Responce to "A Few Words About Breasts"

This story made me feel as though I was not alone in feelings of insecurities. This story seemed to me to be almost every girl's feelings about some body part of another. Each experience she talked about I could relate to. Im sure for the boys in the class it was more of an uncomfortable and less realtable story, but I know for myself and probably most girls in the class it was a necessary read. It makes you realize that you are never alone in the feelings that you get and it is always comforting to make that message reasured. I felt pure enjoyment reading this because although it is a scaring experience it is a relief to read that your not the only one with the issues she adresses. My favorite part in the story was when she was talking about how her friends were complaining about how thier boobs were to big and they were telling Nora all the ways that having small boobs makes her lucky. I think this was a part in the story where she described the situation and captured the essance of teenage girls to the tee. There is always something better than what they have in thier own eyes and I enjoyed seeing how perfectly she protrayed that attitude.
