Title: Breasts and Breast Size
Post by: Jennie on July 07, 2011, 04:18:50 AM
Hi everyone, I wanted to get all your thought on breasts.
If you had the chance to choose your size what would it be and why?
I personally would choose an A-B cup I would think a full B would be the largest I would want to go, I feel that with my body size and frame the A-B would "B"  :) perfect.  I also think if they were too much bigger then they would get in the way of my active lifestyle and then there is that thing about gravity and the long term effects it has on boobs :(
Any way let me know what you girls think.  Aloha nui loa.

Hi Jennie,
Glad that you are sounding happier.

Boob size is one of those things most woman cannot choose, except by surgery. When on HRT the 'general' rule is that you will be a size smaller than your sister or mum.

I'm thinking very hard about getting my pathetic puppies into a C cup, as that seems to look ok on my body. But boob size is one of those weird concepts that no one will ever agree on. No matter what gender they are. Guys will tell you that any more than a handful is a waste and then stare at a girl with big breasts. Girls will say they are happy with B's and keep wearing push up bras, with enhances in place.

See what develops and our usual choice is to enhance or leave alone.  I don;t think many TG girls complain about too much development.

Hi Cindy, I am feeling better now, thanks :)
I know that we can not control breast size I was just asking this questions as if we could have it our way, what would we choose and why :) 
Aloha.

Good on you my friend.

I would like about C's, the size looks good on me (in my opinion). One of my sisters in law has FFs which have already been reduced but grew back and she has a bad back and hates them. They just look monstrous. She cannot lie on her tummy.

Is the volcano having a new eruption? is it the past vent that  has become active again? Sorry to intrude but we stayed in Hilo twice just to visit  Kilauea, loved the place and the people.

Hi Cindy, no problem at all, never an intrusion, infact I make a great tour guid if you should ever find yourself in Hawaii again.
I was watching the nice red glow in the night sky the other night from the Puu Oo vent from the Kilauea volovano, it has opened up a bit below teh Puu Oo vent and it looks very neat, you can see a river of lava pouring into a big crack in the ground.
Yes Kilauea is still going for well over 20 years now non stop.  Aloha.

Thanks Jennie'

I loved Hilo. I think it was Sam's Place ? Where everyone seemed to eat.  We where at a rather run down hotel on the water front. Looking out to sea on the right hand side, the last hotel on the block as I remember
Sadly my wife is now so disabled from an accident we can never travel (together) again. But when she dies (and no I'm not being morbid), Cindy is going to travel and meet so many of my fantastic friends from all around the world.

Love and Kisses to an Hawaiian Princess,

Cindy

HRT has blessed me with a pair of B almost C cups and I am rather content with that as most of my bras are B cup and the girls tend to look bubbly in them and I don't have allot of money to invest in new bras right now  :laugh:

I've always been liked the idea of a B~, don't really want anything massive.

Post by: justmeinoz on July 07, 2011, 06:02:23 AM
Being tall (6'3"), and having broad shoulders I would be happiest with a C I think.   Just a matter of waiting now, after 3 months HRT there is a bit of a "jiggle" if I bounce up and down! Looks great!

I'm going to have my work cut out just looking like my boobs are the same cup size, once they grow (a missing right pectoral is going to make this unpredictable!), so "how big" is the least of my worries ::). I'm also 6'3" medium build, no idea what to expect (except slow progress at my age). I'd prefer smaller to larger, but might have to play around with customised bras to make them match in any case.

Post by: JadeS on July 07, 2011, 06:36:54 AM
my ribcage only being 28" (not counting the boobs i have now), I'd be pretty happy with anything from B to C, I don't need anything more since my chest is small
Title: Re: Breasts and Breast Size
Post by: Janet_Girl on July 07, 2011, 09:08:34 AM
Just thought I would add my little opinion.  I am a B, but for me personally, I would settle for a D.  I would just like to have some cleavage.
Title: Re: Breasts and Breast Size
Post by: A on July 07, 2011, 01:46:02 PM
What I would truly love would be to have a body small and feminine enough to undoubtedly pass with A cups. I wouldn't mind being flat-chested. But with my current body, uhm... I would guess B or C cups would be necessary to outweigh my rib cage...

