Oh. Well in that case, we disagree because I find that view sexist.
Some men refuse to see female doctors for similar reasons, that a female doctor can't comment or understand male related issues. I think the assumption here is that just because the Pdoc happens to be a man, suddenly his knowledge and expertise goes out the door and every suggestion he is making becomes that of a man at a club about to pick up the sexiest woman, not of a person trained in medicine and well aware of the various challenges women face in the society. So it becomes: Men like big breasts so that's why he is cautioning against surgery, right?
