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