I have small breasts, yadda-yadda...

I have small B's. And no, my frame is not small, I'm not skinny or athletic. I'm a freakin' pear shape. And yes, some guys say that smaller is better, but I don't buy that for a second. Why is TV plastered with huge boobs then? What about Playboy, Penthouse, and well, most porn? Strippers? Argh! I know I should feel beautiful and confident and all that, but it's so hard when everything I see are big breasts being adored. people always tell me well look at small chested celebs like Keira Knightley, etc., well they're gorgeous and very skinny, they suit them, not me, I'm very curvy in my lower body, and look disproportionate up top. My boyfriend loves me, but all his celebrity crushes have big breasts. Also the porn he watches, big breasts. He says he likes mine, but he prefers bigger ones, but that he loves me and he's not perfect either so I shouldn't fret. But I do, regardless! Anyway, it's not enough to hear just a handful of guys say that small breasts rock, because usually they also like AA or A's, not B's. Then are the guys that like big ones. Ugh. What can I do? I feel so ugly, I never see my body type being glorified and feel hideous, I want to cry! It's always the uber skinny type or the busty ones.

I don't want your sympathy either. Don't just tell me that my boobs are fine so I'll shut up and feel better. I want the truth, I want facts, as much as it may hurt. Why are big breasts so adored, everywhere, and not small ones?

  • Wow, learn to love your small breasts. My friends who are big breasted have so many back issues and some of my friends cry over it. Men aren't thinking about the physical pain a female can go through with big breasts. Men aren't compassionate beings as much as females are. And those stupid celebrities are fake who were created by the media. Those celebrities are probably 90% plastic who do crash diets, some have eating disorders, most have personal trainers up their butts 24/7. So if men think those girls are attractive who have big breasts and everything synthetic then I guess most men adore the dangerous near fatal sad life of a celebrity. So yeah I don't know why guys like big breasts but what I can say is that the media brain washes a lot of people and guys are more suseptible to it since guys are naturally attracted to women. If we didn't have so much bad shit we have today men would be completely different. Men were kind of made to follow women and their beliefs so when women stop acting like sluts and trying to make their bodies fake then men will adjust to women just being simply natural and beautiful. Women have to make the change really. So yeah I guess I gave you a couple of reasons why.even though it is really sad. I have small boobs and I love them and no one can change that about me. You need to love your breasts and get rid of those who tell you differently. Fill your life with positive people and for goodheavens sakes get rid of that boyfriend. He watches porn when he's with you and he tells you he prefers big breasts? ok he's being honest but he's a dirt bag who doesn't respect you. Love yourself and be with someone who will love you just as you are. You don't need to be with someone who makes you second guess your body. I honestly don't know why men are attracted to sacks of fat but once I can figure out the mind of a man 100% I would be rich as hell and Id let every girl know. So I'm as lost as you are but I do have some ideas.

    • I forgot to mention that some women have large breasts naturally...but they don't look nearly as fake breasts at all. Fake breasts are round, shiny, and plastic looking. So yeah. I have nothing against big breasts.

    • And ANOTHER comment. I wouldn't be with someone who is shallow. Those type of men are completely shitty.

    • I agree, I have nothing against big breasts. Quite the contrary, I'd like a pair of my own. Not fake ones though.

  • I don't find that big breasts are adored, honestly, I get a lot of trouble from having DDD/E sized breasts. its been said before, the breasts in porn and attached to celebrities are synthetic, and when growing up as a teenager, exploring their sexuality through porn, they're only exposed to a certain style of body, which gives them unrealistic expectations.

    I guess I'm like you but backwards, I don't have very wide hips or an ass to match my breasts, I look top heavy, and its awfully painful.

    I would kill for small breasts, if it worked like that.

    I hate that men stare at my breasts instead of my face, I guess it happens regardless of the size, but my are abnormally large for my body type so I guess its kind of a novelty.

    Also, I have to add models hardly ever have big breasts, characters in television shows generally don't have large breasts, and if they do they're a slut.

    Large Breasts means sex, which creates a kind of demeaning picture of women.

    I'm not going to tell you to be thankful for what you've got, because it sucks, but you and I are seeing two different stories, I'm seeing the negatives to large breasts and you're seeing the so called "positives".

