<p>Well, they are.  In fact, they may well be bigger than yours.  (Unless you&#8217;re obese, then you win.  Or do you?  But I digress.)</p>
<p>I never really noticed how outsized they are until other people pointed it out to me.<br />
&#8220;Dude, those are huge!  Are those <em>real</em>?&#8221;</p>
<p>Irritating?  Yes.  Degrading?  A smidgen.  But I&#8217;ve grown accustomed to the commentary, as well as to the subject&#8211;though I still cringe at how much attention they garner if I wear anything fitted or go for a sprint.  Men don&#8217;t seem to mind them, but they still make me self-conscious, and I feel like women silently judge my character (or, let&#8217;s face it, lack thereof) because of them.</p>
<p>But, like most things one cannot change without invasive surgery, I&#8217;ve grown to embrace them.  You can too, if you ask nicely.</p>
<p><strong>God, you perverts.  I was talking about my calves. </strong> But since that got your attention, it&#8217;s Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so go <a href="http://www.thebreastcancersite.com">here</a> and make sure mine&#8211;and yours, and your mom&#8217;s&#8211;stay healthy.</p>
