I read a article about an interview with Keira Knightley in which she informs the reader that U.S. magazines do not accept women/celebrities with anything smaller than a C cup on their magazines because they turn the rest of us (the public) off. Instead, they will use computer graphics to make said celebrity "fuller".
I was very surprised by such a statement! Is this true? Any opinions on this?

It's not surprising and I don't doubt it. Most US magazines work on the "sex sells" principle. If you notice in the article the retouched photo didn't just alter her chest, but her face as well (it's more sultery in the retouched version) and her skin tones to be more tanned. All this conforms to the image most US magazines try to sell. It's a rather narrow vision, but apparently it works for them.
As far as opinions, I just find it sad, she's a talented actress and was wonderful in the movie why should anyone care about something so superficial.

I believe the breasts is looks. To me as long as the women are happy with THEIR OWN BODY, they souldn't worry what other people think. To me that's the perfect woman no matter what.

No, since I'm not a girl I don't look at girls. But I do think the big boob thing is ridiculous. They expect us weigh 100 lbs and have size double E cups. What sense does that make. I am a size B and people tell me I am beautiful for beauty really comes from within. Besides your soul mate will not care what size cup you have and that is who you want to attract anyway right?

Is a woman with less than a C cup a turn off to you?
No
Computer enhanced breasts?
Give me a break!!! That's ridiculous.
Just imagine though they pay someone (probably good money) to stare out girls breasts all day and try and make them look "fuller"... That's funny!!!

Keira may have been referring to magazines marketed to complete idiots, who believe that looks determine a person's worth and who pay to hear "experts" tell them what their opinions should be. To them, it's probably a turn off. To those of us with more than 2 living brain cells, it's a simple physical attribute, nothing more.

honestly...here it is. some men are big breasts guys. some are small breasts guys... some just don't care.
My opinion... any guy that only likes you cause you have Double D's! you don't want him anyway cause he is shallow!
Thanks!

personally, yes and no. anything less than a small b cup isnt necassarily a "turn off" but it still lacks what the c's and d's have. c cup's and up are definetley nice, but anything over a large d is actually too big. my fiance is a 34-D, and that's perfect for me. when we first started dating she was a 34-C, which was really nice, but an extra cup didnt hurt anything. but no, its not a "turn off", but its nice to have something bigger.

It sounds like nonsense to me. Most of the models are stick-skinny and seem to have no breasts at all. That might be true of Playboy, but not of U.S. magazines in general.

It may be true for some magazines that cater to a certain type of clientele. It's a sad reality of how our society views women.