    You know, I bet the models and playboy and stuff don't get to enjoy good food because they ahve to starve themselves, they're never going to live a real life, have people admire them for their intelligence or charm, they aren't going to be able to have people like them because of their personality.

    oh and by the way, its been proven that men are more attracted to women with large hips because of their child bearing qualities, keep that in mind.

    • We are not all attracted to big hips, or big boobs either. My preference is for small in both of these. And by the way, isn't it lucky that we don't all like the same thing. If we did, the shortages would be overwhelming. Infact anyone with just a bit of wisdom would accept their partner regaurdless of appearance. My motherinlaw used to have a plaque on the kitchen wall "Lookin don't last, cookin do" I agree with this and its other implications. There are far more important characteristics.

    • "I guess it happens regardless of the size" No, I'm never looked at like that. My firnds with bigger breasts are though. They always get attention, even if they have small hips. I've got big hips and a small waist, but no looks, I'm never checked out, no matter if I wear "sexy" clothes or not. Guess like dave said above, life happens =/

    • I didn't say all men, but by nature a lot are attracted to large hips, I'm not even suggesting that looks are all that men care about either, and I agree, men aren't all attracted to big breasts, each to their own, sometimes humans are just shallow, I think as you age the attitude that men have towards your body will change as they mature.

  • hmm I don't know the answer to your question.but I do know a lot of guys who prefer smaller breasts, so I wouldn't feel too bad.

    I'm a size A and yeah I used to feel pretty crappy because of it but.the guy I'm dating right now says he loves them the way they are, and it just doesn't seem to bother me anymore.

    I think our culture has just been affected by so many advertisements with big breasted girls that it is now seen as sexier to have a bigger bust.

    All I know is everyone has different preferences and you shouldn't let those magazines get you down. One of the biggest problems with our culture is how much advertisements etc. try to influence us (in everything, not just looks), and it's scary how much they succeed.

    I think what your really crying over is your perfect version of how you think you should look, not what your boyfriend wants. If he really loves you (which I gather he does), he doesn't love you anymore because your beautiful. Your beautiful because he loves you.

    So I hope eventually you can learn to love yourself, just like he loves you.

    The extra confidence this gives you should make you even more irresistible to him =)

    hope that helped

  • I used to work in an upscale gentlemen's club (AS A WAITRESS) and there were girls there that would sometimes make more money than the big breasted girls and lots of guys liked them too and I'm not just saying that I've seen it. One man asked me "Can you find a Russian girl to sit with me-but I don't want any huge floppy breasts" I told this small chested girl to go sit with him and now he always requests her when he comes in. Really-some men do perfer it.

    As for playboy: there are small chested women in playboy now. Have you seen the girls next door? Well the twins on the one episode had small breasts, but they were still popular.

    J Lo. has small ones and a curvy bottom(like you) and lots of men like her.

    Look-your boyfriend loves you for who you are, maybe it's a good thing you've got small ones because you know he's not just with you because of your boobs. However, if you keep complaining about this to him he may think your right and have no confidence so stop. Don't compare yourself to other people-especially not pornstars and strippers lol it's not healthy

  • Well I am kinda short and that sucks sometimes some girls will just ignore me or write me off for it. But you can't let that get to you. I am not proud of the amount of knowledge I have of p*rn stars and strippers, but honestly there are whole p*rn websites dedicated to girls with small boobs. Liking women with big figures isn't rare but it seems like its actually the minority, look at all those skinny little celebrities. Last but not least you said you are curvy in your lower body, well I'm a booty man anyway, most men in the world are. Also don't ignore the value of taking care of your hair and having a big smile and knowing to yourself you are beautiful. I am sure there are plenty of men that find you attractive, and unless you want to become a p*rn star or stripper yourself you are not trying to catch the attention of all guys, hopefully just one at a time. When you have a boyfriend maybe you will worry he finds some other women, more beautiful more sexy or whatever, well don't think about that he's with you. And guys worry all the time about whether their girlfriend or wife thinks about other men the answer is yes and so what.

  • Please God, grant her the serenity to accept the things she cannot change; the courage to change the things she can; and the wisdom to know the difference.

    • It's easy to say this... but it's hard you know? I wish I could just get over it, but it's hard if everyday I see at least one giant pair of breasts on a billboard.

    • Every day I also see those big chested girls in the beer comercials, and they are chatting with with well built 25 year old guys with full heads of hair and not a grey in sight. Well you know what, life happens. You can either accept it and suck every bit of enjoyment possible from it, or you can lay around and bitch about how bad things are. Some good advice: Get busy living or get busy dieing, but get busy.

