So OK - I have several days in a row by myself and I decided to try gluing on my breast forms and living the life for as long as I can.
HAH!
Don't believe the stories, some of which I've written, about gluing on a pair of falsies and instantly having a great pair of boobs. Not no how - not no way!
I applied Nair and remove the chest hair, I cleansed and wiped with alcohol. I marked position. I spread the glue carefully, following directions. I waited for tacky. I applied the forms and lay there for ten minutes, then put on my bra. So far - so good. I could feel the weight of my breasts. I finished dressing and all was right with the world.
For about half an hour. The top of the forms started peeling away, so I used a q-tip and applied a bit more glue. This time it lasted about twenty minutes. As it was getting late, I went to bed, still wearing my bra to keep things from shifting. A couple of hours later I woke up sweating - the weather here in Texas has turned warm. My forms were peeling off about halfway down from the top.
I went back to sleep, waking up with sticky forms wobbling in my bra, so I unhooked it and found it was glued to my chest and my forms. This crap does NOT happen in the stories! Likewise, in the stories the remover removes the glue. Not MY remover. I spent quite some time peeling shards of latex off my falsies, off my chest and off my bra.
Not being faint of heart I tried again and once more failed, so I'm back to just putting the darn things into my bra like always. Still feels good to be dressed, but another fantasy shot to hell when I actually tried it.

Latex was a mistake
Ricky my pet, of all the people on this mixed up channel I would have thought you would be one of the top dogs to do things right. BUT..., if you want to use latex as a glue don't let me stop you. There are dozens of different kinds of latex and as far as being a body glue, nada. You don't suppose doctors use latex when they slit someone open and glue the edges back do you? Tricky question isn't it? I have a gallon of latex if you persist. Otherwise I suggest you try the search engines for the right medical grade glue. I'm not suggesting "spirit gum" which the actors and actresses use to glue on extra body parts but it does work. Think of acting for an hour or two and then removing the appliance.
And then there is that instant body glue, where I read the bank robbers glued everyone's hands to the top of the desks. Kinda works for glue on fingernails. I had mixed results and a couple of my nails popped off before the day was done. Don't try contact cement as it has acetone. I hate to think what one's breasts would look like after cooking with that against the skin.
When it's all boiled down it is up to the medical grade glue designed for the very thing one is trying to accomplish, fix the breasts on and make them stick. (that's a pun) Yes, it's expensive but when stepping out does one want to keep adjusting what is inside one's bra? Or just grow a pair of Mother Nature's and forget the glue thingy. Yes they take time and aren't instant but they won't come lose even if one has night sweats or goes swimming.
Hugs Ricky, I so love your stories and your warped sense of humor.

It said 'medical grade's on the bottle
I didn't have enough time to get my MD before I used it.
Never tried it so "grain of salt"
Tacky comment, I don't need those things so you're on your own.

Sounds about right.
I purchased arguably the very first generation of glue on breast forms called the Mirage back in 1986. It cost a mint at 1000 dollars.
Sweat is the major thing so maybe an anti-perspirant might help as the stuff builds up under the form and eventually it softens the skin. I still remember all the broken skin I had in the process of pulling the stupid things off.
Post transition I went the sensible route once I was able to afford it and got implants.
I've had the same set of implants for 23 years now. I attribute their longevity to the fact they are small (only 250cc) and likely under inflated consequently so there is less stress.
I know we have fantasies of big breasts and all that, but I have a small body so a B cup works fine.
Unfortunately
at 300 pounds I need a humongous cup if I want my boobs to stick out farther than my pot belly.
I applied Nair and remove the chest hair
Ouch!

On the up-side
you now have great material for a potentially very amusing story.
This is all yours. I will not steal the idea (without asking).
Great artists...
... steal. And they're good enough to get away with it.

The easiest way
to stop your boobs from falling off is to grow your own, well it worked for me.

Believe Me!
I would love to, but I got stuck with a supersized and very masculine body. Besides, my wife is fine with dressup but I doubt permanent boobs would enhance the relationship.
When you thik about it
When you realize that a significant part of the dust in your house is dead skin you begin to see how the fantasy about attached appliances vs the reality conflict. An hour? Sure. A day? maybe. Weeks? No. Your whole skin surface will have sloughed off and been replaced by new tissue in that time.
I stumbled on this interesting link. http://www.blooberry.com/bformfaq/index.html I have no way to judge the quality of the info there. But it is fun reading and might find it's way into my writing.

Gorilla Glue
I've heard that Gorilla Glue can work really well. You wouldn't even need to remove hair first.
Gorilla Glue?
I resemble a gorilla too much already!
