Cup sizes
Monday, December 16, 2013 8:21 PM
Ever notice the vast difference between the way men's and women's clothes are measured? Men's shirts are measured with precise inches and length: collar size and arm length. Jeans and slacks are measured by waist size and inseam. Suits are measured carefully and categorized: 42 long. Yet women's clothes are often S, M, and L. For all of these different body shape and sizes. They sometimes use dress sizes (7 or 12), but those sizes vary considerably between manufacturers. And the bra cup sizes: A through DD or whatever. What with all of the shapes and sizes of breasts: conical, full, nursing, sagging, rounded, pert, etc., they have to fit one of the few alphabet sizes. How many times have you guessed and been wrong, just from a hands-on sizing? That's aside from the usual lying. I have seen lots of boobs that were smaller than what I guessed, and some Bs that they swore were Cs. And I've seen tiny ones that would have been lost in an A bra. If somebody could make a cheap, comfortable bra out of a quick, form-fitting clay mold, they could make a killing.
