“FDA Report is a Bust” or "Silly Cones"


The FDA released a report Wednesday saying that silicone breast implants are relatively safe, despite complications in 1 out of 5 patients.  Clearly, the issue is still a little lopsided.

Thought the implants give women larger breasts, it is usually the men around them that act like bigger boobs than before.

The FDA concluded that women have the opportunity to ask questions in order to be aware of the risks.  Men only ask “Are those real?”

Federal officials say that implants filled with silicone are more likely to leak than those filled with saline.  But they still consider them safe because they are less likely to leak than implants filled with pushpins or broken glass.

Some are suspicious of the findings, considering the risks.  This may be a case of tit for tat.
