hmm, taking off a bra would occur to me too, trust me... I am currently an A according to the charts and in my opinion it looks like an A naked, but I can wear B cup, but as I said I could wear them even as I was smaller. I will be a B in march, when I reach 96cm, that is around 2cm more, so I do not know now how it will look like. I can see myself with the swelling in 96cm circumference, but that is what I said in the first place, it looks different than the actual growth, sadly better than the actual growth, because of the extra roundness, so I am impatient to see how the "real" 96cm look like and hope they will also look like a B.

And every bra that has a shape on its on even if soft is not showing the real size, in my opinion. You can fit bigger bras easily because they are low cut, the big part of the breast is supposed to be outside of the bra, so if you are smaller, bigger part of your breast is in the bra, but you still don't have gaps. Somehow you talk as if I was a small kid who doesn't understand the simplest things and actually you misunderstand everything and miss points..But on the other side, maybe it just sounded like that, any way, I wish you much luck, you are making great progress too!! And soon we can all judge if I look like an A or B

Granted, I was feeling pretty confused because in one post you said you were an A and wondered what a B would look like on you, and then in your last post you said you fit a B bra so I was terribly confused, so I had to have fun with it and make a joke. Because, well, that is just how I am But a small kid? YOU? On the contrary! When I think of you, I think of you as the engineer of BN! You are incredibly systematic, methodological, and take your efforts very seriously. Reading some of your posts reminds me of the journals we had to write when we were doing our high school science fair projects. I am the only person in my family of 5 who is not an engineer, but I share the mindset of one as I am surrounded by it (if you know what I mean), so I appreciate your NBE approach

However! I do want to make sure that you know that bras and boobs don't really work very well in the systematic process, as much as we'd like it to . For example, if a chart says you are an A cup, that means.... almost next to nothing. Surely you have seen how many variations of charts there are online? They are all different. Therefore, it is not like a science, really (unfortunately). The only true way a person can know their cup size is by knowing what bra size they fit. I mean, that is what it means when a person says "I am a 32A"-- it means they FIT a 32A. The charts are only made to help those who are not able to try bras on to determine their size, or they are just absolutely clueless at where to start with trying bras on. But they can only know their size by trying bras on. The charts are just a guide to the real thing, and the bras are the real thing. Based on that, if you fit a B cup, then you are a B.

When you say "if it will look like a B", what kind of B cup are we talking about here (meaning, what is your band size)? And yes, "looking like a B" will be completely subjective and up to you, so yes, no one on this forum can help you with that

Lightly lined bras shouldn't make breasts look bigger... unless of course the breasts are so small that there is no bra size that fits them, then yes, I agree with you. But, that would be an exception, as we were talking about using a bra to get an imaginary visual of what size a boob would have to be to fit that particular cup. This means, the boob would have to FIT the cup! So, why are we talking about breasts that don't fit their cups? Breasts should not even be wearing bras that don't fit...

"And every bra that has a shape on its on even if soft is not showing the real size, in my opinion. You can fit bigger bras easily because they are low cut, the big part of the breast is supposed to be outside of the bra, so if you are smaller, bigger part of your breast is in the bra, but you still don't have gaps."

^^I think you mean shape and perkiness, because the point of a lightly lined bra is NOT to add size (that is what padding is for), so your opinion of size is based on change of shape and perkiness. Which I agree, those bras gather all the side boob and place it in front and it makes them look perkier! But not bigger, unless one confuses size with perkiness. In that last line, it sounds like you are describing a "full cup" vs a regular "cup." If you fit your B (without any gaps) but the breast over the bra concaves, then you are a regular B cup. If you fit your B (without any gaps) and the breast over your bra is "filled out," then you are a full B cup. So, if you fit a B cup without any gaps, regardless of how the chest above the cup fills out, you are a B cup, girl! Forget the darn charts.

As far as me misunderstanding everything and missing points, I do not mind at all if you were to clarify or to make clear what you are saying. I mean, if when you say "I can wear a B" is the same as me saying "I can wear a D" then sure, yeah I guess I could, but it wouldn't fit. So, the question would be, what bra size do you fit? I haven't seen that written anywhere unless somehow I missed it. So of course, I am very confused! So, I suppose if you would let us know what bra size you fit (including band width, as cup letters tell us nothing without the band size), that might make things a little more understandable!

I can't wait to see your photos btw. I've been following you for a while and so happy to see you've made nice progress And I completely understand your desire to wait till you hit a certain mile marker before doing so! That is exactly what I did! I waited till I increased a full cup size. Otherwise it can get frustrating looking at "before" and "after" photos that look almost identical.
