Keira is a beautiful woman. I really like that first photo in particular. I did not like the way her body was portrayed in The Darjeeling Limited, but I thought her body was portrayed beautifully in Atonement.

V, I couldn't read any of the threads on the AAA forum. Do I have to sign up first??
Listen, I am small breasted. An AAA, AA, A, and even B's can be small in my book. It's just the way it is. I think a large B is not small, but a large B may think she is small. Its all based on belief and perspective. Were you in any of those photos that you took and posted?? Nice work by the way.

Crinoline, you're beautiful!

I had to share this comment about our girl Keira Knightley. I found it among a bunch of negative online comments about one of her pics--you know, where everybody's saying how she's too "flat" and skinny, blah blah:

"i don't care what anybody says, keira is hot! As far as breasts go, small is just as beautiful & sexy as big. i'ts unfortunate that there r still sorry excuses for men who judge a woman's beauty by her breast size."

Thought that might brighten someone's day!

Here's me (and Crinoboy)

k...for some reason that didn't work... it's post # 157 in the "say Cheese" thread (currently on page 8)
eta- fixed it, just scroll down. *I suck at technology*

I'm kinda curious to see some of your faces you know

me three!
I always want to post pictures on bust, but like to keep a bit on anonymity so I can talk about literally anythingg I want without worrying who might see it or feeling inhibited

I met a girl today who had super small boobs. and she was bra-less! It made me feel pretty stupid sat there in my padded bra. she seemed so uncaring and comfortable in her skin. she wasnt a 'conventional beauty' but there was something so unique and captivating about her. i would loved to have talked to her about it but it's not exactly the sort of thing you bring up with someone you just met is it. I felt like whipping any enhancements off and saying 'look im like you!'. which is pretty silly really, im sure larger breasted ladies dont think similar things.

Me too. I won't post my pic publicly, but I'd e-mail personally...

[Vendetta]

yeah, I also find that term a bit offensive

My breasts look like hers, is some photos I think I'm smaller, but I'm not that thin

Hi ladies, I'm on a Keira Knightley binge of late. My breasts look just like hers (or maybe an entire half an ounce larger, ha). Here are some photos of this small busty who is proud of her bod:

Vendetta, your photography is wonderful. You're quite talented!
I didn't care for what I saw on the "Flatsy" site, but thanks for finding and sharing. Like DJ-biz once mentioned here, I find the term "flat-chested" a bit offensive; it makes me think of a wooden board. Every chest, no matter how small its breasts, has some shape.

Just some of my work

[karategrrl]

I wish more underwear companies would stop putting stuffing on the outside of our boobies for those ladies who decide not to put the stuffing inside their boobies.

Karategrrl, your comment about telling men that more than a mouthful is a waste nearly made me fall out of my chair, I was laughing so hard. I will definitely have to remember that one! HA!!!!!

Aithinne, that was very well put about the stuffing inside and out. Yep, that bugs the shit out of me too. I think what bugs me more, though, is B- and C-cup (and up!) bras with stuffing and padding and push-up and "OOMPH!" and all that crap. Look at the Victoria's Secret catalogs--they have lots of that--big-busted women with the boobs squashed together and up to where they're practically under the woman's chin. Give it a fucking rest, already. They're big--no need to "enhance" them.

Glad I cracked you up!! Yep, I think the absurdity of a lot of men's comments becomes more obvious when we try the comments on them for size (no pun intended).

Now THESE are small breasted ladies. Some of them don't even have any breast tissue to speak of. A-cup is considered HUGE on that forum. I know it may sound bad but it's kinda like that though that karategrrl and I have... be happy with your A and B cups ladies.

[strongirl]

I've been meaning to share this quote, and think that all of us, and Copeless in particular should meditate on it:

"There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion." Sir Francis Bacon, 1561-1626.

It's interesting, but I've always found that the people who totally captivate me with their beauty are the ones who have some oddity - a mole, unusual height, or coloration, or weird hair, whatever. I used to be unable to even tell Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera apart when they first became popular - to me they were just generic interchangable young blondes. But someone with a feature that really stands out - now that person will catch my eye. I recently met a girl who has extremely differently sized breasts - one quite large, the other very small. She makes no attempt to hide this and she's quite sexy and attractive.

