Even though my breasts aren't that big, I'm 34B, I know the feeling you ladies are talking about. Sometimes my bra becomes unbearably hot and irritating. I love that feeling of blessed relief when I finally get home and can take it off.

Well, I see your point but maybe it's just the way I was brought up but my mother NEVER went braless around me, she's also a DD. She has countless bras in every color imaginable.
I'm just uncomfortable about it.
My boobs hold them selves up fine, ie no bra and they don't sag at all. I hope that maybe with bra usage I make be able to help them preserve their elasticity longer. I wear a sportsbra at night.

I always wear one because I want my breasts to stay pert for a looong time.

Funnily enough, though I love my bras, I often go out at night with no bra - usually because the skimpy tops I wear don't look nice with bra straps showing. Since I'm small, I don't think anyone notices if I'm wearing one or not. Unless my nipples start saying hello. I actually don't care - I kind of like feeling a bit cheeky.

My boobs feel pretty much the same with or without bra, except if I'm doing sport.

I know what you mean, I was raised never to let your nipples show and even today my mom gives me a hard time about certain shirts. You could do worse than offending a few people anyways.

This is starting to remind me of the episode of Sex and the City when the girls discover those fake nipples, lol.

I guess it is just a matter of where your personal comfort level is, but since the only thing that would hide my nipples is padding, I choose to reject that. Plus, I do not like the look of lace or seams under clothing so my only other option is a lightweight, seamless bra. Bras are uncomfortable enough as it is.

The way I see it, having discernible nipples is no different than wearing jeans or skirts that conform to the shape of your ass.

You RUN with full C-cups? Damn, you be brave, girl. I'm too self conscious about bouncing.

After having 3 kids, they kind of remind me of a couple of used cars. But I never thought much about them before then.

I can run now....I have NEVER (since I got boobs) been able to run....I was a double D by the time I was 14....I can exercise.....I can wrap a normal towel around me now, I dont have to move them out of the way to shave my legs. I dont have to sleep in bra during my period because they hurt so badly (in fact since the surgery, PMS boobs have disappeared). I can wear a tank top without a bra and not have to worry about bra straps showing. I dont have to pick up my boobs to see my nipples.

I no longer feel that my boobs enter the room 30 seconds before I do. My boobs dont sit on the table or desk now. My seat belt actually feels like its supposed to. I can buy womens cut tshirts.

I could go on and on and on about the new life I have with smaller boobs but I wont bore you lol

just suffice it to say Im really mad at myself it took me SO long to get up the guts to have this done, and I have to thank the breast cancer scare I had, if I hadnt had to have a lumpectomy I'd have never gone to breast doctor on my own.

oh...one more great thing? Because it was medically necessary my 30k surgery cost me 100 bucks out of pocket cant get THAT with implants hehehehe

you want to seen before/after pics? (warning wont be safe for work of course)

http://messageboard.techsavy.net/upload/newboobs.jpg

I had 4 pounds of boobs removed.....and there is NO way in hell I regret not being large breasted anymore.....(I went from a F to a full C cup)
I took a look, and I have to say that even so, they are still quite voluptuous. I cannot imagine how much your back ached lugging them around, no offense intended there does not seem to be a PC way to word that.

As far as myself, I am fine with the size of my breasts though I can relate to the nipple concerns. I feel that they are always protruding no matter what it is that I wear. You finally find the perfect bra that fits comfortably only to find out that they stopped manufacturing them when you return to make your next purchases.

lol No I understand what you meant. Actually I couldnt shop. I could walk in the grocery store, or walmart or home depot (basically anywhere that had concrete based floors) and with in 5 minutes my back would hurt so badly I'd have to take a pain pill when when I got home....I couldnt stand at the kitchen sink for long....(fortunately I have a husband that doesnt mind my inherit dislike for shopping and would do it for us)

Now, I can go anywhere and not suffer the back pain, its like I got, not just new boobs, but a new back as well lol

(oh and thanks for being the one person to actually say they looked at the pictures lol)

I am very proud of them now.....very

They called me "flatsey" in middle school. I went from an A to B cup between 8th grade and high school and stopped wearing a bra when I was 18.

