It's strange. Hollywood & the celebrity press highly value full breasts. Yet how many young actresses have to think about breast reduction to get work--and maybe to get accepted by the public as serious professionals? Think about Miss Ricci, Drew Barrymore (see her trailerpark movie when she was 16), & Danielle Brisebois (in All In the Family--without, & then in Big Bad Mama II--with). And in the past, how many women had to downplay Nature's gift, wear figure-concealing dresses, because their full breasts worked against their public image or role in life? Marie Wilson as cute, simple-minded "My Friend Irma" in the 40s, Judy Garland strapped in for the Wizard of Oz, soprano-actress Katherine Grayson playing the modest, proper lead in lavish period musical films opposite Howard Keel (she often displayed a lascivious blush like she was thinking about fucking with the guy while conversing). These babes were 38s but weren't thought of in that way. And here's one for you. What did Marilyn Monroe & Queen Elizabeth II have in common in the 1950s besides their age?--They both had a 38-inch bust! Couldn't mention this in British press. With due respect to our Brit friends, at age 20 Her Highness was a looker. Hey, Mister Able Administrator, do you think this topic would make a lively new string?
