I remember waiting for my boobs to grow in when I was 10. Every woman in my family has large breasts, so I thought mine would follow suit. Middle school came and went and all that arrived were two tiny little bee stings. Luckily for me, my breasts grew a little more in high school, but that was it. I had to learn to accept the fact that my A-cups were never going to get any bigger.
I was teased relentlessly by boys in high school. I remember one particular incident when as a senior, a scrawny little freshmen boy joked about their size on the school bus. Oh, memories. I even had some “friends” who asked me repeatedly if I was planning on getting a boob job when I was old enough.
But as the years have gone on, I realized that it is okay to have small breasts. Sure, I may not fill out a swimsuit as good as some well-endowed girls. But hey, that’s life.
I’ve also started to notice how painful some girls say having large breasts can be. I even know one girl who is scheduled to get breast reduction surgery. Who would have thought?
Are there any other small-chested Lovelyish readers out there like me? Have you ever been teased for your cup size?
guest
I can totally relate.
One boy in high school told me, “If only you had bigger boobs, you’d be the perfect woman.”
At least we can run more easily.
guest
My tits are quite large. No matter what I wear I get undesired attention for the mere fact that they exist. However I do love them, almost as much as my boyfriend does.
I’m just waiting for the expected waves of the members of the itty bitty titty committee to comment and bash girls with big breasts.
guest
I really want to know how many of the women that will woe-is-me on the comments of this post about being members of the Itty Bitty Titty Committee are the same ones that lol’d at the ‘bulges’ posts, but I’m way too tired and lazy to go back and compare.
Oh, and small boobs seem to be better to me (as someone who has no boobs). Seems like a lot less sagging to look forward to.
guest
@emotastic7@xanga - wow that was like, super insulting for him to say that x_x
i don’t really care about what size i am, to be honest. it is what it is.
guest
I like having little boobs. I run a lot, and so they don’t hit me in the face
guest
yeah, my AA’s pretty much suck. oh well. lol
guest
I like being small chested, I wouldn’t mind even if they were smaller than they are now (:
guest
I’m a 32B (thought I feel more like a 32A but those are too small on me), and very happy with it. My guy friends make fun of me ALL THE TIME for it. I’ve also gotten the “if only you had bigger boobs,” comment, @emotastic7@xanga. It’s whatever. I don’t care.
guest
@Grtt@xanga - The sagging used to be something I feared but I decided that working on my chest muscles to prevent it was better than being depressed over it.
guest
@emotastic7@xanga - @Amazon_Bunny@xanga - Sports bra.
guest
Mine are in the middle; just a handful. They’re not big and they’re not super small. I’m accepting because I have no choice and I would look weird with boobs that were too big for my body.
guest
I have small boobs and I’m happy with them. i don’t want HUGE boobs.
guest
Boobs are boobs.

I have small boobs and I’m not okay with them. Yet. I’m working on it by buying those “miraculous” victoria’s secret push up bras. I really can’t stand not looking good in certain dresses/tank tops.

I have a weird “relationship” with my boobs. I like them. I wear a 36D, which isn’t huge, and no where near small. But, they’re flat. It’s more like they have a “wide stance” and don’t stick out much. I have very broad shoulders so they have more room to lay down, so to say. It’s hard finding bras with under wires and seaming that I can fit them in. But when I do, HI BOOBS! So, they aren’t small and I DO like them, but it’s a pain to find a bra that meets their needs, haha.
But, all boobs are great. Wide boobs. Boobs that stick out a lot. Small boobs. Big boobs. They’re all fun to squeeze. (I’ve only squeezed my own, k? lol)
guest
I like my A’s. This guy told me I was as flat as an airplane landing strip a few years ago. LOL

