Think about it logically. Here's a nsfw link to the clinic where my wife got her implants. Most of the post-op breasts (and the whole page is called "breast lifting without scars") look like they have at least some silicone.

That link is a handy demonstration that breasts of any size large enough to count as breasts will be prone to the appearance of sagging. It goes with the territory of growing fat tissue with little more than dermal tension for structure, and after the fat has finished rapidly developing at puberty to a bigger or smaller degree the skin gradually catches up to accommodate it.

All else being equal I personally prefer natural/saggy breasts over pert breasts with surgically circumscribed nipples.

the whole page is called "breast lifting without scars"

If that's without I'd hate to see the page with.

Young breasts have a slightly different tissue composition (which is firmer) which changes with age resulting in an increase sag as you get older (beyond the size factor).

Should you have cause to feel a large number of breasts it is pretty noticeable lol.

What is this place?

This website is a place for people who want to move past shady thinking and test their ideas in a court of people who don't all share the same biases. Our goal is to optimize for light, not heat; this is a group effort, and all commentators are asked to do their part.

The weekly Culture War threads host the most controversial topics and are the most visible aspect of The Motte. However, many other topics are appropriate here. We encourage people to post anything related to science, politics, or philosophy; if in doubt, post!

Check out The Vault for an archive of old quality posts. You are encouraged to crosspost these elsewhere.


Why are you called The Motte?

A motte is a stone keep on a raised earthwork common in early medieval fortifications. More pertinently, it's an element in a rhetorical move called a "Motte-and-Bailey", originally identified by philosopher Nicholas Shackel. It describes the tendency in discourse for people to move from a controversial but high value claim to a defensible but less exciting one upon any resistance to the former. He likens this to the medieval fortification, where a desirable land (the bailey) is abandoned when in danger for the more easily defended motte. In Shackel's words, "The Motte represents the defensible but undesired propositions to which one retreats when hard pressed."

On The Motte, always attempt to remain inside your defensible territory, even if you are not being pressed.


New post guidelines

If you're posting something that isn't related to the culture war, we encourage you to post a thread for it. A submission statement is highly appreciated, but isn't necessary for text posts or links to largely-text posts such as blogs or news articles; if we're unsure of the value of your post, we might remove it until you add a submission statement. A submission statement is required for non-text sources (videos, podcasts, images).

Culture war posts go in the culture war thread; all links must either include a submission statement or significant commentary. Bare links without those will be removed.

If in doubt, please post it!
