Navy paying for breast enlargements
Sep 16th, 2007 at 5:35pm
 
Apparently this is necessary for the 'mental health' of our female officers in the Navy:

The Australian Defence Force has denied paying for breast enlargements so that female sailors could look sexy and said taxpayers only footed the bill if the surgery was needed for psychological reasons.

The navy paid $10,000 each for the sailors, aged 25 and 32, to have cosmetic breast enlargements, News Limited newspapers have reported.

Queensland is a step closer to becoming the first Australian state to regulate cosmetic surgery among teenagers after overwhelming public support for the move.

In October Premier Anna Bligh released a discussion paper on the subject, due to anecdotal evidence suggesting cosmetic procedures such as nose jobs and breast enhancements were widely sought and received among teens.

The majority of the 290 public submissions received since the paper's release are in favour of regulating cosmetic surgery, as well as the use of solariums by teenagers, Ms Bligh said on Sunday.
