I agree. There is way too much handling of the breast tissue to make this a comfortable experience, unless the person helping has some personal knowledge (a pair of her own). It is not a quick physician exam and can take a great deal of maneuvering and time. It's been a challenge for women in the middle east to find

I also read a review copy of this book but took away different information. First, I learned that breasts have been getting bigger for the past 15 years (something I found when I wrote my own book on the subject). Second, it may be male breast cancer (clusters found near Superfund sites) that lead to the discovery of

If 85%-90% of women wear the wrong size bra, how could this possibly be accurate? Just another made up chart to make women feel as if breast size matters, when it doesn't at all. They are all fabulous and wonderful, and unique. It's like a chart comparing foot size or hand size. Who cares?

I didn't think Ashley Judd was insulting women at all. And I don't disagree that I'm influenced by the media. But there are biological differences between men and women; tons of science on how their brains differ. To sum it up in a very general way, women tend to see the particular, while men focus on the general. So

Is it biology or patriarchy? It may not be an abnormal obsession; but could be we've taken it to abnormal lengths.

It's The Beauty Myth vs. Survival of the Prettiest. We're either all sheep following patriarchal rule or wired to care about appearance. I've seen women tear each other apart for perceived body flaws that men don't notice.

I call bullshit on "internalizing patriarchy." There are hundreds of women's fashion magazines and websites catering to our obsession with our appearance. Who are we kidding that we don't feed that machine? Is it any wonder women judge each other on "looks?" On that note, I"m heading over to Pinterest to add a few

As pointed out above, breast are more like snowflakes so there must be far more than 5 different types of nipples. (Also since no two boobs are alike, even on the same woman.) And areolas come in all different shapes and colors. Some nipples are perfectly centered, and others are off to the side or point up or down.

Boobs are powerful: they have the ability to attract and distract, at the very same time. But I'm not sure this effect is only experienced by men.

Could this be a parody? I think most men are far more intelligent than the opinions represented in this piece. Everybody loves boobs (men, women, and even babies). Tell me something I don't know, please.

Smart woman, your mother. A good tailor can do anything!

The original article by Ardnt is quite thought provoking, and quotes Hugo Schwyzer on how he was once mesmerized by a woman's cleavage and suggested a "three second rule." Really? We use boobs and women's bodies to sell everything—in video games, magazines, and Super Bowl commercials. Advertisers train men to be

There are plenty of of stick-on products that work wonders ([www.thebreastlife.com]). Really depends on your bra size and where your breast flesh rests on your chest (either vertical or more horizontal). One wonders why the dressmaker didn't just build in a bra for Angie's dress. At least a black bra would have been
