Julie's breasts are fake.

Does that mean they're not part of 'Reality'???

In programming terms, abstraction means regrouping certain concepts together. Concrete means an instance of this abstraction that has its own existence. Hence I would say reality is both concrete and abstract. For example, I can describe a pair of boobs with many different levels of abstraction, one of them could be 'a tool to feed mammals when they grow up', another could be 'a handle for all sorts of fun' :) Yet, breasts still exist in reality (unless they're not real ;P) so they are concrete.
