For most women, one of the main reasons they fear undergoing a double mastectomy is the thought of giving up that part of themselves which makes them feel like a women.
But according to San Francisco Appeal contributor Babe Scanlon, this difficulty in coping with a double mastectomy is mainly due to how our culture tends to equate femininity with boobs. She writes:
