I guess, since I have always been small chested anyway, I probably would not feel such a tragic loss. However, I cannot predict what I have not experienced. I have to respectfully acknowledge that. Perhaps I might be more understanding if I were to be in such a position of loss at some time. I do not mean any disrespect in the statement, but it has always been a question I have wanted to ask.

I, as a woman, have tried to help a former mate understand that I loved him as he was, ED and all. However, he could not believe me. He was convinced in his own mind that a woman could not love him if he was not a "full" man anymore. I could not comprehend it then and still am trying to grasp it now, many years later. This is why I ask it.
