h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

In response to the above question I would probably have to answer, yes.

If for instance you wear a bra two size's too small its going to be really uncomfortable, if you wear one two sizes too big its really going to fail to give you sufficient support.

certinaly, but I was thinking more along the lines of towards the male of the species.

Hrm well not being much of an expert in transvestism, I don't think I can add much more than this, But I suppose its all to do with the image you wish to portray.

Meanwhile I am quite sure I've never worn a bra but I have a nigling feeling I have, either way if I did it was far too tight, so it either needed more elastic to deform to my shape, or it needed to be a different size, so I guess when it comes to men, Bra Size does matter.

So bra size matters, mmm, interesting.

It seems bizarre that men are so interested in them.

Of course if your on about the size of the things that go into bra's I could probably come up with all sorts of half baked theorys.

For instance, perhaps from an ancient mating urge a man looks for a good sized pair of mammary glands as a way to tell if posible mate will be able to care for his offspring.

Then again could it be that the media manages to proliferate their own idea's based on all manner of sources, which are then fed into the minds of the masses like molasses through a sieve.
The answer is to look at these sources.
Lara Croft for instance is a well recognised female character that is portrayed in the media, being in several computer games, adverts and even in films. With the attributes of unfeasibly large breasts and akimbo guns.
How was this persona created, no doubt from the pants of a computer geek, driven forwards by the marketing forces that know all boys like that kind of thing.
This ends up passing the buck, Lara Croft is only a product of our societys on going obsession with breasts. A product that reinforces and continues the trend. So I guess that doesn't answer the question.

How about combining the two, the natural urge for large breasted women is due to the instinct to find a suitable mate that will allow us to proliferate. This instinct, when mixed with such modern day social pressure, creates a force that drives the media machine to portray women in such ways. From our youth we watch cartoons all of which include breasts, TV shows include breasts, even newspapers include breasts. We are even breast fed at birth. How can a women show her womanlyness visibly where ever she goes, why with her breasts. In this increasingly difficult world how can women stand out from the crowd, what can you do to show your are better than your peers? Larger breasts?

These things and more are then proliferated through TV, and film, music, books, the internet, and it becomes a self fulfiling prophecy.

Whilst we might live in a more sensible society where women and men are supposed to have equal rights, we still have the legacy of ideas created by the sexist regime that are still proliferated.

Perhaps we need to turn over these idea's. Nobody like change but it is inevitable. What we need is Suffragette's 2, women who refuse to be bound by such antiquated and sexist ideas that define the way they should appear. They could all get mastectomy's and shave their heads and everything.

Well, women, when defensive, do tend to push out our chests...especially with men, maybe they're subconciously trying to distract men and get our way...just as the male organ is telling them to be attracted to the chest.

Maybe both are subconsiously drawn to each other?

I would count that as more body language than breast size related. Perhaps its a way of making them seem a more imposing figure, its exactly the kind of thing that works as well, which is probably why it happens. Oh and its far more comfortable to stand like than than slouching anyway, and stretching always feels good.

Mens erections on the other hand are more of an uncontrolable thing, (women should realise this and take full advantage), when a man gets aroused its trouser tent time, which I suppose is a very male thing. As males tend (traditionally/stereo-typically) to go for the whole unsubtle, brash, macho type approach to things. Stopping the blood rushing to your crotch or making the blood rush there just aren't easily willed things, the out thrusting of the female breast on the other hand is something women can control. I suppose you could look at the human body and consider how the male and female cultural heritage has been brought about by their physical differences, through evolution and such. Alas my anthropology is quite limited only to know the most titilating intellectual facts, but tempered by my apathy, only the discovery channel could possibly save me.

For some reason I'm reminded very strongly of the mating habits of birds, yet I am unsure whether this is relevant or my mind trying to sidetrack itself off this subject ;P

Your link to birds is because when males try to attract females they stick up their tails and thrust out their chests to make themselves look more attractive and increase their chances of mating...

I'm not entirely sure how I know this but still that's why.

Clearly this is evidence of inverse avian behaviour transition to humans due to anthropomorism.

Absolutely

No. Bra size doesn't really matter. It's what's in the bra that counts!

Cheeky!

as a male of the species more than a handful is a waste *i have very large hands* hehe!!

So Bra size doesn't matter but the size of the contents does?

"So Bra size doesn't matter but the size of the contents does?"

yes and no and not really and all those type answers..because like everything else in the world it's all relitvie and personal prefrence...personaly I find diffrent body types look better with different contents but others might not share my same view...like I know a few guys that like small and I like a few who like large and then a few that like good handfulls and then most of the others like any that just about any female is willing to show them

So size doesn't matter but it does matter

The first thing I'm attracted to is a nice smile.

(With nice b**bs a close second !)

exactly


()

I agree with a nice smile, and nice eyes...bra size doesn't come into it as I don't fancy women but size of a blokes tackle wouldn't even be something I'd think about...let alone be drawn too!

i agree that a nice smile and eyes are a good thing that is what attracted me to my wife as she wasn't that large in the bra department when we first met they have just grown bigger naturally i may add none of that silicone stuff!!!!!
