So Many "Boob" Threads Here Lately - How About Lessons Learned About Boobs?

[Traci Elizabeth]

I will go first. The lessons I have learned about having boobs are:

1. You can't fold your arms across your chest like you use to
2. You can't brush your teeth without your upper arm hitting one of your boobs
3. Your boobs arrive at your destination before you do (ouch!)
4. If you are a messy eater like me, your boobs make great TV trays to rest
your plate on right in front of your mouth
5. While gargling mouth wash if you don't consciously lean way out over your
bathroom sink you can give your boobs an unintentional mouthwash cleaning
6. All of those cute feminine tops you had in the early days of transition, become
dangerous weapons as you NOW try to button that 3rd button
7. When you wash your hair in the shower, your elbows keep beating your boobs
8. It use to be "watch out that no one or nothing hits your balls" NOW it's
"watch out that no one or nothing hits your "boobs"
9. It's now uncomfortable to try and sleep on my stomach
10. We sweat in a totally new place - between our "Inframammary Crease" and
our "Cooper's Ligament"-what the heck?-no one ever told me about that



So, what are your "lesson's learned?"

[JohnH]

Add to that:
11. When you have to lie face down to access and service something under the hood of a car you have to be careful not to lie down on your boobs. In my case, it was to access the distributor conveniently located behind the engine right by the firewall.
12. When you pick something up and you hit your boobs, it really hurts.
13. Your wife teases you about your "chi-chi's" or "tits". When you rub them when they itch, she says,"There you go - rubbing your tits".

Now I have to watch out to make sure nothing hits my boobs or my balls - my testicles have not retracted.

On the other hand, it's nice to lie in bed and feel your soft skin and your breasts while being in a nice silky nightgown.

[Kirsty_D]

So funny, especially No.3 and No.11… I could see you forgetting about your boobs and bending over a hot engine to look at something and landing them squarely on top of a hot radiator. :D

[Kathryn Martin]

14. the wonder of my boobs being a part of me;
15. the spray of the shower on my boobs;
16. the familiar/unfamiliar feeling against the inside of my arms when I lean over table;
17. leaning further forward to see my pants zipper;
18. the third button, indeed;
19. No more wearing no bra, two words: nipples and weight;
20. folding your arms now underneath your boobs;
21. they can get a lot colder in winter now when it's 20 below;
22. cycling through growing pains;

And yes all of those up above ......

[Anna Lorree]

Lol, okay, I am gonna follow this thread. I might need some of this someday.

Speak for yourself Ms. Giant Boobs :P

OMG! You are too funny. Hey it's all genes, luck, and the Great Boob Fairly Sprinkling Boob Dust on you every night (of course that requires you to believe)!

What church do you go to? I need to pray to your god :P

[JohnH]

The way I'm going, BBB will not just represent Better Business Bureau, for me it will represent Big Boobed Basso :).



17. leaning further forward to see my pants zipper;
And yes all of those up above ......

Hey, I used to have that problem when I had a huge beer gut and a flat chest.



21. they can get a lot colder in winter now when it's 20 below;


I guess that's where the expression of "colder than a witch's tit" comes from. Of course, Kathryn, you are a wonderful person and not a witch.

[Traci Elizabeth]

What church do you go to? I need to pray to your god :P

Oh no you don't! You are not one of those who do not believe in Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny, or the Tooth Fairy are you?

As "Groucho" Marx use to say - "What's the magic word? Yep! You are correct - "Believe!"




No one else has any observations to share?

[Bree-asaurus]

No... I don't believe in things that have no real evidence. But if my boobs sprout two cup sizes tomorrow morning I'll believe in anything! JUST TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!!!! ;)

[EnglishRose]

- Pointy elbowed kids and developing boobs do NOT mix.

[JohnH]

The thought of that causes me to wince!

Also have your hands around the stomach area. Then raise them up and hit your boobs. Ouch!

[Persephone]

Have just had the beginnings of boobery, still very much in the growing pains stage, nobody ever told me that "sensitive" really meant "ouchy!" Guess as a guy I'd confused "sensitive" with "sensuous."

23) You always have a thermometer with you.

But there are some good points (sorry!) too - wearing an open neckline means you're likely to find your necklace if it breaks.

Hugs,
Persephone.

[Myojine]

Ive yet to experiance any of this except the now visible nipples...
And no more not wearing a bra under a shirt because the fabric running across my nipples adjetages me pretty good.

[Kelsy]

It seems to me that boob threads in this forum fill a similar facination that panty threads do in the CD forum but I'll bite!

