		<description>Thanks for your post.

We are so fortunate, Jeena.  I know there are more men like Jimmy and your husband out there.

Really, if a man is so unhappy with the way his partner looks without breasts then how much value can he be to her?  Her cancer is then all about him and not her and them. 

It is fair and right for a partner to be sad and mourn for a while.  He has feelings, too.  But, that sadness and mourning is best dealt with mutually.  It will make any partnership stronger.

I hope other men and women will share their experiences with us.</description>

		<description>You are so right, Sybil. As I was reading your post, I could see my own husband being described.  He didn't want me to get the implants and he stood by me all though my illnesses, my explantation surgery and complications, and has never allowed me to feel like less of a woman.  These experiences truly DO make some of us stronger and closer.

Sadly, occasionally, on our forum, we see women who have the opposite experience.  A few of their husbands confess they no longer are attracted to their explanted wives--making them feel as though they were only loved for 2 oversized fake bags.  My heart goes out to the women who have not had supportive mates in their lives.

If only we could reach more men in our culture!  They are being brainwashed as to what is "normal" and what constitutes true "beauty" and many have become so shallow in their quest for the perfect female. I am convinced that more women would remove their implants if they could only be certain they would not lose their significant other.

Thanks for sharing this touching post!</description>
