I mean, when women have small breasts they usually just buy larger breasts, it's a lot easier for them to change that aspect than men.
How do they compensate if they can't afford it themselves and really want it done? They usually get a man to pay for it.
If you think most breast enhancement surgeries are paid for by the women, you are not living in reality.
If you think they aren't common, how do you explain the 300,000 that occur each year in the US? It's the single most common plastic surgery performed in north America, and 1-2% of the female adult population has had it done and that percentage is going up over time.

This isn't incel anything, it's just facts.
Breast reduction is more common than enlargement as far as surgery goes.
No it isn't. Breast enhancement is the single most common cosmetic surgery performed in the US.
Where the fuck did you get 197 million?
There aren't even that many women in the US, let alone those of the right age groups.
Its still a fraction of a percentage, but thats only in a single year of surgeries, and your 2024 number is lower than the number per year I linked in the study.
The total percentage of adult women who've had breast enhancement is more than 2% and rising.