I have much more awareness now that all boobs are different(have made nipple comparisons with my wife etc.)
while sitting braless I can feel the heat as my boobs rest on the lower chest just above my belly
jiggle and bounce

[Shapeshiffter]

Just one more to add.You must be careful of small dogs running across your chest while trying to get you up in the morning. It works really well for them tho.

[Julia_in_Pa]

Having my nipples pierced was a lesson in what pain actually is.
It was heavenly!!

OH YEA! I have the same problem with our cats.

24. Especially when you are in a deep sleep and they jump up on the bed landing on your boobs or walk across them throughout the night...can't remember the last undisturbed sleep I have had.

25. Now I understand why my wife would yell when I squeezed her boob to forcefully...damn that hurts!

[JohnH]

26. When you are eating a bowl of cereal your arm hits a boob as you raise the bowl up towards your lips.

[Laurie Ann]

Having to change the way you drive especially when turning the steering wheel when turning a corner

[Traci Elizabeth]

Having to change the way you drive especially when turning the steering wheel when turning a corner

That's a good one and so true.

[Princess Jen]

27. Realizing you can't support any heavy boxes against your breasts while carrying them. For ANY length of time! Oww oww ow! :surrender

[morgan51]

Julia

Had them pierced before any growth, things are reallllly different now! Just waiting and watching interesting what a small insult to them can do to my concentration.All the above as well.

[Traci Elizabeth]

Pierced nipples? WHY? I can't imagine that would feel good when a bra is dressing in on them. And if you are wearing a tank top during the dog days of summer that would seem to be irritating and obvious. But all I have to say is better you than me!

Lesson #28: Don't have your boobs pierced!

[Joann Smith]

Lesson 29... Invest in a really good sports bra if you jog....flopping around too much really hurts

Lesson 30...If you run a metal lathe ..always button your top buttton ..because hot metal chips love to plant themselves firmly on boobs meat if it can find a way in ... and the only way to remove it quickly is to rip open your shirt and pull up your bra to allow it to fall out ..and trust me when a red hot metal shavin lands on a boob you WILL rip open your shirt and bra instantly to get it out....Which can prove to be very tough to explain ESPICALLY when your standing in the middle of a shop floor full of men... never mind how i know...

[JohnH]

Hey, that reminds me of an episode where there was a woman wearing an underwire bra while being next to a microwave transmitting antenna. The wires of her bra got really hot and she had to rip open her shirt and take off her bra, like, right now.

Best Point Yet!

Hope you're O.K. now and that it didn't leave scars!

[LaurenB]

31. When you talk about something very exciting to someone, you all of a sudden have two little friends perking out to tell the person your talking to how truly excited you are! (disadvantage of being braless).

Tech note: Please check that the length of your underwire is not near a quarter wavelength at the transmit frequency before transmitting to prevent painful RF burns

[Joann Smith]

I am OK...now thanks ,,,but yes it did leave a scars

[karanne]

32. The obvious: Some ... well, many ... well, most ... okay, ALL men will talk to your boobs and NOT a foot/30cm north of them to your face!

[Traci Elizabeth]

That is very true and it pisses me to no end when I guy just stares down at my boobs. How rude! Well, maybe part of that is my own fault, as I love wearing tops that show cleavage and sometimes a lot more. Oh well, what can I say?

[Misti]

Yes the GBFSBD is indispensable......

Finally, finally, after 738 days (but who's counting? :heehee:) of taking saw palmetto gel caps and avodart (Dr's prescription), and showing only moderate growth therefrom, :daydreaming: know I who to direct my prayers to; so thanks, ladies. :devil:

And since I have commented now, I have a bookmark to come back to when I can really appreciate, :battingeyelashes: empathize with, :drink: and relate to all this fabulous humor.... :love:

[Bree-asaurus]

Yeah... if we're showing it off... we don't really have a leg to stand on when they stare. We KNOW they will :P

[Persephone]

Tech note: Please check that the length of your underwire is not near a quarter wavelength at the transmit frequency before transmitting to prevent painful RF burns

ROFL!!! I'd never thought of that!

Let's see, the underwire of one of my "averge" bras was about 10" (~25.4 cm) which would make the wavelength 40" (101.6 cm) which calculates out to a frequency of around 295 MHz, placing my bra somewhere around the middle of a restricted U.S. military band!

And since the two cups form a perfect dipole . . . Oh crud! I could hiccough Morse code and get in big trouble!

Hugs,
Persephone.

[LaurenB]

Persephone - I think you just invented a new antenna class! I suspect the the prop pattern will be bi-lobed if you get what I mean. And if we put a second set of elements out near the tips we might have a beam. Good luck matching into it though...personally the matching network I'd use is a pair of black lace panties... OK OK sorry enough tech innuendo...

