To have 2 Dcs be fairly slim with largish norks which happen to be natural and to be slightly miffed at the number of grown women often with their partners commenting on my 'fake tits' or 'boob job' and looking down their noses at me?

It's just happened again at the supermarket and I'd say it does about 50% of the time, particularly when dcs are with me which is just great obviously.

I've got nothing against boob joobs but why do people have to assume they are fake & sneer?

As far as my shape goes, I've probably got a good two stone on Posh (just under 9st) but my waist is quite small in comparison to said boobs, but then I've got widish hips too so I look in proportion I think.

Should I get t-shirts printed saying '100% real' or wip my bra off in front of said women and let gravity prove the point for me?

I probably am b u because I shouldn't care what comments complete strangers make, just needed to vent really!

InSearchOfLostKeys · 14/01/2009 00:24

You mean like this?

salvadory · 14/01/2009 00:25

Shouldn't keep coming back for more but...
A woman can dress conservatively and still attract jealous comments if she's lucky enough to be of fabulous bod/face, heck even carrying a nice handbag may set some people off. Tis not a great trait but some women when threatened feel the need to attack, just look at any Daily Mail female columnist for excellent example. As I said earlier it's not the worst problem to have (if only!) but it is a problem if it makes OP feel bad. Right anyone for a Netto's own brand fish finger butty?? Anyone?

DaddyJ · 14/01/2009 00:30

Ok, I take that on board, salva/VT.
I am clearly out of my depth here!

Just fancied slagging off Asda really..

InSearchOfLostKeys · 14/01/2009 00:31

Shit DJ have you been following me?, that's very similar to my mac.

The DM comparison is spot on Salva, being a Guardian reader I would say that though.

Night all.

Thats not that big, are you sure there wasnt a women with massive knockers standing behind you!

salvadory · 14/01/2009 00:33

sorry i meant Asda's own brand fish fingers! Offers DJ one as peace offering

DaddyJ · 14/01/2009 00:37

You have had a go at the Daily Mail, salvadory, that's a peace offering and a half

Googled trenchcoat for Images, that one was on the first page.

It's been a most amusing thread! Night night

salvadory · 14/01/2009 00:37

ditto guardian keys but have to admit to checking DM website sometimes, just to annoy myself, already broken my NY resolution not to do it in 2009.

VinegarTits · 14/01/2009 00:37

Oh slag off Asdo all you like daddyj, im with you on that one

DaddyJ · 14/01/2009 09:25

I unashamedly read the DM online, guilty pleasures,
like the MN AIBU section

lol at 'Asdo', VT. Go the whole hog: Asbo!

sasamaxx · 14/01/2009 09:29

Gorgeous coat!

MadMarg · 14/01/2009 09:29

You need to develop a big attitude - give the woman a condescending smile and say "No darling, it's nature and a good bra" - then deliberately look at their chest and say "A half decent bra might do you some good too" and then walk off with your head held high.

MABS · 14/01/2009 13:42

very true Madmarg

OrmIrian · 14/01/2009 13:46

They say those things to your face . How rude!

I of course have a perfect figure and not one strangers has commented on it......

MorrisZapp · 14/01/2009 13:52

I read the title as meaning she had two kids who were slim with large norks....!

OK I get it now. Well, lucky you! But I do agree it's a bit much when people stare at your tits. I'm 34 dd myself and am amazed by the way men will brazenly stare at my chest, then look at me as if to say 'Well, if you don't like people staring at you then don't have such big tits love!'.

I have to say that over the years I have learned to take jealous or nasty looks/ comments from strange women as a compliment. That is all it is. If they didn't feel in some way threatened then they'd simply mind their own.

In fact I'd go as far as to say that if I walk into a bar and a woman turns round, eyes me the full length and does a bulldog/nettle face then I know I look good!

Awful isn't it.

wishingchair · 14/01/2009 14:46

there's a mum at school who is very slim and glam and has AMAZING norks. No idea if they're real or not but would never dream of asking/commenting at all. I do find it hard not to just gaze at her though ... not in a bitchy or jealous way, just in a wistful, "I wish" kind of way. (post kids, I am now an A cup ... sniff)

Salleroo · 14/01/2009 19:00

Woah, this post turned nasty there for a page or two. Must have been lots of insecure tiny tits on last night.

Bravisimo, must take a look it. Mine are fab, no need of a minimiser, but no balconettes either. Wobbly large breasts are not nice.

Just as I'm typing this a fab picure of mine has come up on the side bar!!!

pamelat · 14/01/2009 20:30

I don't really get this women being bitchy to women in supermarkets thing ?????

Why be so overt in your jealousy?? And I have small boobs before you ask !

InSearchOfLostKeys · 14/01/2009 21:37

ok pic is on had to take it myself so please ignore giant arm. Am taking it off very soon, feels like some dodgy readers wives audition!

Where is picture?

WinkyWinkola · 14/01/2009 22:02

Does this really happen to you in supermarkets? YOu must be really remarkable looking to get this kind of attention. Good for you.

I'd generally take nasty comments from people as an indication of jealousy. Or plain nastiness. Neither of which requires any of your time or head space.

Enjoy your lucky genes!

InSearchOfLostKeys · 14/01/2009 22:24

had pic on for a while but whipped it off again, started to feel too exposed!

Not really remarkable looking Winky no (great name btw)