@PinkLeopards@xanga - Mine are huge like yours and I do get attention but I severely dislike my boobs. I just sort of accept that they are there.
guest
i’m okay with my small boobs. my only wish is that i had average boobs or at least a little bigger because then i think finding a bra would be easier. it’s such a daunting task going bra shopping. gah! but other than that… i like my small boobs coz i can sleep on my stomach. hahaah
guest
I get teased playfully every now and then about being small chested. I’ve embraced it, so it’s not a huge deal.
Once, I think someone meant to insult me by saying, “YO. Why your boobs so small?” And I was like “… I weight 80 lbs. I would fall on my face if my boobs were any bigger.”Which is true. I’m small chested because my frame is small. Tall, but small.
I like being small chested. It doesn’t hurt that, according to my family members back in China, I’m one of the bustier members of my family. That’s CRAZINESS but it comforts me to know that I’m abnormal in the opposite way in my family. XD
guest
I was at a Phillies game when it was super hot and I was joking around that I was going to put “Sweating my tits off” because my friend was going to put “Sweating my balls off.” My other friend was like “Guess you don’t have to worry about losing much then, do you?” -___-
guest
I’ve got Cs and I’m neutral with it. Like…I personally think it looks reasonably proportional to my body, but I’d feel great if I could just say that I had D’s.
guest
I really love my boobs, i’m a 36 DD and it is true, your back might hurts if you don’t use the proper underwear. When i was young i was ashamed of my breast but with the years i’ve learned to love it.
guest
@yarnballs@xanga - It actually gets harder the bigger your boobs get to shop for bras.
guest
Living in a society that adores large breasts sucks, but only if you let it get to you. Through high school and early college, I was insecure about my breasts since I barely had any. Heck, even my mom kept suggesting that I get a boob job (how was I supposed to feel about that? My own mother telling me to get a boob job…). But I realized I love my body they way it is. I may be known as the stick thin girl with a flat chest, but I think I’m a beautiful stick thin girl with a flat chest
guest
I may not have huge boobs, but I have other physically appealing body parts of me
one of my friends has huge boobs, but she is still insecure about other parts of her body. in fact none of my body parts can be described as huge. I have a little of everything and combined, I think I’m quite proportional. some are attracted to me and some aren’t but might be attracted to my friends. people have different insecurities and preferences that they like and dislike about themselves and others.

I used to be a 34B and I liked them just fine. Then I gained and lost weight, right now I’m a 34DD and I like them just fine. I don’t like my belly though! lol
guest
I’m a 34AA — you won’t find that size in any regular store T___T I’m veryy jealous of girls with B and C cups haha!
guest
to be honest, i’m a 32C.. but they don’t look or feel like that. i’m not
happy with them. i wish they were a bit bigger n a litter fuller. i guess
i just like the ideal look… as shallow as that may sound, i feel so
ugly. maybe because i just see too many good looking girls.
guest
@x_spirit_of_time_x@xanga - me too!

