Bra without Breast Forms
I was wandering if I am the only man that wears a bra with C cups who doesn't wear breast forms. I like the Playtex Secrets 4422 bra and wear a 34C. Most everyone that posts bra sizes on this forum seems to wear A or B cups. I feel kind of odd wearing C cups but they fit.

Many of us can barely fill an A or B. And have trouble finding bras that fit with just ourselves, especially in the larger band sizes. And I would say many of those would love to have what you have. And I would also say those that have more, often wish they had has less of it do deal with on a daily basis.
I say just enjoy and deal with what you have. We all have been given different things in life. Just live and enjoy life.

I barely fill an AA and there is no comparison between my almost AA breasts and my wifes A breasts. They just look completely different
The same letter cup is bigger when the band size increases. A C cup on a 34 band is signifigantly smaller than a C cup on a 42 band. Men often need the larger band size because of larger rib cages and over all frame size whereas women often need a larger band size due to obesity (Not always and I DO NOT want to offend anyone here) The increase in breast size due to obesity is different from increase in breast size due to larger rib cage and frame however.
Add to that the fact that men have bigger shoulders and longer torsos and a large cup size, though in theory porportionate, can start to look a little too big. At least on me. So I tend to go with 40B or 42 B.
But if the bra fits you and is comfortable wear it. And if you fill a C cup naturally that's the bra for you.

Bra without breast forms
Hi, I find that I am able comfortly fill 42c or 44B, but previously when i was being fitted, the lady (doing my fitting) said that because right breast was slightly smaller, to fill the cup properly rather than getting forms, a much cheaper alternative was to cut down a shoulder pad - it works well
Keeping them cupped comfortably.

I wear a 44B. Of course, I'd like to be a "C" but even my B looks good in a mirror when wearing the proper top or blouse. As the saying goes, make the best of what you've got, and I like what comes naturally.Charla wrote:I accidentally put on one of my wife's softcup underwire bras - size 40D and found that it actually fit pretty well, although a C cup may work better. I normally try tor a 42B but who knew?
