I respect women's right to do whatever they want with their bodies, but I find it sad so many seem to be so inconvenienced by their boobs. Women naturally have boobs. Just because men like boobs a lot doesn't mean we can't appreciate you as a person. Jerks will be jerks, and, if they can't find boobs, they'll find something else to be jerks about. You shouldn't need to lose your boobs to be respected.
But I know my opinion won't change anything. It looks like future women won't have boobs. I'm not sure if this makes me a bigot, but I think it's sad.
What about those of us who feel weighed down by our boobs? Boobs are basically like sandbags that are permanently strapped to your chest. They can weigh quite a bit, and that weight can cause backaches, slumping posture, and other kinds of discomfort. (The weight of my boobs even causes my breathing to feel restricted sometimes.)
Also, what about those of us with saggy boobs? Once your boobs start to sag, people judge you for that. (There's less judgment towards saggy boobs when the sagging is due to pregnancy, but for those of us whose boobs have sagged due to weight loss (as is the case with me), people tend to be less kind.) I'm actually afraid to be intimate with anyone because I feel like they'd be disappointed with my saggy boobs.
Seriously, though, if a woman dislikes her boobs, then that's fine, and no one should make her feel bad about that.
