I think it is. To be honest, I never questioned him about it very closely because it was the last thing on my mind at the time and I'm still not sure I want to do it.
Frankly, if I could go around lop-sided without it being an issue for everyone else, I would, but as much as I'd like it to be otherwise, it's just not socially acceptable. I don't see myself as "lost" without my breast and I don't think I'm big enough on the other side for it to cause much of a back issue. I don't really want further surgery and I find the bras and prosthesis a bit uncomfortable. No win situation, really. So, happy to wait a year and see where it takes me.
