Today, I finally measured myself to find a properly fitted bra. I'm AAA, a size which doesn't technically exist. Goodbye self esteem. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to Victoria's Secret to get fitted for a new bra since mine weren't fitting properly. To my amazement, I wasn't a 32A, but a 32AA. I might as well have craters on my chest. FML
Today, I found my first bra and tried it on. It still fits. FML
Today, after much measuring with a tape measure, comparing with my sisters and even asking my husband for his opinion, I'm forced to admit that without a bra on, my boobs now sag so much my nipples hang down to the level of my belly button. FML
Today, I went to Victoria's Secret to buy a bra. A woman sized me and then gave me a bra to try on in the fitting room. To my pleasure, it seemed to fit well. The woman who had sized me came in to check on me and replied, "Yeah, it happens. Not everyone can be symmetrical." FML
Today, I took my mom to Victoria's Secret to help her find a bra. She made me try one on to see if it looked good on me. Turns out we have the same cup size. I'm a guy. FML
Today, I was ordering some clothes from Abercrombie online and I went to measure my bust to check what size I am in American. I got my measurement, checked what size it would be and the size of my bust was not even listed on the website. Great. Now even Abercrombie thinks I have small tits. FML
Today, I was at Target trying on swimsuits. I tried on a medium bottom and was so excited because it fit perfectly even though I've gained a few pounds. My self-esteem was at an all-time high until my mom told me I could never fit into a medium. I rechecked the tag. It was an extra large. FML
Today, after spending the night at my boyfriend's house, I was heading out the door when he called me back to hand me something I had left at his house a while ago. It was one of my bras. It wasn't until I got home I noticed the cup size was a B. I'm a size D. FML
Today, I was out shopping for bras. While in one store, I couldn't seem to find any in my size. When I asked an employee for help, they took one look at my chest and said, "Maybe you should try our girls' section, we have a lot of training bras." I'm 25. FML
Today, it's official, we measured. My boyfriend's manboobs are bigger than my breasts. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Please don't let the size of your **** define who you are; your personality is more important for a long term relationship. This would have sounded like bullshit to me a few years ago, but now, at 28 years old, and dying inside to have my first real girlfriend, I understand it. **** I feel old. But please, don't think you are less valuable as a human being because of your chest size. Please.

Whenever you think that big breasts must be better than little ones, ask yourself this question. What will a 25 year old woman have between her big **** when she is 80? Answer: Her belly button.

Most women with small breasts are very young and lean. I can almost guarantee that most of the women who have busts you admire and more body fat. You will probably soften and plump with age. Those people that defy this stereotype have often had breast augmentation. Where I live, I think about half the women have had it done. I knew one young women who was perfectly flat who modeled. My brought along a bag filled with boobs. She had A's, B's, and C's depending on what the photographer wanted and how the clothes fit. Of course, she could also go au natural for a high fashioned look.

I have no boobs too. People just don't get it. Our society tells us we aren't 'real women' without big boobs. This message is thrown at us from the time we're little kids...It's a lot deeper than a self esteem issue. People with big boobs will argue with us about how boobs suck...but they have no idea what it's like to grow up like this and feel inferior to the world.

Please do not feel down about your breast size. There are many men out there, like me, that actually prefer smaller ones.

I bet you're really cute, otherwise

I am sure there's a lot to like about you, so don't get bummed out about one detail. Just go with it and accept yourself as you are. You'll be just fine.

If that was your only source of self esteem...

On the plus side, no back problems from too heavy boobs squished into poorly fitting bras! More seriously, if it's that big of an issue, talk to your GP or GYN and see if they have any non-surgical recommendations, and if not, start saving up for breast implants. You could also try getting pregnant and see if that causes permanent growth, but that's more expensive than the surgery in the long term.

You'll probably fit into a C- I'm a 12AAA but juuuuust fit into a 12C

As a guy I love boobies big or small as long as they are real. Can I see yours?

If it makes you feel better I'm as flat as a board in the bra region. I went to a nice bra shop for a fitting, and was told, you don't need a bra, even if we they made bras that small you still wouldn't need it. And to add even more salt into the wound, the woman fitting me said, you wouldn't even fill a training bra for preteens. I've been self conscious of this ever since and just go for the cupless sports bras, that look like half a singlet. But you are more than your chest, that's not what's going to make you change the world - your brain, your kindness and personality are what will really leave a lasting impact in this world. So us flat chested women. Unite with every other woman and always know - your boobs will never define who you are and what your capable of. Chin up, you don't need enormous boobs to matter in this world =)
