Lilith - Perhaps 'Positive role model' was the wrong expression to use........but what I'm getting at is this:

There are certain people with in society who are considered 'beautiful' and whether we like it or not, it is from these people that we learn where we fit in in the 'beauty stakes'. If you are smaller breasted there are a hundred and one people for you to relate to. However, while everyone in society feels the need to reassure smaller breasted women that 'size isn't everything' larger breasted women do not recieve any such reassurance from the society as a whole and there are not really any women considered 'beautiful' whom a large breasted woman can relate to.


Now this may seem strange, but I am not someone for whom looks are important.......not when it comes to my partner and not when it comes to myself. I've never considered myself attractive, so it's a non issue.....but there are a lot of people out there for whom looks do make a difference and in the past I have been the butt of jokes because of my breasts. I've also been treated as though I'm some kind of slut because of them, and an average trip to the clothes shop or the underwear store makes me feel like some kind of freak. In fact it wasn't until I came to Pixies that anyone other than one of my boyfriends said anything NICE about them, despite them being the topic of much conversation and humour amongst my group of friends.
