When Smaller May Be Better

Throughout the years, there has been a common conception that when it comes to the breasts, bigger is better. Many women who are naturally small opt for breast augmentation to increase the size of their breasts; however, there are many women on the opposite side: women who are “blessed” with overly large breasts and want to decrease the size of their busts. Women with naturally big breasts understand that bigger is not always ideal. With a larger size comes many difficulties and the knowledge that while you can “stuff” a bra, you cannot take it away, unless, of course, you consider breast reduction.

The Realities of Overly Large Breasts

Causes Physical Discomfort

The added weight of overly large breasts puts strain on multiple areas of the body: the back, shoulders, neck, and chest itself. From a young age, women with large breasts have a clear understanding of lower back and shoulder pain, the cause of which is the added weight of the breasts. This pain makes many activities difficult, if not impossible. Exercising, playing sports, and sometimes even performing household chores causes pain and discomfort. While many young girls and women search for the most colorful, delicate, and feminine bras, those girls and women with larger breasts can only be concerned with one thing: how supportive the bra is.

Hinders Confidence

Even more than the pain and discomfort is the damage that large breasts can have on a woman’s confidence, especially when they’re young. Many women with overly large breasts develop early, which allows for an extended time in school where they can be bullied and set apart because of the size of their breasts. Unfortunately, this is a situation that doesn’t end with school; instead, it is a constant occurrence throughout life. Many large-busted women feel like they need to hide their breasts and their true selves.

Unable to Find Proper Fitting Clothing

Most big-breasted women can relate to the experience of finding that perfect dress only to see that it fits every area of their body perfectly except for one. This is, unfortunately, a common occurrence. Whether it’s dresses, shirts, or bathing suits, finding clothes that fit is hard, and it can lead to feelings that your body type is wrong or doesn’t fit in with everyone else.