Got pregnant and nursed when I was 25. After baby I was a C. Fast forward another nine years and two nursing infants, I was a D. I'd gained weight after the second baby (C-section got me lazy and depressed) and became a DD.

Anyway, I vary between a C and D, depending on the bra. My girls are in pretty good shape considering all that trauma They're definitely not as pert as they were when they were only 20, but they still function just as well as they always did. I figure if my nipples aren't pointing down and they're not anywhere near my tummy, I'm doing okay.
( .) (. )

As for the Victoria Secret bras, I wear them when I go out and need some sexy cleavage. I couldn't be comfortable wearing them all the time. Besides, I've been told that men like to see what they're getting.

I love my darling girls. Mine were a little late in showing up. My younger sister's breasts were larger than mine for years. She used to call me "tangerines" or "mosquito bites" and it was pretty hurtful. But here they are, 36D and nicely shaped. And my peeps love them, too.

THANK YOU to everyone who has shared thus far and continues to keep this dialogue going... I think this is important to talk about.

I go braless all the time. That is the one small perk to being small breasted. I have A cups, hence, I am part of the itty bitty titty club (a term I used to hate, but have now embraced)
Part of not wearing a bra is because of my fibro, bras often push on my rib cage, causing it to swell and be more painful than normal, hence I wear a camisole and call it good, sometimes my nipples show and so i'll wear a tank top underneath my shirt, but usually, not much shows.

As far as my worrying about sagging... with breasts my size, sagging is not really going to happen so I don't worry about it.
I wanted to comment that I think satisfaction with breast size has allot to do with proportion to your body frame.
I am a fairly petite woman and have a small bone structure, about 127lbs and have a small frame, so I think I'm fairly proportional. I like to think of them as perfection in minature form on good days

something I would suggest to everyone is this:

I love love love this documentary I saw yesterday: called simply "Breasts: A documentary" (Netflix has it. Actually it currently has it in the 'watch instantly category under 'doc.')
Overview:
"Armed with an all-female camera crew, filmmaker Meema Spadola talked to 22 women (many of whom agreed to appear topless) about the role breasts have played in their varied life experiences. Providing a nakedness in their responses that's difficult to deny, the film's subjects include a voluptuous transsexual, a stripper with implants, an 11-year-old on the cusp of puberty, a 420-pound comedienne and an 84-year-old grandmother."

Amazon.com: Breasts - A Documentary: Tawny Peaks, Rachel Rocketts, Susan Mason, Birgitte, Meema Spadola: Movies & TV Amazon.com: Breasts - A Documentary: Tawny Peaks, Rachel Rocketts, Susan Mason, Birgitte, Meema Spadola: Movies & TV

I've seen this flick...and yes, I got it from Netflix...there is also a companion doc from the same director about men and their cocks...if anyone's interested.

http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Private...434?trkid=1660

I recommend them both for a healthy dose of sexual reality.

My little ones (14 and almost 16 now) make me laugh when I think about sports bras. The older one loves hers, the baby wishes she didn't have them. The funny thing is that they wear their bras to sleep. I think it originated because they're at their dad's every other weekend --- stepmother with teen stepbrother and sister --- and weren't comfortable enough with their bodies when this began a couple of years ago.

Although I told them if they were shy, a sports bra would be a lot more comfortable for sleeping. They still sleep in the same damned bras. At least I know their breasts will stay gorgeous.

Thanks again for this post, SP. I do love my just less-than-perfect breasts.

Like some of the women who have posted, my breasts are too large to be comfortable. But when I was young, sexually they were a lot of fun (for me and him). They are just part of my body and I accept them.

I had to think about this as a wider issue a few years ago when a mate died rather than have a mastectomy. It made me realise that I am not so tied to my breasts as part of my female nature that I would die for them.

Speaking of boobies, it took me a long time to be comfortable with my breasts. I'm Asian and live in Vancouver, so it is really really awkward to see many plumper and fuller bodies of my ethnicities in my city. In fact it was down right horrible to feel ugly and fat amongst a crowd of toothpicks that call anything above a size 5 "obese". I used to wear sports bras to flatten them, when all the other girls stuffed their bras.

