Women who get breast implants 3 times more likely to commit suicide

Women who get breast implants 3 times more likely to commit suicide.... Makes sense to me. Some girls are just never satisfied with themselves that it truly drives them crazy.



Report links breast implants to higher suicide rate

A report based on "3,527 Swedish women who got implants between 1965 and 1993." may not be that meaningful in 2007 as indicated by the last paragraph of the article:

Researchers said the results might have limited applicability to women today because breast augmentation is more socially acceptable than it was 40 years ago.

Underlying esteem issues?

Possible unreal expectations presented in ads, in television shows, in movies, in porn (video, print AND internet)?

Won't be long before a moral crusader* gets a hold of this story and uses it as "proof" that implants kill women and starts pushing for them to be banned outright.


* By "moral crusader" I of course mean "busy body woman with nothing better to do". :)

Just wait for the MSDS on implants: "May cause distraction among men" . . .
