1. Why do I get a funny feeling about this?
It's almost like, well, it is 'only' a female, so what if they aren't safe, totally, as long as they look and feel good.

I understand the need for women with cancer who need reconstruction and so on, but you know the bulk of the customers won't be those poor women. It will be women who for reasons of vanity want them, and will believe that they 'must' be safe, else they would not be approved.

Why can't they come up with something better to help the women with cancer? If they took the money they spent on lawyers to ram this through and applied it to research, maybe they could develop a safer alternative.

How many women here are interested in getting cut open every ten years to replace their chests, since the things fail about every ten years?

The whole business seems fishy to me. Someone has to be on the take in a big way...
