[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone here pointed out that after your 20s, larger breasts age you. It's hard to explain how, but when I tried on a shirt with a padded pushup bra and a regular light bra, the extra boob size definitely made me look older. It's subtle but there was a difference. So throw out the miracle bras or, if you're bustier, go for a smoothing sports bra style.[/quote]

I know people are upset about this one, but it's true.[b] I think people are upset because they know it's true.[/b] Very large breasts look matronly after a certain age. The word "bosom" comes to mind.

It's a trade off. Women who get a lot of attention for their boobs in their youth wind up looking grandmotherly faster because of those boobs. Women who with small boobs get to look youthful a little longer. I feel like it kind of balances out in the end.[/quote]

Well, yeah. You're talking about a physical attribute that people don't really have control over and ascribing a negative attribute to it. And of course it's based on male perceptions of the worth of women. So it's offensive and upsetting.

If I said I think curly hair makes you look mentally ill people would rightly find that offensive. I realize this is an anonymous forum so you don't care, but you kind of suck.[/quote]

Nobody is saying “large boobs look bad.” The point was that you might want to consider wearing minimizing bras instead of bras that emphasize or boost. That’s all. [/quote]

Do you even know how a minimizing bra makes your breasts look?  I know some women prefer them for comfort, and that's fine, of course, but the results don't make anyone more attractive.  [/quote]
