Fantasy flesh or real women

[Guest]

Just a casual inquiry as to how the members of Lit prefer their objects of desire, either surgically altered cyber-fantasies given flesh or one hundred percent natural homegrown beauties with no additives or preservatives. With the abundance and popularity of "gentlemen's clubs" and the multitude of super-vixens in adult films and on the internet, I start to wonder if that answer has not already been given.....

Breasts are breasts, I'm a bit more interested in the person attached to them.

Real boobies all the way. Fake ones feel icky, and usually look icky too.

Oh, and Never, when you actually log in to Lit, you'll find that you have a PM from me.

Beyond boobs

I was actualy meaning alteration beyond just boobs, as there are actually cases of women having ribs removed to achieve a more shapely figure. One extreme example has been a woman having her body rescuplted to be a dead-on copy of a life-sized Barbie doll, needless to say Mattel was not terribly flattered......

 

[lilminx]

That's a tough call. I think that extremes like having ribs removed are crazy, but surgery that doesn't look absolutely ridicluous is ok to me. It all really depends on how it looks on the individual.

I wish that, at the said of, say, twenty-five, a person could craft their body into whatever they desired: height, age, gender, race, shape, size, hair, eyes and everything.

A person's body is an intimate part of who they are, (my philosophy teacher's opinion to the contrary or not) so a desire to remake their body must, in part, be considered a desire to remake themselves. If a person succeeds or not in doing so is completely unknown to me.

as long as they are the same person inside both before and after their changes outside, i really don't have a problem with it. that's if i liked the peoples' insides before the surgury/surguries.

Phoney boobs are like cheap toupees.

You can spot 'em a mile away.

I haven't had the pleasure to touch either one...

Appearance is Everything

My opinion is that we buy way too much into the adage Appearance is Everything, sadly it seems all to terribly true, at least in America. Plastic surgury and cosmetic dentistry thrives on the public's assumption that the outside reflects the inside so if you are not GQ or Vogue cover material you better get an appointment made to correct your 'obvious' flaws if you want to be successfull. I wonder what's next, 'designer' genes for more attractive babies, could one sue a spouse for divorce because they fell below accepted standards of beauty or just simply Pretty People up front, the rest ride in the back......

To me it depends on how far a person goes with cosmetic surgery. A little bit here and there- ok, but like Michael Jackson cosmetic surgery is crazy.

It's just labeled differently.

Everyone needs some fantasy once in a while. It's waht keeps us from going insane.

Personally, I prefer the all-natural variety. Take two identical women. Both are somewehre between 40 and 50. One gets a facelift on order to look younger. She may be prettier, but the other is more beautiful, because you can see the history of her life on her face. Every wrinkle, crease, line, and imperfection records a part of her life.

I'll take natural beauty over artificial prettiness any day.

I'd be more apt to go after the girl next door look than something what Hollywood calls attractive.

Also I'm tired of looking at those pale, skinny, sickly looking models. I prefer to look at women with some curves than staring at some anorexic shell of a woman.

Some people will never be satisfied with their bodies, and that's truly a shame.

I, too, look at the person, not the boobs. If a woman wants to have a boob job, for what ever reason, that is her prerogative. Accept that decision and enjoy.

 

[Bluesboy2]

I have issues with cosmetic surgery.

Its a needless risk. Beauty fades, period. It whats inside that really matters. Thats where I look for beauty. Between the ears.

Correction, fake boobs and fake hair are easy to spot, no matter how much they cost.

well generally I think people should be more or less happy with what they have - if you feel you need to change your body radically, I would question your level of happiness with yourself as a person overall. However, I don't think there's anything wrong with a little nip and tuck here and there.

My aunt had a face lift a few years ago and she looks fab, has gone into acting and modeling in her 50's and is about the smartest most well rounded person I know. For me, I know that after I have a kid and am done breastfeeding that I will have a reduction, not only for the look (although it sure will be nice to have little perky ones) but because I cannot spend the rest of my life with my back and neck feeling the way they do day after day.

If there's just 1 or 2 things about your body that have been bugging you, then I say go for it. But if you just feel your whole self is not good, well, I think you have bigger issues.

Personally I know my husband prefers a real woman over a fantasy vixen; although the latter may be nice to look at once in a while, a regular chick just going about her daily business not neccessarily aware of how hot she looks as she grocery shops, goes to the office, does the laundry etc etc is much more exciting.

Yes, it seems it has, and I don't get it at all. Those girls look like caricatures to me. Pam Anderson is a perfect example. Fake tits, fake lips, hair bleached to the consistency of straw. Have you seen her without makeup? She has very little real beauty.

I like strip clubs, but not "gentlemen's clubs." At real strip clubs, the girls are real and know how to get down and dirty.

To look at they are fine, but I dont think I would ever date a person that felt the need for breast implants. Just not the right kind of person for me. I like people to be real, I dont like them to lie to their bodies or themselves. I've seen greatly attractive women, get cheap boob jobs, and they look much worse after the fact.

Suffice to say, I must say natural all the way.
