When was the last time you had a look at your breasts? Not a breast cancer feel, but a good, solid I-might-become-an-artist-and-paint-these-little-ladies look.
Obviously, no breasts are the same. Not even two breasts on one woman are the same. They fall differently, and they fill differently. Some nipples take up a lot of real estate; some nipples take up a tiny corner on a main highway.

But a San Fransisco bra manufacturer, Third Love, has come up with seven main breast shapes. Apparently knowing which type you are helps with which type of bra you should buy. You know, there's your cup and back size and then there's the shape of your breast.
Apparently, the shape can impact on bra fit. Thanks, scientists in bra research labs.
We're interested in the talk about shape because we're stunningly, selfishly curious. What breast shape are we? Can our breasts even be defined in terms of a universal shape? Can all the breasts on all the women in all the world come down to seven shapes?

Enormous slender breasts here. Emphasis on the "nipple pointing downwards". Ditto paying a high price for 2 kids.
Hmmm. My breasts are very different pre-baby & post-baby. After having 2 boys my shape has definitely changed. I went from a very pert 12B wear-a-bra with no sag to 12A saggy stretched boobs which look terrible without-a-bra. I can't imagine life without my 2 beautiful sons but my body & boobs have paid a very high price.
