Hi everyone.
I suppose I can forget the belief of my projection being illusionary. I was talking to an acquaintance and the conversation got directed towards the topic of food and sleep. At one point he said I'm a skinny guy and I asked how did he come to that conclusion. (I see myself as having a healthy weight: neither underweight nor overweight.) His basis for me being skinny is that I have 'titties.' In other words, he's noticed that my torso isn't anywhere close to being flat like a typical male chest would be. Interesting enough, he didn't make this comment in a crude or derogatory tone; he said it as a matter of fact. I didn't press the issue because he didn't seem to care one way or the other, and I didn't want to create the impression that I'm self-conscious or ashamed about my 'development.'
After I've thought more about this, I'm thinking these are two possibilities to explain the skinny comment.

I would like to hear your thoughts/comments on this.

- He assumes I have such a skinny stomach/waist that it creates projection in the breast area.
- He assumes I was overweight at one time. However, I lost a lot of the weight but somehow for one reason or another have kept the breasts.

I would like to hear your thoughts/comments on this.
