First reaction: [redacted]
Second reaction: this reminded me of an essay written by a Finn which I read recently, where they quoted a friend as saying "The problem with Americans is that they haven't seen their grandmothers' tits". By which they and the friend meant, because Finns go to the saunas and so on with family members, they see how normal human bodies age and sag. Without that experience, many people (including men involved with women) compare their partners' bodies to the only other people they've seen naked, porn and other actors, who are not average people. So they become disappointed when ordinary people (including women involved with men) don't look or stay looking like those very particular examples.

Food for thought.

Also, [more redaction].
