I would never have admitted this a year ago... but now....  I kind of welcome the moderate projections when they occur.  Of course, not being a 'G' cup helps.  Darker clothing with little or no pattern seems to 'project' less, but  A seatbelt shoulder strap passing between my little hills doesn't bother me in the least - even when on amusement park rides.  I believe it is all about what we consider 'normal.'

The more we try to hide them, the more they make their presence known.
I would have to agree with you.  I'm only a C cup but do enjoy having a bit show from time to time.  Just knowing they are there, real and natures gift and its way of helping me evolve into the best me I can be.

This is a good and healthy way to feel about them, "nature's gift." 
I'm finally starting to realize this in adulthood. When you're a young man being teased about your chest and made to feel ashamed, it's hard to see your own breasts as anything but a burden. But they're part of my body, whether I like it or not. And the fact is they look a lot nicer in an attractive bra. So whenever I put mine on, I look at my boobs in the mirror and admire them for a bit. If I feel good about them, it doesn't matter as much what others think.

I don't think about them as a general rule.  I just live my life and accept the fact that some body movements are going to feel a little different.  I notice that walking is a little different (improved posture) and reaching above my head requires a little more attention to detail ..else.. some major adjustments have to be made after the movement.

(Try to keep the upward motion of the upper arm to a minimum - given the circumstances- or the band tends to ride up a bit.)

I find that the more someone tries to hide something, the more visible it becomes.  Act like nothing is different, and people will believe it.

Acceptance of my full 36B breasts has gotten to the point where in summer I dress normally with a sleeveless tank top out shopping or with my GF. 

Not a spaghetti strap type mind you just the typical tank no bra especially since my preferences in a bra are pretty fem/frilly/lacy/floral types :-) 

I don't think I'll ever wear a bra alone with a tank top out shopping but I do with a button down shirt as a cover up.

There is no such thing as a bad pair of breasts. If you have them you should be proud of them.

With this summer heat and my low tolerance with heat now, I have started going braless more and more in public wearing just a t-shirt. 
Can't imagine going braless. Even more so in the heat as the boob sweat is exacerbated being braless.
If the bra fits, wear it.

To minimise my nipple display this summer I have been wearing bras with padded cups. Unfortunately I do find these a lot more sweaty than my usual lace bras. I might try pasties instead.  Any advice how to stay comfortable in this heat?

For me an unlined bra, specifically a mesh type conceals the nips sufficiently and the material breathes.

Last week it was in the 90's and 100's so I went bra less when I could.   My only complaint was in and out of A/C.  Lets just say I had two pointers leading the way.  Otherwise it's a lacy unlined bra for sure.

Being barrel chested helps me avoid people realizing how big mine are. I've walked into a few bra shops that didn't notice I was wearing a bra till I said so. Currently 40F/G but somewhat shallow/wide root as of last measurement. Lost 40lbs and went down from a 44D/DD so, now my breasts enter the room before me. Can't hid them fully, So I tend to dress to suppress their outline and full size.

I have noticed a recent reduction in posting (at least in the portion of the site that I frequent).  In many ways, I believe this is a healthy indication of true acceptance.  How do you feel about it?

Been meaning to chime in on this thread. I am a 40DD/42D, although broad shouldered, I show chest on some level regardless, and generally prefer some form of support for it. It's summer heat and humidity so I go braless more often, but nearing 60, there are a lot of older guys that show too in tees and polos so it is a lot easier not to worry about it... although I still am careful about clothing choices to look the best I can.

  Well I was out and about all morning running around doing small projects for people.  I most always have a two pocket fishing shirt on.  I will typically have 2-3 buttons undone, just above the gore.  Well today I was heading home and I noticed my 4th button was undone.  With movement and the breeze the sides of the cups and underwire was there to see.  Nothing was ever said so I just have to smile and continue on.

I believe it is a garment that I wear keep me comfortable.  Hot here, so I wear braletts that are able to conceal.  They do a great job, but compress my chest more than I like. 

When cooler, I wear wireless bras that are more comfortable and able to hide under layers.  I'm only a 40"C".  I can manage the show.

I can appreciate that oldguy.  I just spent several weeks  in southern Texas and I didn't dress in nice supportive underwires like I do in the upper midwest.  Today I had my Ever Flexing underwire in Lavender/Sage on over a white and light blue patterned fishing shirt.  That one comes in Alpha sizing so an XL in this fit like my 40C-D cup underwire Wacoal bras.  Its not one to push my breast forward but gives nice support, shaping and comfort.  My issue is I do need front or back hook.
