normal breast gallery

Note: this link is NOT safe for work, but isn't pornographic. It's just a gallery of normal female breasts in all their variety and glory.

I post it because I read somewhere today (I think at Pandagon.com, but can't find it) that something like 75% of women hate their breasts. I thought it might be useful to point to the wide spectrum of what constitues "normal".

Lovely site ... thank you. I've saved the main page for future addition to my overflowing-with-links web page. :-)

Thankfully it's never occurred to me to think of my breasts (or any other body part) as looking "wrong"; quite honestly, whenever I've been asked the what-would-you-change-about-your-appearance-if-you-could-wave-a-magic-wand question, my answer has always been to make the eyebrows I overplucked in high school grow back ... anything else I can alter on my own if I put the effort, i.e. exercise, into it ***GRIN*** Must be a side effect of my personal aesthetic settings registering most models/Hollywood actresses/porn stars as looking creepily made of plastic ... :p

HAH!! that's pretty f'ing cool.

BEWBIES!! ;-)

but seriously. I've always loved my breasts, except for the FBS which is pretty damned painful (but not painful enough to give up my coffee!). I liked them enough to have topless photos of me get posted on the web (back in 2000).

It's my ass that i hate. ;-)

What's funny is that we (women) get so programmed by what Men (and the media) thinks the ideal female form should be that when we meet appropriate partners who love us unconditionally and worship the parts that we hate the most about ourselves - we don't always know how to handle it.

The comments on the original post (found it! (http://pandagon.net/2007/04/25/my-world-is-awash-in-things-that-are-awash-and-a-link-farm/#comments)) mentioned that vaginapagina has a "real bodies" ongoing project that includes more than just breasts.

For me, I've found that focusing on what my body can do instead of what it looks like reframes the whole argument - if the machine works, who cares what it looks like?
