The challenge is that these sites mainly cater to women interested in going from a smallish size (eg, A-cup) to "a full C-cup", the seemingly most popular request made of plastic surgeons, if popular plastic surgery TV shows are any indication. The next most popular sizes are a D-cup and "a full D".

That's where the media and the general public (and bra manufacturers it seems) would have you believe that the world of breasts as we know it ends. Like a ship sailing off the edge of flat Earth (no pun intended). Reports of anything larger seems to be as common as UFO sightings. And treated with about as much respect.

If you have been to any of these other sites and have asked questions or otherwise indicated an interest in getting larger than typical breast implants, you may have had the unfortunate experience of not taken seriously at the very least, or openly criticized or ridiculed.

By the same token, if you are just starting your quest and have already had a consult with a plastic surgeon, he may have tried to discourage you from seeking something so unusual, he may have openly expressed surprise or disgust for what you seek, or he may even have lost sight of proper decorum.

We understand those challenges here.  You're in good company.

Our goals include:

• fostering a positive, supporting attitude regarding larger breast augmentations
• nurturing a culture of information-sharing to this end
• creating a community of like-minded folks
• include the medical community and engage their interest

Getting the medical community involved (specifically plastic surgeons and their employees) will be an interesting one.  From one perspective, it will be helpful to have them comment on discussions in the form of helpful guidance, general information and constructive criticism.  From another perspective, it is hoped that the popularity of this site will create a groundswell which will help plastic surgeons realize that maybe this is more than just a passing fad, that maybe it would be worthwhile to engage and develop, rather than discourage and sweep under the carpet.  In other words, rather than having a rigid perspective of what constitutes "aesthetically pleasing" to instead realize that, at least for a small segment of the population, cup sizes venturing into E, F, G and beyond are aesthetically pleasing as well.
