Why are so many cis males getting breast reduction surgery tho?
Edit I didn’t know that many dudes had boobs. Makes sense, thanks :3
Especially when you can get them enlarged! C’mon fellas. Have fun with it.
Seriously though, I get that this could be terribly embarrassing if you have boobs as a man. I feel bad for kids in gym locker rooms getting teased.
Now, imagine how bad it would be if you were a man with breasts and a vagina and woman’s name and you were forced to stay that way. Truly sounds like a nightmare.
I’ve got to get to a damn gym right now
Dude, I saw that picture of Elliot Page after he got his breasts removed. He looked HAPPY. Rejuvenated. I want to get rid of mine to. I’ve never wanted gender affirming care as much as I do now as a cis gender man, these guys are getting it done. It’s clearly making them feel better.
Because the alternative is a brossiere.
I believe the options were the manssiere or the bro.
Brossieres are known to cause medical issues, mostly back, spine, wear and damage.

We do these (breast reduction surgeries on men) every now and then. Not super often… I’ve been in maybe 10 of them? Of the ones I’ve been in, one was a dude with breast cancer - chopped out the cancer, then chopped down the other moob so they’d heal to be the same size. All of the other ones were gym rats who took steroids and grew some boobs. None were overweight.
I’ve only been in a handful, so grain of salt, but in my experience weight is NOT a factor.
…and this seems like a good time for a plug: Men can 100% get breast cancer. Not often, but possible. If any of you fellas feel a weird lump in your moobs, DO NOT hesitate to get it checked out!!
When I was at the Mayo Clinic in March, I met a couple there, the guy had breast cancer 10 years ago and his wife was in remission for appendix cancer.
It’s different for everyone, I’m overweight and don’t have tiddies at all, but I’ve seen men who looked like a fairly healthy weight who had noticeable tiddies.
I was wondering when they would start to figure out that maybe it’s a bad idea for the government to get between people and their doctors.
Most will only realize its a bad idea when it affects them. Just like they can only empathize with someone who is experiencing the exact same thing they are.
“Getting between people and doctors” is maybe the wrong wording, that’s the excuse snake oil salesmen and antivaxxers use. The FDA and other regulatory bodies should get between people and doctors, the opiod crisis peddled by big pharma is enough proof.
Remember during the height of COVID when quacks (and the president) were prescribing dewormers?
Please, don’t call it that. It was, yes, technically “the president” at the time, but we don’t have to call it that anymore, or ever again — even when referring to that (not brief enough) period in history.
or ever again
Well they do vastly outnumber us and have a ton of their own gender based insecurities so it makes sense
This is ABSURD! Somebody needs to AMEND these laws to allow little girls to get Breast Implants!
