Body image and why the media is not solely to blame.

If you follow me on Twitter (@SharkySPN) then you will find that last night I had a bit of a boob rant. 

I was happily scrolling through an interesting read on the interweb and I came across something that made me extremely angry. Someone had posted two candid pictures of a relatively attractive woman, one with her wearing a low cut top and the other with her wearing a bikini. Underneath the images they had written a comment that read; 'flat chested girls is stupid too wear this.' 

... 
Ummm what the fudge!? 
For one, that is awful grammar. Secondly, 'flat chested girls'? 
I'm not going to be mean and upload these pictures but honestly she was about a cup size B. How in hell is that ׳flat chested'? 
I'm going to get nice and personal with you guys and share that I'm a 34B and I don't think that I'm flat chested at all. Yeah it would be nice to have a bit more but it's not the end of the world. 
I think that it's horrible to call someone 'flat chested', It's arrogant and is probably classed as bullying.

Having smaller breasts than others is not a bad thing (not had a complaint so far). 
They're likely to stay perky for longer and  you can wear pretty much anything without having to worry about squeezing your melons in. Laying on your front isn't exactly comfortable but at least it doesn't suffocate you. You can exercise without risk of knocking yourself out (meaning you are less likely to get fat) and back ache isn't normally a worry. 
Boobs are there for when you have a baby and you can breast feed, DD or AA either way they're going to fill up with milk and do the same job

We often blame the media for lowering our self confidence, but it is people like this who ruin my faith in humanity. I have never felt that I'm at all superior to other people, so therefore I have no right to judge anyone else's appearance. If you do, then you are a motherfudging twat. 

Sorry about that, but it really pissed me off.
