A Booby Monday

  It's Monday, so let's talk about boobs.

   A couple of weeks ago I was having a beer with some male friends and the topic of boobs came up.  I cannot remember why, but wow, what varying opinions.  I just assumed guys were the bigger the better, but that is so not true.  Now, I have not been overly blessed in this area.  Don't get me wrong, they are fabulous, just not big.  As I tell everyone, B definitely stands for beautiful.  Anyway, back to my conversation. I asked the guys around the table what they liked.  Each one had a different opinion.  One said the bigger the better(of course), one was very specific, as in race, fake, etc, and the other said more than a handful is way too much.  I guess guys really put some thought into this topic so they should know.  Believe it or not, this totally changed of how I feel about mine.  I have always been jealous of the girls with the big boobs.  As a teen, I kept waiting for mine to grow and fill out that training bra, but alas, they started and then just stopped.  I had big ones while I was pregnant(loved them!), but as soon as I was done breastfeeding, they shrunk back to their original size.  Now, over the years I have thought about  implants, but I could not justify the expense or the fact that I truly believe we are made the way we are supposed to be made, imperfections and all.  Plus, I am a big promoter of a healthy body image, so I am not a fan of plastic surgery.  I have lots of friends who have them, but they are not for me and more power to them.  The majority of them look (and feel) fantastic.  I also started looking at before and after pictures and realized that hey, mine are not that bad.  But as a boob obsessed society, I still feel a little deprived in this area.  I went bra shopping yesterday(a task I hate) because it really makes me self conscience.  But, I ended up finding some super cute and comfortable ones and realized I needed to count my blessings instead.  For us small breasted women we can wear all the cute styles.  We do not need tons of materials and fasteners to keep our girls in place and happy.  I can fit in just about any style bikini top and clothing top without having to worry about over spill.  I can run without pain.  I do not have back pain.  As a mid 40's woman, I never have to worry about sagging.  That's right, my girls are still fabulously perky.  And last but not least, my hubby thinks they are fantastic and at the end of the day, he really is the one who pays the most attention to them, so if he is happy then why should I complain.  So, ladies, regardless of your size, embrace them and be happy with what you have.


Hugs!
