TIL- I am not womanly.
What do you think about yourself?
I recognize that no amount of dedication, hard work, sweat and tears in the gym, eating right or taking care of my body can change the size of my breasts. So i accept them.
It's not the same as losing weight, which can be changed. It's not the same as booty which can be built.
Breasts are made of fatty tissue, which i cannot magically grow.
I see no issue whatsoever like i said earlier on in women who chose to get breast implants. But for myself, i like the fact that my chest is perky, small, proportionate to my body, and never inhibits me from certain exercise or movements. I also don't have to worry about sagging later on in life.
Actually, small boobs sag too. Skin loses elasticity as you age. Saying your boobs won't sag just because they're small is like saying your hands won't wrinkle... just... because your hands are special.0 -

Breasts aren't made entirely of fatty tissue.
I realize that. My point was that you cannot make your breasts larger.
Yeah but that's what you said. I just get tired of people putting down breasts as though they're just fat.
And you're right, you can grow sea monkeys but you can't grow breasts lol if nature didn't intend it. You're happy with what you've got and so is the OP. Not much problem here.0 -

Actually the entire reason this was pointed out was because op said and i quote "I rather have some fat then be skinny with small breast, it's not womanly since we're being honest."0 -

Okay. Well, they wont be sagging more than a few inches and surely not to my navel.
either way, i see no issue with them. And i don't think having small breasts makes anyone less of a woman. Especially since it's not within our control.

That's very true, when I was 150 I wore a size 7... It really does depend on your body type.
At 143 my waist is small, I fit into size small.BrittaniDirks wrote: »You cant go by weight you have to go by How you feel, so many people look different at so many diff weights. When I was 150 I wore size 12 My best friend wears size 0 and weighs 140 very diff body types.

and you know what? None of us with boobies will be sagging to our navels either. You keep trying to paint yourself as above it all, but really, you're kind of catty. Is there anyone else you'd like to point at and yell "implants!"
You can love your body without putting other bodies down. That's kind of important to be kind to other women.0 -
OP, keep in mind that because you can't control where you lose fat, you could end up with huge boobs and no *kitten*.0

breasts are made up of glandular, fatty, and fibrous tissues. What makes breasts large? It's the fatty tissue. what gives your breasts their shape? It's the fatty tissue.
Get down to a low enough body fat percentage and tell me how anyone's breasts look.
Get off your high horse.

If I was a guy sex wouldn't be fun with someone with a boy body type, I'd want my hands filled with boobs, *kitten* to grab, thighs to squeeze, I wouldn't want to feel Boney hip bones. Small tummy though.
Most outrageous comment of the thread so far.
This is hilarious and super offensive.

We each have our own preferences. Personally I don't find women who whittle their bodies down to look like a 12 year old boy particularly attractive.
However I'm talking about doing it deliberately, I realise some women are just born that way..
A friend of mine who lost a lot of weight, a lot more than she should have.... Lost her boobs and bum, and literally wore tight undergarments to flatten them out even further. She looked great at 65kgs and still had decent boobs and bum. She however pushed it too far by losing another 10kgs.
She is a perfect example of purposefully losing weight to look like an underdeveloped teenager

Agreed. Boob size doesn't matter. And most guys don't seem to actually care either. Seems more like it's women who care (based on my experience, so it's not necessarily true) But I don't think it matters whether boobs sag at all. It's part of being a woman. It's pretty much irrelevant because it happens to all of us. Even women with implants (unless they get them after their skin has lost the elasticity - i.e. when they're older).0 -

I'm 163# and 5'3 in this photo. I run 3-4x and lift 2x weekly. I am actually loving how I look right now.... With clothes on. Well, without clothes too for that matter. I have worked so hard and I have seen awesome changes in the 'worst' places on my body(thighs, butt, stomach). I still want to lose about 25# but I'm really loving the gradually changes to witness my hard work in action.... Like lines on the outside of my stomach or some serious firmness in my tushy and even my thighs thinning out/ completely changing shape from running. Love yourself in all your shapes and sizes because it's amazing what you've accomplished..
P.s. No push up bra, no spanx, and I've lost 49.4#....0 -

ummmm I beg to differ. My hubby keeps telling me to stop losing weight, without giving me a decent reason why. ....
yesterday he fiiiiiinally admitted it's because he doesn't want my boobs to get smaller. That's it! His one and only reason

The fatty tissue also isn't the only thing that determines the size - not all women have the same amount of other breast tissues - which is why it explains that some women can lose oodles of weight but never decrease cup size (despite them wanting to *grumble* - me). Big boobs are not necessarily full of fat. Mine didn't shrink at all. Still an F cup, even at a size 2-4. (Sorry this post is in response to the one you also replied to, I was too lazy to find it). I seriously will never understand why boobs are such a big deal. That's probably just me though.0 -

Gorgeous! I started at 163 and I'm 5'4". I was curvy too but my upper body was smaller and hips might have been bigger. I love your shape.0 -

I think everyone has their own personal preference. If you had them when he got with you, you can bet on that being his preference. ;P