I'm a 36 F. I was a 38D cup, but when I went on birth control i grew to a 38D (I was so sure my boobs didn't grew but the sizes at La Senza just shrunk) but the band size was always too big. Then I went to CHANGE and they fitted me into a 36 F bra and my boobs have never been better looking.

I love my breasts now and I love the way my boyfriend looks at them and how he will sometimes (meaning: all the time) forget to make eye contact or when I catch him sneaking a glimpse. Sure, I find flaws here and there (my nipples are too small, I have small areolas, they are slightly lop sided and they don't push together naturally), but overall, i'm very happy about them. They make finding clothes a nuisance at times, but they have been relatively perky for their age.

Yeah, so when I go shopping at the asian malls with my aunts and they go "oh, that won't fit you because you are too fat" (they are mean)
I say, "yeah, I guess my luscious 36F boobs just won't fit in the chest"

good for you!

my gf is Thai and I am often shocked by some of the comments her family makes about her large chested cousin, i find their standards for extreme thiness and non acceptance of larger breasts a bit shocking.

the asian idealism of beauty is more like malnutrition than anything else. I think I heard of some study saying that breast sizes in China is actually growing because of better nutrition.
Many of them are so caught up in being thin, that "slim centers" are one of the largest growing industries in china. And these places focus on restricting most food groups and malnutrition to achieve slimness for already slim girls.

It is sickening.

I love my curves

Oh dear, that is depressing, creepysusie. Malnutrition? So that's how they do it. I was wondering if there was some sort of trick. Plenty of perfectly slender asian women here at Berkeley. Thanks for letting me in on the secret. I think I'll stop coveting those frighteningly petite frames.

Much of it is malnutrition.
If you look at the typical chinese menu of families in China many years ago, the diet consisted of boiled vegetables (that are later stir fryed), white rice and very little meat.
There are barely any vitamins left in boiled vegetables. White Rice is all carbs without the whole grains for fiber. Tofu, arguably, is only a partial protein. It doesn't form a full protein unless paired with something else (which i don't remember, but Bill Nye taught me this a long time ago).
I mean, i'm not saying that all thin asians are like this, but eating disorders are definately not foreign to any culture in the world, but it is definately more prominent and less spoken of in other countries

There's definately a limit to all things in life. Just as it is unhealthy to be 5'11 and only 90 pounds, being 4'3 and 600 pounds is not a healthy option either.
In my opinion, you have to love your own body to change it for the better. You can't lose weight because someone said something or this person said that. You have to do it for self-motivation. You love yourself, that is why you are exercizing. That's the best mentality to go with, in my opinion.
That's what's so great about this thread! It's women coming together being happy about themselves. We already get this negative influence from advertising and media telling us how imperfect we are, but i think it is the imperfections that make us human, real and lovable.
If we change ourselves because someone else says we are fat, then even when we become thinner, we still won't be happy.

I love myself for having curves. I have parts that i love less than others, but hell, even the most perfect humans will be like that.

Oh, I believe it. My Thai family has often called me a "giant" when I'm visiting... having a curvy figure doesn't mean anything to them. Thank goodness for my Icelandic genes and what they added to my boobs (and the rest of my body, which I like).

I'm...satisfied with my breasts at the moment. My boyfriend LOVES them, and that helps to give me confidence boosts often. But it is my weight gain that makes me only feel satisfied with them. My weight gain has changed my bra size from a small B cup to a full C *sighs*
But I'm slowly changing my eating habits, and getting back into the sports I used to do. Who knows, once I drop the extra weight, I might love my boobies!. :P Hehe.
I was surprised to hear some ladies in here say Victoria's Secret bras are uncomfortable! They are pretty much the only bras I wear now! So comfortable, I love them!
The only time I hate bras is when the strap adjustment "falls down." I have really sloping shoulders, and my straps are always falling off. Once they fall, the whole bra has to be readjusted again. I hate my sloping shoulders, they can't hold up backpacks, purses, bags, anything! Damn things...
I wish I could like sports bras like you ladies as well. I cannot stand the feel of a racerback bra on me, it makes me feel..too secure I guess, and like I'm strapped in or something. I dunno, they feel awkward and uncomfortable to me. Maybe i need to keep looking for a better sports bra *shrugs*, I've been searching for the perfect one for 8 years now! -_- Oy vey... haha
Ah well, to each their own. I've always been uncomfortable with fabric too close to my neck or too secure by my collarbone like turtlenecks, racerback bras, those high-collared t-shirts. Most of my shirts are v-neck, or at least loose at the neck.

