I can't resist.
I'm 59 and I'm not old; therefore, "almost 37" is not old, either. I'm 6'3" - you're a wee bit of a thing. I'm not gonna compare boob sizes with you , but 32C is not flat chested. Haven't you ever heard the saying, "More than a mouthful is superfluous?"
(warning - I've had a glass of wine and I'm borderline grumpy )
It may not be "old" in your world, but some days it's starting to feel "old" in mine.
6'3" means that yes, I am a "wee bit of a thing"... except that I've been this tall since I was 10. Taller than both parents, my sister, every guy I knew growing up (except one - and even he preferred my 5'2" best friend), my ex-husband, and I'm a head taller than 95% of the people I encounter on any given day. Without heels. (I'm 6' - 6'1" in heels)
No, 32C [see Av] isn't "flat chested" in my personal universe (it took several weeks to get used to being that "big" once I was properly fitted); it is flat chested when you encounter women on a daily basis who look at you and shake their heads in pity.
(Seriously - hardest part of my job is pointing out to [very rude] women who wear a 38H+ - which means a bust line 11" + larger than their rib cage - that *I* have to spend $75+ per bra too, because the only companies that fit me are high end French brands that start at $60 - $75 and quickly move up to $120 - $175+ for one bra.)
Really - I do appreciate who I am/what I have. I wouldn't want to be any different than I am, and on a weekly (sometimes daily) basis people mistake me for the mid-twenties nanny/upgraded younger second wife, instead of a mom of 5 kids (teenager to preschooler)... not everyone can say that at my age. But damn Hooters Girls are good for bringing all the body image/inferiority issues to the surface. LOL
