Interesting Facts About: Breasts
by J.D. Dickerson on Jan.08, 2010, under Uncategorized
I’ve photographed nude, boudoir and intimate photos for a little over a decade. When I started photographing the body, I knew I would need to have a comprehensive understanding of it’s parts and their functions. This is the first post of what will likely become a series on fun, interesting, and informative facts about select parts of our magnificent bodies. If there is one area of most interest for the majority of my clients, it would absolutely be the ladies. Breasts are such a distracting source of fascination for both men and women that I figured my first body part post should be a fun fact sheet on breasts. Here are some neat facts about the ladies:
1. The left is usually the larger one. We all know no two breasts (as a part of a set) are the same size, in fact our entire bodies are not precisely symmetrical.
2. Cleavage is not determined by cup size. Breasts that are fuller in the middle, or that sit naturally close together most easily produce the illusion of cleavage, regardless of size.
3. The average cup size worldwide is B.
4. Well over 300,000 women will go under the knife for breast implants this year.
5. Over 100,000 women will undergo breast reduction surgery this year.
6. A 2007 study found that women who get breast implants are three times more likely to commit suicide.
7. Sleeping on your stomach can misshape your breasts over time. It is recommended to sleep on your side with a pillow underneath your breasts for support.
8. 8 out of 10 women wear the wrong size bra.
9. If measured, as if for a recipe, an A cup would yield 8 fluid ounces; a B cup, 13oz.; a C cup, 21oz.; and a D cup, 27oz.

- Just changed my major from Biz to Women's Studies. My company's focus is the advancement and equality of women. I'll hire an accountant.
- Considering past mistakes and what to learn from them. Biggest mistake my first few years in business: serving clients alcohol. Just don't.
- Got the CS5 suite yesterday. Sad to say I am underwhelmed. Content aware fill...not so much. If you're on the fence, stick with CS4.
- An amateurish search for Inspiration --> Seth Godin's blog --> Steven Pressfield's 'The War of Art' --> a firm, needed kick in the ass.
- After two months of quiet, readjusting to full-time school, I'm setting the stage to reignite The Body Studio's engines...

maybe in the near future there would be natural breast implants that are based on stem cells or something:.,
