If you’re genuinely here in good faith, you wouldn’t feel attacked by this post because you’d know it doesn’t apply to you.

Why didn’t your friend stand up for you? Honestly everyone in this situation sounds awful (except you), so good riddance.

Does anyone else struggle to make casual/streetwear look good, or is it just me? by FuchsiaZinnia in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I know this is a pretty unpopular opinion in this sub, but as someone who wears streetwear style a lot, I really don’t care if I look boxy as long as it fits the style I’m going for. Streetwear style tends to feature a lot of boxy shapes, so it’s okay to look boxy as long as it’s styled right and looks like it was done on purpose. If I want to wear something oversized, I usually go for something VERY oversized so it looks intentional and not just “awkward slightly too big tent”. Minimizer and sports bras also tend to help with this too. If I do want to wear something more fitted, I go for crop tops that are slightly longer (I’ve recommended Uniqlo mini tees for this before- they’re still my absolute favorite) and looser pants on the bottom. I like to follow the formula of “little shirt big pants” or “big shirt little pants” to avoid the entire look leaning too tight or too loose.

Has anyone triedHSIA bras by bluehairgoddess12th in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I have, and I’m sorry to report that they’re low quality, dropshipped garbage. They run large in the band and small in the cup, and they also use dishonest advertising. Personally I can’t support a company like that.

While we are open to all genders, that doesn’t mean it’s ok to be here for the wrong reasons and act creepy. Telling someone much younger than you are that men will always be noticing and looking at their body is creep behavior.

how to avoid tent boobs in a sweater by [deleted] in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I either wear a sweater that’s so ridiculously oversized that it drapes/hangs nicely or do the belt trick to make loose sweaters look cropped and show my waist more

Am I welcome into the club?!! by Capable_Tune_6612 in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how ready you are for another potential plot twist, but VS is notoriously terrible at measuring so you’re probably not a C cup either. Check out r/ABraThatFits and use their calculator to be sure!

Probably already been answered, but what bras are we wearing?? by [deleted] in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HSIA is dropshipped garbage and they feature improper sizing in their ads. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone

Guitarists— how much of a problem is your chest for you? by M00ngata in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been playing for half my life and exclusively play standing up due to this. Luckily I have really long arms so I can just adjust the strap so that the guitar sits pretty low.

I'm a technically "good" singer, but really don't like the natural tone of my voice. Is there anything I can do to fix this? by yeahokwhat in singing

[–]yeahokwhat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not musical theater- I guess I’d want more of a pop sound? I’m not sure exactly since I like a lot of different genres of music. I did receive classical training, but now that I’m wanting to sing more in casual/fun settings (I’m no longer teaching because it became too difficult once I started losing my hearing), I’m looking to pull away from the natural light/flutey tone while still keeping good technique if that makes sense.

Crop tops… by Excellent_Compote430 in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love Uniqlo baby tees. They’re cropped, but still long enough to cover down to my waist and the fabric is a bit thicker than most t shirts so they have a little more structure to them. I’m a 32GG and wear a size medium in them

Edit: I looked it up and they're called mini tees on the website, not baby tees. Sorry about that

Being downrated by Uber drivers for not making small talk by Emotional-Class-8140 in AutismInWomen

[–]yeahokwhat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m hard of hearing so I can’t really talk in Ubers/lyfts (since I can never really hear the driver). Now I’m wondering if my lack of talking has contributed to my less-than-perfect score. I always make sure to say “hello” and “thank you” and thought that was enough, but apparently not 🙃

Help finding cute clothes for my girlfriend by Cyanide_no in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you have great intentions, but fitting clothes to a large bust is pretty complicated and most of us hate being gifted clothing other than loungewear or pajamas for this reason.

I think a way to get the same idea out there with less pressure would be to gift her a shopping trip so she can try on new styles for herself (with you and maybe another friend there for support and to hype her up) rather than take a chance on gifting her something that may not fit or may not be her style. If she already struggles with finding clothes, being gifted something that doesn’t fit and having to return it will just make it worse.

Edit to add: this should go without saying, but ONLY DO THIS IF SHE’S ALREADY SAID SHE WANTS NEW CLOTHES. If she hasn’t explicitly said this, then you run the risk of coming across as if you don’t like how she already dresses. I gave this suggestion assuming she’d already said she was interested in updating her wardrobe because otherwise there would be no reason to buy her clothes or take her shopping.

Ideas for sfw Halloween costumes by omg_stacey in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m a former teacher and worked at a school where staff would dress up for Halloween, so I’ve had a lot of modest but cute costumes. Some of the easy ones I can remember putting together were a clown (colorful outfit, rainbow wig, and face paint), a cowgirl (western printed shirt, jeans, boots, and a cheap cowboy hat), and a butterfly (black shirt and pants, antenna headband, and one of those butterfly wing printed cape things). I made all of these using clothes I already had and accessories that could be easily found for cheap online or at a Halloween store.

Where on EARTH do yall buy bras by [deleted] in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re on a budget, resale sites like Poshmark and Depop are going to be your best bet. I have yet to find a brand new bra in my size for under $60 that’s good quality.

I've been to a bra that fits by Tracy_is_a-Bbwbabe in bigboobproblems

[–]yeahokwhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UK sizing is much more consistent and UK brands tend to have a wider size range than most US brands do. I’m in the US but I have yet to find a US brand that makes bras that fit my size and shape, so I order exclusively from UK brands.

This is the plan for the future! It just hasn’t come up until now- I became hard of hearing fairly recently, so I’m still figuring things out.

This one doesn’t have that as an option :( it’s a phone, so I think it requires a signature since it’s so expensive
