Larger breasts with brava

Can I just add that having big boobs "aint all that" as my teenage step daughter would say.
I'd love to have smaller boobs. I can't ever go bra-less 'cos it's uncomfortable, but wearing a bra puts a strain on my shoulders which is uncomfortable too. I wore a halter neck tankini on my holidays and it put a great deal of strain on my neck.
And big boobs tend to "go south"sooner than their perkier neighbours. I'd look ridiculous if I wore a polo neck, clothes that fit round my chest are too big round my waist and vice versa. BTW I'm only talking 38DD, not that far out of the ordinary.
I'd love to be able to go jogging, but without an expensive sports bra I'd either put my eye out or trip myself up.
You cannot live as I have lived an not end up like me.
Oi you lot - pleaseGIVE BLOOD

Yeah but I bet you looked gorgeous in that tankini, women tend to suffer for beauty. I guess I have to admit mine are still perky thats cos they don't stick out far enough to droop!!! Maybe my need to look more womany is just a mid-life crisis cos my friend (38) just got her belly button pierced!! We are obviously trying to recapture our youth.Veni, vidi, vino = I came, I saw, I drank wine

The point I hoped readers would note from the links I posted initially was that 60% of the female population have breast cups of A or B. This is what is NORMAL, C cup applies to some 28% only and anything large is decidedly abnormal.
I find it strange that people want to be abnormal rather than a healthy natural normal size.
But as you see from Young women unhappy with looks it applies to lots of young women.
PS In the light of Justie's comment I'm not sure that saying women with average sized breasts are common is particularly flattering either.
The point I was trying to get across is that there really shouldn't be any pressure on women to lead them to feel the need to increase breast size. Rather than publishing photo's of women with extremely uncommon size breasts the media should be portraying women as they naturally are, instead of continually pushing forward as ideal, examples that are neither healthy nor for most, achievable without surgical intervention.My weight loss following Doktor Dahlqvist' Dietary Program

Don't confuse the poor man or he'll be telling us next that Vitamin D determines the size of breasts! And here is "TED's LOGIC" to prove this:
Here we have a PUBMED article which states that increased breast size results in more cancers:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=pubmed&dopt=Abstract&list_uids=16284954
Ted has often linked to PUBMED articles that says decreased Vitamin D causes Breast Cancer! Conclusion: Decreased Vitamin D results in bigger breasts!
And here is further proof: According to Ted, dark skinned people have the lowest Vitamin D levels, so according to "Ted's logic" dark-skinned women should have the biggest breasts! Well, it seems that dark-skinned people do have the biggest breasts:

Maybe your Vitamin D theories are right after all Ted!0 -

Ok - point taken - but she does appear in the Guinness Book of Records and she (and her daughter) were topless on British TV - without any warning!0 -

Those with a low vitamin d status have a higher risk of breast cancer (as much as 50% higher than those with the highest status.0
However vitamin d status is only one of the risk factors for BC Others that can be modified are
what you eat,
how much you weigh, and maintaining a healthy weight,
how much you exercise,
whether you smoke,
whether you drink alcohol and if so, how much and how frequently,
the types of chemicals in your environment,
whether you took hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for menopausal symptoms for five years or longer
In the same way that having a higher vitamin d status doesn't alter whether or not you smoke or exercise or what you eat, or the chemicals in your environment it also doesn't alter your breast size either.
It is Paul's logic that is confused not mine.
Even if you worked on lowering each of these risk factors there would still be genetic factors which you cannot modify, so there is no hope we will eliminate the problem but we must try to stop the increase in incidence.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer said 1,900 more deaths from breast cancer were recorded last year than the total of 130,000 recorded for 2004. Breast cancer deaths continued to rise in spite of the screening programmes, which were thought to be behind the 16% increase in new diagnoses compared with 2004, the report said.
The World Health Organisation's Cancer Research Agency estimates that last year almost 3.2 million cases of cancer, excluding non-melanoma skin cancer, were diagnosed in the whole of Europe, whereas in 2004 the number was 2.9 million.And here is further proof: According to Ted, dark skinned people have the lowest Vitamin D levels
But that has no relation to breast size.
Skin colour affects your ability to synthesise vitamin d.
If I thought that Vitamin D 3 increased breast size I would jolly well have said so before now as I'm sure that would improve consumption enormously but I'm afraid there is no justification at all for that kind of illogical thinking.My weight loss following Doktor Dahlqvist' Dietary Program
