Her Life With Boobs Blog

Hi--

My friend, Jessica, and I have started a blog to deal with issues having to do with beauty--in particular, women's problems with boobs. The way boobs are sexualized (and of course they are sexual), the way images are more and and more pornographic, how girls are taught to both be ashamed of their breasts and at the same time, willing to show them off in tight shirts. 

The blog is a social justice project that aims to give women a space to explore the many issues surrounding our ideas and our physical experiences with our boobs. We have posted some stories, some news items, and a poll and questionnaire. It would be helpful if we could receive a lot of responses to our survey as well as some new stories.

Please check it out and tell us your own stories or give us suggestions as to how we can make the blog better or more relevant.

Thanks,

Bridgett Jensen

Love the blog! I'm very happy to have found a space for women to talk about their boobs... mine happen to be really small, and my life is more frustrating because of them. Perhaps this blog will help me :)

This is especially nice because most of the people in my life right now are guys -- sadly I just moved away from all my girlfriends. So if I ever need some booby talk I know where to go, lol.

Thanks!

I'm with poetic_revolutionary, I love that blog and am small breasted as well. I'm glad they'll have all sorts of perspectives on the blog :). I look forward to more on there.

I love this blog, too! Keep up the awesome work. I like how you pointed out in your post here that, "girls are taught to both be ashamed of their breasts and at the same time, willing to show them off in tight shirts." I can totally relate to this and really look forward to following your blog more closely!
