Having big breasts is like a curse and a blessing. More times, it is problematic asf. I asked Nigerian women to tell me what the problems of having big breasts are and they had a lot to say. These are 8 of some of the most pressing problems women with big breasts face.

1. People only maintain breasts contact

Having big breasts means having people talk to your chest instead of you. Where ever you go, people keep staring at your breasts, some even go as far as touching it without consent. Men, women, babies, they all want to touch your breast.

2. Bras are so EXPENSIVE

Buying a bra is an extreme sport when you have big breasts. Others can find their bra size for 800 naira while you have to spend at least 3k for a single bra. To top it off, the bras are always ugly. It’s like you don’t even get options. Designers want you to be grateful they even made a bra in your size.

3. Your breasts walk into any room before you.

Having big breasts means having a town crier that just announces your presence. It doesn’t matter how you dress, your breasts will find a way to make you the talk of the room.

4. Strapless bras are a nightmare

You wear a strapless bra to compliment your sexy gown. However, 20 minutes after you step out in a strapless bra, your bra decides it doesn’t want to hold your breasts anymore, it now likes tummy. So, now you have a high waist belt that used to be a strapless bra.

5. Limited lying down postions

There aren’t a lot of comfortable positions for you to lie down. Your breasts are just everywhere. Lying on your sides make your boobs feel like melting ice cream. Lying face front somehow elevates your entire body. You can’t win with your breasts.

6. The back pain

Women with heavy breasts have to endure back, shoulders and sometimes, waist pain. Their breast sometimes have them slouching which can lead to bad posture and inevitably, body pains.

7. Your dress size is never truly accurate.

It’s as if big breasts just say to their owners “Go! For I have increased you from a size 10 to a size 14.” Having big breasts means knowing that clothes that do not size your breasts will not size you. You have to constantly worry about outfits. It’s exhausting.

8. Period boobs

Imagine having period boobs all the time, that’s the life our big tits sisters have to live. You can imagine how heavy and full their breasts become during their period. Honestly, it just gets worse.
