Arguments against:

It's going to be rather noticeable. I did not design this one small. While I can easily dress to conceal it for work and day-to-day life, it'll be really obvious in a swimsuit. Do I care? Well...I guess it depends on who I'm going swimming with. Most people, I don't see it as a problem.

I'm going to get older. My body's going to shift. What's this going to look like when I'm sixty? Well, the point was about what it stands for, more than how it looks. The added wrinkles and sag will quite possibly render it less attractive, and I need to figure out how much that matters to me.

I'm going to get married at some point. I don't know how, or when, or possibly even why, but I know God's got it planned. And I don't know whether it's the kind of thing where my husband would think it was cool, or he'd be disappointed by it.

Even if he's cool with it, there's a real possibility that I'm going to be a grandmother someday. Well, I guess that's not really a motivator, Grandma's going to be pretty odd in the grandkids opinions anyway. :)

And, possibly the biggest motivator, how much it'll cost, vs. a number of much better things I'd rather do with that money. Like freeing a couple of girls from slavery.

So, in conclusion - I'd go for it, if I knew my husband would think it was cool, and I couldn't give the money to anything else. But since I know of better places for the finances, and I don't yet know my husband's view, I think this one's out.

It does look really cool, though.
