My tits are like a 34G or something like that. I don’t know anymore because I don’t wear a bra, but I remember them being a G. I used to try to squeeze myself into DDD bras, the largest you can get in “straight” sizes, before realizing I had to pay for the expensive speciality bras for gigantic boobs. Then, around 5 years ago I stopped wearing bras altogether.
I have 36 FF boobs so obviously I relate very hard to this 😭😭😭 I will never forget at 24 when I had a job give me a gift card so I could buy “more professional clothes” (aka don’t wear v-necks that show off your cleavage even though they’d probably look normal on someone with a smaller chest). I like my big boobs but I don’t always want them to be sexualized
i was reading this like, have i EVER had an original experience?! 32F — when i was in middle school a boy called my boobs “inflatable” and i stood up and said he’d done that and the teacher sent ME out of class. later the teacher told me that someday that boy would want to date me and that i should be flattered. (???)
and so many parallels in queer world. i don’t feel feminine, but i end up wearing a lot of more feminine things or the things i wear are coded more feminine because of how i look.
Thank you for sharing this. #RelatableAF I've often felt that I never enjoyed my breasts as much as my partners did; that they're just kinda "there," making it difficult to buy clothing I like. And I have zero interest in children, so even pro-chest-feeding commentary about the reason they "actually" exist is very painful and dehumanizing to me.
I had a reduction this year because I genuinely struggled with my chest on a personal level—my breasts were very heavy and caused me physical pain.
But I also had so many negative experiences around having a large chest that was hypersexualized, and that profoundly shaped my relationship with my own body. After my reduction, I still have not-small breasts (36D), and have gotten “positive” comments about my new chest that have really made me wish I had them removed all together, because I had hoped that after reduction my breasts would NOT be noticeable enough to be commented on! On the other hand, I don’t know that I really want to have a top-surgery-flat chest, or if that feeling is more about my history of being traumatized by attention to my chest.
Thanks for sharing this Clementine, me and some amab folks read this as part of our efforts to deprogram. It helped a lot. I feel a lot of pain and anger for what you have had to suffer and continue to suffer.

Big feelings about this.
