Are women’s breasts getting too big?
That’s what one author is saying in a new book Breasts: A Natural and Unnatural History, Medical Daily reported. According to her research, author Florence Williams found that the average bra size for women in the U.S. has increased from 34 B to 36 C – a trend that Williams says isn’t as good as it sounds.
Williams outlines numerous unpleasant reasons that may be contributing to expanding bra sizes, such as women’s expanding waistlines – a factor that has been linked with increased risk of breast cancer.
Another culprit behind growing cups is early onset puberty, another precursor for breast cancer, Medical Daily said. According to a 2010 study in Pediatrics, 15 percent of American girls start to get breast tissue when they’re only seven years old.
Once a woman develops large breasts, she’s put at a greater risk of pollution exposure. Bigger breasts have a much higher concentration of fatty tissue, and according to Medical Daily, the body stores toxic chemicals in its fat cells. This means big breasts could be storing dangerous compounds such as mercury or chemicals found in pesticides and paints.
To make matters worse, the more these chemicals are stored in the breast tissue, the more likely they are to be transferred into a woman’s breast milk and passed along to her newborn children.

I love bobbiez. :drool:
I can see size having a effect on the back. There are some people I know with big boobs, who are always complaining about how their back hurts from all the top heavy weight.

That's why men need to be more supportive. Like Phillip de Brassiere, but more hands on.

My sister in law had to get breast reduction surgery because her mammaries were destroying her spine. Some merit to the article.

F*** you Florence Williams & f*** you Medical Daily. Somebody always has to poop in the punch bowl. Boobiezzzzzz

I had a breast reduction in 95'. I was looking at a 40 double "g" . At 4 foot 7 that didn't look or feel healthy. I had back aches like you wouldn't believe. the only downside, if one considered a downside is I couldn't nurse any children, which was fine by me.. now if I lose weight, I'm golden....

I would like to add something in here if I may.
My first wife was a DD when we met and gradually became a EE. She complained about back problems and such all the time. I understand that carrying extra weight on the front can cause you to bend at the back and that will cause back issues. What my first wife did not factor into her problem was that her waist had grown proportionally to her breasts.
When she went to our doctor to talk to him about this, he looked at her chart and her weight change. He told her that he was not surprised that her back was hurting considering she looked as if her activity level had gone down significantly and her core strength (abdomen) appeared to be a bit atrophied. His recommendation was that she first get off the couch and get outside more, strengthen her core, and come back to see him in 6 months. The goofy witch did just that (the only time she ever listened to common sense) and, voila, her back pain went away. Her cup size went back to a D/DD, but the exercise did a lot for her.
Ladies, what do you think? I know this is just one anecdotal example, but I am curious as to what you have to say.

Brest's serve just one purpose on all manuals, that to feed and secure the life of their child.
So why do men have Brest's, and feeding nipples ? You tell me, big breasts are just fat as a woman with a flat chest can feed a child and a woman with big Jugs is dry.
Interesting scientific study, Why does the fat gravitate to the Brest instead the thighs or ankles of woman?
Why do men need man bras, darn if this is not a bitch when a husband has bigger boobs then his wife.
Boobies are a call to the men that are in heat, looking for a woman that can insure their call to pass the DNA down.
LITTLE BOBBIES , feed the baby's, big boobs feed the men that are into sex gratification..

I have been told I am not to do any exercise because of my back. I am actually feeling ALOT better when I walk. I am thinking seriously about doing crunches even though they hurt to see if I can have those results like your wife. I am so desparate for the pain to stop. My exteme meds are even not doing what they did in the beginning. They actually upped me to 50mgs of Fentanyl yesterday, I was on 25mgs. I am scared I am going to be on this shit the rest of my life and I don't want that. I want to go a day without taking medicine or even a pill.

Completely agree! I have a coworker who is in the same boat but she refuses to listen to the doctor. I keep telling her to start out slowly and exercise and she'll lose some weight and it will greatly help.

A suggestion, I have severe lower back problems (S-1 through L-3) (VA 60%). Started swimming two years ago as that was about all that was left for exercise. It has helped a lot & I have no idea why. Currently only meds I'm on are Excedrin.

I think this is significant. Abdominal support is really important for a healthy back, as is good posture. I strongly believe in having a supportive bra, especially for working out. I pay about $60 for my sports bras because they are really good quality. Finding a "high impact" sport bra when you are busty is difficult, but so worth it if you plan to take up running or any other vigorous activity.
I'm a DD, and while I do need to lose weight, I've never had any serious back problems. I run at least 3 times a week and I really focus on upper body strength training to improve the muscles in my upper back.
As a side note, I lost 20 pounds about 5 years ago and actually went up a cup size. I was pretty excited :yahoo:

