Now I have a question. How is cup size determined? As i mentioned i have good size man boobs and have had many comments pointed my way as a youth. I have finally taken measurements. I assume top is measured under breasts, so 38 waist 32 and i believe hips are 38 but wasn't sure where to measure that. My breasts are more than a handful, but my hands are only a med. mans.

I think the fruit analogy is pretty common.  A = lemons, B = oranges, C = grapefruits, D = cantaloupes.  Sounds like maybe 38C?

For the cup size:


1. Measure loosely around the fullest part of your bust, with the tape straight across and around your back, bringing it to the front.

2. Subtract your band measurement (from step 1) from this bust measurement. The difference calculates your bra size- each inch represents a cup size. For example, if you measure a 34 inch band size, and a 36 inch cup size, the difference is 2: which would indicate a B cup.

Well it seems from both analyes I am a 38C. Now about the hips? Are they measured on top or middle of the butt.

for a woman it's generally in the middle. However, since height and male physiology comes into play, my advice is to try the clothing on before buying them.

Well I guess I'm going with 38C-32-38. The 38c is rather embarassing as a man, but i love it as a female!
