Is it bad I immediately know who those 3 said women are without googling them?.. And I agree with the before mentioned statement…

[QUOTE=malkavia]

As for the OP, I think it’s great that you dig the little lady’s tittums. That said, I would KILL my husband if I ever ran across a post on a msg board about how NOT breastically endowed I am.  
[/QUOTE]

Heh. My wife of more than 20 years has small boobs. And she knows it.

They are also perfectly nice and do not sag despite nursing 5 kids over the years, and being over 50. They are attached to one of the best looking women I know.

My best friend has even converted. He was always a big boob man, but he is very happy with his girl friend’s. He now knows what 934spe has realized, boobs are good. Boobs with access are great.

That said, many women my age seem to be getting “enhancements”, especially after a divorce. I don’t know if the fading of youthful beauty makes them resort to increasing size, or what. My friends are all in very good shape, but perhaps feel they need them to attract a man? Or maybe to attract more men? One friend said she was told by another, “Just go get them, and have fun with them!” Said friend is married, so I think we are talking good clean fun, but I can be naive.

I have not changed my opinions of any of my friends with boob jobs, anymore than I would change my opinions about guys with hair transplants. (If I knew any.) Now a guy with a boob job, that would change my opinion.

Dammit, I finished with a something meant for another thread. The dangers of tabs and an old, nearly senile mind.

I meant to add that the best thing about small boobs is the woman attached to them. It has been pointed out to me that I am most smitten by athletic women aging well and laughing much. Almost all of these women bear small breasts.

OH YEAH! (Insert cheesy porn music here) Give me a woman with

BIG  
BOUNCY  
PROMENENT

Personality Traits!  
Really, it never mattered to me what the packaging was like, it was what it contained…

I like dynamic, opinionated, understanding, well read, humourous women…

And I am lucky to have married a woman well endowed in those attributes…

[QUOTE=Sunrazor]  
The A-cup is a turn-on, yep, yep, yep … but I do prefer just the hint of a tummy. There’s something about the taut roundness of a nubile 22-year-old’s belly that promises fertility and invites insemination. And just enough round, firm bottom to fill one’s hands … aw, crap, hold on a minute …  
[/QUOTE]

You ought to change your handle to **Handjob**. 😃

As long as I’m committing hit and run threadicide, I’ve always loved the small kind, as at that size there can still be a ton of variation in shape. Big is just umm well BIG, and as an introvert (can’t find cite but I read this once) I don’t feel overwhelmed by all that flesh. In any event as this thread has shown it certainly is a Big Lie that all men like them huge, so I hope some female lurkers out there are paying attention: NO I’m not just saying it to make you feel good I **really** do like them small!

As **gonzomax** once said, while watching Baywatch: “son, if you’ve seen two, you’ve seen them all. You want to see them all, just to make sure”.

Somewhere off in the distance, a gong sounded and my life suddenly had meaning…a _quest_, if you will (and I will).

[QUOTE=OneCentStamp]

Now look at Mount Fujiyama.  
[/QUOTE]

Sorry to pick a nit in this otherwise breast-tastic thread, I feel obligated to point out that, because ‘yama’ is Japanese for mountain, you are essentially saying ‘Mount Fuji Mountain.’ Mount Fuji or Fujiyama is best, although in native Japanese it is most often referred to as Fuji-san. [I even have a cite ^^](http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/mount.html)

As for the breasts, perkiness outweights size anyday. A taut C cup is probably my favorite. Seeing as how I seem fated to marry a Japanese girl though, I doubt I will ever achieve that fantasy ☹

I love small breasts with perky nipples. Find even AA breasts to be hawt. Put me in the camp that doesn’t like implants except as the occaisional eye candy. Natural flat as a board breasts are far superior IMHO

well, yes and no. Given increased nutrician and that most kids get a lot more milk these days, breast sizes in Asia have been increasing quite noticeably. I have personally noticed this in the past 20 years

Some of these posts sound like Dr. Seuss gone Wild:  
I like breasts, yes I do.  
I like breasts on you and you!  
I like 'em big, I like 'em small.  
I like breasts, and I like 'em all!

As for me, I love that breasts come in different sizes! Each has its own beauty, so the small ones are just as great as the bigger ones. Although I’m less of a fan of big ones with stretch marks (or veins) then the itty bitty titties. I also prefer small, perky nipples to the big saucer nipples with the huge areolas.
