Is that not accurate?

Of course it's accurate. I was just ascertaining that you were actually referring to the scientific fact of the sentient homicidal breasts. You could just as easily have been alluding to the theory that large breasts are alien larvae implanted beneath female skin, or perhaps the slightly more far-fetched supposition that large breasts just want to write show tunes and dance in the rain.

Balls, on the other hand, are more likely to found Simon-and-Garfunkel-style acoustic duo.

I can see the logic of "small : sleep in bra :: large : no-bra in bed" since they each make better pillows that way (particularly if you assume a larger bra is more likely to have wires in it).

I do fully understand that you are a very young person with your whole life ahead of you. However, I sincerely hope that you will someday learn that the world is not a dating service designed to pick out your "soul mate" and plop him neatly down into your lap. Live a little. Have a conversation about something other than a boy. Learn to weave or cut down trees. Save a baby bird. Teach yourself to play the bones. Chase squirrels. Invent a new kind of pasta. Save the world from an alien invasion. Write a poem about a refrigerator. Accidentally fall through a magical portal into a realm made entirely of cheese. Just stop freaking obsessing about boys and makeup and clothes and thereby giving our entire gender a bad name. Boys and makeup and clothes are boring. They're BORING. They DON'T MATTER. How much time did you waste writing this quiz? How much time did I waste taking it? I just want to shake you violently back and forth until you stop believing it's okay to be empty-headed on purpose to impress teenage boys. I'm going to go destroy the hopes and dreams of undergraduates now. Do not contact me again until you have had a single original thought. That is all.

HA! Kemmy FTW!! :D

It's not probing, no, but it's fun to consider how your character might approach such questions.

*DING!DING!DING!DING!DING!* Which is why I posted this. :)

You know, I'm finding it interesting how people are answering. It seems that the older and/or more experienced the responder, the more thoughtful and mature the response. April and Frieda are 23 and still in school, so I guess you can't expect anything overly insightful in their responses, especially if they're not putting a lot of thought in their answers.

Oh, yeah! I probably haven't started this active a thread since my "Steps In Overcoming Masterbation" thread on the woxy.com boards ( http://www.woxy.com/boards/showthread.php?t=25929 ). :wink:

And those better endowed, too, as Mrs. Bunny will tell you. All her bras are cloth as she doesn't like the underwire ones. They're just not comfortable, or something like that. I guess she been wearing wireless bras for so long she's used to the feel of them. I think she has one or two underwire ones somewhere where she tried to wear the more "traditional" style, but it never worked out.

Incidently, at night she also goes Irish (Erin go bra-less!), but she still needs that support for her girls. So she takes part of the top sheet and bunches it under her boobs. Which can be a problem for me as that usually means less covers for me at some point during the night, and I'm one of those who likes to be warm under a lot of covers (she likes things cold, I like 'em hot). :shucks:


More surveys! More surveys!

It does. Which is why good sports bras that will provide that support cost a bit more than a regular bra.

For a shitty comparison, imagine running with a backpack. If the backpack is light, it will mostly stay close to your body and not do too much moving on its own. As you add more weight, however, its momentum changes and you start to get the thing where the backpack is up while your body is down and vice versa. Now imagine if that backpack were made of your own dense fatty deposits and were connected to you by tender skin, and if instead of one backpack you had two attached to your chest.

not to mention the joys of cleavage sweat
