Guest blogger has a "good question" that's too hot for WCCO
by Ed Kohler
I submitted a "Good Question" to the folks over at WCCO that is, apparently, too hot for their audience. Luckily, there are other outlets in this town people can turn to when they need questions answered.
For that, I've chosen you, dear Afterglide readers.
Let the debate begin.

Dear WCCO Good Question,
A colleague of mine and I were discussing boob job etiquette earlier tonight and thought we'd throw the unresolved subject your way for further investigation.
If someone gets a boob job, are they obligated to show off their enhancements? For example, can one go through with the procedure, only to take on a wardrobe reminiscent of late 80's Benetton rugby shirts and oversized sweaters?
What is considered proper etiquette for copping a feel? Is it inappropriate to ask? Under what circumstances is it considered appropriate to accept an invitation?
We're just trying to understand what role we - as boob job observers - are obligated to take in today's society.

The enhancements, like the clothing to be worn afterwards, should be tasteful but sexy.
It should always be okay to ask for a feel, and it's totally rude of the boob owner not to offer. Just rude.
Also, is it ok to ask if you can smack the boobs around a little? It's one thing to cup or honk them, but short of a cock meat sandwich, giving them a few good smacks to monitor the jiggle can be a good method of measuring the quality of work.
I just don't understand the point of getting work done then not showing it off. If I had an ass implant (not that I need one), I'd be sure to show that off.
What if one of you got a penis implant? Would you show that off? I'm thinking...yes...
I guess it would depend why you're asking to see it . . .
If Ed were being totally honest here, he'd admit that the Good Question team sent a rather complete answer to his question.
And I encourage everyone to send their boob-related questions in. I just read Ed's guide to getting linked on MNSpeak, replaced MNSpeak with The Deets and managed to get two blog posts about me and Good Question on two websites.
I'm an evil genius!
Ed, I'm totally with you. Don't hide your light under a bush. Let it shine!
Alie, if I got a penis implant, I'd fly an American flag on it and unfurl my enhanced rod over the rotunda railing at the Mall of America.
Jason and Ed, I want to know what the response was! "Dear Ed, don't be a boob. Love, Jason."
Frankly, if a woman is getting a boob job, I think she owes society a look at her boobs BEFORE the enhancement. Otherwise, what would we compare her new boobs to?
Kevin, that may be the most sensible thing I've ever heard. EVER!
Here's our response:
Joe Berglove, Good Question photographer, tells me that boob job etiquette depends entirely on the person who's received the boob job.
It's her call.
Looking is completely fine.
Copping a feel should only be done after an invitation.
At that point, we suggest the "cup" technique. Cup softly beneath the implant, and then caress.
Happy Hunting!
The Good Question Team
The 'CCO Team's private response was surprisingly professional considering that it was private.
If I had to summarize the response in one sentence, I'd say it was, "Simple, but a little bit slutty."
Ed, that was the best use of the best quote.
I will never live that quote down.
What's the proper etiquette when it's a family member who gets the enhancement up top? Is it OK to completely ignore their obviously new overflowing cleavage? Should one say something? That seems really creepy to me. And is it right for them to suddenly unleash it upon us at the FAMILY Christmas party? Warn a guy before you do that Aunt Delores! This isn't a club, its Grandma's house! Put your old sweat suit back on...you know, the one with the dogs in Santa hats. We miss the old sweat suit, we really do.
I think some oogling and perhaps fondling is to be accepted at first....the real question is how long after the procedure is it still applicable?
Say Candy got her tata's done back in 2002, Now I start a new career alongside Candy say maybe last november, can I ask to touch them?...they're new to me? wot? waat? what!
< Murray....PRESENT!
When I hang mammogram x-rays at the hospital sometimes we get implants. What I don't get is, there's the "implant view" which is just white space with a little outline of skin, and then there is the "implant displacement view" done on the same date, but with regular old boob meat. How do they do that? I guess I should ask, since I'm in the position to ask...
Such a titellating discussion.
(Why doesn't Blogger recognize the word "titellating"? Good question...)
Jason, I have a feeling there are a lot of things you will never live down. Photographs of several of them are included in the manila envelope that will be delivered to you at work tomorrow.
Fireman236, complements are mandatory, even if it is your hairy aunt or your wrinkly, dry grandmother. Just smack her on the ass, mention how fine her rack is lookin' and please pass the yams.
Jandy, the answer is the rest of her life.
Muscleyarm, I expect a full report with explicit photos on my doorstep tomorrow by 7 am.
Andrew, I believe you mean that this is a tit-tasting discussion. It's a discussion about tasting tits... isn't it?
