Contrary to popular belief & common projections of young women coveting silicone enhancement before puberty is all but over, figures released in November reveal that a quarter of all British women would actually like to reduce their beast size.
The research conducted by Figleaves in October last year & the British Chiropractic association show that 70% of the women surveyed suffered from back pain due to large breasts & nearly half said that they affected their posture.
The average British bra size currently measures in at a cleavage loving 34DD & support for the breasts should be the number one priority over fashion when it comes to housing the Brits blooming boobies. Despite the longer term consequences of inadequate support for the breasts it seems that embarrassment prevents many women going along to be properly fitted with nearly half of the women surveyed stating they were 'too shy' to be professionally fitted & 25% put the lack of a correctly fitted bra down to time constraints.

at college I knew one girl who had a reduction and none with enhancements - though admittedly I went to a very feminist college. This doesn't really surprise me, though, given that most women do have brains and self-confidence (and therefore lower desire for enhancements).
Very true its just a shame that on the whole in the public arena brainy & self confident women are mostly under-represented!
