    Default CNN - Breast Implant Story

    Thought y'all might find this interesting.

    "Breast implants linked to suicide, but not cancer
    NEW YORK (Reuters Health) -- A large Canadian study adds to evidence that women with breast implants do not face a higher risk of cancer or other major diseases, but they may have a higher-than-average rate of suicide."

    That's strange, because breast implants drastically increased my confidence. I wasn't ever truly unconfident of my body before, it was more that I was self-conscious of my tiny chest and nonexistent nipples. For example, when guys would turn me down, I would tell myself, "It's because I have no boobs." But then again, I tend to be an anomaly/statistical minority for a lot of studies/generalizations lol.

    suicide is a low risk occurrence. yeah someone who does something out of the ordinary probably slightly more predisposed to sucuide. What would happen if you compared suicide rates based on car model bought?

    it might also be not the breast implants causing women to commit suicide but the fact that more people who are depressed get implants because they are trying to make themselves happy from the outside.