    • But there still doesn't seem to be as much pressure to look good for guys as there is to women. Guys have other kinds of pressure, like bank accounts. Oh well... guess I'll just ahve to shut up and get busy living. Sure other qualities are more important, I agree whole heartedly, and I do emphasize my talents, kindness, wit and such. But EVERY woman also wants to feel sexy and beautiful in her own body too, and currently, I don't.

  • Hey sweetie, I think we all hate certain stuff about our bodies. We just can't match up to the girls on TV & in magazines. And it hurts not to feel as beautiful as we want, it just does.

    If you wanna know why guys are like this, I think it's kind of a mystery. There are some theories that big breasts are an indicator of fertility or that the extra fat means the girl's more likely to survive with her child. I also heard this theory that, back as we evolved (and before women really had a choice in whom they slept with), the men who went for breasts were the ones who were differentiating between women and children, which is a good thing.

    My personal theory: breasts *are* sexual, and a sign of womanhood. And humans (especially men) just tend to get fixated on the biggest and best, even if bigger isn't inherently better. Women can get the same way about penis size: bigger doesn't necessarily feel better, but it can still be more exciting.

    I don't know what you should do. I'd say you should think about implants. I mean, none of us are perfect: why shouldn't we make ourselves better? And, you know, work on your body or your body image too. There are therapists, workshops, books, etc. that might help you be happier with what you have.

    But I still say get the implants. It seems like it'd make both you and your boyfriend happier. You can always get them out if you change your mind. I think they've become pretty good at keeping the sensation and the ducts you need for breastfeeding.

    • And risk my life in the process? I know not all women with implants have problems, but I'm a chicken and have never ever had surgery of any kind (not even because of my appendix or tonsils). Surgery is just not an option for me. BTW, it's said guys like natural better. So I think I'd still be jealous of natural girls whose boobs bounce, instead of having two lifeless saline sacks sewn to my chest.

    • Oh, and just to add... I've never thought big penises are more exciting. I think this is just a stupid myth that men and women are conditioned to believe. Too much porn in their heads... there's a reason why the vagina has an average lenght too. Huge penises never go the whole way into the vagina, so I think it's pointless.

  • guys, from a lot of what I've heard, are ok with just a handful. there's also usually 5 types of guys:

    1.guys who look at butts

    2.guys who look at boobs

    3.guys who look at faces

    4.guys who look at legs

    5.guys who look at stomachs

    however, these guys don't always go for the girls that make the most sense with what they like, that's why your boyfriend doesn't mind your breast size. he's most likely a boob guy who thought you were really pretty. be glad for that. =)

    really, though. my guy friends tell me all the time, sure big boobs are great, but a handful is really nice, no matter what shape the girl is.

  • I have a friend who just had a boob job, she got her's enlarged from an A to a B. She's an exotic dancer (she hates the term stripped) and she reckons since she did that her requests have more than doubled. We were discussing boobs with her co-workers the other day and I asked her why she didn't go a bit bigger, especially considering her chosen career and all. She and her co-worker replied simultaneously "Any more than a handful's a waste." Big boobs are fine to look at but what service do they perform? And when you're getting down and dirty they tend to get in the way and get squashed and get hurt. I don' tknow why bug breasts are adored, I guess because they portray an image. when you look at big boobs you think of sex. When you look at smaller boobs, you don't necessarily think of sex. My question to you is, if you've already got yourself a wonderful man who loves you as you are, which it sounds like you do, who cares what the rest of the world likes?

    • But he also likes big ones =/ He loves me, yes, for other qualities, and of course that's important too. But I just want to feel like the sexiest woman in his eyes, and I can't, especially since he has friends with bigger breasts than mine, and I'm sure he checks those out when they're hanging out (not the breasts, lol). I feel a bit inadequate, that's all. And every other guy I've dated, same thing. Never been with a small boob lover (since they see, to like small frames, which I don't have)

  • I love breasts. The sad thing is many celebs and pornstars get fake breasts which is a huge turn off. I don't want to hump a plastic barbie doll, I want a woman. Any size natural breasts are superior to huge plastic domes. BTW I love small breasts, but I love a girl's face and personality a lot more. If a girl had a cute face, great personality, and huge boobs, I would like her...if a girl had a cute face, great personality, and small boobs, I would like her...end of discussion.

  • I think your hostility is the bigger problem.
