The supersymmetric standard model with right-handed neutrino supermultiplets generically contains a soft supersymmetry breaking mass term: \ensuremathδL=B_\ensuremathνM\stackrel\ifmmode \else \~\fi\ensuremathνR\stackrel\ifmmode \else \~\fi\ensuremathνR/2. We call this operator the ``neutrino B term.'' We show that the neutrino B term can give the dominant effects from the neutrino sector to lepton-flavor-violating processes and to lepton electric dipole moments.