I’m a 32C and I’m perfectly happy with my boobs.
guest
I went from A to B thanks to my birth control, but I’ve never been discontent with my breasts. They’re more of a handful now. I just checked. :p
guest
@x_spirit_of_time_x@xanga - same here. even to just be an A would be good enough. lol
guest
@just_me_trippin@xanga - I wish you wouldn’t feel ugly. A lot of the good looking girls you see probably get some help from Spanx and push up bras, I mean there’s a Victoria’s Secret bra that can enhance a woman’s chest two full cup sizes. Looks can be very deceiving. And from your picture, you look like a beautiful girl, so you needn’t feel less than that
guest
I have been teased relentlessly. I have always been the girl with all back and no front. I had a-cups up until i was a senior in high school, then fluttered between a and b. now that i am pregnant, my chest has become a full b, and i think that is where it has decided to stay. I had people tell me i should get a boob job so that guys have something to look at while i am walking toward them, and while i am walking away. Made me feel like crap back then. I had the smallest boobs out of all of my close friends. it sucked, but i learned to love the body i had, and realized that while i always had more guy friends, at least it wasnt because they just wanted to stare at my body (partially due to the fact that i wore hoodies all of the time). I was the curvy girl with no boobs. And I love being the curvy girl with no boobs. Someone will appriciate me for me.
guest
@MoonCity@xanga - My mom also makes comments to me about getting a boob job. But it’s like, hello, which side of the family do you think I got these little bee stings from? :/
I wouldn’t want huge boobs, but I want boobs bigger than the A-cup I am now. I think I would be content with B-cups.
guest
I’m a small-chested girl, and
I never will understand people who uses the fact that I’m flat as some kind of insult.
To me it’s just a statement of the fact.
It’s like telling a burnette, “your hair is burnette.” Way to go, captain obvious, you get a gooold starr!
but seriously, i don’t let it bother me because I’m comfrotable with the way I look :]
guest
I’m an A cup and I have to admit, yes there are times where I wish my boobs were bigger (such as when I’m swimsuit shopping and it’s hard to find tops that fit right…) but for the most part, I’m satisfied with them. I believe that your confidence in yourself is much more prominent and speaks louder to other people than a full rack does.
guest
@just_me_trippin@xanga - What I’ve found out over the years is that the girls who look “perfect” are not, in fact, truly perfect. A lot of people out there also feel insecure and find ways of faking it so that they achieve this ideal look that society expects. So you’re not alone, but just try to keep in mind that a lot of it is just an illusion
guest
I actually am really glad I’m a B cup, I love them this small because they’re proportionate to my small frame and also i just would hate guys staring at just my boobs if they were bigger whenever they would talk to me
guest
I’m with you, girl! I love my 34B boobs. They’re extremely perky and nicely shaped. I look awesome with and without a bra on. All of my friends that have large breasts complain that their backs hurt, that running hurts, and sometimes that boys only like them for their tits. I don’t have any of those problems. Guys like my small, perky boobs and they don’t cause me any pain so… I like them.
I think all breasts are beautiful! Small, large, somewhere in between. Perky, lopsidded. Whatever! We need to embrace our bodies, ladies. I do. I know porn has shown us that there is only one type of beautiful - fake nails, fake hair, fake big boobs, tans, being really skinny, fake eyelashes, big lips… Those things can be beautiful, yes, but they aren’t the only features that are.
guest
I’m a 34F. I’m hoping they’ll go back to D’s (or even C’s!!! D:) when I lose about ten pounds. Fifteen would be nice too, I guess. All of my weight goes into my thighs and chest =_=
daisy / 543 posts
Good for you. I really don’t understand the huge obsession women have with the size of their chest anyways. No matter what size they are, if you have bags of fat protruding from your chest, they are still breasts. That rhymed and I didn’t even mean it to.
sunflower / 453 posts
I like having smaller boobs too. People will often sort of assume you must be insecure about it, but I really appreciate that I can buy a 10 dollar bra and it will fit me well- bigger boobs often require real legit hardware underneath. And lots of money spent on said bras.
On the other hand, my boobs have shrunk again. It’s definitely weird to be in a like reversing aging process when it comes to my chest- you realize how much “a part of you” you feel like it is, until it’s not quite the same. The first time they shrunk I was like YEAH! COOL I LIKE THIS because I had always been trying to hide them when they were a 36C. Which is like average, but I just… I don’t know! Didn’t like that on me. And so then they were a 36B/34C, which was nice, easy to find in a store. But then they went to 36A/34B, and now I’m like, “Okay now, that’s enough guys. THAT’S ENOUGH FOR NOW” Goddamn I hate having to buy new bras just because the old ones have awkward gaps in between the material and my boobs… and when before I wore sports bras to flatten myself a bit, I’m now perfectly okay with my bras having a little bit of padding…
#first world problems I guess, though, haha. Minor inconvenience
guest
I have the opposite problem. I’m teased by friends because of my D-cup boobs. According to them, it’s an anomaly for an Asian woman to have a large bust. What? Asian women can’t have big boobs?
rose / 853 posts
Yeah, I got teased for it, but only in middle school. By high school, my friends were teasing me about how skinny I was and attributed my small boobs to that. I slightly dislike how disproportionate they are too my height and hips and butt, but whatever. Usually, I love them. I’ve been this size since I was 14 and I’m almost 21 now. I’ve gotten used to it.
guest
Never go with boob jobs. It’s so unnatural! It’s fake and people that do it are only kidding themselves because it’s not them. Be proud of who you are! It’s unfortunate that those people made fun of you for it, and it was very wrong. I have a toothpick which kind of bothers me, but I shouldn’t compare myself to others and if I were to eventually have a wife, I wouldn’t want her to have size be one of the reasons for loving me, you know? “People will hate you, rate you, break you and shake you. How strong you stand is what makes you.” You’re doing great!!
guest
It’s funny that people always comment on ”HUGE” my boobs are but they’re not that big. Maybe for my height and frame but I can’t really do anything about it (these are definitely one of my genetic gifts). And I’ve never really understood this obsession with breasts. Yes, they’re nice but what’s the big deal? Small, big, whatever-they are all breasts. Enjoy what you have!
guest
As long as you’ve got a shapely butt, boobs matter very little. =P