a very perky "c"
Oh Sea a friend of mine way back when had boobs that were different by 2 inches. Her Mom hand made, altered her bras so it was not noticeable.
When she was in late 20ies her larger breast expanded big time, other breast all so grew but not enough to even it out.
She finally went to a plastic surgeon to have them Match, went in for breast reconstruction and after the operation was told that she had 32 oz of cysts in one and 12 oz in the other. Non malignant at that time but 10 years down the road who knew.
She showed me the after operation with stitches still in and darn they took her down to a 32-B. Strange as they had to remove her nipples and sew them back on.
This suited her, she was 5' 4" and weighted about 104 pounds. First time as a grown woman she could wear clothing that were stylish and not huge.
Big difference in her, she now had much better posture and could wear sexy clothing. Total personality change in her, no longer did men look at her boobs, they now got to know her with her perkey 32 B's
.Strange as the Doctors told her she would never be able to breast feed again, but 5 years later she had a baby and the boobies worked, yup to her surprise and the doctors she flowed like a spigot.
Between you and me girl, men chase after the big boobed woman as a fantasies BUT when it comes to a wife it surprises me the men that will leave the boomers women to marry those with much less cleavage.
Perhaps the men can tell us why, the pros and cons of marring a over weight woman to marrying a woman of smaller perportions ????

Vesta, you really do have prejudice against women with larger breasts, don't you. :whatever: You seem to be convinced that men don't settle down with women over a B cup or so, and that those of us with larger breast just run around on out men anyways, and that we don't breast feed out children.
Seriously, at least try thinking before you post.

Thank you! I logged in to post the same exact thing.
As for all the other comments, I agree with you and wasp, CR. I think core and shoulder/upper body strength goes a long way to a healthier back(obviously not speaking for those with serious issues that now require more then that). I think women really get hit hard in the back problems because they shy away from weight training for fear of being bulky forgetting that #1 women aren't designed to bulk up in the order of things and that #2 given that it takes a lot of weight and maybe even eh-um drug manipulation to bulk up in the fashion women are afraid of.

Vesta's problem is she thinks too damn much. I honestly have no clue what goes through that mind of hers. She pimpslaps Occam back to the stone age every time she posts.

Nope, I have absolutely nothing against the BBG, Big Boobed Girls as I can emphasise with both the big and ittibittie girls having been both in my life.
My problem comes from the MEN that gives their wives and girlfriends the idea that they want them to alter their body to please them.
I have personally known and from friends and a few patients that an extreme surgery is going both ways.
Medical reasons, reconstruction of a breast due to Cancer, on to the vanity reconstructions that can go horribly wrong.
Boobs are what they are, when they get too large they may as my friend found to be full of cysts, weight may pull on the back and shoulders, then is the time to get something done for health reasons. These woman are not doing this to please their Man or find one, this is all health related.
Now for the 18 year old girls that subject themselves to body altering surgery for no reason related to health, this is a much more serious then getting a nose job or a chin implant.
C. Rose, My objection is for the woman that are healthy and cannot except themselves as they under go dangerous surgery not for themselves but for others. I am excusing plastic surgery as it is nothing compaired to having ones chest calved up and rearranged.
Lets turn this upside down here. Do woman expect a man to get implants to their upper body to appear to have a buff chest ? Say I have never heard about a woman sending their man to get some kind of surgical extention to his penis.
If this surgery were a walk in, walk out and woman could do so safely every 6 months to please their man---no problem. Problem comes when the woman meets the love of their life and they request they get rid of the boobies. ----------Darn men that say they love us will do so even if we have lost a leg or arm. Men that love us have more on the ball then checking out our bra size and brag about it at work.
Screw the men that lust for a woman for her looks, want to change them. ------- No woman needs to go through surgery, pain, and recovery for anyone else but themselves.
Men are men, the males in this forum are normal everyday men, they will walk into lamp posts checking out a female with boobies or a nice round butt. If they don't they are Gay. ------However how will they react to taking a woman out to dinner or a club when everyone is hitting on her, having a wife they are afraid to leave at home to go to work ????
Sometimes the Men are happier with a understated wife or girlfriend they do not have to worry about 24/7.
Sometimes the big sexy woman are manipulators as they know how men will react and they get off on it.
Ever know a woman that is drop dead gorgeous that complains she cannot get a date.

I agree with rebel. Vesta thinks too much. There was never any articulation in this thread that I recall of anyone saying a woman is under some pressure to super size. I sure sense a lot of misconceptions and disdain from you though towards women who are perfectly healthy and happened to be born with an ample bust. Let me turn this on you. Why should any woman here with big boobs have to cnform to your standard that seems to imply most women with big breasts are not taken seriously and probably are carrying 5 lb sacks of cysts. This a plank in the eye moment vesta since you were the one who started with a lot of presumptions. To read what you wrote. Paraphrasing here but men just **** the girls with big tits and set to wed some flat chested boy shaped female as a mate. It's really that black and white eh?
As an aside what difference is it to you if a man lusts after big boobs. What made you the arbiter of what any one person should find sexually appealing? Your posts are ridiculous in this regard. They really are.

I have some when I was young to more recent, fully clothed of course. Due to back pains and heat rashes that wouldn't heal or dry up, my little four foot seven inch frame couldn't take the upper weight...
It took 7 years for my doctor to even agree to it, before the initial consultation with other dr's. It was an emotional roller coaster for me. My family was very supportive all the way through. I feel more confident in bathing suits and buying clothes.
