Latest Issue of Triathlete Mag. (Page 3)

Fit's in the house!

How are your floaties these days?  I mean...err...  How are you doing new mommy?

Since this thread turned to boobs Ill give my vote for "its your body do what you want"

My last long term GF had implants and would get offended if I said "boob job". She prefered enhancements as they enhanced her. Her doctor deserved a medal because they were very good and unless you saw her topless you wouldnt have a clue and even then it would require closer examination

We talked about the "why" of having it done ( it was her second set because the warranty had passed on the old ones if I recall) She said she did it for her and I think thats the best reason. If it helps your self image and isnt used as a crutch to get around real issues then more power to you.

One of the woman at work was discussing wanting them and she asked me some questions since she knew about my ex. I told her my feelings as I mentioned above and told her to talk to as many people as possible about the downside. Once again though in the end its up to the individual.

I figure as long as it doesnt become obsessive or dangerous then its no different than someone doing something else to improve their self image or "look". ( putting the fact that its surgery aside of course)


Theres a pretty strong AG triathlete in my general area who I would swear has implants. Given her body fat % and frame its almost guarnateed. They are reasonable and  enhance her natural beauty because they "fit". They seem to have zero affect on her performance but maybe they are the aero version made by Profile Design

However to me she would be no less attractive without them. Im a legs/butt man

As far as the magazine I am sure they could have picked up some beautiful unknowns at big events who would have looked just as beautiful but then you take the chance that they would not do well in front of the camera.

I'm still laughing at the "divide by boobies" part. 

back to the original question I think we(triathletes) should show off our bodies to a certain degree at least. I'm not talking about girls doing full races in string bikinis or guys running races in a speedos, but some mid drift or short shorts is pretty sexy. After all the time I spend R,B and S I want to be noticed.

I am definitely on Team PFD's, in the natural category. Get get mine aero at all. Embrace the top-heavy!

  All of my friends have PFD's. No fair.

Dear Santa,

Please bring me boobs so I can play with my friends.

Thank you,

Maybe you have the inflatable kind and just need to find someone to blow them up for you.  I'm sure you could find someone to volunteer for the task.

Wow, that certainly tops wurkit_gurl's body marking idea!

I was just wondering what those who opposed boob enhancement thought about people getting reductions?

I hate my PFD's.  After I lose some weight to shrink them I am seriously going to look into a reduction because the dang things just get in the way.

Perhaps it is just something I am self-conscious about.  Perhaps it's just that my boobs don't fit my lifestyle.  Am I going to be judged for it?  I guess in the end I don't care.  I want smaller boobs and so I'm gonna do it.

For the record, I personally cannot understand why ANYONE would get implants...who the heck WANTS large boobs???

My old drinking buds and I had an "enhancement" drinking game..

not that we were betting on if they were real or not, but once a women got them.   How long did she still stay married or date the man she was dating when she got them.  The usual over/under was  9 months.   I"m trying to remember if we met anyone that was still with the same guy, but I don't think so.

maybe I'll turn that into a poll

This explains a lot.

>90% of the male population?

They would quickly change their minds if they had to run with them attached to their chest....

I'll trade you some C cups for your abs!
