36C boob thread

[SteveT]

For those ladies who required a boob thread

[giggirl]

But Steve - aren't you being a bit "sizeist"?

[HonaloochieB]

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?

[KalamityKel]

36C indeed :-|

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........................

Well that was entertaining. I like a bit of a flounce on a Friday morning me.

[giggirl]

Well flounced Steve. Are you wearing high heels? You can only really truly flounce in heels.

[Dulwich Born And Bred]

A - Almost boobs

B - Barely there

C - can't complain

D - Damn

DD - double damn

E - enormous

F - fake

Someone told me this yonks ago!

[Applespider]

Mwa ha ha!

What about those which are GG - GiGantic! As an ex used to quote to me ;-)

I don't mind the word 'boobs' but I do quite like using boobage instead of cleavage amongst my well-endowed friends.

Words I don't like - flaccid although gusset is up there too.

[Brendan]

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

[Keef]

There is an AA isn't there? But confusingly it's smaller than A rather than bigger. Not sure how I know that, or even if it's correct.

[SteveT]

I'm a big strong boy, I run up all my own flouncing frocks.

[buggie]

I'm sure I heard GG stands for Good God... being generously proportioned can report have had that response before!!

[Brendan]

So G doesn't stand for, Good form love?

[annaj]

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.

[SeanMacGabhann]

pshh - many of them don't seem to settle for their own boobs, never mind a proper-fitting bra!

[Brendan]

Sorry? I got as far in as ?Over the last 25 years boobs? have got a lot bigger? and then drifted into my own little fantasy world.

[Brendan]

Apologies for being such a pig.

I will be in the Plough this evening if any offended women want to throw a drink in my face.

[david_carnell]

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.

[annaj]

*sigh*

Fine. I tried to give an intelligent, reasoned, informative repsonse to a question and got only jiggle references for my trouble.

I'm leaving.

*turns (carefully to avoid distracting excess jiggle) and flounces off*

[Ant]

Bravissimo are good for those blessed with big bajongas.

(This statement is equally true from both the female and the male point of view.)

[Perkulator]

Baps.
