Nerdessence, my attempt at humour seems to have been a tragic failure.

FTR I love small boobs- not that I am averse to female boobs of any size. I do find the obvious surgically enlarged variety a bit hard to swallow.

I have given you a warning for personal insults for this post. It’s way out of line for a response in MPSIMS.

But it’s perfectly ok for him to come in and not only threadshit, but at some level insult as well?

I tried to interpret it as a lame joke, but the underlying attitude/bias needed to be brought to his attention.

My first warning, so be it.

I’m sure he still has no idea.

My own, erm, “research” confirms that. I keep my still-photo collection — photos collected primarily from “free sample” pages and other sources where I don’t know the names of the models — sorted by hair color. Even with separating black, Asian, and Latina models into their own categories, my “Brunettes” folder has always been much larger than my “Blondes” folder.

Well, you are correct as in I have no idea what has upset you to such a degree. Nevertheless, as this is now the subject of Moderator action I won’t be participating any longer.

The most attractive thing about breasts is how the person likes them. So if you have “great” breasts but they don’t do anything for you as far as stimulation goes, they aren’t so great in my estimation.

But if your breasts are a source of pleasure, and happiness, then I will love them too. Enjoy!

BTW, I would consider myself a boob man, and an ass man, and a leg man, and a …

I have a screensaver of Jamie Lee Curtis in a see-thru top, she complained hers’ were “too large”.

My buddy talked to her once.

I love women but I really prefer the smaller breasts and if they ain’t small they gotta at least be natural…picky eh? 🙂

Being flat-chested (as I am - in a tight sports bra I am flatter than most men) is definitely superior in every sense except the aesthetic/ideal. I can’t deny that boobs look great - but I certainly wouldn’t want to deal on a daily basis with all the people who like to look at great boobs.

You would have been my ideal, I love flat chests on women.

I am not a woman, and as I’m married I shan’t flirt. I shall simply inform inform the OP and any other small-bosomed lovelies about that I find small bosoms quite attractive, and much more so than the really bigguns.

> Just look in any swimwear or fashion article. Small bustlines are often spoken of as something that needs to be hidden, not accentuated. The goal is always to make the woman appear to have _larger_ breasts, not showing off the neat, trim lines such a bustline creates. I resent that, since inevitably, if a woman has larger breasts, their section of the article is about showing them off in a tasteful way. Why can’t I show mine off? Why am I asked to add ruffles and frills to give the illusion of a larger size? Why am I asked to wear a padded bra? Why is there always a note of sympathy involved? It’s insulting.

I’m sure I’ve complained about this before, but once you get up to the much larger sizes (say, past an E or F), all the bras magically become huge, cover everything up and are described as ‘minimizing’. It’s got a little better lately, but there really does seem to be some magical ideal size we’re all supposed to be.

Of course, you have to go to specialist bra companies to find anything in those sizes. It’s getting better though; ten years ago it was impossible to find anything sized F+ that wasn’t black or white, and clearly designed for someone’s grandma; now it’s possible to buy a J-cup strapless, if you know where to look.  
They fit like crap, but it’s a start…

While you hear plenty of negative things, and lots of jokes, about small boobs, which lead to women being insecure about size; I’ve always thought it’s quite clear that 90% of fashion is designed with at most a medium bust in mind, and small works best, generally. Friends of mine with anything past a D cup (and a D cup, at least on a smaller person is not ‘OMG busty!’, it’s average size) have a terrible time.

Large breasts look great in clothes, IMO, assuming you can find both bra and clothing that actually FITS the things.

I have a lot of trouble finding anything that fits my upper body, but the difficulty isn’t so much my proportions, which are proportionately curvy (8" between overbust and waist, 12" between waist and hips) so much as my overall very small size. If I gained about 10-15 lbs I could wear just about anything. I slaver for that day (and the thought of having more boobs is fun too!)  
ETA: Thank you gentleman in this thread for your support, but it’s worth noting that I do not care about your opinion of my boobs in the slightest. 🙂
