You have to love 'listening' in to a bunch of men talking on these subjects. I particularly love the ones that mock her. I agree it is drastic but she isn't the first to have made that choice based on her genetic screening. Would I? I don't know because breast cancer doesn't run in my family and I haven't watched my mom die of it.

The guys asking if it matters are somehow, I guess, tossing this sort of thing in with reporting what restaurant a celeb eats at and that kind of rubbish 'news'. I'm not at all a celebrity watcher but coming forward with this takes courage particularly in her career position which is mainly based on her sex appeal. She didn't have to make this known. She could have just had reconstructive surgery and batted away rumors about a boob job and nobody would have ever known. Instead, she is talking publicly about something that goes right to the soul of most women and using her fame - for once - for good to open a discussion amongst women.

Brad Pitt must be gay? What a dumb ass statement even if it was said in an attempt to be witty with the bros. If you are ever lucky enough to have a long term partner and she has to have a mastectomy, I hope you do her a favor and leave her rather than make her feel like any less of a woman.

Carry on with the clever comments...
