Boobs: Big or Small?
Celebrate all sizes: Empowering women to embrace their natural beauty, confidence, and individuality, no matter the shape.
Alright, let’s talk about the age-old debate: big boobs or small boobs? Some people swear by the handful, while others think bigger is always better. But let’s be real, right? Everyone’s body is different, and everyone should feel confident in their skin. If someone doesn’t like your body, that’s their problem. I’ve been both a 34C and a 42DDD, and I’ve got to say, I prefer smaller. Here’s why… So, here’s the thing: when my boobs are on the bigger side, my back and neck start to complain. I’ve read that being overweight or having larger breasts can cause these problems, and I can relate. It’s tough enough having big boobs, but trying to keep good posture is like trying to walk a tightrope with a bowling ball in each hand.
When my boobs are smaller, I notice a huge difference in my back and neck pain. My shoulders aren’t as tense, and I feel a lot lighter overall. Finding a swimsuit when you’re well-endowed is a whole different ballgame. Even when I was a 34C, it was a challenge to find a top and bottom that fit perfectly. When I was bigger, tankinis were my go-to, but even then, I had to get a larger size for the coverage and support I needed.
One-piece swimsuits are even worse. I could find one that fit my body, but my boobs would just spill out the top. It’s so frustrating that I can’t just grab a swimsuit off the rack without having to order a custom size. Exercising with big boobs can be a real challenge. It’s like trying to run a marathon with two bowling balls strapped to your chest. I can’t even do jumping jacks without feeling like my boobs are going to fly out. And don’t get me started on dancing or Zumba. It’s just awkward when your body feels like it’s working against you. Finding a good bra when you’re well-endowed is like searching for a needle in a haystack. Once you get past a certain size, it’s hard to find anything that’s both cute and supportive. And don’t even get me started on sports bras. I’ve tried so many, but none of them seem to be able to contain my girls during a workout. Finding a flattering shirt or blouse when you’re well-endowed can be a real challenge.
You know that ‘tent effect’ I’m talking about? When your shirt hangs straight down from your boobs and makes you look bigger than you are? It’s the worst! Dresses can be even worse. If they’re not cut close to your body, they just look like a big, shapeless blob. So much for those flowy, bohemian dresses. It’s really hard to find tops that are both flattering and comfortable.
I had a custom wedding dress made, but it was strapless. I didn’t feel comfortable in it, so my aunt was a lifesaver and added straps. But let me tell you, during my wedding dance-off with my sister-in-law, one of the straps snapped! I just laughed it off, had her take the other strap off, and tried to slow things down a bit for the rest of the night. Strapless dresses are not my friend. Sagging boobs are the worst, right? It’s like they’re just giving up on us. I’m only 35, but I’m already self-conscious about mine. I’ve read that if you start taking care of your skin early, it can help prevent sagging, especially if you lose weight later on. I used to be a powerlifter, and I have to admit, it did help keep my boobs perky. So maybe there’s something to be said for lifting weights!
I just want to reiterate that everyone’s body is different, and everyone should feel confident in their skin. This is just my personal experience, and I’m not trying to make anyone feel bad about their bodies. I’m working on losing weight and getting back to 34C.
The Bottom Line
In the end, it’s all about feeling good in your skin, whether you’re rocking a 34C or a 42DDD. Every size comes with its unique challenges, but confidence, comfort, and self-love are what truly matter. Big or small, your body is yours to celebrate, and nobody gets to define your worth but you.
So, embrace the beauty of diversity, prioritize your health, and wear your size proudly — because at the end of the day, self-acceptance is the ultimate win.
