[QUOTE=gaffa] Probably very true. My mother and older sister treated themselves to a girls day out and visited Victoria’s Secret. The sales woman sized them both, and Mom said that she came home with the first truly comfortable bra she’d ever worn. And this was a woman in her 60s. [/QUOTE] I’m both pleased and surprised she got properly fitted at V.S. Generally I’ve found their staff to be shockingly ignorant and too eager to push the item of the week instead of finding the right bra for an individual. I usually recommend Nordstrom to people without a corsetier in their neighborhood - Nordstrom even carries custom made bras, made to your exact measure, which is great for post mastectomy or very uneven women (I’ve got one friend with a two cup size difference 'tween the sisters.) To do that, they have to train their people well. Even better, they’re not really pushy, so you can go and get a proper measurement and then get your bras somewhere cheaper. ---

I also strongly recommend Nordstrom. I was very shocked to find out my real bra size (just last week). ---

[QUOTE=Peak Banana] Thank you. Also, for the record, 10 year old boys who resemble adult women do nothing whatsoever for me. Just so that we’re clear on _that_. [/QUOTE] Best Save ever! ---

[QUOTE=Peak Banana] I cannot \*believe \*her Wikipedia page doesn’t have such crucial info. [/QUOTE] [Chickipedia](http://www.chickipedia.com/Ellen_Page) does though! Hrm. Upon edit, I see I’m late to the party. ---

[QUOTE=chowder] I don’t really care what size but I’ll tell you this, she was bloody magnificent in _Hard Candy_ [/QUOTE] An excellent film. Even if you have to watch it with both hands firmly protecting your package at all times. Any male who watches it without screaming in horror when the garbage disposal is turned on, isn’t human. ---

You guys know there are bras that can make women with A-cups look like C-cups right? with push-up and those silicone inserts and such? Unless you are seeing them bare, you can’t really judge. ---

[QUOTE=Fiver] What s/he admitted was that s/he is sexually aroused by _adult women_ who **resemble** 10-year-old boys. The two are very different. [/QUOTE] FWIW, I find Ms Page really attractive because a) she has great eyes and a dazzling smile, and b) specifically _because_ she’s so petite (and I vehemently dispute the “ten year old boy” characterization) – I’m not a very tall guy (5’7"), so I find a woman shorter than me very feminine and attractive. I’m sure you tall men (or tall ladies) can figure that out – some of you may not prefer tall women but rather someone more petite (which is obviously a relative scale, which is precisely my point). I also find Asian women attractive for similar reasons but also in other ways. (Now go figure why I married a woman who is 5’ 9" barefoot.) I’ll admit I did check her age when I first saw Ms Page so I wouldn’t feel too skeeved out about my taking notice of her; she was 19 then, phew. Although you can throw skeevery my direction if you like, since that makes me over a decade older than her. ---

There were long standing rumors that Alicia Keys was a lesbian also. They were based on some specious logic - she’s an attractive young woman and she didn’t have a public boyfriend. So gossipers assumed she must be hiding a secret female lover. As it turned out, Keys was in a long-term relationship with a man that pre-dated her becoming a celbrity. He didn’t want to be a public figure so she just refused to discuss the subject when interviewers asked her about her personal relationships. ---
