Big boobs aren't all their cracked up to be, especially after time goes by. You have to look at that DVD and report back. Pleeeease.

Do rest your hands--for one thing, they deserve a little pampering after cranking out that beauty. ;)<BR/><BR/>The top you linked to had two inches of negative ease--that's probably the main difference (though I hear you on the small waist thing--it's as bad or worse for those of use who aren't as slim as you but have crazy hip(&bust)-to-waist ratios.<BR/><BR/>For the other, well, that's life in the patriarchy.
