that's fine.  But the bad back thing?  No.

Note: this has moved away from the specific to the general. General comments still relevant to the thread sub-topic but more so with the nature/condition of human society.

There are many personal reasons to get a reduction and that's fine.  But the bad back thing?  No.

And of those, most of the popular ones boil down to conformity. (including social pressures, rude people, etc)

Are there any other body parts people have surgically altered in order to better utilize standard sizes of manufactured products like clothing?

I never considered having my feet narrowed to fit standard shoes, my legs and torso shortened to better fit in a fair number of automobiles, my skull modified to wear standard baseball hats, and a few more things....

But I guess I just don't understand... I won't have my nose altered to try to make my face less ugly either

To each their own I but I think people aren't supposed to be like manufactured products.

Also, it is too bad the human animal creates a hassle free zone where people have to be... or else.

I noticed she has posted a few pics but they are all face shots, were before the majority of her pics were waist up. Still waiting for the confirmation pic but it seems she is purposely avoiding her body images for now

ive seen ONE pic below the neck lately. though at an odd angle, it was plain to see that she no longer has any figure to speak of whatsoever

This was posted today (so, presumably it is post-surgery). I **87** the non-Ashley parts. It's not terribly revealing but figured some of you would want to see it.

Is it just me or is it hard to tell? The cleavage line seems the same and the third pic has some curve to it for sure.

If it's a done deal, then I have to wonder how long it'll be (if it ever happens) before we see evidence of LDM-esque regret. *

cherri has cautioned me in the past regarding a few decisions I was facing with these wise words: "Be careful what you wish for. You might just get it."



* It may never come to pass. She could be one of the few who really do enjoy blending in with, disappearing among the hoi polloi, and becoming less unique. Best of luck to her, either way.

But that's the weird part. Ashley has long been a poster on many social sites, and remember she is/was a t-shirt model. Ashley has never had a problem with attention. Even a couple years ago she would post on wanting a reduction one week then talk about loving her curves the next. Her resent retreat seem to be after her new boyfriend entered her life. So if there is regrets for a yet unconfirmed reduction it will be because A. her modeling career will have changed because while she is still beautiful she will no longer be unique but just like every other slim model out there.B. her boyfriend was the catalysis  for the final change and they go there separate ways.

This is kinda my point.

To reference your points, a) happens, some women welcome the resulting invisibility, some women regret it. And to your b) LDM married someone who was rumored (I don't know if it was ever substantiated; others here will very likely know better) to be rather un-keen on her boobage, possibly being a major catalyst behind LDM getting her reduction. As for the regret factor, LDM subsequently got implants; draw your own conclusions.

Again, the history of one woman does not necessarily mean the future of another woman. It'll simply be somewhat interesting to find out whether AP becomes less interesting (for some definition of 'interesting') and ever verbalizes wanting to turn back the hands of time.

My blather here isn't really having any impact one way or the other, either.

Why would you pursue much less marry one of the bustiest women around?
