man, 50%? I feel less masculine

Don't be so hard on yourself, the quiz means nothing. As long as you can undo the damn thing in a timely manner that's all that counts!!

[iluvgeddy05]

55% . Huh..

 

 

Well, the one question where to measure for your band size? Two answers could apply. It's around your upper chest (above the breasts) and under the armpits OR under the breasts + 5 inches.

 

 

I also appreciated the question "Anything bigger than a D is most likely fake." Not so much, says the former all natural DDD girl here

 

So glad I got rid of those...

I really think you might be on to something there, man!

It's kind of fascinating that boobs have become such a sign of female desirability and sexuality. Really, think about it. Their real function is to feed babies - not sexy at all. And after all, they're really just globs of fat mostly. Unless they're fakes, in which case they're silicone meant to give the impression that they're globs of fat in the form of breasts. Of course I also think vaginas are ugly.

man are you a party pooper.

But then perhaps as time goes by and one engages her in conversation and gets to know her more, suddenly she becomes very "attractive" as her winning personality begins to shine through. She goes from "didn't really notice" to: "hell, damned attractive".   I hope this makes sense. DPR is quite drunk atm.

Actually, this is one of the "myths" that the Lady in question is trying hard to stomp.

 

The add +5 inches stuff was developed by this one company way back in the 1930's, when bras were made out of non-stretchable, much more course material. It is no longer accurate for today's bras (assuming it ever was, which is doubtful)

 

Nowadays, the correct band width is EXACTLY your measurements around your rib cage directly underneath your breasts. That gives a reading in inches which is supposed to be your correct band size.

 

Thus, her claim that most women today wear a bra which is too big in the band, and to small in the cup, when they should be using a smaller band width and a bigger cup bra. Say, for example, a 30D instead of a 34B.

100% of women who want breast reductions were using the wrong bra size, one that did not properly support the weight of their breasts.

 

Just so you know. At least, that is according to the Lady who wrote all this stuff. Supposedly, some survey of such women concluded that 100% of them (yes, that is right, each and every one of them) were using bras which were too wide in the band width, and not big enough in the cup, the end effect of which was to make too much of the weight concentrate on the shoulders, neck and back, instead of being carried mostly by the band which is what a bra is supposed to do.
