Male breasts - a question for the girls

[SamScot]

This group may be a little biased, given that the GG's on this site have at least some experience with "men with breasts" but here's my question.

On a couple of occasions I have gone shopping en drab, but with a bra and forms in. With a jacket over top, no one would know unless I wanted them to. I struck up conversations with the shop assistants (female) and proceeded to try on clothes. I then gone back to those stores to buy/try again.

In two instances, on the second or third trip when we are in conversation and both the sales assistant and I have built some rapport, they have said something to the effect of " what about your breasts?" Both have seemed surprised when I tell them they are removable!

So my question is - do women assume that it's natural for a guy who is clearly showing breasts to have natural ones because they do, or have the two experiences I have had just been people being polite and making conversation?

BTW - I love it when a woman comments on my breasts, and they often add a comment about their own - it really makes me feel like I have been accepted into the female club!

PS IN both instances the assistants were very friendly to me, had no issues with me trying on clothes and went out of their way to help. To those of you who are nervous about clothes shopping - pick a quiet store, pick one item and ask if you can try it on. The worst that can happen is they say 'No' and you say 'no problem, I understand' and leave quietly. The best is that you may find a whole new place of acceptance and new wardrobe supplier!

It seems the concept of removable breasts just doesn't always occur with some women, especially younger ones.

In another forum this experience was recently mentioned:

the younger teller said, "Speaking of boobs, why can't I see yours right now? Are you wearing a minimizer bra or something?" I laughed and said, "Ummmmm, because they're in a box right now." She looked puzzled. I explained that my boobs were attachable, and therefore removable - that they weren't real. She asked where I got them. I said Debra Lynn's mastectomy supply. She said, kind of loudly, "You mean that you bought your own boobs? That is so cool! Tell us about it!

erm what is the question? do i expect a guy who appears to have breats to have real breasts? i dunno depends if she was transgendered or just transvestite or crossdresser. if i knew which obviously I'll assume they are removable if i know the person is transvestite or crossdresser but if i think they are transgendered I'll assume the boobs are real. obviously if you are passing I'll just assume you're a chick. so erm hard question.
on most women people are wondering whether they are real or not anyways LOL so i wouldn't worry
