I, too, rarely wear my prothesis. For quite sometime I never wore them but just recently started wearing them again now that summer clothing is being worn. I am very comfortable going "flat chested" and it is also extremely comfortable.. Hey, I look at it this way........all those years of HAVING to wear a bra and wishing I didn't have too (God I was really only kidding - hehehehehehehe) now I don't have to if I don't want to so I don't.

You have to do what you are comfortable with it. As with everything else, we are all different. As the saying goes "different strokes for different folks"

Hugs and God's Blessings,

P.S. When I had just the one breast removed then I always wore a prothesis because that was lopsided and VERY noticeable.
