Women who have gotten breast reduction... is it worth it?

Your question: "Women who have gotten breast reduction... is it worth it?"

__________________________________________

Select one:

___ "Yes! Yes! Yes! My own life was absolute misery before I had my boobs cut down to reasonable size. Now people no longer stare at me and I don't get any more of those dirty looks from other women that used to be so intimidating to me! And my back at last is pain-free! Call now for a free private consultation with my employer."

___ "I had my boobs cut off and now get $150,000 just to do celebrity appearances and chit chat. Previously I was a no-talent boob but now I am a no-boobs celebrity and a real man, too. Everyone loves me now for what I am--except for the Nazi homophobe Hillary haters. I am breast free, and I have a cool beard, too. I recommend breast reduction to every one of my currently female fans."

___ "No one can know until they try it personally."

___ "I made $15,000 for cutting off that woman's breasts for no reason. It was well worth it for me."

___ No.

Your story: "I'm only 21 years old and am a 42H. I'm tired of my back always being sore and all the comments and jokes people make about them. I've heard that's breasts will grow until you're 26 years old, no idea if it's true. I know I'm young but I've been thinking about it. Is it really worth it? As much as I hate having large boobs it's weird to imagine not having them."

It is unlikely that your breasts are causing back pain. If you are, say, about one meter high and your breasts constitute 25% of your body mass, you may have a problem. That would be very rare. The things that cause back pain are not usually visible from the outside (although severe spinal deformities are an exception).

"I want to thank [some professional celebrity] for being here at her first political event. Her endorsement, her strong words, her passion, her example, her advocacy on behalf of the transgender community, particularly transgender women of color, is just so extraordinary…. You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic -- you name it…. Now, some of those folks — they are irredeemable, but thankfully they are not America."

"Trans Chaz Bono Eyes Risky Surgery to Construct Penis... Chaz Bono may take the final step in his transition from female to male and have penile reconstruction, a complex procedure that can be risky. Born Chastity, the son of ‘60s pop icons Sonny and Cher, Bono says he knew from an early age that he was born in the wrong body. Since going public in 2009, he has injected himself with testosterone, grown body hair and surgically removed his breasts."