I’m a 32B and I love them. Big boobs aren’t everything. I get more attention for my smaller ones than my C and D cup friends do.
ranunculus / 3457 posts
I have C cups now, was a B cup all my life. I hate them. They’re very uncomfortable. I don’t wanna know how D cups feel.
guest
I think everybody but me went to a completely vicious high school. All I hear about is people being made fun of… for everything. Man, I was skinny, had teeny boobs, ridiculously long arms and legs, was very pale, quiet, a bookworm, bad skin, not well-known among any group… and everyone just left me alone. For real. All of my high school angst was in my head. Am I really the only one?
guest
I’m a 34A, but I just wear push-up bras to feel a bit fuller and look better in certain shirts. At least I know when guys hit on me (and it happens quite often) that it’s not because I have a big rack.
Just know that big tits doesn’t equal beauty. There may be a lot of beautiful big chested women out there, but there are also a lot of beautiful small chested women.
All of these actresses are A cups:
Alexis Bledel
Audrey Hepburn
Calista Flockhart
Kate Hudson
Juliette Binoche
Debra Messing
Kate Moss
Keira Knightly
Lara Flynn Boyle
Mena Suvari
Milla Jovovich

@writemyheartt@xanga - The Miraculous push-up bras are crazy!! They have MEGA padding. I’m a C cup and I tried one on and quite frankly I thought I looked ridiculous! Maybe that’s just because I’m used to how I normally look and I put that one and it was like “BAM, now I have huge freakin knockers.” I thought it looked totally obvious that a lot of it was padding, but maybe it would not be that obvious to other people, idk.
dahlia / 2103 posts
I think it’s all about proportion. In HS I was really overweight and carried weight in my midriff mostly, but only had A cup boobs. That is pretty much the worst body type to have. It sucked a lot. Then I lost about 70 pounds and stayed at a small A-cup; I could still buy bras in the girls’ section. Then I gained it alllll back and shot up to a B-C-ish, and now I lost 50 again but still have C-cup boobs. In fact they have actually gotten a little bigger. I didn’t mind when I was an A and thin, but I prefer the shape of my body more now. Boobs are nice in all shapes and sizes, but I’ve always tried to try to draw the attention to my face first. Boobs are 2nd place in my book (though my fiance might not agree).
guest
i have Cs right now but let me tell you, its more the shape they have that disappoints me. theyre like two siblings having a fued.

Last night, I was playing an online game with my guy friends and they were talking about one of our 19 year old high school classmates having a boob job. The guy who told us was supposed to keep it a secret so I said “Tsk, secrets, secrets.” Then out of nowhere he says “Shut up Lily, you’re a size A” and I got REALLY mad. Then I remembered this post and stopped by. Sigh. I don’t worry about my breast size. Just about how I can secretly erase that guy from the planet.
guest
I’m totally okay with it. I can wear lower-cut shirts than most girls and it doesn’t look skanky because there’s no cleavage
guest
I’m actually going to be a senior in high school and, though I don’t really get teased, I don’t get looked at. Which I guess is kind of good in a way, but I would like to feel more… Feminine.
But that’s what special bras are for. I have one that makes me a B. Still on the smaller side, but I like it better than my A’s.
Bring on the false advertisement.
hydrangea / 71 posts
I have B’s, but honestly I’m content with that! If anyone is concerned about it from guys’ point of view, so many guy friends say that whatever size is fine!
guest
I just want to say that I am the OPPOSITE of you (writer). At age 11, I had 34Ds and by 14, I had 34DDs which have remained for my whole life. In 7th grade – high school, I was teased by boys about my large chest. I can clearly recall sitting in 8th grade science and having a group of boys trying to get me to balance large objects on my chest (including men’s sized shoes). I felt like having a chest was looked down upon, especially because I was a super skinny girl with a giant chest.
Even in high school, I was teased – but more by the girls than the boys. Maybe it was jealously, I don’t know. They cracked jokes because I needed a bra + sports bra to go running. I was always irritated by it and never knew how to respond.
About the time I hit college – people of both sexes began to appreciate my chest. By that time, I’d come to hate it. And I still hate it. They get in the way, they ache, they get sore, they’re a total pain. I’ve considered breast reductions often but just don’t think it’s worth it. Finding bras sucks as well because clothing stores think all skinny girls are flat and all fat women have big chests. I’m skinny and have a large chest – so finding bras is a PAIN!
So ya know – it sucks whether your boobs are A’s or DD’s. Maybe a C-cup can chime in and say if they have the best of both worlds lol!

