As William Shakespeare wrote..."A rose by any other name would smell as sweet"....I'm happy with whatever is chosen, so long as people know it's a group for those of us who are, or will soon be without a breast or breasts. Technically speaking, I'm not 'flat' either. My chest looks like a motocross track for BMX cyclists, with a squiggly line traversing from one armpit to the other over mounds and dips. Sometimes I think I look like a pale, cylindrical bratwurst sausage that someone tried to take a bite out of, other times it looks like a huge shark had a go at me, then spat me out after one chomp as I was too sour. Whichever and whatever, a back and forth of semantic debate could go on until forever, and there would still be some who would not be happy. Another quote by poet John Lydgate..."You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time".
