bra problems?

Question

Ok, so apparently I'm supposed to be a size 32 C...and i fit into size C bras...

however

people say my boobs do not look big enough to be Cs?

This is very frustrating...i always get comments like oh well you might be a b but your not a C because so and so's a C and her boobs look bigger...etc...

i hate being accused as a liar, because I'm not actually lying.

do any other girls out there have this problem? or does anyone have any advice...

Answer 1

Hi!

Honestly, the jealous little cats... If people started talking to me like that, I'd dot their eyes and tell them if anything is "big" in this equation, I'd hazard to guess it's their mouths... But that's me...
First, in visuals, there are conical breasts, and round breasts, firm breasts, and soft breasts. All of them "appear" very different in size even though all are actually the same cup size. Oh, and the size of your rib cage makes a big visual difference... Dolly Pardon is only a "B" cup, but she is so tiny you could sneeze her right off the ground. Bottom line, looks don't mean damned thing. What should matter to you, is fit, comfort, and health.
If you are athletic, it's entirely possible that you are a "C" size, but your breast's fibrous tissue is denser and firmer than that of someone who is less athletic, or, who is older. If you're a half-size, that can make a difference too. Also, different makes and styles of bras fit differently, so you may be one size in a padded or Wonder bra, and a different size in a sheer lace.
A "32" measurement is not your beast, but your ribcage, and it automatically indicates that you are a petite lady. "C" sized breasts on such a small frame WILL give you serious back problems in the near future, so please ask your doctor to check your spinal alignment and range of motion during your yearly physical. If you catch these things early, you'll save yourself a world of suffering down the road, I promise you. Also, as the large busted ladies on my ranch figured out fast, bind your breasts snug, though not too tight, for heavy physical activity. I've had a number of ladies come out of a half-hour horseback riding session literally beaten black and blue by their own breasts. they laughed latter, but at the time it hurt a lot! A long ace bandage always works in a pinch, and can actually be more comfortable than a bra in some situations.
I hope I've been of some help, and please, you should enjoy, rather than worry over, your curves. In the end, we all get older, and you'll look back on these times quite a bit latter on. Let those memories be happy ones. Make the most of it right now, and don't sweat the small talk from big mouths.

Answer 2

As the inches in your bra go up, the cups get a little larger. because you obviously have a small waist, your cups will look smaller than say a 38 C, even though you are both C cups.

I don't have this problem because I have more hips than boobs, but as far as other people are concerned it's really none of their business and you should not feel any need to defend your bra size or any other size to to anyone. are you tumbling out of your bra? is your bra way to big for you? if the answer is no then tell anyone that calls you a liar to kick rocks.

Answer 3

A lot of women are wearing the wrong bra sizes these days. If you got measured and were told you're a C, then that's what size you should be wearing (in that brand). It's possible that "so and so" is wearing the wrong bra size! It's also possible that some people have breasts that stick out more or they have smaller bodies in comparison to their chests so they may look bigger, but no matter. If you feel comfortable in a C and you were told my someone in a store that measured you that you are a C then no worries!

Be comfortable with who you are! It doesn't matter what other people say! :)

Answer 4

i am sorry, I don't discuss my bra size with others. That is for me to know only. and I could care less what others think or feel about whatever size they feel I should be. If the girls look good in whatever size I am measured to be, and I find a great bra, who really cares but me?

There is absolutely no way one can tell what size or cup you need to be in unless you are measured. the letter size only tells you how far back under your under arm your boob starts. It doesn't really say much of anything else.

Answer 5

Whoa, sister, who's looking at your boobs? And who knows more than you what size is best for you?! Don't let what others say bother you. C's are not that big, they are average. What is small is the 32. So you probably have a nice hour glass figure, and this may inspire some jealousy. I sure wish I were a 32! Kudos for you! Just work it girl!

Answer 6

Tell them to get measured because they're probably wearing too big of a band size and too small of a cup size! (It's true, most women do). But just brush it off, I think it's strange that there's so much conversation about your boobs..

Also, wear a push up bra and laugh it off when they say you're a B. Ask them if they want to see your bra label?

Answer 7

Breasts are shaped differently - some jut out more, some are broader & rounder. Cup size cannot be discerned by looking so don't worry about it. Also, many women are wearing the wrong bra size so are misinformed.

Here are 2 links so you can check your size: http://www.blooberry.com/bformfaq/measure.html
http://teenfashion.about.com/od/teenstylebasics/ht/howtomeasurebra.htm

Don't discuss your bra size or argue about it. You know the truth. People fuss about such things for many reasons - insecurity, ignorance, etc.

If someone brings it up - just say off handedly that you've been measured & it works for you. Gently suggest they go get measured to check if they are curious or refer them to one of the sites above.

Answer 8

i began wearing a bra even as i became 9 and that i began with events bras. I infrequently had some thing then and it became tremendous. attempt no longer to get a good one...per chance one it really is somewhat vast. And once you positioned on one for awhile you receives used to it. merely dont positioned on events bras to lengthy once you start up truly getting cup sizes becuase it should be undesirable for you style.

Answer 9

i think that a "C" can also be like a 38 B or somthing. there are large and small C's. bra sizes are confusing. theres the cup size...then the band size

Answer 10

Just be comfortable with who you are and what you wear. Perhaps you did not wear your bra properly. To wear a brabend slightly downwards when u hook it, then put your right hand in the left breast & 'push up' the flesh in the right-upwards direction. & vice versa for the other breast
