Boobs in space

| | comments (1)

Sky has the newsflash!

Women with boob jobs may be banned from Virgin's space flights. Bosses fear the implants may expand and burst due to cabin pressure, according to The Sun...

Heh. Leaving plenty of seats on the moon shuttle for us girl geeks, cuz, as Lisa Michaud points out in the “Guy’s Guide to Geek Girls”, girl geeks

don't dress for success. They dress for comfort, for long hours in the lab, for convenience. This is not to say that geek girls aren't capable of looking nice; they can be quite striking when the mood suits them. Most of the time, however, they are under fluorescent lighting and bent over the monitor, so makeup, suits, and high heels are utterly pointless. Not that they aren't anyway, of course

And so some visions of the future pass into the realms of fantasy:

Except, of course, there is actually no risk of implants rupturing due to pressure differentials ... and the whole point of a pressurized cabin is that the air pressure inside stays same as it was on takeoff. Of course, if ignorance of basic science keeps implantees off of the space-plane, that's just fine with me.
