As someone who measures in at a 36AA - and that's being generous - I'm well aware of the many reasons to love your small boobs. Granted, there are a few frustrations (why are all swimsuit tops all designed for B-cups only?) but overall, I'm happy with my convenient travel-sized chesticles. In a world that embraces everything big-boobed, why am I small but happy? Read on, my fellow A-cups. Here's a short list of the reasons you should love your small boobs, too.
1 The Fashion
The gorgeous Keira Knightley is living proof that a plunging v-neckline was made for those with A-cup breasts. There's no danger of the girls getting away from us, causing a nip-slip or other wardrobe malfunction when they're so meek and well-behaved. Really, there is no top that's off-limits for a girl without much on top.
2 Gravity
My dear, gravity is not kind. But if you've got smallish boobs, you're a lot less prone to stretch marks and sagging than, say, a C-cup. Your small breasts will stay pert and perky for much longer, especially if you're also fit overall. So our bodies defy gravity and its ill effects. We're kind of like super-heroes, no?
So many of my well-endowed friends complain about the discomfort of underwire and the overall cost of their bras (and matching panties). One pulled the wire from one of her old bras and showed it to me in disgust. It was horrifying! And the bra it came from? Expensive! I can't imagine spending so much money for what is basically an instrument of torture. Me? I'll be over here, in the wire-free, ultra-comfy cami-top section.
4 Pain Free
The same busty friend who showed me the underwire also showed me the permanent indentations on her shoulders, "earned" from years of bra straps digging into her skin, holding the girls up. She also has constant back aches, something we smaller girls likely will never experience.
5 Posture
Proper posture is so elegant... and if you've got smaller boobs, chances are, your posture is easier to maintain. Think about it - we lack the 15 to 20 pounds of forward force trying to keep us hunched over. Chin up, tummy in, (smallish) boobs out. Perfect!
6 Jogging
I'm a runner (not a fast runner, but still) and this is the one time I'm the happiest that I'm an A-cup. When I run, I'm in no danger of knocking myself out, or harming anyone who happens to be nearby. I don't have to resort to wearing two sports bras just to contain the girls and keep them from flying about. I can focus solely on the miles, not my boobs.
7 The Flop
We've all been there - you come home after a particularly trying day and flop, dramatically, face-first onto your couch/bed/floor. Our bustier friends can't do that, not without inflicting pain. To fully express their frustration, they must find another outlet, other than our perfectly fitting Flop.
8 There's No Shame
Finally, we're at a point in our cultural evolution that we're starting to realize body shaming, in all its cruel, wretched forms, is unkind and unnecessary. Big boobs? Fine! Small boobs? Fine too! Something in between? Equally fine! So the media and wider world are starting to accept that not all women are built exactly the same, and it's time we realized this, and embraced it, too.
9 You Can Fake It
I admit it - there have been a few times I've worn padded, silicone-filled push-up bras just to see how the busty half lives. And it was fun! I love my body just the way it is, but it was kind of interesting to see how bigger girls live. At the end of the day, I got my own body back (yay!) but it's nice to know that if we ever want to fake it, we can. It's probably much, much harder for a bigger girl to fake being smaller, and I shudder at the thought of the binding devices it would require.
10 Self Exams Are Faster
Small boobs are just as much at risk from breast cancer as larger ones, so it's still important to examine them monthly. On the plus side, though, a thorough exam won't take long, so there's no excuse not to do it. Insert stern, motherly look here.
See? Small boobs are wonderful! Small boobs are glamorous! Small boobs are ... smaller than big boobs but are still just as fabulous (just smaller). If you're a smaller girl, like me, chime in and let me know why you loves your minis, too!

Rosie01 Thankyou for this:)
Shilan92 Love this article!
Gaby_ Just wanted to let you know that I love you for this article ☺️
Kitty This article was not at all offending curvaceous women. In fact, it's you, @inna who's offending the author and us readers by stating that we are not "secure about our non-existent curves", which might I say is completely irrelevant and false.
Shahir Hello
Sam I'm flat chested can I be
BeautifulDanger Haha the comment section is savage as eff where's my popcorn so much drama XD
BeautifulDanger @Inna haha your kidding right? This article isn't offensive to the slightest,it's written for girls like myself with small chests to make us feel more confident so you need to shut up
BeautifulDanger I'm a 36B and I love mind their so cute and perfect
PantherGirl69 I like my 30C's I wouldn't want them any bigger ❤️ their perfect
Inna @ Jennifer Knightstep. I'm 14 years old turning 15 next year in April. I'm a 34c, 32d or 34d depending on where I purchase the bra. My size depends on the bra retailer. I just wanted to inform you that I found your article very offensive. I am curvaceous and not only am I busty but I have hips to balance it. So don't go putting us down because you're not secure about your nonexistent curves
Aria_98 @Inna: LMFAO how is it offensive? 🤣 shut up little girl you have absolutely no idea what your talking about

Chocolate @jessica Girl Bye. Don't call me "honey" I don't know you, stay in your lane. I don't feel attacked or threatened by you so get that out your mind. Im trying to tell some of the bigger chested girls who are complaining the point of this article. Your right she didn't need to put bigger chested women down, it was completely unnecessary. This article was honestly bad I can agree. We're all women and beautiful.
Chocolate @Renee I understand. That was rude. I honestly wish they remove this article. We're all beautiful.