I like girls with small boobs. small boobs usually have better nips than large ones imo.
guest
I have small breasts as well; I used to critique my whole body and the most prominent “flaw” that I emphasized were the smallness of my boobs.
But, honestly, they’re natural and a part of my wonderful body. I’ve learned to accept them and my entire physical being. It is SO EMPOWERING to be comfortable in your own skin.
guest
YES. <33.
Sometimes I still wonder how my chest hasn’t grown since I was 13 (21 now). But such is life. I used to be teased a bit…but never by guys.
I guess the biggest thing to get used to now that I’ve gained weight is body proportion. It always seems if I eat too much or drink or bloat, I look so big..because there’s no boobies to offset it. It’s annoying..but it’s another reason why I work out to keep my core tight, and pectoral muscles larger.
In the end, there’s no sag,stretch marks, pain/soreness, excess jiggle and ogling I have to worry about. So I’ll take that, and I ‘ll keep my petite boobies. Screw these media driven body images.

I have large breasts and I’m okay with it.
daisy / 505 posts
@WaitingToShrug@xanga - No, haha, I was really awkward looking for half of high school and everybody left me alone. With 2,500 students it was dumb to separate into groups and tease. Now, middle school…oh god, that was a different story! The kids were vicious there.
I had boobs before most other people so in middle school I was teased a little, and then grabbed at in Spanish when the teacher wasn’t looking (always)…and then wore only baggy sweatshirts even in the summer. It was fun. I had a good time.
guest
Eh, I have medium sized boobs. normally 34B. Well, I am pregnant and going to breastfeed so they are probably going to be Cs in a little bit. But after I was done breastfeeding my first my breasts got smaller and I liked them alot better. I am going to miss those boobs.
I actually prefer small breasts to the size I have now. Its like they are there but they arent enough or something. But small boobs are? I dont know. Boobs are weird.
guest
Mine are smallish. And I’m okay with that. I see no reason to get all up in arms about breast size. Big ones can be nice, and small ones can be nice. That’s all there is to it.
guest
@xKateElizabethx@xanga - I wear a 34B now, but before I lost a little weight in college, I wore a 34C. It wasn’t easy finding bras that fit me, since my boobs were kinda large for my body type. I can’t imagine how difficult it is at a 34DD. My sister’s a 34D, and she has a hard enough time already! I strongly feel that big boobies and small boobies are equally nice, but if yours cause you that much pain and discomfort, a breast reduction might be worth the trouble in the long run.
guest
@emotastic7@xanga - *snrk* you shoulda told him he’d be the perfect guy if only he wasn’t a shallow asshole.
guest
On my mom’s side every girl won’t have boobs until they pop out a kid. My mom’s a medium B while my older sister who’s still a virgin has a 38C.
I have a 38A and I get teased for it within’ the family. They say I should go on medication so it boosts my female hormones but I’m chill with small breast.
guest
Glad you seem to love your body as it is
I’m actually one of the more endowed among my cousins and they envy me for it, but actually my chest made me self conscious for the longest time which of course, did wonders for my self confidence /endsarcasm. They’re not huge, but they’re not A cups either – and it’s true, they’re such a pain to run with lol.
guest
A large breast size always give the appearance of a woman looking larger than they actually are. Those with a chest size large enough that they can not see their feet are in convenience I’m sure. I can’t even imagine the hassle of trying to find a bra that actually gives support. You don’t have to be a big girl to have a big chest but I’ve noticed that the women with large chests (and perhaps ample bottoms) are extremely sexually active. i don’t even know where that comes from. There’s nothing wrong with a smaller breast size. The issue lies with society and the issue that bigger is better in some aspects. Women are beautiful creatures either way. Now men with large breasts I’m not sure…