If you're still searching, sports bras don't necessarily bind you down or have racerbacks. A couple of examples:

I don't like Victoria Secret is because they never have my size. I often have to venture into the 38D section, but after less than a total of 5 wears, the band drags and it is so uncomfortable. When I try on bras, I put it at the tightest snap so there is no room for it to stretch and once it does, the bra is useless to me. The 36DD are sooo uncomfortable because the cup still isn't the size of the 38D. The cups are smaller and sometimes they don't point in the right direction. That's just me though. Victoria Secret fits some body types and some not so much. The strangest thing is that it is not all exclusive to thinner people. I know a girl who's just hugely boob-tastic and she fits in there just fine. I'm not as big as her, but they don't fit my shape.

C'est la vie, eh?

I love my breasts most of the time. If I had the money, I don't think I would get implants, but I might have them lifted. That's probably about it. I like them well enough to post them, so that's saying something.

I like my breast when they are in a bra. Otherwise its noticeable, to me anyway, that my right breast is larger than my left. I've jokingly said I'd get half a boob job and have them lifted slightly.
I can't go bra-less for one I'm a 38D and for second my nips just feel chaffed after awhile.
And finally I especially like my breasts since I have add some bling to them, tho I swear its like a lure to a fish with my fiance.

Also, Victoria Secret bras just don't seem to fit me right. But I do love me some Frederick's of Hollywood the extreme cleavage collection.

I have to disagree that breasts that are very small don't sag. I have seen it and don't think it's as bad as with larger breasts, but no-one wants their breasts to sag really. Just thought I'd share that.

Also, I was wondering, after reading mixedmedia's post mentioning the documentary on guy's cocks, whether there has been a similar thread for the guys, here on TFP? I am a little curious. If anyone remembers would be interesting, if not we could open one.

Some words of, uh, support from one of our male TFP'ers:

Quote:
There are some men, (me especially) that thinks that sagging breasts are sexy! My current gf is 50, and while small breasted, hers don't sag especially much, just a little, but it truly turns me on. Other women that I've been with have sagged more, and I think it's a real thrill to see. Just my two cents.
Ain't that nice?

So I posted earlier that I am very fond of my breasts. Then I got my nipples pierced this week, and now I love them!

Though I do kind of wish they would fill out a a B cup better. They're on the small side but I don't worry about it except when I'm looking for bras, then it's annoying.

And I definitely agree on the proportions thing, my breasts are fitting for my body size so it works out okay.

I like my breasts very much, I'm 6 feet tall and my C cups fit my general stature nicely, they make my clothes fit better too. They aren't too saggy even though I'm nearly 60. Ain't nobody putting rings in the nipples though! I guess I'm just too damn old to appreciate the piercing business.

I wish there were clothing manufacturers who specialized in small-waist/bottom, larger-breast styles, because that is what I need. So yes, I have to take my breasts into account when picking almost every outfit... not because I want to show them off (though my husband always appreciates when I do), but because I have to make sure they are going to fit decently and the buttons aren't going to pop off... which has happened before.
I’m in the same boat, abaya. I rarely buy dresses. Even with alterations, most just won’t fit. No one designs for those of us that have large boobs and not much of a butt. Especially if we're also short. There just aren't very many of us. Most women tend to have the opposite problem. I go with separates (or a business suit,) so I can buy to accommodate my chest, (size 8-10) and choose smaller (size 4) pants or skirt. I’m sitting here writing this wearing a men's XL Red Sox sweatshirt, (been chilly all day) a 32DD bra, and a pair of BOYS size 14 Levis. It's been years since I bought an actual dress.

