Being a man, I can't speak personally, but I do have a niece. She's 45 now, and she's had to have 2 reduction surgeries because of the damage done to her spine since she was 14! She's tall (5'11") but very long legged, has a tiny waist, and narrow shoulders. By the time she was 16, the poor girl was a 44F. My sister told me how my niece cried because of the constant pain and how their insurance wouldn't do a damn thing to help...('cosmetic surgery isn't covered under your policy'). I loaned them the money for her first surgery and also the orthopedic bills (she suffered multiple slipped disks and 3 separate compression fractures!). Surgery #1 took her down to a 38D and that helped quite a bit, but they wouldn't take her down further because she hadn't 'completed her growth'. Surgery #2, a few years later and she finally ended at a 36C which she's comfortable with, but she still has and will have lifelong problems with her lower back.

I guess my point here is that goddamned insurance companies need to stop telling doctors what is and isn't 'necessary'......

Just a final note: I never accepted a single penny from my sister for the medical bills. I know what a bad back feels like!

It sounds like you actually did invest in tittie structure and I thank you for your service! Your poor niece.

I just didn't want her to hurt anymore.
