mortensorchid Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 I have a new bf these days and he said something that I have encountered in recent years. He is shocked once he feels and/or sees the size of my breasts. I am currently a 34D. How does this happen? Let me explain ... I am 5'10". Growing up I was always head and shoulders above the other kids until puberty hit, then the boys (and a few girls) started to catch up with me on the height charts. Then puberty hit. I went through the awkward stage, becoming fat and going through horemonal changes. When everything settled into a woman's body from a child's body, my boobs stayed big. With the height and my big breats, I was doubly self concious, so to this day I slouch. I had been a 36C since puberty. Then I gained quite a bit of weight and they grew to 36DD. I lost 45 lbs in the last two years, am in the middle range of my high school weight at age 33, and now they are 34D. As an adult I am not self concious about my height or my breast size, but I am well aware of the stereotype that women with big breasts are seen as stupid rather than smart. I keep them under wraps by my slouch and not showing them by the clothes I wear. I try to impress others with my mind first rather than my D cups. Just recently, my currant bf said after he saw them for the first time "WOW!". He said the same thing most guys I have been with all my life after the fact. "You are busty!" Are you really considered stupid if you have big breasts? I think they don't really care about your mind, but just in case they think I'm a pea brain I don't show them the goods until it's earned. Is that weird?
refurb Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 As a guy, I've NEVER heard the stereotype that girls with big breast are stupid. Implants on the other hand are different. If a girl has HUGE implants, there are certain stereotypes that are associated with that. I think that you are overestimating the impact of your large breasts. They aren't that uncommon, so I don't think any particular stereotype is associated with them. RF
Walk Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 I've got a 34A, As of today still no guys screaming "Yo smarty!". I heard someone yell "sexy" at me the other day, but never anything about my brain. Guys don't think you're stupid becasue of your breast size. They just don't care if women have brains. (j/k)
Ruby Slippers Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 I am tall with 36C boobs, and I carry myself with good posture, shoulders back. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my posture and manner of carrying myself, and no one has ever told me they've associated my boobs with lack of intelligence. I run my own business and have always been considered a smarty. No matter what you've got, it comes across MUCH better if you carry yourself with confidence and grace. Hunching is never attractive! Be proud of your height and your luscious boobies.
Lizzie60 Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I never heard that busty women were dumb... I'm thinking of Dolly Parton.. I don't think she's dumb.. same with Pamela Anderson.. but it's true that there are lots of jokes about blonds with fake boobs... I have huge boobs... and I'm only 5'2... but I have dark hair.. and they are 'naturels'... nice shape.. I love my boobs.. who cares what people think... YOU know you're smart..that the important thing..
vonerik012 Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 Well, I am a man and I never associated boob size with intelligence...
Art_Critic Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 My ExWife was a blond 38DD.. all natural and she wasn't ditzy or stupid in the least bit...mean yes.. dumb no
Jilly Bean Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I'm a natural 34DD, with a slim body. So yeah, the boobs get NOTICED. Plus, I do work them a bit. I like to say they are much like my Spanish - enough to get me into trouble, and not enough to get me out. lol I've never accounted anyone assuming I was ignorant because I was stacked, and I've never heard this stereotype.
EYECANDY000 Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 Some people might stereotype you if you if have them hanging out your bra. People would see you more as an attention grabber. and you are using your breast to over shadow your self esteem.
curiousnycgirl Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I am 5'4" with 36DD natural breasts. I am also very, very bright. Boobs don't make women stupid, they make men stupid! Men speak to the boobs and expect them to answer! Or they are so fixated on the chest that when you ask them a question, they can only stammer.
D-Lish Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I am a 30D.... and as a former bra fitter I bet some of you gals are wearing the wrong bra size! lol. Since my back is a 30... my D's are only relevant to the backsize and therefore don't appear huge. (like my volume of cup would look like say a 34B). I've been stereotyped because of my blonde hair...but never because of my boobs. The most common bra size I measured and sold at my shop was 32F. You would think that to be huge... but most of those women came in wearing an incorrect 36C or 34D and when properly fitted walked out with an F cup. I also sold G, H, I, J, JJ cups in all back sizes! Smallest size I ever sold was a 28A and the largest was a 52JJ. Mull that one over! If the guy was surprised by your breast size when he saw you naked... then he was never stereotyping you in the first place, just think of it that way.
