Does breast size matter?

[soccerrprp]

I don't really mind size of the boobs, as long as they are real.

 

I dated a woman with amazing implants, but do much prefer the real thing. Natural boobs feel much better.

 

Breast size is not a priority to me.

[sillyanswer]

For many guys the best pair of boobs are the ones they have their hands or mouth on. Really.

[RedRobin]

Ok, I feel a bit vulnerable and awkward asking this question, but please, please be as honest as possible with your answer.

 

How important is breast size when it comes to how interested you would be in seriously dating a girl (like as a potential girlfriend)... not talking about one night stands here.

 

If she was considered pretty or cute, had a nice personality, a nice figure in other respects...like not overweight, nice legs, etc.

 

In all honesty I am an A+ (meaning not completely flat but a little less than a handful). The reason I am so bothered is that growing up (I have all sisters) most of them constantly teased me about my breast size to the point I dread even wearing a bathing suite, as the teasing just got worse. Ironically, two of them had had breast implants ... one is naturally endowed, and she is actually the one sister who never made fun of me! So strangely, it is other women that have been the meanest about it. I do ware an enhancement bra that enhances me a little so my clothes fit better... and once the boyfriend saw me in the real, it never seemed to be a complete deal breaker for them (except for one). I always wondered if it really bothered them or wished I was bigger and they were just too nice to say something. Or whether or not they thought it made me less sexy. I never could bring myself to ask. And I would never allow myself to show my deep insecurity about it as I think that would be such a turn off to them.

 

I have lately been considering getting breast implants to be more like a B+ or small C just so I can feel more sexy. But I really struggle with the idea of it.. Because at the same time, I don't want something synthetic inside of me. So guys, be honest, would you rather her me smaller but natural or bigger (but they were implants).

 

Please be honest (but gentle). I know the question sounds shallow, but it seems society puts so much emphasis that that is what guys want, but sometimes I wonder ... is it REALLY true.. do you really care THAT much? Or are my sisters full of s _ _ t?

 

Here is the deal... if you get smaller implants... just enough to be proportioned... and pay the money to get REALLY GOOD ONES, the guys will never know the difference. Would you open your mouth and let a guy count the fillings in your teeth? Or if you had braces? If you really think it would make you more confident, then do it. My parents invested in some serious orthodontic work on me when I was a kid... and I'm eternally grateful. I personally don't view an investment in small, reasonably sized implants as anything different than braces... but that is just me. I'm happy with my size and am athletic... in fact, mine are BIGGER than I'd like... but I totally get why a woman would want bigger ones. A lot of my friends are super flat. Like A-. They don't feel feminine at all... but they've compensated by learning to be happy with what their body does... not what it looks like. Real men love that.

 

...have a long chat with the sister who is naturally endowed and see what she says. Having bigger boobs isn't everything it is cracked up to be. I was smaller up until recently, and shockingly (!!) grew a whole cup size in about two years... without gaining weight anywhere else. It bothers me now, because I'm a dancer/runner, etc and have to change how I dance because of it. Totally annoying.

 

Anyway, the ones these guys are talking about are ones that were done years ago or they see in cheap porn movies.

 

How do I know this? I know some women who have them. None of them are scary porn boobs and their husbands love them just the same. Although, I'll say that their husbands also told them they'd still love them either way... and I believe them.

 

On the other hand, you can wait until you outgrow (no pun intended) the crop of men who are fixated on every little detail about a woman's body so that they can feel better about themselves. For these guys, it is mostly a power trip and designed to make you feel a teensy weensy bit insecure in order to keep you around.

 

For those guys, if it's not your boobs they comment on, it would be something else. Ditch 'em. Good men can easily manage and are attracted to a fit, healthy, happy woman of any boob size.

Some woman here a while ago made the ridiculous comparison of men's height and women's breast size. In other words, we all have our preferences.

 

The difference is that height for most women is an absolute deal breaker.

 

For most men, the preference of breast size is just that, a preference.

 

There is no bigger boob guy than me, yet almost all the women I have dated have been as flat as you, and it never bothered me one bit.

 

Absolutely 100%

 

I love a big pair of nice breasts..But it would never be a dealbreaker, nor would I try to convince her to get implants. Its a plus, but never a necessity.

 

TFY

[apple OR orange]

38E or above (40 might be the largest i would go to), and they have to be symmetrical and large areolas as well.

 

Yes i am very picky and single for well over 10 years.... so working well this end.

[MissBee]

Different people like different things.

 

Some men like small breasts, some like large, some like any kind.

 

Some don't care about breasts but are ass men, some men don't care about ass and are breast men.

