Sometimes, life sucks when you have small boobs. Young girls all around the world can't wait to grow up and experience the only good thing that comes from puberty -- boobs. Except someone forgot to mention that not all good little girls inherit these assets. Therefore, the rest of us losers have to work with what we have (or don't have). Here is an optimistic outlook on being flat chested at 20 years old.
1. You're a proud member of the IBTC.
For those of you that are either male or blessed with normal boobs, the IBTC stands for the itty bitty titty committee. Sounds so funny, right? Growing up this was the worst insult you could give me. It was equivalent to calling someone a Mudblood in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. No matter how you want to phrase it, it's a way of life. All of us 20 some year olds living with an A cup understand the struggle. Once you've been dubbed a member, you are there for life. Although at first this may be an insult, don't worry -- you'll have life long friends to complain about your boobs with!
2. Working out isn't as painful.
Okay, so working out is still painful, but it could be worse. Running isn't as dreadful when you don't have to worry about your boobs staying in place -- they're barely there so they don't even bounce! Sports bras also are wonderful because you don't have any annoying padding to mess with because you don't need any! The best perk? Boob sweat is kept to a minimum because the whole lack-of-boob situation!
3. Guys will always look you in your eyes.
I mean what else is there to focus on? Dating is tough, but when you have to sit there and wonder what parts about you he is actually into makes it more painful. Flat chested girls don't have any distractions so it's perfect.
4. Bralettes.
Yup, that about sums it up. It's like a sports bra but lacy and cute. No underwire, no annoying straps, just prettiness all wrapped up into a bra. We don't need to worry about our boobs sagging (because let's be honest -- they can't sag if they're not there) and we also don't need to worry about needing support.
5. Actually, no bras.
Yup, it's that easy. You know how many times I've gone in public without a bra on? Too many times. If you're wearing a hoodie, then game over it's like you don't even have to try.
6. Back pain isn't a reality.
Not once will you hear a flat chested girl say her boobs hurt or her back hurts because of her boobs. It's magical how gravity has no effect on our bodies.
7. Victoria's Secret always has our back.
Or our front for that matter. The magic of a pushup bra is something that cannot be out into words. Transformed is our 12 year old boy bodies and outcomes an actual woman (until we take off our bra, that is). Regardless, we have plenty of options to work with. Who needs plastic surgery when you can buy a wonder bra?
8. You probably have a nice butt.
Unless you have awful karma, I can't imagine God having you lack in both departments. You have to compensate somewhere, right?
So for all of you ladies who hate trying on swimsuits because all you can focus on is your lack of assets -- stop worrying. Put on a good bra, text your IBTC fellow ladies, and stop fretting over something you can't control. Yes, there are plenty (and I mean plenty) of cons of being flat chested but the more you worry about it, the worse you will feel. There are bumps in the road in life, but not on your chest and that is something to be proud of!
