....I loved the lady in the red dress. She was so bubbly anddown to earth. I could relate to her. I do agree that we view our self- worthby the size of our breasts, People can be so hurtful. My ex-husband told me Iwas shaped like a pear, "Big ass and no tits".....now why does thatstill bother me? I was moved by the film. I will remember it and hope to shareit with a few other people.

I did sit and watch the entire DVD. It was quite amazing. I was intrigued and mesmerized. I absolutely loved the way the natural flora was integrated into the program of interviews. From an artistic point of view - the ever changing fabric backgrounds eased the monotony of many interviews. I was fascinated by the history and the way the interviews were placed. Loved the variety of women - especially with the older women who (unfortunately) society has deemed too old to be sexual and speak about sexuality! They were a riot. Everyone knew I was watching Boobalogues and it was interesting to see how it drew my coworkers to my desk to watch with me. They would say they had to get back to work and 5 minutes later...as bees to honey - they were back watching again.
Great job!

What a great film! An influx of emotion went through me as I listened to the various stories and experiences told by the women in this film. I had a negative experience as a young adult going through puberty. I wished for and contemplated breast enlargement procedures. I was very unhappy with how I looked and how I perceived others looking at me. I had always been rather thin and unshapely. Then I had a lump removed from my breast and continue to have more "problem areas." The film helped me focus on how lucky I am that my lump was not cancer. Each lump since has been benign as well.
But one of the differences in my life was my husband's constant reassuring me that he loved me just the way I was. Having the support of family is truly a blessing. This film shows how we CAN get through trying times in our lives.
It was wonderful to hear the stories of others that went through similar situations and how they accepted themselves for who God made them to be, as I have learned to do. My hat's off to you Kathy for going places in this film that others would not dare go. I laughed, cried, smiled and just really enjoyed watching this film.
