A female United Kingdom age 26-29, *ell-help writes:

i am 15 and have small bust, one of my friend (girl in the group who i get along with less) keeps taking the piss out of the size of my bust and was laughing about me when a lad said 'she'll never be able to feed a baby...', it got me down and my other friends told me to egnor her so i got on with it and just let it pass.

since then on one of my lessons a group of freind who i sit with in that class started talking about bra size, then one of them turned around and said what size are you jodie, i was just going to reply and she interupted 'A?' and i just felt about like this ;/ to be honest and this week its happened again with another girl who is big busted.

the first person who said it i got a little upset but let it slide because i was just finally starting to find a little confedence in my body, but after the last to its just thrown me back to were i used to be, and my question is after all of this, is bra size that important?

and, do men like bigger?

i spose i shouldn't feel so down about what people say but i feel so repulsed when i see my body, im quite a athletic build so i have a slightly muscly belly not loads though and my legs at the top are a little to big

but i guess you get what your given right?

It is not the size that matters. If she has big tits she has to deal with the back pains while u laugh at her. As for feeding babies when u get pregnant they wil l grow and fill with milk. As for me being male. I prefer big breasts but i wont pass on small ones because i know they wont be offered again

LazyGuy agony auntAs for feeding, you know cows have huge udders right? Wrong, only when they are producing milk, there are rest periods between and then it is flat.

All mammals are flat, except human beings. So, you can forget about your breast size meaning you can't properly breastfeed in the future. They will do fine. Oh and they tend to grow in any case.

And no not all men like big breasts. Why is it women so easily claim men only want the slender women on the catwalks who have a-cups and then claim men don't want women with a-cups?

It sounds trite but it is true. You should want someone who loves you, not the size of your tits. Because if you find someone who wants them small, what are you going to do when they get bigger with a kid or two?

Your body is as it is and that is just fine. You are also a teen and so you are worried sick about it being fine. That is normal, just don't let it ruin your life.

Bra size DOES matter. Some men like em big. Some lie em small. Some like the middle ranges.

All men have different tastes so please don't shove men into a single basket as if there is some magical breats size that gets every guy hot. There is none. Because no two men are completely alike.

The one common factor is every guy will have sex with a woman if she is confident and likeable and reasonably attractive in the face. Thats it. Thats all a woman needs. The rest is just icing on the cake, and we guys like different icing.

Kids your age are so cruel and their words hurt, but try to brush it off and ignore them. They're just doing it because they are insecure with their own bodies. Boob size shouldn't matter, and any guy who judges you based on your cup size isn't worth your time either. That being said, there are advantages to being small busted which include: Being able to wear a lower cut shirt without looking trashy, bigger chests can lead to back pain, and as you get older, there is less noticeable sagging, so yours won't be down around your waist!! Be proud of what you have, and don't listen to those bullies!!

Lola1 agony auntI was taunted about my breast size when I was young, too, except I had "ample" bosom. Teens are instinctive (and somewhat stupid) creatures (present company excluded, I am sure).

They may taunt you because you have a smaller waist size than some of them and they perceive you as a threat. They probably taunt you because you have a prettier face and they want to "bring you down a notch" in the eyes of boys they want to like them more than you.

Feel free to let any "friends" know that you do not appreciate their comments or have a couple of one-liners ready for those you do not actually see as friends, but who are more acquaintances. Something like, “I won’t need to breast-feed. I’ll be so rich I can afford a wet nurse,” or at least I will be able to find someone who will want to make babies with me.”

Laugh yourself; do not allow these people to know it gets to you. If you giggle and have a one-liner or two ready, they will think it doesn’t bother you and will stop.

Good luck.

In fact thin girls with smaller breasts are much more attractive.also when you get pregnant and have babies your breasts will naturally get bigger as they are filled with milk.you have nothing to worry about.

SirenaBlusera agony auntHey well-help,

I was just reading Yahoo news, and they have this article about the three sexiest men of the year. One of them is Brad Pitt. Some of the regulars on this page know this, but I think Brad Pitt is revolting.

It just proves that sexy is all relative.

There's nothing wrong with having a small chest... I'm saying that rest assured that there are plenty of people who prefer it because tastes are so diverse.

I was a 'A' cup all through my teens.I am barely a B now.I have had babies and successfully breastfed them too.My guy never bothers with other women.I give up things for my man and make sure I am not a bitch.That is the most attractive thing in a girl-to be a genuinely nice person.Most of the guys wouldn't even bother with what kind of boobs you have of you are KIND.KINDNESS makes the person pretty.

If big boobs are all that mattered in a relationship no big breasted woman would be single.Clearly that is not the case.Ignore them.Jealous girls are not even worth your time.Live your life to the fullest by pursuing something worthwhile.Maybe you are much better than your friend in many other ways.So she is probably very jealous.The only way to handle this would be not to get affected.Be confident.Start loving yourself.

I am male and bra size does not matter. No matter what your friends say, it really doesn't. They tease you to feel better about themselves. They will be unhappy with their bodies, too.

Friends who tease you aren't friends at all. Like the other answer said stay confident and positive in who you are. Know your own worth, you are at an age where you can do anything you want with your life.

Some girls are late developers also so you may end up having the last laugh. Stay strong.

SirenaBlusera agony auntEveryone your age has something they feel self-conscious about.

I got taunted about having double joints. It doesn't bother me, I was grateful to be illness-free and not crippled. Sadly so many people are not so fortunate.

You're fine the way you are.

SirenaBlusera agony auntThat boy that taunted you is ignorant.

Breast milk comes from the milk glands, which are the same size in ALL women.

A VERY small-chested woman can nurse her babies just as well as Dolly Parton.

Your friend, Jodie, is very rude. Tell her that "I might have lost weight in my chest, but at least I didn't lose 10 pounds from my brain, like YOU did, Jodie."

When you're older, you could have surgery if you wanted it, but you're fine the way you are. Not ALL men prefer bigger, unless they're married to Dolly Parton. Many don't really care.

Blod agony auntGrr. I know exactly where you're coming from. I'm the same.

In the past, I'd even go as far as saying that I've been discriminated it because my bust could almost be considered non-existent.

When I was a teenager I got so many comments, especially when I was about your age. My friends once had the horrid bra size chat and I remember this one guy even telling me that he would pay for me to get a boob job as he felt so sorry for me. It did knock my confidence and made me feel unsure of myself but it gets better. Trust me.

A male reader, CaringGuy United Kingdom +, writes (18 November 2009):

No, bra size doesn't really matter. Not to decent people. And no, not all men prefer bigger. Some do, some don't depending on the guy. and in all honesty, there is more to a woman than her breast size. Keep having confidence in your body. Confidence is what matters, not size. As for the others, who cares what they think of you. You're better than them and you should know it. The lads are immature losers who haven't any idea how to treat a woman at all, and that 'friend' of yours is someone you could do without. Stay confident in yourself. Your body isn't done yet, it still has some growing to do, so don't let them get you down. Be proud.
