[ Outline ] · Standard · Linear+ D, Dd, E, Une question

There are lots of busty ladies on here so I was just wondering...is DD a size between D and E or is it larger than E? Being female you'd think I'd know, but my bosoms are small so I've never ventured up that side of the scale before. :wink:

Just a thought about the 'A' sizes, I think it may have something to do with the fact that you can get AAA as the lowest size and since A cups are at the lower end of the range it's probably just easier to have a single letter as the main principal size. It's a bit like batteries, you get AAA, then AA which is bigger. :P Doesn't explain D and DD though.

Just read this:

"Some manufacturers use size DD but then continue with E, F, G, H, I, J, etc. Others use DDD to represent an E and some go on to use E, EE, F, FF, G, GG, H, HH, etc. This can make purchasing a large-cup bra difficult."

I suspect it's just so manufacturers can produce a wider range of fittings and thus satisfy their customers. So they could have a line where DD is larger than a D but smaller than an E, rather than DD being the equivalent of an E.

My wife's sister went for a fitting a few weeks ago, and the sizes have changed somewhat over the years. She has gone from a C to a DD (without her boobs growing) - the salesperson said it was so those younger (9,10 year olds) girls could wear bras. So really; cup size means squat - go by hand size...

Handful :)

A bit more than a handful :P

A lot more than a handful :niceones:

Heehee. Ohh this leads on to a whole different thing altogether...anyone up for a debate about how young'uns are growing up too quickly?! I walk into a supermarket and I see 8 year olds wearing black, high-heeled, leather knee high boots and mini skirts with thongs showing at the top, along with dyed hair. I was wearing t-shirts and leggings at that age with cartoon characters on them. :blink:

I reallyreally hope that I don´t have to see girls like that in here...maybe 12-year-old could wear such a outfit but 8?!?!!? :blink:

I don´t have to depate with you, I agree with you! My son is 5, sweet innocent and I hope that he will stay that way for few more years...

oh, and cupsizes...I have bras that are 65G and 70F and it took an hour to found a good one, I started from 75C which is too big and small at the same time. I do like my boobs a lot but finding bra (and I really do need bra) and having headache because of the weight isn´t too nice...and it´s not nice when males just stare at your melons (you guys can stare them all that you want :P)...but I can understand females who feel that they aren´t happy with their boobs. Big or small, I love them all :kisses:

Hehe, kids are better when sweet and innocent, it's a shame that they go from being so cute to being a stroppy teenager!

Yeah big and small, all's good. :thumbup: I think ladies with larger boobs do seem to have the most trouble finding bras, though saying that I'm the lower end of the scale and the trouble I have is that I don't need underwiring (horrible stuff, blah, uncomfortable) and yet that's all any shop sells. Unless I go into the kiddies section, which I refuse to do. :roflmao: Luckily I have found a wonderful online site that sells soft bras with no underwiring for smaller busts, so I get it all off there. :)
