Boobalicious

I have always had small boobs. On a bad day I'd feel really self-conscious and feel very un-feminine. On a good day I'd love them and tell myself that big boobs would look extremely out of place on my skinny body.

Was reading a chick blog called 'The Boobs' and wow. There were LOTS of great boobage on display and I started feeling small (haha punny) and inadequate again.

However, I read on and discovered that they don't only appreciate voluptuous girls but also those flat-chesties like me. One of the readers posted up a familiar link that I've visited before a long time ago but completely forgotten about.

And there are pages upon pages of normal boobs.

I've always read in magazines that yes, boobs do come in all shapes, sizes, and colours - but that contradicted with their gorgeous boobalicious models on the cover and it just came off as a half-arsed attempt to make some readers feel better.

I looked at the website again, and suddenly I feel a great rush of affection towards my boobs (god I sound like a freak -.-) and you know what? I love them.

They aren't big and juicy but on the bright side, they don't sag at all and despite a being different in size, they are pretty balanced and I don't have areola the size of salted biscuits. Not that having big areolae is a bad thing, but I think that would look disproportionate with my small boobs.

And yes, my boyfriend loves my boobs too. Of course, I'm sure he wouldn't mind if they were a bit bigger, but he tells me he appreciates them all the same. And since, he, I, a bra fitter, my mom and a gynaecologist are probably the only people who are ever going to see me topless, (unless I get really drunk and skinny dip) all your opinions are irrelevant.

It's just that when I came here, there were so many girls with great boobs and could wear all types of tops - singlets, bikinis, v-necks, boob tubes and whatnot...I was perpetually stuck wearing t-shirts that covered up my shoulders (damn my bony frame! )

But really, I shouldn't be surprised because the people here are generally bigger (Aus is the 2nd most obese country after US) and although I'm not saying they're all fat and ogrelike, they have more flesh, and naturally, bigger boobs.

Also, some of my girl friends do remark about the tragedy of being flat-chested and how big boobs always win just made me feel even worse about myself. When I asked Amanda to think what other tops I could wear besides t-shirts, she just stoned, smiled slightly and looked away. My mom bought me a gorgeous strapless maxi dress. I put it on, and when I lifted my arms up, they promptly slid down and almost fell off.

It's little incidents like these that have taken a serious toll on my self-esteem. I remember the time when I used to be all: 'this is the way I am and if you don't like it, fuck you!'

I don't know when I started caring so much about what people say.

I read the stories that accompanied each picture on the boob site, and some were encouraging while others just made me feel so sad.

One girl with these perfect boobs (like perky B cup - the way I want mine to be) said she felt they were too small and were hideous. Her self-esteem issues were so bad that she never had a boyfriend because the idea of anyone ever seeing her naked was terrifying.

And this comes from a girl whose boobs I so desperately wanted!

People aren't happy with what they have. I read on through and saw girls with huge boobs who wanted reductions, tiny boobed-girls who took the Pill just to be more womanly. (Which I HAVE seriously considered, but wasn't prepared to deal with the side-effects.)

Some of them had boobs that I didn't like - saggy and drooping, with areolae that covered the entire pointy part of their boobs...but they loved them. I guess it's just how you perceive your body. Other people may not like them, but the most important view is yours.

If you love them, fuck what other people think. Especially guys who say they only love big-boobed girls. If you whip out your 9-inch pornstar dick and 6-pack abs and flex your model biceps while telling me this, then okay fine. But otherwise I'm pretty sure you aren't what other girls have in mind either. And I'm not saying that guys are the only one's who discriminate...girls are just as guilty of this too.

In fact, I think girls have hurt my feelings more than guys have ever done. ( Not intentionally, I hope. If so, then suck mah ballzz pls)

But the point is, you should just appreciate who you are. Thanks to the media, we are bombarded daily by perfectly round, perky big boobs and we forget that not all of us are graced with good genes/are photoshopped.

I'm thin. I have A cup boobs (which fluctuate from AA to almost B depending on the time of month) and they're fine, thank you.

I would never consider having those hideous pornstar implants - I would like to breastfeed my children and not be numb in the chest, thanks. I'd still like to gain some weight because I'm really unhealthy but otherwise...

As for those girls with huge boobs, flaunt them when you can. Be glad you have them. They may be huge and ache and maybe you can't wear bikini tops, but be thankful that you can wear feminine dresses and tops without unintentionally flashing the crowd when you lift up your arms.

As for flatties like me, be happy you can run around without having gravity fucking around with your chest. You don't have to wear a bra and you won't sag. You won't experience those backaches that big-breasted women sometimes experience, and although we can't wear strapless tops, we don't have to worry about boobs popping out of bikini tops anytime.

Love your boobies!

Good night

p.s. Cotton On size 8A bras are half the price of larger-sized bras during a sale (5$ as opposed to 10$). HAHA. I don't find it insulting that we're not of 'common stock,' but awesome that I get to save my money ^__^
