Hi guys,
I saved money all my life to have surgery. I finally saved it and I was ready to have it because I am tired of the slavery that gynecomastia brings. But when I talked about it with my girlfriend she freaked out about me being vain.
It was really important to me that she would support me on this but I guess I will have it to suck all by myself like always.
I am being vain?
Thanks

No you're not being vain.. Ask her if she would get surgery if her clitoris looked like a penis....

No you're not being vain!! she has to understands...if she was flat chested she would prolly want to get fake boobs, all you want to do is get yours removed!  and it's not like she has to pay for them all she has to do is be there for you and support you!  That's not hard to do at all!

I saved up for mine to and now im scared to get the damn surgery!!

* a man is more than a body will ever tell

While there are some who have surgery to satisfy their vanity, I do not think that this is all that common.

Wanting to look and feel your best is not vanity unless it becomes obsessive.

Of greater importance is the fact that you have a girl friend who thinks you are vain and who lacks any empathy with what you are going through.

I wouldn't be able to say how important it may be for you to have surgery, but you are in great need of a more compassionate girl friend.

It is a little vain and that's OK.  Is there vanity involved in getting a good haircut, wearing nice clothes or going to the gym so you can wear nice clothes?  Sure, and it's well within the normal bounds of vanity.  So is fixing man boobs.

It is a little vain. 

The Merriam Webster online dictionary defines 'vain' as:

'Having or showing undue or excessive pride in one's appearance or achievements'.

I hardly think that wanting to have your G gone fits into the category of 'undue or excessive' pride...

Good point my man!!!  ;)


Or... If his g/f had a full beard (check this out), would she want a procedure to have the facial hair permanently removed? Damn straight she would!!! Just as Stephanie longed for... ;)

Does the above linked article sound familiar?  ;)
