Reply to: Super sized bras!!

[NotAllThere]

Mrs Nat has put on a few pounds lately, and is getting a bit stressed about it. However, the extra pounds are in exactly the right place, so I don't know what the fuss is about.

I'm sure that some of the extra weight does go into making the breasts bigger.

You really need to go to a specialist shop like Rigby and Peller or Bravissimo.

I don't really trust the high street peeps. Even M&S is supposed to have a dedicated person in their shops and they often haven't a clue what they are doing.

Women who use department and independent stores tend to be on the larger side according to what I've found out and been told from a friend of mine who worked in an independent department store. (She was not trained enough to be a fitter on her own.)

Money for big agri business, such as Monsanto, that's why!

Essentially it's down to the hormones, such as bST, they are giving to cows, goats, etc.. to increase their milk yield. About 20% of lactating cows now receive this tulip to make them give more milk.

These hormones are getting into the food supply, and hence into humans. Processing does not remove it! (and it's a hormone, so you'd only need a very small amount to get through to have an effect anyway)

The 'scientific consensus' is that it doesn't result in reducing sperm count in men and produce bigger breasts on women.

Why they would think that is a complete mystery to anyone with any knowledge of mammalian hormones.

But that is this modern 'scientific consensus' lunacy for you.

There may be a correlation with the increase in the popularity of plastic surgery (check out Jordan - enormous fun bumps, but I've seen more fat on a chip)

Or maybe larger chested women are the result of natural selection?

Or a little independant shop in the suburbs...

And a dress cut down to there?

Lola,
I was just wondering if I could ask you a couple of questions, are you a showgirl by any chance ?
and do you wear yellow feathers in your hair ?

Dim or Sas?

It is really immature for men to carry on about ladies breasts and bra size. I don’t understand the infatuation with a woman’s pair of firm breasts with silky smooth skin and nipples like bullets, even if they are palpitating on a heaving warm body.

It is and, I dont understand it either.

No sireebob!

Rigby and Peller

I've seen some large numbers on our shared credit card from there. It's all good though

[Bagpuss]

Or get measured up by a scaffolding company?

[norrahe]

50% of one and 50% of the other.

One of the main things not mentioned in the story is lots of women wear the wrong size bra and have been wearing the wrong size of years.

Unfortunately some of the favourite high street underwear retailers have staff who can't measure bras correctly so lots of women when they go to a department store like Selfridges or John Lewis suddenly find they are wearing the wrong size.

Is this because UK women are just getting fatter or are titties really getting bigger while bodies remain slimmer?

Selfridges has taken the decision to stock the supersize bra after seeing a surge in sales of lingerie in larger sizes.

Purchases of bras for those with D to G cups have risen by 50 per cent year-on-year since 2005, and now account for one in four bra purchases, the store said.