And I've said this before, but going to clothes-optional beaches and hot springs (of the naturist school, not a swinger's type place) is a great way to see a wide range of real normal bodies and practice body acceptance.

Here's to embracing "strangeness", with grace and style.

[Aithinne]

Hey ladies, thanks for all your comments to my post!

Vendetta, I am sure you are right that my insecurity and hermit-ness is what is scaring all the men off, instead of my boobies. It makes rational sense and is probably true. It's the emotions that get in the way and make me insecure and turn into myself, and then the whole thing becomes a nasty cycle.

Also, I'll have to refer to Christine Nectarine when she said that B cups are still considered small in our culture. And I'm not even a full B anyway, I think I'm between an A and B, because I get that gap in my bras still. For one thing, I don't understand why B-cup bras have underwires... total mystery to me, because we don't need them. It seems like all the bras you get at a lingerie store have underwire in my size and under. I totally wish I could find more bras without underwires because they're so damn uncomfy. I also totally understand everyone here when they were talking about how all the bras for small-breasted women have some kind of padding, or push-up, or stuffing. I can sympathize with feeling like everyone else but you wants to make you look larger. I hate padded bras because you feel them and get cotton, not boobie. I hate that feeling of faking. I wish more underwear companies would stop putting stuffing on the outside of our boobies for those ladies who decide not to put the stuffing inside their boobies.

I'm also reassured to hear some of you talk about how your SOs love your breasts the way they are. It makes me feel proud and happy for you all and happy for myself by proxy!

Karategrrl, your comment about telling men that more than a mouthful is a waste nearly made me fall out of my chair, I was laughing so hard. I will definitely have to remember that one! HA!!!!!

Starship, thanks for your comment. I don't want you to envy me!! I think us smallies have had enough envy of other women's bodies to fill the world's oceans. We should start looking in the mirror and envy the body in the reflection... wait, that's us. Rock on!

Have a great day ladies!

[karategrrl]

[color=#006400][font=Comic Sans MS]copeless,
one time i walked into a cafe in s.f. and got some tea, and when i went upstairs to enjoy it, i found all of these beautiful large paintings of the female form. all of them were lopsided, and all of them were beautiful. i was floored!

True dat, double true!

I mentioned this here once before but it bears repeating for the new ladies...

I went to a training at a yoga center once and, one night of the program, most of the participants ended up in the (no clothing) women's jacuzzi. I was so floored at how BEAUTIFUL everyone looked--in their own way--black, white, old, young, low-riding breasts, small, perky ones, large bodies, small bodies, etc. That is a memory forever etched into my conscience.

[neurotic.nelly]

copeless,

boobs are not sooooo everything. it's a scam, to make you focus all your attention on something as trivial as breast tissue, to make you think that something is wrong with you in order to make you purchase goods, services, products that you don't need to create an image of perfection.

guess what? you're imperfect. guess what? imperfection is beautiful. it's what you do with what you've go that makes the difference. it's how you rock your imperfections that make you stand out. i've seen it again and again.

take care of yourself, it's a cold world out there, don'tchaknow!

[karategrrl]

I also HATE when people say "more than a mouthful/handful is a waste" and other such dismissive comments to try to make small-breasted women feel better. I don't want men to say this to me. I want them to say instead, "Small breasts are damn sexy, womanly, and feminine in their own right. They are beautiful and turn me on as much as larger breasts. I love small breasts on women!" THAT, my friends, would make me feel great if it came from a man's mouth. Not that stupid, more than a mouthful is wasteful crap. I wish we would hear some real compliments in response to small breasts, instead of those stupid evasive comments.

Right on, right on! Try telling a man "more than mouthful is a waste." That would go over like a ton of bricks.

Another gripe I have is clothing for small breasted women. Large-breasted women always seem to say that clothes fit better on us. They are WRONG. Clothes fit best on women with medium-sized breasts. Large-breasted women are always agonizing over how they are always popping out of their clothes, but small-breasted women constantly struggle when they cannot fill anything out. And I can't tell you how angry I used to get when I would go to buy a bra and they were either white, black, or nude colors. Nothing pretty, lacy, or racy for us smallies. Like we weren't feminine enough to have sexy clothing made for us. I always thought lingerie companies were telling us smallies that we weren't real women because we were small, that we weren't sexy so we didn't need the sexy underthings. It felt like they were patronizingly patting our backs from afar and telling us that when we develop into real women, then we can shop for real women's lingerie.

