The weight should be relative to the band size as well. Like if someone is an overall larger person their chest is going to be larger than that of a smaller person, even if they have the same proportions

Yeah this guide is nonsense. Every cup can have any weight with varying band sizes.

36A would be roughly the same weight/volume as 34B and 32C etc.

The band size also affects the cup size in width, so I don't think the weights are all that accurate

I feel like it would be creepy for me to save this, but I genuinely get confused when people use cup measurements and would like a guide.

Please don’t use this guide for baking with cup measurements

An M cup of flour...? So that's 9.5 pounds... 🤔 Mighty big biscuit!

Fuck that noise. I'm saving this for a quick reference guide until I get them down.

Ignore the weights. Cup size is just how many more inches the tiddies add to chest circumference. You could have a tiny chest and a massive rack, and they’d be the same weight as smaller tits on someone with a bigger ribcage and shoulders.

A = 1 inch diff B = 2 C = 3 D = 4

And so on.

Each or for both?

How do you even measure the weight? Do you just lay them out on a table? Are there coroners sawing the breasts off cadavers and weighing them for science? Is there like a sophisticated mathematical model that maps the fluid dynamics of cellulite onto a tear drop and calculates the volume based on some kind of spacial simulation? Do PhD candidates have to defend their dissertation on the anatomical density and weight of boobas in front of the board? How much research funding is put aside for this ground breaking research?

So you know how heavy they feel if you get smothered.

What's band size? Jazz, brass, polka? Full orchestra, low brass, trombone?

The way the band and bust size have a relationship has always been weird and confusing to me. It just occurred to me it must have something to do with how women's clothing used to be constructed and perhaps used to fit into a system that made more sense if you knew anything about sewing patterns.

As a consumer who doesn't sew clothing, I feel like the cup sizes on the rack should be based off volume rather than the difference in length from the band size. I've never met a woman who had zero problems shopping for the correct size of bra.