guest
I’m 4’10 with 34 Ds. I use to be a 34 B/C, but having two kids has changed that.They are fuller and better looking now.
guest
I have tiny A cups, and I’m fine with it. They will sag less when I’m older!
guest
Like you every woman in my family is big breasted. I am the one who was not blessed. The reason being that I am not is because my breast tissue is underdeveloped…bummer!! Not only was I not blessed with a nice set, because of the lack of breast tissue I cannot produce enough breast milk for my babies so I have to supplement with formula. I will be having implants done within the next few years because even though my boobs are small with breastfeeding they have sagged and it just looks like I have absolutely nothing.
peony / 1 posts
I could not have said it better myself. I am an A cup and have learned to live with it. I have the hardest time finding shirts that fit properly. They will fit everywhere except my chest. As a result, I have had to succumb to the evil push up bra a few times. Oh well, life goes on.
guest
I wish my boobs were a little bit bigger, but not only that I just wish they were a prettier shape, they’re just kind of odd looking to me. :/
guest
I want to HAVE small boobs!! I have a C and a B right now and they make me angry…I know if I loose the weight I’ll have (most likely) A cups. Which I will L-O-V-E!! <3
guest
i have d’s and they can be a pain im pregnant at the moment so i cant even begin to imagine whats going to happen in a few months lol. I had a friend in high school who had triple E’s or something crazy like that they gave her severe back pain and were making her spine bend to compensate, so after she had saved enough she got them reduced to C’s when she turned 18 now she loves them!
guest
i love my small breasts, no pain, i can get into t-shirts and stuff earlier, and less wanted attention from the boys. ahh, life is grand! took me a while to appreciate them, but now i’m happy with my body!
guest
Sometimes I wish I have average or at least A cups. I am an AA or even less and it’s really hard to buy bras here (Note Aerie doesnt have AA in their stores) so I buy most of my bras from Asia. Sometimes I just wish I am an A or B so that makes buying bras AND bikinis/swimsuits easier. It’s hard to find a swim top that fits an AA.
guest
The only reason I wouldn’t be okay with having small boobs is that if they were any smaller, I would look like one of those girls whose tummy is bigger than their tits. And that is NOT a good look (for anyone)
But yeah, you’re right. They’re lovely, but a pain in the ass.

I can’t even fit into an A cup (I wear pushup bras that are a size A and they fit like a regular bra, they do no pushing up), and I’ve been made fun of all my life for it, but I am becoming more accepting of myself, because I can’t change what I’ve got. If my chest grows, that’s fine, if it doesn’t, that’s also fine. There are benefits of having a smaller chest, just like there seem to be benefits of having a bigger chest. I just don’t understand why chest size matters so much.

@xJanicexJLx@xanga - If there’s a La Senza around where you live, you should check there! I get my bras from there, because (I said it in my last post as well) size A push up bras fit me like an actual bra, since they don’t seem to make bras small enough (besides kids bras, which just fit awkwardly). La Senza is the only place I can get my bras haha. So if there’s any in your area and you haven’t already checked there, I recommend that you do.

Mine are a B and they’re seriously big enough for me, they’re hecka annoying when I try to run anywhere.

I absolutely love my small breasts. It means I never have to wear a bra and don’t have to worry about any back pain or problems when exercising. You don’t have to have big boobs to be cute or pretty. I can still seduce men in a club since I’m comfortable with who I am and know how to work it.
guest
I’m honestly glad that I am the way I am, small boobs and all. It’s not like I’m scrawny. It’s genetic, so I embrace it. Plus, push up bras nowadays can work wonders.