Again, I couldn't agree more!

Great to see so much going on here!!

Hey ladies, I like lulalu stuff and especially the Agent Provacateur lingerie, but does anyone know of really cute petite bras and stuff that don't cost so much? It's not that I'm not worth it and all that, but I just don't want to break the bank on stuff that never sees the light of day. $150. bras????? Cripes. I can buy 3 pairs of shoes for that.

[Vendetta]

lol I didn't mean harm. It's kinda "sweet fools".

[starship]

vendetta you seem much more positive than the last time i was here:)
except for the calling us fools part

[Vendetta]

I feel we are all a bunch of fools, though I'm in it and probably I'm on the worst side most of the time. I can't believe there is a "small breast support group" and I'm part of it. And worst, the girls I "meet" that are part of it too, are smart and insightfull as a subject like this whouldn't expect. Thank you all for teaching me that intelligent women are allowed to have this sort of issues in the middle of active and criative lives. That we are all just women sometimes, and have the right to be so.

[Copeless]

Why are boobs so EVERYTHING???

I was in a humongous liquor store in Chicago a couple of weekends ago (I don't drink, but the whole family was going on this booze buying excursion so I joined) and I saw this bottle of wine with a drawn woman on it. She had a very small, very sad, very triangular shaped, boob just sagging down as if were a big tear coming out of her very being. Her facial expression looked very sad as well. (and I could perfectly understand why!)

I froze when I saw it. I felt mortified, like I was being made fun of, and that people who buy that wine think, "Thank God MY (or my wife's) boobs don't look like that!!!" And that they have soirees at which they serve that wine from the bottle, passing it around so everyone can laugh at the woman with the gross boob on the label.

And then I was self-conscious that people around me would know exactly why I was staring at that particular wine label for so long. (I'm flat on the left, but have something even worse going on on the right...I'm totally asymmetrical, and the thing on the right is not normal. I've come to find out just recently that it's "tuberous") My right thing falls down and is way way lower than the left. It's totally obvious in clothes. It's always obvious. Nothing on the left, blobby dollhouse sized toilet paper tube on the right. You can tell I'm full of self love today.

I had been in an okay mood since our family was all together (cousins, aunt, mom, dad) and I felt "safe" for the first time in a long time, but that picture killed my mood in a millisecond.

I hate the reminders, I hate how it never goes away.

[starship]

woah ive missed so much!
Haven't been able to read everything yet so I'll just make some random boob-related remarks that probably have no place in the current conversation.
I saw 'the Dutchess' recently, inc a fab topless keira scene. she really is my hero of the celeb world. im also loving ayness deyn at the moment. i started liking her due to her style and hair but then i saw these pics http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showb...icle1170446.ece which pretty much made my day:). i know the Sun is a terrible paper but i was also kind of impressed that there wasnt one remark about her size in the 'article'. Not sure if she's even known in the states but thought i'd share anyway. I chose to ignore the comments people have made. the readers of that rag arenttypically the sort whose opinion i would value. I'm sure a lot of people have made negative remarks but does she honestly look as if she gives a f**k.
I've also heard a lot of comments lately about how they not only like but prefer small breasts. Im pretty sure these men have always existed but i think it's taken my own acceptance of myself before i was willing to realise it. and even a lot of the men who are into breasts would prefer small natural ones over big fake ones. Ive heard this loads of times but for some reason always assumed it was a lie
I wish i could go au-naturel in the padding department because it would save a lot of worry when it came to erm exposing myself to new partners. however i really dont dress for men and as i like the way a bit of shape looks under most clothes, it shall remain. I dont feel like im trying to fool anyone, women do all sorts of crazy things to adapt their appearance as they so choose.
Aithinne 34bs sound absolutely perfect for a petite woman like yourself. if i saw you in the street id probably envy your figure:)
underwear-wise i bought some gorgeous camisole type sets recently. no worries over cup-size and they still look super cute in bed, drawing attention to my best bits.
sorry but im dying to catch up on all the posts i've missed
*gets hot drink and settles down to small-breast-fest*