Post by: Vicky on July 07, 2011, 07:09:40 PM
Currently (at 2 years HRT) a "B" cup, which with some left over breast enhancers from my CD days, I can get nicely into a C cup that de-emphasizes what remains of my beer belly.  Negative 40 pounds from where I am, my B kids may look great with just a push up bra which is my favorite when I am not using the enhancers.  A TG girlfriend got implants to be a C about the time I started my E, and then (not my fault), she had another growth spurt and is thinking about getting her E's reduced.  Careful of what you wish for!!!

Hi, a bit lost with all these cup sizes ONLY being mentioned and no band size.

Surely I'm not the only one aware that cup size ain't cup size when considering different band-sizes?

I'm a 38A-sub not all A cups are small enough, ->-bleeped-<-e. If I were a 36 band I'd be a good size A-B and going to 34 close to a B-C.
Now take that up to 40 (surly some of us are just that) there's no A cup I ever seen in any shop ever, and a 40B is one big size breast, honey. Ok there are 40D, DD, E, F, G? but PLEASE! you gotta have on hugh can (bottom)  to match these - else you get clocked all the time.

So, without quoting your band-size all them cups don't make for a lot of information 'fraid.

I take a 20C at the moment, but have to use an extender, so probably a 22 C.

I saw a 24G yesterday, left me  traumatised!!!

Title: Re: Breasts and Breast Size
Post by: AbraCadabra on July 08, 2011, 04:37:25 AM
Karen, 20!?
what size is that now? Can't be inches as in a 38(") band, an Aussi size?
"Every day another miracle..."

Unless you now gonna tell me you wear size 20 pants or what? We all have heard of men's 34 ~= girls ~32 but 20...?
Would you know the equivalent for most of the rest of us?

At least the cup sizes A - G are a known entitty (misspelling on purpose, heehee)

Great! I dont have a chance then. my Mum is an AA. lol
But she is a tiny lady. I'm 5'5 and taller than her. and wider.

One of the lucky ones, with 16D Aus (38D) from HRT.  All I can say is thank goodness I didn't rush into implants or god knows what size I would be now.  Also this is more than my mother so the old adage of ending up a cup size smaller than your mother doesn't always occur.
Title: Re: Breasts and Breast Size
Post by: AbraCadabra on July 08, 2011, 07:01:59 AM
Dinky_Di, how long on HRT to come to that? You didn't say.

My mum was a 34D or DD, her sister about the same if not an E. Her grand children from her son, one had a breast reduction she was so "loaded" and two of the others from different mothers, not noticeably big herself, also have rather large breasts (with reason to complain - they think).

Maybe there's still some hope for me at my age?
Time will tell, and THANK YOU for sharing this. It will make it easier to hang ten... :-)

When I've thought about this in the past, my answer is I want at least a full (I'm 34) A cup, I would like a full B, and I don't want anything bigger than a full C.

To be fair, I'm pretty petite, I think even a C might look too big on my body. *shrug* Even at my size, I don't think an A would give me any cleavage, so B it is here I come! ;D

Well, my mom's an A, but her mother was over D, all of her sisters are over D, and my sister (who I'm built like) is a C.  After 7 months HRT, I'm only about halfway filling an A.  It's kind of disheartening compared to the development I hear about from others at this point... hoping I turn out more like all the women in my family who aren't my mother.

