Well, my Dad just called to wish me happy birthday, and I told him about the potential breast reduction surgery. He's not in favor, and he's distressed by the idea. He feels that me disliking my breasts is me disliking myself, and he feels personally responsible for having raised me such that I dislike myself. I tried to explain that it's not the same, that I think I'll look more like my real self without these things hanging off my front like they do, but he doesn't really get it. (How he expresses that is, "The words you said made sense.") Eventually he decided that he might as well not say any more about it. Oh well.
