Mind Of Man: When It Comes To Breasts, Bigger Isn’t Always Better

In a recent Sunday edition of a Gotham City newspaper, The Frisky’s very own Vixen of Verbiage, Simcha Whitehill, wrote about a new scientific study that suggests three cups of coffee a day can cause a woman’s breasts to shrink. Bravely, Simcha refused to give up her morning cup of liquid caffeine, even if it meant her rack might decrease in size from voluptuous to less voluptuous.
The study struck a nerve with women, who are as obsessed with their breasts as men are. And women are equally obsessed with the perceived male obsession over breasts. And we are obsessed. All men love boobs; we can’t help it. Before seemingly sensitive and enlightened male readers lambaste me for my sweeping gender generalizations, let me just say: Shut up, dudes. You love boobs, too. Even those of you who signed up for, and thoughtfully participated in, Women’s Studies classes in college … You just did it to pick up hot, feminist nerd girls.
The truth of the matter is that when it comes to sweater kittens, size doesn’t matter to men. Personally, I prefer perky, peach-sized boobs over a more mammoth mammary. Even mosquito bite-sized ones are a turn-on and have their charms.
This study preyed on a common female insecurity: small breasts. Would you give up the juice that gets you going in the morning in order to keep your breasts from getting smaller? Men hate tiny ta-tas, right? Look at the cover of BRODAWG Magazine! Of course, when it comes to the male anatomy, it’s the bigger the better. Imagine a study that revealed drinking beer would make men penises shrivel. Men would freak. We know the truth, no matter what you tell us. Size matters.
The truth of the matter is that when it comes to sweater kittens, size doesn’t matter to men. Personally, I prefer perky, peach-sized boobs over a more mammoth mammary. Even mosquito bite-sized ones are a turn-on and have their charms. And I think a lot of other men would agree. Most guys prefer smaller cups and are grossed out by manufactured breasts. I’m a Texan, and I will say with authority that when it comes to cup-size, bigger isn’t always better.
So, go head, ladies. Drink your coffee. Shrink your orbs of glory. I don’t care. Perky breasts, especially those that are mouth-sized, are pretty damn sexy. They that are more sensitive to the touch, or the lick, or the playful nibble. I mean, who doesn’t love lady lumps that are classically alluring; as seen in museum oil paintings of pale-skinned goddesses with flowing locks, a hint of a pot belly, and, of course, smooth little hooters that kind of stand up and say, “Hello!”
Do men really have so many micro-opinions about female physical attributes that turn them on? Yes, we do. Get more than three men together and ask them about their nipple preferences. We can debate the matter for hours. But before anyone overreacts and reminds us women aren’t objects, let me defend my gender. Most guys aren’t brainwashed by how our culture defines beauty. Most men find the entire spectrum of femininity attractive – we like all types. All kinds. Skinny, chubby, brunette, blond, big posterior, small breasts. Not to further objectify women, but when guys talk about what is sexy about women, we do it the way fat kids talk about ice cream. Fat kids love all ice cream – but some prefer Tootie-Fruity to Cookie Wad Chunk.
I’ve dated women who stare disapprovingly at their breasts in the mirror. Who stuff their bras with those weird jelly-like cutlets, or who seriously consider getting implants. And whenever that happens, I have to remind them that most guys don’t want to date strippers with cartoon honkers. Real guys don’t want Pamela Anderson.
Perhaps the long-ago popularity of saucy, vaudeville sexpot May West and her giant rack directly paralleled the lean, frugal Great Depression in which she rose to national prominence. Some scientific studies suggest that during economically insecure times, men gravitate towards women with more generous cleavage. I won’t dispute that, not from my armchair. Breasts haven’t always been sexualized, seeing as their use as objects of sustenance is implanted into the male subconscious.
I understand why some men want to be smothered by gigantic boobies. But do not fear your lattes, ladies. We don’t care; in fact, some of us want to be the first to buy you a refill.

Very true! I know a lot of men that prefer smaller, perky breasts to large overflowing cups.

Completely agree - I have always preferred small & perky to overflowing cups. That said, as long as the woman is confident and feels good about what she has that is the sexiest of all.

its split for me…
i like to look at big boobs, and there is nothing better than scouting some great cleavage from across the room.
but a more compact version is much better for actually fooling around with.

Sweet, thanks for the post!
I get emails every day from girls worrying way too much about their breasts. Here you are, another guy, who clearly states that size doesn’t matter over all.
My visitors need to read this. Thanks!

It’s more about male hypocrisy. Every guy wants to go out with a stripper with giant boobs - because that draws attention - but no guy wants to marry one.

I think John got it right. Some men want attention. So women. That is why they are getting a boob job. Not because they want their clothes fit better. That is just so not true. If they would want that, all women would go only up to a B cup. Clothes for a B cup girl fits nice. But they want D or DD, for what? For Attention and to be loved… Unfortunately with time all that disappears and they are unhappier than ever before. Feel sorry for them.
Boob job will not buy you love, better or more succesful relationship.

I’ve never seen a breast too big, and I am sorry, but I simply don’t find ‘a’ cups attractive, forgive me for not finding 12 year olds sexy. However, *shape* is a big factor for me, when you lay down, they should not retain their perfect shape, lol, nor should they stay the same shape outside the bra as in

Perky but…natural. I venture to guess that a lot of “natural” woman are not as perpetually perky as you desire. Not every natural woman has breasts that point like a dowsing rod. Gravity takes it’s toll on everyone, men included. Funny how you never read an article about women waxing lyrical on perky testicles.

Well I am compelled to put in my two cents. I am more about the whole package. I don’t mind A cups, or double D’s. I think sexy is a state of mind, and if implants help a woman’s self confidence and self image, I am all for it. I disagree with John, I like to show off my woman. I like for her to display cleavage, or go braless. At this point in my life (57 y/o) I will probably never handle a “perky” breast again, but that is ok with me…. I just love women, esp. a woman my age. Just as an aside, when she takes off the clothes a pair of pierced nipples almost cause a premature ejaculation…. God I love women. Never done anything with a woman I didn’t enjoy. Well, worth what you paid for it, peace….

Hmm on this one I would have to say that I personally dont prefer an A but a full B to a size or two higher is nice to me. I understand about gravity and do not expect anything to be perpetually perky on someone. The point for me being I guess is that I would love them because they are on the person I care about.

Askmen.com named Pamela Anderson it’s #2 Sexiest Woman in like 2002 or something. I honestly can’t imagine how that choice occurred (through concensus, no less)!
I am totally flat-chested a love it. Wouldn’t trade it.
Beauty should be the consideration in this discussion. I mean, bodies are like art work: the unique composition and constructed reveals beauty and sexiness AND CANNOT be reduced to something like “big” or “little” boobs. That’s like saying only little paintings are beautiful. Or big paintings are beautiful. I grant everyone their preferences, but, common.

Speaking from the point of view of a 34A, all of the above is Gospel. And, another thing: even men who like big boobs might find themselves with a small-chested woman that they love just the way it is.
