I just asked my other half... "no implants", he says. "it's like buying a classic car and finding it's full of filler!" lol

No-one needs implants. A woman is just as much a woman with or without breasts. Big, small, misshapen, with a mastectomy etc etc she is still a woman and her beauty is so much more than her breasts.

I do very much agree with you on all points....and you wrote it in such a positive and beautiful way. I know its about rejoicing women and being a women and I have said something similiar in womens goups Ive worked with in the past. But, when Mum had a Mastectomy and decided for her own reasons not to have reconstruction. *I* was so upset (my stuff), she wasnt...Mum was just glad to be alive.
I was shocked and horified at what they'd done to her... her scare etc is particulary bad (even the surgeon thinks so). Suppose it was a lot to take in for everyone at the time.
Yet, my Aunt who had a double Mastecomy and also chose not to have reconstruction looks great..
Based on what Ive said, I know I would go for reconstruction if ever I had to make a choice. Mums scare will haunt me forever!
