Anyone else loathe the word 'boob' when applied to a female breast? I'm not going to explain why, because I'm not sure I know absolutely. And I don't want to make a tit of myself.

I put it in the same box as 'hubby' 'tummy' 'tot' and 'romp'. All words that make me shudder. And should be put in a box and towed out to sea.

I agree, there are so many other great monikers, such as "norks" and "bristols", that using boobs just seems like a wasted opportunity. As an aside, has there ever been a worse word than gusset?

Groin. I don't like groin. Yuk. Horrible word. Also, moist (and don't even think about putting the two together because that's just double yuk). I agree about gusset though.

Surely not as sizeist as 40D.

Giggirl I toned it down deliberately in consideration of the not so well endowed female form, and it seemed about the size of the perfect 10 which all the ladies seem to hanker after, (according to the media).



Using the boob word is very apt in this case, as according to my dictionary it means:- blunder/error/lapse/miscue.


I should never have stuck my neck out and been so accomodating in starting this thread, I only obliged because of the ladies complaints on the 40D thread not being about breasts.


I knew no good would come of it.


They are only of value when they are lactating, other than that they are for the poseur, and the voyeur!


You can all sod off, and take your norks and bristols with you.


Creeps off chuntering about wasting time on favours for undeserving norkish gits........................

Why do you get DD and not AA, BB and CC?



Because D used to be the biggest size you could get. Over the last 25 years boobs (I think that's an ok word) have got a lot bigger. Nobody knowns why exactly, it thought to be possibly linked to the general trend towards obesity or changes in diet to include more natural (eg from soya) and artificial (though meat) oestrogens or increased use of the oral contraceptive pill. Anyway, when bra manufacturers realised they needed to make a size bigger that D they called it DD, but pretty soon that wasn't big enough either so they went on up the alphabet. Another theory is that boobs aren't actually getting that much bigger, but that womens' expectations are higher and they are no longer prepared to settle for a poorly fitting bra. The traditional sizing system works on two measurements, below the bust and around, but this doesn't take indivdual shape into account at all. Many women, some surveys suggest most, are wearing bras that are too big around the back and too small in the cup. As women learn more about their bodies, the demand for a greater range of sizes increases.


Oh and Keef is correct, there is a AA and it's smaller that A.


Well, you did ask.

It would make great documentary footage.


*in Attenborough voice*

And here we see the growth of the female breast through the ages. No one is sure why their jiggling effect is so hypnotic on the male human but this ancient fertility ritule is thought to date back to the beginning of time itself.

      Thames Water meter rip off?

      By Rumbero · Posted

      I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.

      Plumber recommendation - Andy Burke

      By shazza76 · Posted

      Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!

      Be careful on the pavements...

      By malumbu · Posted

      Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
