message: "There are too big differences between the opinion of cosmetic surgeons and the actual medical point of view"
I'm not even sure what the first part of this sentence is supposed to mean. Perhaps someone could clear it up? Stuart McN 12:19, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: "the view which plastic surgeons wants to tell us in TV and press, for getting more patients" - this is obvious POV and OR. And I always thought that plastic surgeons were more into augmentations rather than reductions. Netrat_msk (talk) 15:21, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: References

message: There is not enough information to support two articles on a very closely related subject, Gigantomastia and Virginal breast hypertrophy, which are about the same disorder at different periods in a female's life. I recommend merging the two here. -- btphelps (talk) (contribs)
I agree with Phelps. Gigantomastia and virginal breast hypertrophy are two faces of the same phenomenon: macromastia. When it occurs in adult, non-pregnant women, in the medical literature it is generally called macromastia. When it occurs, as it usually does, in pubertal or prepubertal girls, it is called virginal breast hypertrophy or simply virginal hypertrophy. When it occurs, as it also does but less often, in adult pregnant women, we call it gigantomastia. This is simply a conveniency, an agreement on classification. Macromastia, the oversized growth of breasts, also occurs in men, be it very rare. This phenomenon is called gynecomastia. Hansung02 (talk) 18:06, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

message: Why there is no mention of women that take advantage of their large breasts, like "adult" dancers, sex-industry professionals, that one that breaks watermelons with her breasts etc, and of course those with less extreme cases of the condition showing off their assets under regular social situations for their benefit (getting in front of the line, getting hired for non-sex related jobs, attracting welcome attention etc) ? --TiagoTiago (talk) 01:35, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This article isn't just about large breasts, it's about a specific condition. So if you could find information from a qualified and reputable source about a woman with this specific condition who uses her breasts in the manner you describe, then go ahead and add it. Otherwise, if you find qualified source information about a woman who takes advantage of her generous endowment, perhaps showing off her cleavage, amplified by an appropriate push up bra, you might find a satisfactory place to add it to the article about breasts or perhaps the history of brassieres. -- btphelps (talk) (contribs) 18:34, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

message: "The largest recorded weight was  per breast."
There are many internet sites copying/pasting this claim. I removed it, as I could not find any evidence in a reliable source. Please add a citation if there is one.  -- Rainbow5489208 (talk) 10:07, 2 August 2012 (UTC)
