flat chested female athletes

I guess you have good personal practical evidence for that. Or is it mostly stuff you have learned from a text book?

I think you missed your moment for higher achievement by unfortunate circumstances, or for other reasons. That is from what you have said, and I hesitate to make such an assumption because I am pretty sure you will make an idiot of me.

What do you have against textbooks? Don’t knock it till you try it.

No one is trying to do that. We are disagreeing with your premise that large breasted women cannot compete with small breasted women. They can, and do. I could, and I did. The slim figured women you see competing at Olympic levels have low body fat as a result of heavy exercise, AND their breasts appear smaller due to compression garments. If the entire Olympic women’s track team stopped training, you would find that their bodies would tend to resemble the rest of the non Olympic population. That is: some would have average figures, some slim, and a few would have large breasts.

Mannequin boobies are hard plastic, not deformable soft tissue.

C-cup is not “flat-chested”.

Yes, I took that into account. I knew I should not have brought that one up. (sorry , a person with a sense of humour could get a lot of one liners from this thread).

By that I mean I understand where you are coming from, but not where you are going.

I started this thread with some provocative and observational statements.
It was not meant to be taken quite so literally science wise, but accepted none the less. The trouble with science is it sometimes lags behind the obvious.( I guess for good reason)

In the same way I think I can draw a pretty accurate idea of what continent you come from by the way you spell “realize, realise” etc. Does that make me ignorant?

It is easy to be blinded or dumbed by maths.

I think also it reasonable to put

Where does my daughter get one of these compression garments?

In that case cane you judge?

No it is not. So what is your definition?

You mean have I figured out if you’re a computer yet? I’m leaning towards yes. You haven’t posted to any other threads, but you seem unwilling to let this die, even though it’s not going anywhere. Your grammar is atrocious (actually, maybe that’s evidence you’re *not *a computer). You keep saying nonsensical things and then saying that’s not what you meant, but not trying to restate what you meant. I have rarely seen such a mess of a thread, which is why I’ve stopped posting in it.

Best I can decipher it, your “observation” is that large breasted women aren’t Olympic level runners anymore, except when they are.

Um…okay? So what’s your point?

You don’t think I know that! If you think I have not taken that into consideration, you are very limited in your thinking!

If you want to engage in a discussion you need to state your position clearly and concisely. You’re now just dodging and using obfuscation. Your debating style is quickly turning counter-productive.

I won’t waste much time on you since you have made up your mind that I am a complete waste of space, and that I am a computer and you so incorrectly state that I have not replied to any threads but I have. If I missed you deliver it again.

I am sorry you think that. I am not dodging anyone and least of all you. It may seem that way but I assure you it is not.

Um, you are the one that posted

A C-cup registers on the boob scale. Even a B-cup registers for some of us. Hell, I like a good AA-chest. I think a general consensus of “flat-chested” is going to draw a line somewhere along a B-cup.

And yet you posted that you have experience putting bras on mannequins and that is how you know bras cannot compress boobs. :rolleyes: And you say at first that Olympic atheletes “will not register on the boob scale”, but then later say they might be C-cups. :rolleyes: So yes, I think you don’t know that, or at least failed to take it into consideration when you spouted off.

Turning counter productive? I thought it started that way.

It is amazing how a statement, can be distorted, maninuplated and made to assume what the beholder desires.

Not true. See: “Little Girls in Pretty Boxes: The Making and Breaking of Elite Gymnasts and Figure Skaters” by Sportswriter J. Ryan.

Can you be more specific about what specific claim is not true?

She said you had not replied to any other threads. And a search for posts by rustyrunner says she is correct.