 

There are all kinds and I wouldn't be worried about comparing yourself to bigger busted women. Work with what you have, many men will be attracted to you...or if all else fails you can chance a boob job.

[somedude81]

Hey the boobie thread is back!

 

No matter how big or small, some guy will like them. That's just how men are.

Somehow RR you will find a way to use a thread to get in a good lick on the male gender.

 

OP clearly stated that the teasing from her SISTERS made her self-conscious about her small breasts.

 

Ksinger, plenty of guys have answered here to let you know it is not a problem. From my experience, I have always liked athletic girls and by and large they are on the flat side. If you take good care of yourself and that is your only flaw you will be just fine.

[blueskyday]

I have small boobs, and I rock them! It's really about confidence. Flash them to your guy. Touch them in front of him. Really enjoy sex. Enjoy your body. I have a small waist and a nice shapely booty and legs, so I wear short skirts, tight Jeans. also wear a lot of backless tops and dresses. Show off your shoulders, collar bones, slender ankles. Its about your WHOLE body. Really, if a guy didn't like my small perfect boobs, he can't have them! Haha! plenty of men love them!

 

My boyfriend loves my arms. Go figure. Everyone has a favorite part of the female form. Be appreciated. A appreciative man makes a great lover!

 

I'm confident, but wasn't always. I think it comes with age and experience. Years ago I was in LA, the capital of boob jobs. One night at a Hollywood party, a guy friend told me I was very hot and could be in the movie business and get noticed by directors if I got a boob job. And I could get more men, too. Otherwise, they wouldn't want me over all the other LA women. I laughed and said I would wouldn't be interested in any guy who would only be interested in me if I had a boob job..funny thing is, a director overheard that and we had a great night talking it up. He loved that I thought that way and told me I stood out. I never forgot how good that felt!

[Eclypse]

I personally do not mind. For me proportion is the most important. My gf is really really petite. Bazongas would look out of place on her.

 

Overall, big or small it doesn't matter. Just let me touch them!

[LSTom]

I'm rather small chested. I've been single for a while. And while my ex still begs me to take him back, and he always showed attraction to my body, well, a couple times he made insensitive jokes about my meager cups and I noticed how he lusted after busty actresses or porn stars. I even lost some weight while we were still together, and he commented about my breasts shrinking. I asked him what would happen if I ended up being flat chested. He said we would've had to see, because if he lost his attraction to me we would've had to split, or maybe he would've paid for my implants. I'd never get implants, by the way.

 

Now that I'm single I've noticed how men favor women with large breasts a lot more. I have a good waist to hip ratio (it means my waist is significantly smaller than my hips). I usually wear tight clothes to emphasize this, and I get some attention. But nowhere as near as girls with perfect cleavage. I mean, many models are thin, like me, with small breasts, and they're beautiful, yes, but not hot. Yet glamour models, who're slim with big breasts are well, men can't stop drooling.

 

I even met a guy recently. He says I'd caught his attention from some time ago. However, he had this perception of me, as sort of an innocent, asexual, even religious girl. I'm none of that. Not innocent, very sexual and not religious at all. I asked him what was it. He said he didn't know, it was just the way I look, maybe the way I dress. But I don't wear conservative clothes. Once we talked about sex, he said his perception of me took a 180° turn.

 

No busty gal ever deals with that. And I mean, when I want guys to notice me, I don't want them to think that I'm asexual, or that I'm too innocent or a prude. I mean, I wear make up, tight clothes, etc. Yet I project that image.

 

I wonder why, if I'm not bad looking, I get less attention simply because of tissue that I have no control over. Weird, huh? Especially since I never do that to guys. I'm not too shallow when it comes to dating, to the point even other guys have told me to refine my taste.

 

I don't want to be simply the cute girl. I want to be more than that. I wonder if my small bust is just 'cute' rather than hot, and if I'll ever be enough for one man. I don't want love anyway for a long time... so right now, whatever I have with a guy, I want it to be casual, so I really don't care about getting a guy who "loves me for me". I want to have fun...

 

Well, ask yourself this, do women like men with small penises? Women and men aren't much different from each other in a lot of ways.

[camillalev]

I have small boobs and never had it be a deterrent. Still get loads of attention and guys pursuing. My bfs have only had positive things to say about my body and what it does to them but if I'm being honest I'm sure they would not have minded an extra cup or two to grab onto. Its easier to preach confidence than to exercise it, but you gotta work with what you have!

 

Honestly, dont let the innocence thing bother you. Some guys say I give off sexual vibes, other guys say innocent vibe. I like both. I think its quite sexy to have both sides of one coin.

