Well, sadly the soccer issue is moot, until someone comes up with a really, really good ankle replacement. But even for biking - well, I’ve tried every sports bra on the market here, and they are all so hideously uncomfortable that I fail to see the point. I’m not going to spend my hard-earned cash for what amounts to a torture device; I don’t swing that way (no pun intended).
Do you gentlemen have that much time on your hands or are the mathematics of the bounce to the ounce actually something that you consider on a regular basis?
Not criticizing, just curious. Women are so different. We don’t watch guys walking down the street looking for trouser jiggles. 
Mine don’t jiggle at all when I walk and I’m a 38D! I really don’t think size is the only determinant of jiggle factor. Perhaps my mannish (and sometimes ducklike) gait is to blame for the non-bounciness? Many parts of my body jiggle when I stroll, but alas, my breasts are not two of them.
Oh, sports. Don’t get me started. Running will get more bounce going than the underside of my face can deal with! It hurts! Once you get to a D-cup, yeah, sports bras are not so comfy. I compromise. I have a very basic (cheap) sports bra which gives incomplete support but does give some and doesn’t hurt like the others. Then I just try not to bounce.
This is why I play ice hockey instead of soccer.
Ruby: Like I said, men are basic!!!
Morrigoon : Sports bras are worthless. I get better support during exercise from my normal bras.
Eva Luna : Sorry about the ankle, hun. Heal quickly!
Double D here as well. I can control mine to suit my needs (snicker). I have, of course, modified my walk to either get a playful, purposeful bounce going, and finally I am having a hard time finding a good sports bra and ready to give up jogging alltogether.
Help. 
It’s all about priorities. Boobs are very high on the list.

You guys have a lot of time on your hands…

Love the pun.
Well, safe to say, I have no shortage of cleavage, and I found that of all things, Marks and Spencers’ high impact sports bra worked wonders. And its even got what amounts to padding on the front as protection.
I think… Sorry, what was the question again?
I also have huge… tracts of land. A few notes in no particular order:
Sports bras are my friend and not a torture device, so obviously this varies from woman to woman, but even with one on I do bounce substantially when I jog. The sports bra just limits the movement, I don’t want or need one that locks those puppies down. I prefer some natural movement, not for allurement but just because otherwise it feels constricted and icky. The only time I feel pain when jogging is around my period when they’re abnormally tender anyway.
I bounce when I walk normally because in spite of the size I am not going to submit my breasts to the indignity and pain of underwire. Screw that. I use softcup bras, which are much less supportive and basically just keep them more or less where they’re supposed to be for fashion purposes.
The worst sports bra issue I have is yoga… a lot of those positions are not designed for women with large bosom-shelves such as a sports bra gives me, and so I end up with a, uh, faceful. Good grief. I would love to see this problem engineered around.
I don’t go around planning how the physics of breasts and undergarments is going to affect their motion, all I ask for is a bra that is comfortable and provides decent support. If people are observing the bounce and attempting to measure its frequency and distance, good for them, but it’s not my problem.
Considering the hard time I have finding a non-underwire bra (and non-padded-to-look-bigger!) in an A cup, I’m impressed that you can at all, Idlewild. Heck, these days I barely need a bra, let alone underwire. And the whole point of the surgery was to make them smaller so why the hell would I want a bra to make them look bigger???
During the summer around here a lot of women who probably should wear a bra don’t. Gravity does do things to you eventually…but if it’s hot and humid enough, I can see why they do it. They probably don’t wear them the rest of the year, either, but with the way people bundle up when it gets below about 60F, it’s harder to tell.
Thanks, but it’s been more than 7 years, and I’m as healed as medical science knows how to get me at the moment. It’s a long story involving a metal plate, screws, rods, four surgeries, and a lot of rehab. I walk OK now, but high-impact sports are pretty much out of the question.
(On the bright side, few things are more odd than having your doc come at you with a wrench every couple of weeks. I used to joke with my boyfriend at the time that I was off for my regular screwing by the nice Jewish doctor.)
So the next time I’m in London, perhaps a girlie shopping trip is in order? No Marks and Spencer here, unfortunately.
We’re like T-rexes… we can’t see 'em if they don’t move.
I’m more of an ass man myself.
**SPOOFE ** they have to be moving for you to see them! You would notice them moving, staying still, etc.
<sigh>
MMMMmmmm-mmmmmmm…booooo-ooobies…
<sigh>
Whiterabbit, if you don’t mind my asking, why did you have them reduced down to an A? I have an ex who is considering the surgery, but she is currently an L (yes they are absolutely unbelievable) an wouldn’t go smaller than a C. Of the other women I know who have done or are thinking about it they all say the same thing.
As far as bounciness is concerned, I have said for years that “jiggle and bounce” are my two favorite words in the english language. I would sit in engineering classes wondering what the frequency response function for a C cup would look like. This is something that video game designers should think about, because they all end up looking like implants in the games (no or very odd movement). Hmmm, this could be a career change, must testing would have to be done.
:eek:
Nvme77 try Title 9 Sports. They seem to have a really good selection of sports/workout bras for us chesty girls. 
And they are not those kind that give you the uniboob look. I hate those kind of sports bras They also have a satisfaction guarentee you should check them out.
As long as I’m in charge of dictating fashions (which, I own, is never ), bouncing breasts will **always ** be in style.
Ten-on-the-Richter scale, black-out-the-eyes type bouncing is not necessary, nor particularly desirable. A nice, gentle, jiggle will do just fine for me.