Star Gazer Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I'm a 34D/DD. While I have inferred from certain men that they think I am less intelligent than I really am, I have attributed their perception to my blonde hair and youthful face, not my boobs.
carhill Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 Are you really considered stupid if you have big breasts? I think they don't really care about your mind, but just in case they think I'm a pea brain I don't show them the goods until it's earned. Is that weird? Noooo!! Escape the neanderthals whom have imbued you with such a notion You've outlined what I love about natural breasts. They can "hide" if you want them to and then, when you want, take you anywhere you want to go My wife's best GF is your breast size/height and blond and the last adjective I'd ever use to describe her would be stupid. B@llbuster, yeah, sure, but smart as a tack with an acerbic tongue to match So, did your new BF have any "surprises" for you??
fral945 Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I just had to jump in this conversation because I love being surrounded by all these women with DD breasts. OP, as far as your original question, no, you are not considered stupid if you have big boobs. Men probably hope you are dumb so they can take advantage of your boobs, but that's about it. I'll admit if I see a hot blonde with big boobs I do tend to think she'll probably be dumb, but I think it has more to with the blonde hair and the way she carries herself more than the big boobs. The only stereotype I have with big boobs is I see those type of women as more caring and motherly (I don't know if it's true or not, that's just how I see it). I have my stereotypes, but I usually give everyone the benefit of the doubt until I've had a conversation with them.
Author mortensorchid Posted August 2, 2008 Author Posted August 2, 2008 Well just for the record, I am brunette not blonde. Come to think of it, people seem to think that you are dumb if you are a blonde woman. Put in the big boob factor and others will think you are an airhead like Pamela Anderson. Or, is she really dumb? She can work the publicity machine to make her famous.
carhill Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 Pam? Business-wise, not dumb.... relationship-wise? Hmmm.... FWIW, I liked her look far better back at the beginning of her Playboy career before she got implants and plastic surgery. She was a nice sold C. I think she was 19 back then. My best friend's wife is a blue-eyed brunette who's quite well-endowed. I know because she flashed me once in their RV while he was in the shower.... Another one of those friends who likes hugging on me. What torture No, I don't consider her stupid. What do you think I am, stupid?
Enema Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I think it's related to overall weight and appearance If you're slim and gorgeous with big boobs, people might assume that you received some advantages in life because of your looks rather than your brains. But, if you're fat-ish or not very good looking while sporting huge cans, no one will assume you're dumb.
Lizzie60 Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 for Pam.. (same with Dolly)... their boobs made them famous... I am not so sure they would be where they are now if they had a 32A... BUT that being said.. they eventually could prove that they were smarter than what most people thought about them. But, in general, I would say that blonds with fake boobs are dumb .. why would they want big boobs in the first place.. why not accept themselves the way they are.. they get more attention anyway.. just because they're blond.. why more?
Gunny376 Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 Boobs are boobs, they don't have anything to do with intellegence. Now a guy thinking with his penis ~ that's a whole different story?
You'reasian Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 My man boobs are real, I know - I know. even though I can make them jump to the rhythm of popular tunes. That's from years of pushups, dips, 8-counts... PS - I bet gunny loves the 8-counts!
redfathom Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 If you are so smart why do you believe something so stupid...Who ever said that in the first place...
sumdude Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 You've got it all backwards... your 'big boobies' make all the men act stupid!
sumdude Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 I am 5'4" with 36DD natural breasts. I am also very, very bright. Boobs don't make women stupid, they make men stupid! Men speak to the boobs and expect them to answer! Or they are so fixated on the chest that when you ask them a question, they can only stammer. bingo! I have no idea why this happens... but I have fallen victim to talking like I have booble gum in my mouth... lol... I do not talk to the boobies themselves though... al they ever say is "Look at MEEE!!":laugh:
2sunny Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 i'm a tall, slim, smart 32D gal. and i do agree with DLish that most gals wear the wrong size. like DL - i am small around the rib cage. when i was breast feeding - i was a ghastly 32G. now THAT was uncomfortable and awkward looking!
