Alongside news that the demanded sizes for silicone breast implants are increasing, we have a marvellous little piece of research suggesting that breast enlargement can help women's self-esteem:
Improvements in the women’s self-esteem and sexual satisfaction were directly correlated with having undergone breast augmentation. Figueroa-Haas used two widely accepted scientific scales to measure self-esteem and sexuality, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and the Female Sexual Function Index, which assesses domains of sexual function, such as sexual arousal, satisfaction, experience and attitudes.
Yep, let's not talk about whether it's reasonable for a woman's self-esteem to be based on the size of her breasts. And let's not talk about how the media affects how women feel about their bodies:
The rail-thin blonde bombshell on the cover of a magazine makes all women feel badly about their own bodies despite the size, shape, height or age of the viewers. A new University of Missouri-Columbia study found that all women were equally and negatively affected after viewing pictures of models in magazine ads for just three minutes.
Grrr . . . .