[camillalev]

I don't want love anyway for a long time... so right now, whatever I have with a guy, I want it to be casual, so I really don't care about getting a guy who "loves me for me". I want to have fun...

 

 

So just have fun and dont think about it so much!! :bunny:

Well what's so bad about being innocent?

 

I wish people could think I look innocent. People always say I look like I'm bold like a bad girl sexually promiscuous and Amoral I don't have the luxury to dress however I want even though I'm the innocent type at least you have versatility.

[Dakotaross14]

In my experience (having big breasts) I definitely don't get as much attention as my hot, skinny ex roommates! (One was an A cup and the other a B I think). I mean, you have to dress a little sexier maybe, show a little cleavage or wear a tube top, but you still come off looking sexy but not slutty. They always got way more attention than me... They are skinnier I guess (One was about 5'6, 112 and the other was 5'3, 110-- but I'm 5'1 115 or so with 34Ds so I'm not like fat either).

 

Although lately I will admit that lately I've been getting guys that just want to hook up and nothing else, but I don't know if that's because of my boobs, or just because a lot of guys are like that and coincidentally I've been meeting them.

 

I think it has to do with the fact that they were skinny.

 

When it comes to skinny v. Fat skinny wins usually. Skinny girls with big boobs usually have a better standing than a skinny ruler shape or a fat girl from my experience.

I don't know that that's entirely true. I'm a bigger girl, and have really big boobs, and I still get guys gawking at me down the street and in other public places. Skinniness can play a part, but having big boobs and a slamming body isn't overly different to having big boobs and a fatter body.

[Revolver]

Most men prefer a woman of a certain size but its not a requirement

No but when you're thin your ratio is likely to be lower which makes your boobs look more dominant on your body. My measurements are 36.5-24. I have small hips a D cup and I'm barely 100 lbs and 5'1". At this point people act like its immoral for me to just wear a tank top.

People constantly make assumptions because I have big boobs.

 

For one people will make that assumption I chose this size and that I got implants because they're too perky or round like most boobs are tube shaped or sagged. Added to the fact that I'm very thin with big boobs. So proportionally they look fake. But anyway that in itself gives me bad judgement because of my boobs. Because its not just that people look me like I'm a slut but I'm a fake whore. And people assume that I'm plastic superficial and have self esteem emotional issues because I bought my boobs. Which isn't true. But for me being skinny has contributed to the fake boob myth.

I like a nice full chest, but it doesn't make a woman. If she's a kind, open, caring and intelligent person and I'm attracted to her otherwise, it's not a big deal. If it was, I'd be an utterly shallow person.

Truth be told, a whole lot of guys prefer a thicker woman to skin and bones. I'm one of them.

[PiedPiper]

To me, it seems women are more concerned about the size of their breasts then men are.

 

As a male, let me assure you anything between an ‘A’ (not totally flat-chested, though) and a ‘C’ is great. Anything larger is suffocation hazard for men (lol) and probably not too comfortable for a woman. I don’t care if they’re perky, puffy or saggy – they are all great.

 

Ladies, relax; be happy with what nature gave you. Use those up-lifting bras, padded bras, falsies, tape or whatever if it makes YOU feel more feminine. To a guy, if your boobs can be grasped, and all or most of it fits in his mouth, it’s perfect.

 

DON’T go the breast enlargement or breast reduction route unless medically necessary. Some guys, including me, find breast enhancement a ‘turn-off’. I’d rather not be fondling a sack of gel.

 

Now, nipples – that’s a different story!

You had my support until the comment about nothing larger than C. That was crazy talk!

[NoMoreJerks]

I wear DD , but I believe that if measured correctly, I might be even bigger. I have a love-hate relationship with my boobs. Some days I love them and find them sexy, and other days not so much. Because they are so large, they are as a result rather saggy, since over time the muscles will lose their strength to carry all that weight, I guess..... I am more concerned with the sagginess than the weight itself, as it prevents me from going bra-less and wearing certain types of dresses, etc. My ex never had an issue with how big my breasts are. On the contrary, he loved them, and I loved shoving them in his face and mouth when I was on top of him lol. He loved that.

Are you serious?? Telling us to feel comfortable with what nature gave us and at the same time, deeming anything above a C cup unacceptable (and presumably anything smaller than A cup) for many of us, nature gave us Ds, Es and beyond, sorry but your "suffocation concern" is the last thing on our minds.

 

How about this.. Men butt out and stop telling us women what to do with our bodies and how we should and should not feel about our breasts.

[Haydn]

Great advice OP!
