Mounds

I think Kate said it best on her Day 0 diary entry of her breast augmentation:
Dr. Geldner was quite surprised by my incessant concern about not going too big. He had worked with transsexual patients before and, in his experience, most strived for the ultra-feminine and specifically, in the case of breast augmentation, huge boobs. In contrast, I wanted an extremely natural outcome.On my frame I'd actually be happy with somewhere between an A and a B. I remember that way back in the olden days when I was just starting out with my questionning (circa 1998) I was somewhat taken aback by all the hullaballoo over breasts. Not that I wouldn't mind them but that they seemed to be getting way too much attention. Getting a bra was a big thing, breasts were a measure of your HRT progress, and I remembered seeing way too many photos which emphasized the chest region. sigh I guess I've never really felt that much of an attachment to them. I just want something so that clothes hang nicely but not large enough to attract a lot of unwanted attention. Plus I've resigned myself to the fact that I've got Asian ancestry---fat chance I'll get anything larger than a B.
I did not wish to become a physical caricature of femininity.
Breast implants? Not even on the radar. My personal deal is that I'd like to avoid going into any more debt than I am already. That means putting all the money towards FFS (I'm still debating) and SRS.
I'd be lying to you if I told you I didn't want a nice set of chest melons. I do. It's just that I also want a decent waist-to-hip ratio and to be in better health overall. That takes priority over breasts. Besides, isn't that what WonderBras TM are for?
