A friend has pointed out to me that this'news story' on the BBC website appears to be a straightforward advertisement for a breast enhancement website:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/6751443.stm

Whereas this (older) story is, err, a condemnation of a (different kind of) breast enhancement website:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/6756313.stm

What's going on, BBC?

the reason for condemning that second site see fair enough however

The implants are paid for by male "benefactors" who, for a fee, can access the women's personal profiles, pictures and contact details.
Once women have uploaded their personal details, which should include a list of their physical attributes, such as hair and eye colour, the website says women can have a one-on-one chat online with benefactors and sell them "personal items or gifts and more..."

One British woman listed on the website who calls herself Morgan claims to have raised £3,700 from benefactors for her E-cup surgery.


:D

I quite agree that the second site should be condemned, but where was their critical view when considering the first?

It might help if we knew what your problem is with the first?

I don't see the problem with the second site. A meeting ground for idiots of both sexes?
