Yes!!! At the JCM reunion I thought to myself, "I can't believe that I went to school with all these old folks!"
P-Man, I told Renda I got an envelope at church today and the return address said "JCM Reunion". It was a flyer with an October date about a reunion. I got so excited and then realized it was for Jackson Central Merry, a local high school and they wanted us to post it on the Bulletin Board!!!

We might try another reunion in a few years, but with SOMEONE ELSE in charge!

So, let me see, HO... as an evangelist, I am insecure because of my gynecomastia... so, I choose to have cosmetic surgery... I don't just get a reduction... I get flat pecs "installed" a la the Terminator and simultaneously I choose to have my biceps enhanced to a nice 17", I have a tummy tuck and love handle reduction... then I start wearing tapered white shirts that are fitted top and bottom cuff to cuff and I ALWAYS remove my jacket as I am preaching so you can see the spread of the lats and bulge of the biceps and the narrow waist and OF COURSE my spectacular pecs. I am sure this is all good and godly and in the interest of the kingdom. RIGHT!
All of this of course, as was implied in the original post to which this response was made, to enhance the female and possibly gay male attendance at my revivals.
No, I am quite sure I know nothing about the subject... I am, after all, just an ignorant man.
The part you don't understand and cannot possibly understand is the woman's POV in regard to her body. That's the entire point I was making. So yes, you (respectfully) are an ignorant man in that aspect.

While being a man myself, hopefully I am not overtly ignorant. The thing that I know many are thinking, but most are afraid to say, is that while a MANs "shortcomings" are (thankfully) hidden, a womans assets, or lack thereof are on display for the world to see -yes, even through most cloths. This is why I will not judge someone who gets this done, and neither should anyone else.
Again, I have a theory that the ultra-conservative among us would condemn a woman who gets enhanced, but most would probably be ok with someone who gets a reduction. I see it as just a basic Puritan view on sexuality.... the less the better. Of ANY kind.
I would probably begin to look at her issues of how she thinks about herself in general and wonder if there was a man pushing her to do this or if she was wanting to do it herself. Depending on the answer....I would try and help her work on her self esteem issues and give her some information on risks of surgery.

Reduction is generally for health reasons, enhancement is not.
Even though there are health reasons, back and neck problems - maybe she just wants to fit in her tops better, be a normal C instead of a 38 Long or look good for her man in nice sleepwear.
I'm sure there are just as many reason for women to go the reduction route as there are to enhance.
