I'm right there with you, girl. I've been an A all of my life and for a very long time felt self-conscious about it. Until I had kids and breast fed. Then I had BOOBS. Much to my surprise, I HATED them. Well... I loved breast feeding and that they were functioning properly, yada, yada. What I hated was the fact that the were always getting in my way. None of my shirts fit properly... they completely screwed up my golf swing... (which really sucked)...
I laugh about it now because for most of my teenage and early twenty years, I thought I had been genetically ripped off somehow... But now that I am so OVER that notion (and the breast feeding boom of the 90s), I LOVE my smaller breasts.
Before I came along, my H was dating a woman who was the poster girl for the song "She's a Brick House." Stacked and packed. She got lots of looks, that's for sure. But guys LOOK at breasts... that's just what they do. Just like girls window shop. We can't NOT look in the window. But this woman's boobs certainly didn't save their relatonship. Even her boobs couldn't do that.
I asked my H once if he wanted me to get a boob job, and you should have seen the look on his face. The thought had never, ever, ever occurred to him. "Why would you want to do that? What about the health risks?" etc., etc. I told him I didn't want to do it, but like you, I thought boob size mattered to guys...
He said, 'but you are so much more than just your boobs. Your boobs work very well on you. It's not about a certain body part, but how all the parts fit and work together that make you... you.'
I have to say that was one of the sweetest things that man has ever said to me. Obviously, because I still remember it very vividly.
JJ, Guess everyone wants to be someone else!! I've seen your pic, why would you ever trade that for Meryl Streep?????
I don't mind the sun sometime
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
And smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and Sugar
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look
Through someone elses eyes

Corri, We should start a lingerie company that serves petite chested girls!!

When you start that lingerie company I'm there with you. I went from a full B to a small BA after breastfeeding my first two. After I finish bf this one who knows where I will wind up. I can honestly say that I felt a lot better about my size after nursing my first two babies because I felt "womanly" in the best sense of the word - my "underdeveloped" breasts did a great job. That being said, I would get augmentation in a heartbeat.
H hates that I feel that way. He believes that people shouldn't mess around with God's creation. Blah! Blah! As I have gotten older I have learned to be proud of my body for what it can do - have sex, bear children, nurse, do karate, run etc... Breast size feels like less of an issue now. If I got surgery it would be so that clothes fit better, so that I had a more flagrantly sexy look to enjoy etc... Anyway, maybe someday I will. Maybe, I won't. I can be sexy either way (BTW - a random 20ish guy told me so the other day - I was walking my baby in her stroller and he said, "You're cute and your baby is too). Not bad for a 37yo Mama of 3 with small boobs!

karen1 think along those lines above. They worked well for the babies. That is what counts.
My W had a lumpectomy so one breast is smaller than the other and also lopsided. Does it make me less interested in her as a woman? A big no on my part. Do I wish she thought she was normal looking or sexy looking, from her POV, yes to make her feel better. So who looks when the lights are out and you are emotionally and sexually connected and having an "O".
I also listened to several shows on TV where size was discussed, male and female. I always thought male size (but not huge) related to a womans satisfaction. After listening to many women say a huge penis was often painful I decided that me being in the normal range and my W telling me to sometimes not go in all the way, I quit being concerned about my size.
I know women think about looking good in clothing so I am not dismissing that part of the "Does size matter". I like the idea of "This is what I got when I was made." "I use it to the best of my ability." "I am satisfied." If it is easy to fix then maybe lets improve on mother nature. To me augmentation falls under the heading of doable. but I do not know that I would call it that easy. Also, when you are older mamograms are less accurate I hear.
Lou, How noticable is the difference between the two boobs?
I have to have a lumpectomy when HoneyBaby weans and was curious.
Due to my aforementioned blase attitude about my boobs, I am not dreading this at all, except for whatever pain might be associated. I might feel differently after it's all said and done, tho.
HP asked {{How noticable is the difference between the two boobs}}
HP, ask your doc how much s/he has to remove, lump and connecting tissue.
W's origional cancer lump was pea size. The surgon said he wanted to remove the lump plus the connecting material 10mm all around the lump, so a ball about 30mm / 35mm across was removed. 24/25mm is about an inch.
I do not know W cup size so can't say she was a AB and went to AA on one side. I can say she is at least 30% on one side. Also what is left of her breast is not symmetrical or shaped exactly like a smaller breast. There is a divot indentation that is noticeable. With the lights off and I rub her back ( of course my hands stray gently around to the front) they both feel good and I get excited. (this is where some of you ladies can say "pervert" and the rest of you HDW's that want more heat in the bedroom can say "way to go OG, you still have it in you")
Get your surgeon to assure you the stiches will not make your boob lopsided or puckered to one side. W wishes her suregon did a better stich job the first time. Ask the the doc to check your breast after it is stiched laying down and sitting, while you are out.
The surgeon offered to re-do it about 6 months after the procedure. W said it did not bother her that much. Asked the surgeon if she could swap his offer to do the re-do on the boob for varicose vein job and kind of laughed. W asked me if her lopsided boob bothered me. I said absolutely not. If it did not bother her, that is the only thing that counts.
W and I watched a breast surgery progam on Discovery Health channel. One woman had both breasts removed and a large tat-too instead of breast reconstruction. Also watched a couple of runners with DDD get reductions. Now that I would go for. These ladies were miserable before the surgery.
Now, does anyone know how to get hot sex from a very LD W, boobs or no boobs, that is the $64 question.

The size only matters to you. It really doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. If you are comfortable and feel sexy in your skin, then that will show on the outside.
This will sound terribly politically correct (certainly not normal for me), but it has been truth for me since I was a much younger man. The first thing I look at on a female is her face. The face tells all there is to know. I find that the form is much less important than the person and attitude.
MrsNOP has known for years that what I find attractive in other women is not beauty or flash, but an open face with the right attitude. MrsNOP is very beautiful (and stunningly built), but I fell for her the first time she looked at me. She wrecked my hardcore players lifestyle in about 5 seconds, and I have been all screwed up since :-)
