Big breasts: the myth of the perfect size

Big breasts, the myth of the perfect size

For several decades now, the size of women’s breasts has been at the center of most men’s imaginations, largely due to the influence of the media. The most common idea is that bigger is better. But this perception is highly simplistic, since it links breast size to sexual attractiveness. Worse still, it’s based on stereotypes that ignore the natural specificities of women’s bodies. Large breasts are one of these, and understanding them will enable you to view the subject without any cognitive bias. In this article,

Do men prefer big breasts?

According to a study by the University of Westminster, published in February in the Archives of Sexual Behavior, 32.7% of men are attracted by medium-sized breasts, followed by 24.4% for large breasts and 19.1%, who prefer women with very large breasts. Another study published in 2012 in the National Center for Biotechnology of information states that, for men, breast size is linked to fertility.

As a result, many men who don’t want to have children would be more attracted to smaller breasts. The same study, published in Plos in 2013, pointed out that large breasts are synonymous with wealth. Thus, men with limited financial resources would have a weakness for women with prominent breasts.

Finally, in a study by Beck and colleagues, men were asked about their ideal breast size. The results revealed that the majority of men prefer breasts that are slightly larger than average. We can therefore deduce that men, in general, prefer big ones. If you prefer them too, you’re in the majority camp.

What’s the ideal breast size?

Men’s tastes change. They’re generally influenced by social networks or images on TV. A survey carried out by a dating site, for example, revealed that men are most attracted to 90c breasts. Clearly, men are increasingly attracted to generously-shaped women. Stars like Kim Kardashian and Kate Upton have contributed to this. According to the above-mentioned source, here are the breast sizes most popular with the site’s subscribers: 1. 85 D -23%, 2. 85 C -16%, 3. 90 C -15%, 4. 90 D -12%, 5. 90 B -11%, 6. 90 E -10%, 7. 85 B -8%, 8. 90 A -5%.

The reality of things

There’s no such thing as an ideal breast size. You could be ecstatic about lemon-shaped breasts, while your entire male entourage will opt for larger ones. And no one can change that, unless you succumb to media hype that promotes big breasts as the perfect size. By the way, if you have any doubts about the preference you had before reading this article, ask yourself questions like “How long have I really liked big breasts?”, “Do I have any solid arguments that make me like them, or is it because people around me were extolling their virtues?”, “Would I get less pleasure if I dated someone with small or medium-sized breasts?”. This will open you up to other perspectives, and why not, understand that no matter the size, you love breasts. Better still, you might realize that you actually like small breasts, for whatever reasons.

Data on breasts by country

Before going any further, you should know that cup size is linked to the presence of fat in the body. That said, the results of a study carried out by several researchers showed that women in Luxembourg, Norway and Iceland occupy the top three places among countries with the largest breasts, with sizes ranging from C to D on average. British and American women occupy fourth and fifth place respectively, with a C cup size.

Meanwhile, the International Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery reports that the European countries with the highest rates of breast surgery are France, Italy and Germany. The United States tops the world rankings. This raises the question: are women who have recourse to this type of practice complexed by the size of their breasts? Or are they influenced by men’s preferences? The least we can say is that this type of choice is not the result of a single cause. You could be faced with a woman who wanted to meet her partner’s expectations by undergoing breast surgery, or another who did it to feel better about her body. So you shouldn’t ascribe an immutable logic to every woman who has undergone breast surgery to make her breasts bigger.

Are women satisfied with the size of their breasts?

According to Zavamed.com, in Europe, 84% of women who wear C-cups are satisfied with their breast size. According to the same source, 70% of men say they are satisfied with their partner’s breast size. If the survey includes men, it’s because their partner’s appreciation of their breast size is a factor of self-confidence.

Are bigger breasts sexier?

Current trends suggest that big breasts are more beautiful and sexy. While there’s no denying that for many men, this can be an advantage, it’s also true that for many men, small breasts are just as attractive. What we can safely say, then, is that with small or large breasts, you could find a beautiful and sexy woman.

3 tips to help a woman embrace her breasts

Encourage her to accept herself as part of diversity

To help a woman come to terms with her breasts, you can start by telling her that you find beauty in every shape. You should also tell her that the size of her breasts has no influence on her sexual attractiveness, reminding her that beauty canons have been dictated by the media. By showing her your admiration for the particularity of her breasts, you’ll help her feel respected and valued. Which will boost her self-confidence.

Compliment her inner strength as well as her looks

Rather than focusing solely on your partner’s looks, you need to praise her inner strength if you want to help her take charge of her breasts. For example, compliment the way she wears her clothes with confidence. This will show that beyond her physical appearance, you’re interested in things like her charisma. This will help her see her qualities in a holistic way, not just from a physical point of view.

Be present by listening to his concerns

If a woman around you confides in you about worries about her breast size, offer her a sympathetic ear. This should be felt right down to your body language. Once the confession phase is over, let her know that you fully understand what she’s going through. Also let her know that you’re ready to listen to her whenever she feels the need. Finally, reassure her of her concerns, using the right words. Knowing that a man can listen to her without judging her will help her to feel more confident and take charge of her body.
