    Default Grooby,Bob's Tgirls,Evil Angel etc must educate on silicone!

    Following the news of the death of yet another girl- Kelly Tavares- from injected industrial silicone, I feel something needs to be done.

    According to my friend praetor (in another thread), the Brazilian Government has tried to raise awareness and even imposed punishments for the "bombadeiras" (those who inject silicone in the girls' bodies), but with no success.

    I think now it is up to those who deal directly with these girls to take action and launch a major campaign to raise awareness. I am talking about the photographers, the other models, the people who run the websites and produced the DVDs- everyone involved in the porn and escorting industry. If the people who have made money by photographing these girls or putting them online can do this, they can give something substantial back to the TS community, especially in Brazil, where this problem is common and deaths occur frequently.

    What do you think? I'd especially like to hear the views of Seanchai and others involved in the industry.

    I'm surprised that those who voted so far seem to think that the porn providers shouldn't take any action. Considering that these girls are pumping so that they look better and that they want to look better not just because it might make them feel better but because they feel that they will be more in demand for porn and escorting, I think the two are VERY related.

    Girls like Kelly Tavares die because they want to become more beautiful so that more of us will want to see them or will desire them. I feel the issue involves all of us, including every single one of us in front of a PC or TV screen jacking off to TS porn.

    And it wouldn't take much effort for a photographer to take the girls aside and have a short chat with them or hand them some info. If that can prevent the death of a girl like Kelly Tavares, I'm all for it and I'd be willing to pay $5 extra if/when I buy my next TS DVD to ensure it.

    Yeah, they should.
    I mean, they don't listen to governments, doctors, the deaths of their friends and the really hideous results, so they're bound to listen to those pillars of the establishment, pornographers.

    Know where you're coming from, but...

    The only way you'll stop it is to hand out free tits...And then they'll pump for a matching arse to go with them.

    Good point. My answer: Because there's a difference between someone telling you that you mustn't do something and someone who pays your wages telling you that it would be stupid to do so.

    Because these girls want to be beautiful and they want to be accepted. The acceptance and validation doesn't come from their doctor, it comes from the people who give them work because of their beauty.

    An analogy: If you were a teenager and really, really wanted to date a girl who like tattooed guys (or bikers or whatever) would you still not think of getting one even if your folks told you it was dangerous? But if the girl you liked thought it was nasty, then you would never think of getting one.

    And to flabbybody, I totally agree. As for Jericho...dude, you make me laugh sometimes...But I'm glad you get my point.

    Truthfully they really know the risks, problems that silica causes to human body, but anyway, they take the risk and get injected the silica, to change to be a woman quickly.
    Here in Brazil, the "bombadeiras" commit two kinds of crime, 'body injury' and 'illegal medicine practice', but they continues injecting silica in tgirls body, despite some have been arrested and convict.
    We have campaings to advice, to alert to the risks, but they bet, they rely to luck.

    i voted no

    its not the providers place to educate

    girls are getting pumped bc of the horrible things guys on THIS site say.... i get called all kinds of bs... even tho my TRUE measurements are 36 30 42 ... bc guys feel that from head on my hips arent as protruding from my waist line and therefore i have "mans body, boys body, a brick, linebacker" etc etc etc
    its bs like that cause other girls to do whatever it takes, regardless of the risks, so that THEY dont get called names and feel bad about themselves the way i have been

    stupid is as stupid does and with all cosmetic work comes great risk.... some more than others
    its important to educate YOURSELF and be ok w/ the risks

    it is not up to the ppl that profit off these girls bodies to tell them "hey guys buy our product bc you look like a female but you cant enhance your look to actually look female"

    its not gonna happen... esp as long as guys continue to insult girls w/o fake curves and fall all over the ones that have them





    i have natural curves and im working out and they are getting more and more pronounced as my waist gets smaller

    Do you really think pornographers in poverty stricken countries are really concerned about these girls in anyway other than how it affects their profit margin?

    They are paying them practically nothing, so keeping them as uneducated as possible is what gives them the upper hand. It is a perfect example of how to move forward by holding someone else back.

    Most of all the girls I know, know the risk and continue to get pumped with silicone. I feel that the reason for this is because there is no alternative that is affordable.

    I also think that alot of the girls that are considering getting pumped with silicone see all these beautiful retouched pictures of these girls with curvy bodies and think I want that and can have that! What the girls dont see is the negative affect of silicon or the un retouched version of the pics. Where you can see the discoloration, dark stains, lumps, bumps, dents, drastic migration where the silicone has moved to other parts of the body or fallen down from there hips to there legs and ankles.

    The think that the girls with silicone and have issues with it dont talk about it! They dont want anyone to know! Its a very hush hush issue.

    I know of other girls that have died or had serious heath issues from silicone its quite sad.
