Don't actually object to my bust - but it is heavy, and can attract the wrong sort of attention, and I do have problems wondering why neater women want bigger ones - try running with these!!!!!
I totally agree with you, shimmycelia!!!

Last time I performed for a belly dancing crowd and did a little should shimmy, all I could think of was 'They're probably staring at me'. My should shimmies are demure and I keep them to a minimum!!!

It's hard for me to find clothes too because I have a little waist but you can't tell if you can't look past my chest. I get attention from both men and women.
