QUICK! Think of a word or two to describe what happens when a bra is removed from natural breasts. The words “sag” or “droop” probably came to mind. These are words that carry negative connotations and do a terrible job of conveying the allure of breasts as they swell from confined hemispheres into real, convex, womanly curves, beautiful in all their motions.
[Before we tackle the main subject, please note one assumption from the starting point of design. The male chest is built from firm muscle. The female chest is designed from delightfully softer materials. I consider the pliancy of natural breasts as a POSITIVE attribute.]
I took the time to read every suggestion provided by the good folks at http://www.thesaurus.com. (Source: Roget's New Millennium(TM) Thesaurus, First Edition (v 1.2.1) Copyright 2006 by Lexico Publishing Group, LLC.) Some options like “slump” and “flop” are too depressing to mention. Some more neutral words are worth considering, but still seem negative or clinical: “subside, settle, deflect, descend, and lower.” Some of the more promising words I might try to play with in the future are: “relax, be pendent, recline, repose, go down, plunge, and swell.”
My favorite phrase I've been able to write so far is “the sensual shift of womanly softness.” I would love to hear about your favorite POSITIVE descriptions. (no debates about implants versus natural, pro or con, please)
[Note: I wrote this essay several months ago, inspired by and adapted from the draft of my story “Outside Interests” but I wanted to wait to start this thread until the story was posted. Between then and now, I noticed a forum post by Joesephus that mentioned the outstanding essay "Understand Breasts and Bra Sizes" by elfin_odalisque. Her contribution does a far more complete and humorous treatment about the subject in general. Please consider this thread a humble appendix to her masterpiece.]
