Reading lee’s thread made me feel very very, er, small. This thread is a place where women with small breasts do not have to listen to men drone on about how important huge chunks of fat on the chest area are to them, etc. I actually read an article in a magazine called _Blonde_ where the author went on for the entire piece about how when a large-breasted woman walks into the room, it turns his head (and the head of every other man there, according to him). I, a lowly 36B, reacted to this with despair. For years, the media had been implying that bigger was best, and now it was trendy to actually just come out and say it. I liked it better when men kept these preferences behind closed doors. People keep on telling me that there are men who prefer small-breasted women, but if there are, they must all be living under rocks on Jupiter, because I have never met one of them, much less seen any be vocal in the media. So screw you, Chesty LaRoux! I am pathetic and petty and bitter, I know, but this is my rant and I’m going to spew it. If you don’t like it, don’t click on the thread. And any women who think I am being unfair are free to speak for the small-breasted community at large. I am only speaking for myself. ---

Hey, rant on. I would love to be smaller on top, and if I ever get the nerve for the surgery, I will be. Sorry, I’m not an A or B checking in. I don’t think that I like the thought that men only like me for my chest size, and would love to be able to buy a bra in a size normally sold in a department store. Sorry for jumping in. I just wanted to say that I’m behind you all the way. Men pay too much attention to our chest size. ---

I always thought the “lean _waayyyyyyyyyy_ over to get a good look” was amusing. Maybe I’m just starved for attention. Anyway. What’s even more pathetic are those girls who actually base their entire selves around their chests… a girl I know states that she can “bed any guy” she wants simply because she’s got footballs on her torso. Too bad all the guys I’ve polled think that appendeges that huge are gross… I miss high school already. ---

Well, Jupiter or otherwise, there are. Though when it comes down to it, \* does it freakin matter? \* Good lord, they’re (presumably) attached to a woman. With the exception of a few evil bitches I have run afoul of over the years, \* this is a good thing. \* Though, i suppose one (as a male) should be thankfull for said people–they reduce the competition considerably.

I don’t wear a bra . . . as I’m a guy, that’s probably a guud thing. But I am here to assure all of you that there are, indeed, men who prefer smaller women. I am among them. My reasons aside, I find that, in general, women who have smaller breasts also tend (tend, in MY experience. YMMV) to be more fit, if for no other reason than that their breasts don’t hurt as much when they jog or such. Hope this is of some comfort. By the way, from a neurological standpoint smaller breasts are much more sensitive to touch and souch, as the nerve endings are more concentrated. Just thought I’d pass that little bit (no pun intended) of news along. ---

I’m a guy. I like smaller breasts. There I said it. I am more attracted to women with smaller breasts then large. Does this mean I wondn’t date or get involved with someone due to breast size either way? Absolutly not. Though we’re at the end of our relationship I have been involved for the last almost 4 years now with a woman with some of the largest breasts I have ever seen. She barely fits into a DD bra and more realisticly should have an F but they’re hard to find. She doesn’t like them because they hurt her back and she has problems finding clothes that fit right. She plans on getting a reduction some day. She would probably consider you lucky. A 36B sounds about perfect to me. All that being said… yeah, my head still turns with the rest of the testosterone blessed. Sorry. Can’t help it. ---

i have to admit that i’d give anything to be a b, or even a full a. but i’ve gotten used to my little tits, and my fiancé seems to like them. as a matter of fact, i seem to recall one of his friends commenting that they’re “perky” and he likes them. (he’s a rather open guy, but i like him. and hey, i’m rather open, too.) i do wear wonderbras a lot of the time, but at least i’m not in denial like my mother. hers are smaller than mine and she keeps buying herself b-cup bras. tsk, tsk, tsk. > [@](#): > > Hope this is of some comfort. By the way, from a neurological standpoint smaller breasts are much more sensitive to touch and souch, as the nerve endings are more concentrated. Just thought I’d pass that little bit (no pun intended) of news along. seeing as i’ve never been large-breasted, i don’t know for sure, but i don’t doubt it. i think i’m one of the most sensitive women on the planet! (not a bad thing, not at all.) ---

I know, yes _personally_ know, many guys who prefer smaller breasts to larger ones. “More than a handful’s too much” I hear them say. I’m proud of what I have. 38B checking in. ---

I know I wasnt invited, but her I am, huge boobs & all. Just for the record, not all big busted women are man-stealing whores. For me its genetic. Its not like I went out and BOUGHT them. Its no more my fault tey are big, than its your fault yours are small. I particularly liked this comment: **a girl I know states that she can “bed any guy” she wants simply because she’s got footballs on her torso. Too bad all the guys I’ve polled think that appendeges that huge are gross…** Thanks, thanks alot. I think I will go eat a couple of pies and then hang myself. Just because I have big tits doesnt mean I dont have feelings. ---

well… they factored in the fact that she herself has no personality, an ego to rival that of William F. Buckley, and about as much class as Amy Fisher. ---

Kelli: it’s not the fact that we find larger breasts hideous (I don’t) but that her personality would just drive me away like I was being chased by Satan (no offense :)). I, for one, have seen entirely too many episodes of Jenny Jones where they have these women with large chests (or they think they have large chests) who think they are God’s gift to men. Then you get the women with smaller chests who don’t think that . . . they have nice personalities. They aren’t trying to be bigger and badder than all of Chitown. I’ve also seen lots of episodes where women with rather small breasts think they are all that . . . and I’m no more attracted to them than I am to the ones with F cups. Tiggeril, I know this based on a few things: 1. My father is a nurse and as such knows these things. 2. It stands to reason . . . if there are more sensory organs or whatever, you’re going to get more bang for your buck and such. 3. In my biology class we talked about such things, albeit in vague ways. BTW, Cessandra . . . some men are more turned on by smaller breasts than larger breasts. There’s a movie starring Larry Fishburn and some white guy with a scene involving a woman with fairly small breasts . . . damn. Fuckit, now I’m going to get spammed by guys wanting to know the title (I don’t know) and women with larger breasts who are annoyed with me. ---

The thing is, what’s behind those breasts? A nice personality, nice face, or an icy cut-down? I can’t stand being with people who are nasty mentally or personality-wise. OTOH, I don’t have any problem talking to people who don’t look like the devil with a red dress on. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-a-b-cup-club-no-cs-ds-etc-allowed/27374.md?page=2)
