The bigger the better
Excerpt from the book "The Big Book of Breasts". By Dian Hanson.

Silicone injection made its way to America in the 1950s and was the most common breast enhancement technique before Dow Chemical introduced the gel-filled implant in 1963. Even after the advent of implants many women opted for injections because they were cheaper and required no convalescence, though they carried the risk of infection and occasionally death. By 1970 direct injection of silicone was outlawed in all states but Nevada, where an additional 40,000 women risked their lives for bigger breasts before a federal ban in 1976. Breast magazines continued to prosper through the 1980s with surgical enhancement an ever-bigger issue. By the late '80s, when sex was becoming big business, breasts were viewed as an investment, a career accessory to increase one's value at the strip club. Some dancers "upsized" with new and bigger implants every year. Inevitably, the day came when breasts went from career accessory to career necessity.
Here you can cuddle up to some of the most celebrated natural breasts of the last 50 years
Around 1990 a Texas surgeon induced implant manufacturers to create custom silicone sacs of enormous size. Where before the largest implants contained 500ccs of liquid, roughly a pint, suddenly 1000cc, 2000cc, and even 3000cc enlargements were possible. And when 3000cc wasn't big enough, implants were "ganged," inserted two at a time in a single breast. The super-size fad coincided with the rise of "gentleman's clubs,"modern, upscale strip emporiums where a headline dancer could make three thousand dollars a week, or a dollar for every cc of saline or silicone in her monster implants. For several years new and more grotesquely augmented dancers appeared each month. Then the complications began to appear and in the late '90s the chemical companies pulled the big sacs off the market.
America hasn't entirely recovered from the surgical insanity of the '90s, but signs are encouraging. Of the 300,000+ breast augmentations performed in the US in 2004, most used implants of modest 300 to 400cc size. Many men's magazines are now refusing to use models with grossly enlarged breasts, and naturals are becoming a big draw at the dance clubs.We'll never return to a time when big breasts can be assumed to be real, though; not as long as American men love D-cups and there are plastic surgeons ready to help women even the playing field.
For that reason I dedicate this book to all who have looked upon a spectacular rack and wondered, "Are they, or aren't they?" Here you can cast your doubts aside and cuddle up to some of the most celebrated natural breasts of the last fifty years. I'm sure you'll find them eminently useful. And don't worry if you find yourself salivating: that's just your oral phase kicking in. If you still yearn for Roth's 155-pounder, just check out Annie Hawkins-Turner, aka Norma Stitz, on page 392. According to the Guinness Book of World Records her endowment comes pretty darn close.
