Ladies, deny it or not, we all know we love our boobs. They really do a number of things for us such as, providing our newborn babies with milk, they accentuate our clothing, they help hold our belongings (such as phones, credit cards, keys, etc), and they help us get out of speeding tickets (granted they're used the correct way). But there's also those of us that have exceptionally ample breasts and because they're of a different size, there comes struggles for us.
1. Boob Sweat
If your boobs are anything like mine (and mine being of the DDD family), you tend to sweat and it only gets worse during the summer time, especially with high heat and humidity. Doctors stress that we have to keep the area under our boobs dry because yeast can build up and it's just not fun for anyone.
2. Back Pain
This is actually a common and legitimate issue when it comes to having large boobs. Usually sizes above a D cup are the most at risk for upper back pain. This is also one of the main reasons that women who have naturally large breasts seek breast reduction surgery, to alleviate the pain that they have. Actress Ariel Winter from "Modern Family" came out when her breast reduction scars were visible at the 2016 SAG awards by tweeting that the scars were apart of her and that she refused to cover them.
3. Horrible Tenderness
That's basically what it feels like for us; like a football being thrown at our chest. It's even worse when we have our periods. Everything hurts and nothings the same ever again.
4. Spending more money on a bra than someone with an A,B, or C cup
Of course, Victoria Secret bras are sexy, cute, gorgeous and can be down right comfortable. But when you have large breasts, this isn't an option. You end up having to go to places such as Soma, Lane Bryant, Torrid, Walmart where you can sometimes pay more than an average cup size. Sometimes you don't have that option of having a cute bra, you have to settle for basic colors in a grandma style. But if you decide to shop at Victoria Secret, they only run up to a size DD, and if you're anything beyond that, they have "sister sizes".
5. Unwanted attention from men
While some people might think that we enjoy guys staring at our boobs, or love the attention that comes with it, the unwanted attention really makes us uncomfortable and so does the constant cat calls.
6. Spillage
Sometimes you think you have the right bra with enough support to hold the girls. Sometimes, you're very very wrong. Katy feels my pain.
(Also, avoid wearing corsets if possible. The girls will just roam free after that)
7. Most shirts fit awkwardly
Not even just shirts, just everything over all is too tight or if you end up getting a button down shirt, you have that AWESOME gap in between the buttons where everyone can see what bra you're wearing.
8. Wearing 2 sports bras to the gym
And those of us that do enjoy working out either have to get a wonderful, fantastic sports bra that buckles our girls down and wont let them move OR you wear 2 sports bras. Either way you suffer not breathing correctly, your back cramping up because you're standing/sitting up straight, and so much boob sweat.
9. Food Catchers
Oh no, it's okay. It's not like I wanted to eat that cupcake. In fact, why don't I just throw my entire meal down my bra since it can't seem to make it's way into my mouth for me to consume. Nope, it just decides to gravitate down my bra.
10. There's no such thing as wearing a padded bra
Oh, I'm sorry. You wanted to wear a padded bra with DDD boobs? Yeah, not happening! Wear that and you might as well just be giving everyone a free show since they'll be spilling out everywhere
11. Weapons of Mass Distruction
I'm not lying when I say that I literally smacked a person in the face with my boob. It was a total accident and that's what happens when the girls aren't securely strapped down. The become a weapon of mass distruction
But at the end of the day, you're blessed with a body part that you learn to love and you use it to your advantage.
WORK WITH WHAT YOU GOT GIRL!
