If for a younger look to meet pressured demands considered risks at hand for a novel nook The spirit of youth gives way sagged twined glands do sway then there are the thin with minute breasts who look for an advantage from all the rest. An implant for a brighter self esteem for a profile of mammalian abundance expressed relevance not redundance and identified with the female team.... To be more voluptuous and desired well cleavaged and admired for the stress is on the look breast postings have women hooked. My discourse leaves me to stem the banal in respect of those who'd prefer the natural media attention could bave been fixed on the elbow not the breast but how so, for a part of the body that nutures all the rest. My discourse leaves me to respect a woman's decision to take on new postures and gain recognition but how much of what's decided is really up to her when glossies portray starlets with breasts to stir...

how sad... natural is always best, but then there are those of us, who could use reducing, what nature gave, it just depends, and should be entirely up to the woman..... |

It's sad when the images provided by the media outweigh all other considerations,for instance the media never discusses the inherent problems of too large breasts causing back pain or re-aligning the sense of balance. Give me natural anyday. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

this is a very personal thing to a woman, especailly when they start to droop and fall off the page, so to speak, if she wants to fix it up a bit, thats her business, so as a man, tho you are speaking from your own opinion, here is why some of us do what we do to fix it up a bit...... and to quote from my friend john once again ******* "Woman is the nigger of the world...yes she is If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with Woman is the slave of the slaves Ah, yeah...better scream about it We make her bear and raise our children And then we leave her flat for being a fat old mother hen We tell her home is the only place she should be Then we complain that she's too unworldly to be our friend " its how women start to get effaced and erased as they age and loose it a bit..... good poem tho...made me think [This message has been edited by inkedgoddess (08-31-2003 05:52 PM).] |

It is sad how a woman's opinion of herself can be so affected by what the media portrays...Is the love a fine woman based on such a physical thing or would a man love to be honestly loved by a person who may or may not be what the world says is present day beauty?.....As I age, physical appearance means less and less to me and I find myself more draw to real people who have a love of life....Well written poem about a tender subject. |

what struck me on a special about women's breasts is the effect by the media and the consequent upsurge in breast transplants over the past few decades. It's always up to women to decide naturally, but I wonder how much of that decision is really her own in the end...how much is sheer influence.Thanks all for sharing. |

You've got to read this for what it says for art's sake, or to communicate ideas. The anquish one feels comes from ones own personal experiences which are not always pretty. That's why I write poetry; it doesn't always make people feel good, it's written for people to think though.As far as topics go I will write something concerning male issues too, you can be sure.

It's a shame that many women feel pressured to live up to the standard's of society.I am who God intended me to be and am happy with what I see.I'm not the image of the media, but the image of myself that shows in my heart and not in my body.I wish more women could see their true beauty lies within the heart and soul.Well penned here.

Well said Crystal, too many people look at the outer trappings without seeing what's on the inside. |
