I agree with dfdf.

I think to be an actress, a C cup might get you ahead of most and you can still be considered a "good girl" actress and available for any role. So you will generally see a lot of women get implants to achieve this, like Kate Hudson. D cups are borderline too big for most mainstream actresses. And DD is definitely too big - so actresses like Jennifer Connelly, Mimi Rogers, Katherine Heigl and Drew Barrymore either get them reduced or starve themselves into smaller cup sizes so they will not be typecast into bimbo roles.

this is true. For all the movies pumping out of hollywood, it's actors, especially actress are not a reflection on how an average female looks. If you're not a young Caucasian, skinny, average breasted woman prepare to get typecast. That's exactly what your seeing seeing with Christiana Hendricks. Oh sure whenever there's a red capret event she's usually a bullet point to talk about because her body is so different and desirable, but as far as roles go, it's barren. She gets the typical the two dimensional fem fetal (to be fair made her career) or sexpot role. It's gonna be hard for her to break out as figure is both an advantage and liabilty as far as getting that blockbuster role

Outside of Hollywood you can just about add 1 or 2 cups sizes before you get into what the normal mob mentality considers obscene or too big. I think depending on a woman's frame, F and G cups are just plain big and will get the attention of most guys and be openly lusted after - like September Carrino. I think once you get beyond that or if the woman is a BBW or light plumper, a lot of guys wouldn't openly admit they are attracted to her, unless (maybe if) they were in a strip club atmosphere - maybe. So yeah, most J, K, L cups are going to be considered obscene, or guys afraid of being typecast as weird will loudly proclaim the woman is fat or disgusting no matter what her body type. Assholes.

There are a lot of factors to consider. A BBW with huge breasts just simply isn't going to be considered attractive by most men because her breasts do not give her a voluptus hourglass figure. Also lets not forget the unfortunate sterotype of fat people being obsese, lazy or slobbish, all feature that are unattractive to most males. Your average male is simply going to mark the woman as fat rather than care for her bust size

That would be a good point except that you don't sexualize height.

The difference is that it is socially acceptable for women to openly desire a tall guy. It's sexualized but not something that has to be covered up or can't be openly expressed. Try saying a guy's preference for large breasted women is fundamentally no different than a woman's preference for a tall guy and see what happens... the man is some sort of deviant but the woman is perfectly normal and allowed to discriminate in who she dates by height.

It is hard not to think that having an awesome rack would be a major positive defining force in a woman's life.
Because no matter what happens to you, for richer or for poorer, there you still are with those amazing knockers that strike lust into the heart of every man (and many women).
You could make a list of the ten most desirable people you have ever seen, and go seduce them all with your incredible chest.
If you're having a bad hair day, you don't have to worry because your zeppelin-like boobs are the ultimate modifier and they still add a +10 to your charisma wherever you go.

Yes, I understand some people don't find big breasts attractive (I do not trust those people).
Yes, I understand clothes are not made with busty women in mind (but we don't tell athletic people to get a muscle reduction).
Yes, I understand woman get uneasy with too much public breast attention (but we don't tell a woman with a pretty face to scar herself to reduce stares).

Any negative aspects one can drum up seem to pale in comparison to the simple fact that: BIG TITS OVERSHADOW EVERYTHING! (including feet and toes).

I wish I had a charmed life. That just is not so. Maybe after I get my implants I will have a charmed life. I will let you know.

You can't say that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages without walking a mile in our shoes. Having big breasts means constantly being judged for your chest. Having people constantly looking down at your boobs and assuming you aren't intelligent because you have a big rack. The clothing industry refuses to cater to women with our measurements. I'm so sick of wearing a woman's 2x which hangs all over me like a blanket and is straining in the chest.

The shop won't alter the clothes? 

I have an ex-gf with a small waist and a butt bigger than J-Lo.  As expected, any pants big enough to fit around her butt would be way too big for her waist.  But for around $15-$20, the shops would measure her and alter the pants to bring in the waist.  Surely they can do something similar for your tops; buy the top to fit your chest and have them bring in the waist. Although it typically will mean waiting a few days before you have them ready to wear.

