[Read more letters about this article: Here]I'll have to go Sarah one better - while lying on the bed in the emergency room after a carbon monoxide poisoning, the male nurse had the gall to ask me what bra size I wore. Unfortunately, I did not have the foresight at that time to take that issue thru the complaint process that I should have.
While I do understand that 'fitting' is an issue for women of all sizes, I have to say that having been overly compensated in the chest department myself from a young age that this is a far more challenging state than being of 'normal' size. The preconceptions regarding my moral or mental or sexual being, the bald attention and inability to remain tactful that this draws from (mostly) male persons is a very disturbing phenomenon.
Why this 'overly abundant' state is so highly desired by many women who are not naturally so saddens me, although I can understand the internal pressure generated by the constant bombardment of depictions of such in commercial enterprise - and the men who have bought into it.
