Really not sure what to title this!

Prompted partly by another thread, how would you feel about seeing a woman who’d had mastectomy as a result of breast cancer and chosen not to reconstruct topless on a beach?

I'd think, I'm glad she's alive and well enough to be on a beach in the sun, or some version of that, and then go about my day.
I have had a lot of friends and family die of cancer.

I wouldn't feel anything, why should I?

I probably would want to not stare so that I didn't make them feel uncomfortable. Beyond that I probably wouldn't think anything it's none of my business.

I’d be quietly impressed. Go that woman.

I don’t know, that’s the point.
It’s me, don’t want to perturb anyone.

I would think, wow, what a woman. Braver than I am.

This. Although much more likely I wouldn’t even notice. But if I did then this!

I would think what a brave women if I thought anything but mostly I'd just be reading my book and being oblivious to others.

My friend has had one. Sunbathed topless.. no one battered and eyelid.. well not in front of us.
This was in lefkas.

If I even noticed I wouldn't think anything of it.

From looking at other threads here, you'll be fine as long as you shave your legs and don't wear a thong bikini.

You won’t worry anyone, everyone on the beach is either enjoying themselves, worrying about their kids or paranoid about something there’s no need to be paranoid about. Hope you have a lovely time op x

I'd think, Go warrior woman! I wouldn't find it st all perturbing.

I feel distaste to anyone who sunbathes topless, no matter what their boobs look like.

I would feel admiration for that woman.

The tit police!

I'd be in awe of your courage OP - good for you. I hope you have a great holiday. x

The point is that women who have had mastectomies don’t have boobs. Thank you, though. Every opinion is helpful.

@ByQuaintAzureWasp I prefer to be known as an agent for the ' Breast FEDs' but thanks!

I'd potentially not even notice, but if I did glance I'd think bloody ell what a fab woman.

I suppose then my first thought would be that I am glad the person is well after experiencing such trauma in her life. I would then tut for all of 4 seconds, at every female who is topless because I just don't agree with it! But that's just me. I do of course respect everyone's choice to do as they please ( within the law), including going topless. Mastectomy or full boobage.

My point I suppose is that I wouldn't feel any different about seeing a woman with a mastectomy than I would about a woman with big/small/saggy/ perky boobs .

I’d think “warrior. Hope she’s ok now and enjoying her holiday” then I’d get back to my book and not give it a second thought 💕

I would think "good on her, what a strong woman and I hope she's having a really lovely holiday"

I would feel very happy for you that you were living your life and were able to be on that beach. I would not have one single negative thought just pure admiration and respect.

I would admire you from afar, and be glad that you were enjoying the sun.
