Do French Women tend to be less endowed than other Women?

Hello, I have a question for those of you who have been to France. I
have a friend that recently came back from Paris, and she said that
she couldn't find any larger bras to purchase in the lingerie shops. I
remember reading that Anne Cole, a top swimsuit designer saying that
French women, " had short legs and no bosom to speak of, though they
use push-up bras to great advantage."
I have heard that there are some men in France who, (supposedly)
like women with no breast, though I don't if that is really true or
not. Are French women born naturally with this boyish type of figure,
or is it just how french women themselves prefer to look?

Or perhaps they have a healthier diet?

(Putting my male chauvinist hat on: Oversized may have some advantages at
20. But it typically results in disaster at 50...)

They do, but their physiques are mostly the result of genes. No
American woman of Dutch and German ancestry is likely to look that small
and slender, no matter what her diet.

But that's because all Americans are fat.

If the human brain were simple enough that we could understand it, we would
be so simple that we couldn't.

That's a stereotype. There are many exceptions. I know, because I am one
of them. I am 5'7" tall, weigh 121 pounds. I am 68 years old. I don't
think I qualify as fat. But then, since I am naturalized French, perhaps
that is the reason(-:

I know Donna, I was joining in the stereotype thread.

Not all, just the majority.

Errr.......... had a lovely French girlfriend for 4 glorious years -
no longer a "feature" but still good friends.

No complaints, as it were.

Hi,

well I have some experience in this matter... that is to say buying my
wife some "genuine french lingerie".

my wife is a 34F... and she's hard to fit here... Fredericks carries
nice lingerie in F's, as does http://www.lovefifi.com (and they're
really great folks to deal with).

but finding larger than a D, even a C is a challenge in Paris...

but the women really ARE shorter (so are most of the men... look at pics
of General deGaulle walking in the crowds and he stands a full head
taller than the masses) and more petite so a smaller cup is in a better
proportion than on a taller american woman.

and yes... it is in part how french women WANT to look... it's one of
the reasons they smoke so much is to suppress the appetite and keep SKINNY.

The big push in Paris is string underwear, which has to do with maximum
"fesse" exposure. So this discussion should finally get to the bottom of
the issue.
