I Macromastia Gigantomastia

I see that Similar Worlds has NOT improved upon Experience Project's syntax. Macro woman traveling in the American West with a wagon train of white settlers, comes up to Native American and says, "I Macromastia Gigantomastia." Jeez . . . .

"Macro woman traveling in the American West" - This makes me wonder, where are macro women in history? Do you know much about the recorded history of the ailment?

They were probably either given an honored place in royal concubines or drowned as witches or sorcerers. They would have made great "wet nurses" though.

I had read records of accusations of witchcraft related to breast size.. Makes you laugh really - mainly because I'm sure you get similar accusations today! Only the term "witchcraft" is replaced with "photoshop" :D

Well, they ARE "magic boobies!"

They are? Three wishes to anyone who rubs them??.. Wait.. Does that make you a genie?

They're not like a magic lamp and anyone who tries to rub my breasts will wish he'd never been born.

No, of course! It wasn't a serious suggestion I assure you.

The book [i]Water for Elephants[/i] has a minor character who has to have this. It's set in a traveling circus in the depression and the author, Sara Gruen, did a lot of research on them from the time period. So I guess she's supposed to be representative of a real thing some circuses had then.
I wanted to throw the book across the room at first because she's a sideshow performer who does some prostitution on the side and the first time she appears is totally sexualized during one of her shows. You eventually find out she's one of the good characters in the cast, and it got me thinking about what anyone had to do back then to get by and what kind of compromises she would have to make, especially if she tried to be independent back then as a woman with this.

I'm sure it wouldn't have been easy. I bet they would have tried to bind themselves to seem smaller.

@doodlebug2013: Seems like an uphill battle. I've fought some of those myself. Very draining. (sighs)