That is part of the reason I make all of my own clothing. Gloves,shirts,dresses,pants,backpack,hats,coats Anything that can be sewn except for bra's. I have yet to make bra's. That way I can have clothing that fits me. and it costs a lot less to make my own clothing. Hard to find shirts that fit my boobs are not giant in the waist. Who are they making clothing for? I like things to fit very snug. so when I do buy pants they tend to be to big in the waist and to long. So I hem them shorter so the ankle is not dragging on the ground and I take them in to fit better.  I hate low rise pants. They just do not feel right as if they are going to fall down if I move the wrong way.LoL

Backaches, neck aches, headaches and poor posture. I don't care how fit you are...it happens. Period.

I know one busty woman who doesn't suffer from this:  cherri.

Conversely, I knew a woman about 7-8 years ago who told me she used to be a G-cup "boobs on a stick" back in high school, and subsequently got a reduction.  (She wanted to be a C-cup, but her surgeon took her to a B-cup.)  When I knew her, she was no longer the "stick" (the pendulum had swung the other way) and was still about a B-cup.  Prior to the surgery, she complained about constant back pain.  Years after the fact when I knew her, she still suffered from back pain.  My guess is it was bad posture, learned early on from having had the big boobs at one time.  Whether the learned behaviour was due to gravity or due to wanting to appear less busty (or both) makes me wonder how many busty women could alleviate back pain through a deliberate change in posture habits.  (This might be helped/hindered by the (im)properly fitting bra, I'm sure.)

I will add that cherri can't jog/run because of her boobs.  If she does treadmill time, it's a long but brisk walk.  If she wants to kick it up any, she has to use the elliptical.

If I were to hazard a guess, I would say that busty women typically don't end up as Olympic swimmers, most likely due to the drag their boobs create in the water.  And the busty triathlete would likely only fare reasonably well during the bike riding portion of the race.

One vote for "not so charmed".

The older I get, the more I notice that few women are satisfied with the way they look. Big boobed women want to fit in more tailored clothes. Small busted women long to get stared at for their bodies. Pretty women imagine some sort of imperfection that no one else can see. Women that are smart and self confident with themselves will always draw my attention regardless of their bodies ( but I do notice busty gals first).

Very well said.

[MasterDragonfly]

Mr. Fife - 4 of the 6 women you mentioned had surgery(ies) specifically to build and enhance their careers in their particular fields. Whether or not they were initially doing it for the love of big boobs, the end result remains the same. May I also remind you that the latter two have careers in film/television, and there are hundreds more women in that field that are equally if not more popular than they ever have or will be. Furthermore, popularity here does not make it real everywhere else. I'm a fan of all these women myself, but I am not misguided into believing that all that glitters is gold.

Good call re Pam Anderson, for sure.  Some years ago when the word "got out" that she got yet another boobjob to get smaller implants, I have to wonder whether she really did so, or whether that was just some PR spin doctoring to help convince people that she was no longer quite as busty as before.  That combined with some creative dressing down would have been sufficient.  "Look at me, I've got 'smaller boobs', I'm a serious actress now!"

As I catch up on this thread, I'm starting to realize there seem to be 2 distinct conversations going on:

1. Do Big-Breasted Women Lead a Charmed Life?

and

2. Do Big-Breasted Women Lead a Charmed Life in jobs which celebrate women's bodies?

You know two women who do not suffer from that. I am number two.

Lisa, your body is just about as perfect as they come now. Why do you feel the need to get implants?

(My apologies to my BE brethren out there who have never felt boobs were big enough.)

Because I want a breast lift and that can take away some size. The implants will offset that. I want both because I want my breasts to be perky when not wearing a bra. so the over all look will just be more round and plump with out the pushing up of a bra 24/7.

[gmantwo]

Personally, I like gals boobs to sag naturally as they age. I know women tend to like things to stay "perky," but there is a lot to say about the rounder look too.

Well looking flat and saggy is not attractive to me. That is not attractive and it hurts to have them. I do not want smaller breasts. Just a different shape of breast. They do not look or feel good out of the bra. I can't wear the type of clothing I want with out wearing two bra's at a time to keep my boobs in place. That is a bit painful for me at times.

With the lift and implants I will be able to wear what I want and I wont have to wear two bra's all the time to look put together. I will be able to wear a bikini or bathing suit finally. Can't do that with sloppy boobs that only stay put and look sexy and hot if you wear two bra's tightened to the max.

This is about what I want a like for my body. plus it looks better in photos and video and after I get my lift and implants I will be making more videos and taking a lot of photos in a lot less clothing. I am way to young to have saggy grandma boobs. Even when I get to that age I want to still look as sexy as I can.
