Pix of my chest when I was early teens

After reading all your comments all l want to do is hug each one of you. We all wanted to be  accepted as we developed into the unique people we are today but most of our parents just did not understand. In my case I tried my best to play the role given to me by them, but little pieces of who I am just kept shining through.

I believe that sometimes we share more here with our friends because we feel more accepted here than anywhere else.

So big hugs to you all.

I like that Charli.  I can see some of those pieces shining through here.

  Hug back at ya.

That was beautiful, Charli. Talk about poetic. 

I am grateful to all here for being non judgmental and having empathy. I have shared some things that a lot of people might wrinkle their noses at, look down on,  make fun of, ostracize for.  Here I have only seen acceptance and support

So size wise, its weird like everyone else. 


Again, 44 inch band and 50 inch bust.  But I barely fill a B cup.

Taxmapper,  Have you tried underwire bras? They tend to gather up all the loose flash on your chest and put it in your bra cup

i am allmost the same 46 /50. I dont know about you mine seem to be wider than projecting. rigt now I mostly wear sports bras, 2x i find that if i wear number bras i dont quite fill them outI stepped down to al smaller cup size and it is better but still a little loose in the cup. debating fillers or those chicken filets some have talked about. underwire dose thou make a difference at least for me

[taxmapper]

I have 1 underwire at this time and it doesnt fit well.   

I have thought about a fitting, but just not really up to it right now. 

so I continue with the SB. 



On that note, I am braless today and not really regretting, but realizing just how much larger they are now.   A bit of discomfort.

The first time that I went bra shopping with my mother, I felt, at the time, that I was given permission to enter the lingerie department at JCPENNEY. I remember that I had always been fascinated with it but, I wasn't allowed. My mother was with me and she had my back. As I look back on that day, the SA who fitted me thought I was I was a tomboy. I had long hair that my sister had taught me how to take care of. I had a 34C chest as well. I couldn't believe that after I had picked out the bras that I wanted, she had asked us if I needed panties as well! I remember not knowing what to say, looking at my mother. She didn't fully support the idea but told me to get what I wanted because I was the one who was going to be wearing them. Well, I never wore boys underwear again.

I have been wearing panties for many years.  This past week was the first time that as I bought a new Wacoal bra  I bought the matching panties.  I have to say I like it.

It's interesting (and maybe sad) how hurtful things stay with you for a lifetime. I can vividly remember a boy in my class telling me I needed to wear a bra. This was 58 years ago. I remember the infamous shirts vs. skins in junior high gym class. I can really empathize with many of your stories here. I don't have a photo from back then, but I'm sure I looked very much like your pic.