Only 7 months Zoe? That's way too early to tell  :)  Granted, I was excited with every small change and growth spurt... It is only after soon approaching the 2 year mark that I am really getting a grasp of it all... and I understand most gals develop for at least 5 years

Don't be discouraged  :)  it just takes time

Thanks, Virginia! :)  I keep forgetting about that little thing called patience.  My doc said I had very good development, but then I hear stories of people who have so much more at this point and I get discouraged (especially when I swear I could still walk out in public shirtless and nobody would think twice).

My mum is quite overweight, She's a DD-E ish, My sister is thinner than me and is a C-D ish. I myself after 18 months have a Small B large A. I started growing after a few weeks of HRT but my growth curve is so flat (Pardon pun). Still getting very slowly bigger I think. Which is odd because I'm used to begin flat chested.

I only noticed that I'm getting very slowly bigger because friends I don't see for 6 months remark on it about how my breasts are noticeably bigger than the last time they saw me. Whitich is an odd sensation.

Overall I would like to be a large B-C ish but I don't really care that much as long as it's between A-D

Gosh girls i think you miss understood i dont want huge boobs i mean i am only 5'5.5" i am simply worried that i will get because my mom is A GG cup and my gran was G so it seems huge breasts are in the family and i would rather not go beyond a C cup. And i already practice a lot of stuff i am planning to go full the day or month after i finish school next year. But thanks for replying so quick :D :D :D :D :D :D much appreciated

Post by: Neko on July 14, 2011, 11:02:54 AM
The truth is you really don't get to choose, but anything over a c cup without surgical aid is very unusual (and if you do get over that it may point at a possible latent intersex condition).

Me, I'm currently at a 34C (uk size) after just under a year of HRT

im a 5' 7"  and have a small frame. long time ago i tot of this qn too and tot i'd be very lucky if i could reach a full B cup

the gals in my family are rather well endowed, grandma and mum are D-cup and my younger sis shld be reaching a D-cup soon.

by some stroke of luck i've grown to a C-cup and havent had any changes for almost a yr so i presume im pretty much done in terms of breast growth. my bf likes it of course, since he thinks theres so much more he could fondle me this way and i like it the way he cuddles me sometimes and cups my breasts gently, it makes me feel so girlish at times  ;D

for me, breast size is not smtg i can control, but im satisfied with my breasts. just that i need better support for my breasts when i do outdoor activities and theres no way i can run with a regular bra on

No, because for a start there are quite a few intersex conditions that don't involve ambiguous genitalia and while getting over a C tends not to be the norm, breast size on it's own it's not a criteria for diagnosis. It merely suggests that a latent intersex condition may be a possibility.

I really wouldn't worry too much about your boobs, chances are you won't be that large, unless of course you have C cup boobies after 6 months.

Steady growth over the time from memory except for the odd spurt now and then.  It's a bit hard to remember actually how things went as things changed gradually over time.  The records I kept on the changes seem to show a steady increase in size over time.  However, there is also a decrease in size above and below the breast which also goes towards an increase in breast size.

I'm 50 years old, 5'7" tall, 240 lbs, and have been under medically supervised HRT just over 1yr. I self medicated for several years prior with glandulars and herbals which brought me to a 38A. My hormones are finally within normal female ranges and I'm growing at a rapid rate with no signs of letting up. I currently wear a 42C which is a cup larger than my mother's 42B. I've always had broad shoulders and a large ribcage, even before gaining weight, and this combined with being obese now makes my C-cups look relatively small. I don't know how big I want to get, but if my growth continues as it has in the past year my doctor says I may realistically be looking at having D or DD breasts.

One point of concern for me and my doctor is that I've put on nearly 50 pounds in the past year. She said if I didn't lose any weight before my next visit, which is next week, that she'd set me up with a nutritionist to help me manage my weight. She says I'll likely lose some size in my breasts as my weight comes off, but she thinks I'll still end up well endowed.

I am a  full 40C.  My mom was 36C and my sister a 38C.

My figure at 5'11" is 40C-32-38 which is rather male except for breast size C.

I would like 38D-28-38 but I do not think it will be easy to change this old body.