[Aprilrain]

That is very true and it pisses me to no end when I guy just stares down at my boobs.

if you weren't so short you wouldn't have that problem

[karanne]

if you weren't so short you wouldn't have that problem I'm not SHORT! I'm VERTICALLY CHALLENGED!

(Now what I need to do is figure out a way to get money out of the government for it ...)

[karanne]

Yeah... if we're showing it off... we don't really have a leg to stand on when they stare. We KNOW they will :P We could always wear a T-shirt with a saying, and become Highly Offended when a MAN chose to try to read it.

(Didn't we, when the bra was on the other's chest?)

[Kaitlyn Michele]

turtleneck sweaters and tight jeans... ***** stars

I thought your wife did not like your wearing those tops - you had a New Year's Resolution that you would not wear them.

Maybe the guys staring at your boobs is a way of getting back, of when you were a guy, you probably stared down women's low cut blouses!

I guess I will have that problem in the future and it will be payback for all the times I have done the same!

Johanna

[Traci Elizabeth]

if you weren't so short you wouldn't have that problem


That's a good point. I am not so sure I am "short" but more like average for a woman - 5' 7" even and shrinking as I age. But it is true that most guys are taller than me.

What's really bad is when you are grocery shopping and you bend over to pick an item up off the shelf only to find a guy breaking his neck to look down your top! That has happened to me so many times I have lost count. Typically, I just stare at at them letting them know that I know what they were doing.

But I have yet to see a guy apologize for starring. It's like that is their "Male Privilege" and they have no shame!!!!!!!!!!!

You are right. My wife does not like me flaunting my breasts whatsoever. And you are also right that was my New Year's resolution. But like every year, they last only a few months..... I know I'm bad!

[Aprilrain]

Average for a woman is short to me. I'm "model" tall 6' even. If a guy isn't at least 6'3" then I'm not interested. I'm taller than every woman in the room 99.9% of the time and taller than probably 60% of the men, some are my height and a few are taller but not many. I never thought of my self as tall until I transitioned now I see how many short men there are!
In any case I don't have to worry about anyone staring at my tits since I don't have any

[JohnH]

A few months - it's less than a month and a half - you mean few as meaning more than 1.

I never make New Year's resolutions.

I wonder when my breasts fill out completely and I wear low cut blouses my wife will make me get at least one tattoo above my breasts ...

Johanna

[Melody Moore]

It is one thing to have guys staring down your top, but it is even more freaky when my Dad asked me
recently to see my boobs. I know he is probably just curious to see how much I have changed, but still
this has creeped me out a lot more than having strange men gawking & drooling over my breasts. Has
anyone else been asked to show their private parts to their parents?

That would weird me out. I think I might see where he's coming from. Maybe some part of him can't totally remove the thought that you are a man, so in his mind, your chest is still a male chest and your boobs aren't really boobs, but simply fatty tissue on your chest. Maybe that is how he feels, or maybe it's on some subconscious level???

Or maybe he thinks... "well I saw you naked as a kid, so what's the big deal now?"

But yeah... only one person has seen my boobs and he's also the only one that gets to play with them :P

No disrespect to Melody or any others of you who already have tattoos on your breasts but WHY in hell would you want a tattoo on your breast(s)?

It would seem to me, that you have waited a life time to get female breasts and now you want to cover them up with a permanent tattoo! Hello! :bonk::bonk::bonk:

[JohnH]

My opinion - not only do I say NO to tattoos I say HELL NO! I was simply referring to an earlier thread where my wife wants me to be a biker chick.

No Traci, but I was thinking about sending him photos of me in
a bikini if that is enough to satisfy any curiosity he might have.

OK OK sorry enough tech innuendo...

Tears were rolling down my face when I read that, Lauren, which is particularly bad because I could have shorted out my new beam antenna!

And let me tell you, that bi-lobal pattern is highly directional! Up at 295 MHz you can pretty well rule out any DX but there are occasional OM pileups locally, especially on field day! It has left me very unsure about what to wear if I do decide to go to Dayton this year!

Hugs,
Persephone.

And since the two cups form a perfect dipole . . . Oh crud! I could hiccough Morse code and get in big trouble!

Let's see, my VS full coverage underwire is about the same length. However, if I bought the demi version I might be able to load it on 440MHz. Still might have issues with takeoff angle and signal attenuation. How much does silicone attenuate RF?

You can put a ham in a dress, but she'll still be a ham... :)

[JohnH]

I didn't know that I would open a can of worms when I told about the lady who had to rip open her shirt and take her underwire bra off! :)

I have also hear that a lot of amateur radio operators - hams - in the U.K. are crossdressers.
