I just watched an HBO special starring Tig Notaro. It has hilarious. In it she talks about her battle with breast cancer and her bilateral mastectomy. She chose not to have any reconstruction. She then takes off her shirt and performs the rest of her show topless.
As a woman at high risk for breast cancer, I get a yearly mammogram. Two women in my office had breast cancer this year alone (both treated successfully). But if I had to lose one or have both breasts removed, I don't know what I'd do. Reconstruction? Tattoos? Leave it?
What would you do? How much are your breasts tied to your identity?
Men? What do you think? What about your loved one? Could you date a woman with one or no breasts?