How I feel about my breasts has changed over the years. They've always been a big part of my life, (I try, like Dolly Parton, to keep a sense of humor) but now, at age 31, frankly, I’m ambivalent. I tend to vacillate between smugness (like I know what I've got) and a kind of embarrassment at my good fortune, and it kept me from weighing in on this thread earlier. I have exactly what a lot of men want. And I almost think I should apologize for that?? I can stand naked in front of the mirror, and my figure looks --to me-- "unbalanced" because I have large breasts, and everything else is small. Small face, small mouth, narrow shoulders, narrow waist, small butt, small feet! Besides that, I'm short! I’ve been accused of having implants and of being anorexic. Not true! I am lean, not “skinny.” I eat pretty much whatever I want – but most of the time I don’t want much. I just won the genetic lottery, that’s all! What I have (great boobs) I have through absolutely no effort on my part. I'm grateful -- I think. They just sort of . . . appeared. And they still look pretty much like they did when I was seventeen. I certainly would NOT want them to be any bigger.

They’ve always been a magnet for attention, especially when they first “blossomed” when I was about fifteen. Nothing to C-cup in about 3 months, and it didn’t stop there. I have to admit that I just loved the attention! Some of the other girls said I was a slut, and guess what? That just gave me more attention from the boys! I then proceeded to earn the reputation that I had. After a failed marriage and a divorce, I discovered in my mid twenties that I could make a lot of money shaking my titties! I won an “amateur nite” wet tee-shirt contest and by the next night --- I was no longer an amateur! They called me an exotic dancer. A fancy name for stripper. And the money was almost all CASH under the table (or under the G-string.) A girl with my body could always get on the schedule at the busiest times -- best for good tips.

But I didn't like that life. I loved the actual dancing, but the drinking, the drugs, the drama queens, the hanger-on pimps. The being constantly “hit on” that just goes with that territory. The aging girls who said that they would KILL to have my body. I think a couple of them really meant it! Sigh! I hated that. Talk about hostile work environment!
Personality wise, I’m really just basically a nerd. A pragmatic and sometimes opportunistic nerd. An intellectual, introverted INTP nerd with a pornstar’s body. I'm even somewhat religious, though not in any proselytizing kind of way. There must be some kind of injustice here. Maybe I should sue. Just kidding. But I've wondered more than once if this body wasn't wasted on someone with my temperament. I danced for nearly two years, then took the shoeboxes full of cash, and ran. Ran away to graduate school. So, my boobs (and a scholarship) paid for grad school at an expensive university. And that’s OK with me.
Anyway, having large breasts does affect the way I dress and the way I shop for clothes. At work (I manage an investment fund) I dress conservatively, wear little or no makeup, and strive more for elegant than stylish or fashionable. I’m so short (5’ 2”) that broad padded shoulders make me look silly, but a “draping” effect over my breasts doesn’t attract too much attention. Dark jacket. Boatneck tops. Dressy pants. Fairly short skirts. If I can draw eyes to my legs, my breasts will be less noticed. Maybe. But a breast man will take notice no matter what you do. Trust me on this.
Casual dress for me is usually jeans (yes, sometimes I do wear boys size 12 or 14 jeans) or shorts.. With some kind of top. Tee-shirt, Western shirt, sweater, sweatshirt. Not too tight, but I do like the drape on the shelf effect. There’s that word “drape” again. It’s kind of a proud but not flaunting idea. Showing cleavage also helps keep me cooler and more comfortable in hot weather. I'll wear a tank top if I have to be outside and it's really hot. I hardly ever wear a dress except at work or church. Uh-oh. Sorry for going on way too long.
I started this on Saturday, and just couldn't finish. Better get it posted, warts and all. Looks like this thread is already starting to fade. Before I forget, I want to plug a great book.
If anyone is a reader, and interested in this subject, (breasts) I highly recommend Stacked: A 32DDD Reports from the Front by Susan Seligson. From Amazon, and the other usual places.

Thanks, TFP, for being here. I needed to get that off my chest. Groan.
