Greetings all.
This evenings post is more serious than what I usually post about but it is a topic that I find close the heart... literally!
So it is no secret that I am the (sometimes not so) proud owner of a very large set of boobs, some might not get the point of this post and might think I should 'count myself lucky' which I really would if there wasn't so many vile creeps in this world ruining it for me... and the thousands of other big busted ladies on this planet. This post is aimed at two lots of people, firstly the creepy vile men who can't keep their mouths shut and their disgusting thoughts to themselves when they see a pair of boobs, and secondly for any other ladies who feel exactly like me, and have a pair who haven't seen sunlight for months because they are sick and tired of the comments they attract.
The reason I have been spurred to write this post is because of 2 recent incidents that have happened to me over the past couple of weeks, one was being heckled in the street, in broad day light, whilst I was on my own and there were families about, "CORR DO YOU WANT A HAND WITH THOSE LOVE" as I was on my way to what turned out to be a 'pissed off & embarrassed' Nandos instead of a cheeky one. The second one was last weekend as I was on the last train home from a night out in town, as soon as I've had a drink my bladder turns into one of an 80 year old so I was making my way to the train loo as I reached the toilet there was a man of around mid 30's sitting there and as I passed him he muttered 'alright there boobs', now I was pissed and I needed one so I just told him to 'do one' and went to the loo. As I emerged he continues to make vile comments about my boobs and I've really had enough by now so I tell him to F off and stop saying these things to me. Little to this creatures knowledge (and much to my pleasure) my boyfriend and our best mate were just a few seats down and could hear me, so the story ended with the creep being forced off at the next platform by them and being called all names under the sun, and I hope - him being made to feel extremely ashamed of himself.
Now two things got me from this incident, one was that that man thought I was on my own, a 20 year old girl on her own on a train late at night and he decided to say those things to me, what if I was a different girl on her own, what could of happened then?
The second thing that got me was that I wasn't even surprised... Just angry, if you are a busty lady like myself then you will definitely know what I am talking about, and why we have to rethink our outfits wherever we are going and why our boobs are paler than any part of our body!!! WE ARE USED TO IT. How disgusting is that? Ever since I can remember having big boobs I can remember having all sorts of comments thrown at me, one of the worst being 'Look at the C****S on her chest!' Including men in clubs thinking they can just grab? And what I realised was that I have become so immune to it that it took this last incident and my boyfriend and Jake talking to me to make me realise that it's not something I should accept to be normal. I shouldn't have to stop wearing what I want to wear because vile men can't keep their disgusting thoughts to themselves. Instead we should be constantly teaching our sons, brothers, cousins, friends and everyone RESPECT. Why should women be made to feel ashamed of our bodies which are all beautiful no matter what size or shape, and being made to cover up because we are worried about what a man with no self control might or might not say to us. We shouldn't. And that's why I will continue to wear what I want and encourage women to do the same.
Peace,
Lillia
