Marie Claire Weighs in on Small Busts

Did you guys see the story in yesterday's New York Times about the latest trend — small breasts? As Elisabeth Dale (née Squires), who wrote Boobs: A Guide to Your Girls, told the Times, there has been "a huge surge in Web sites and online retailers that specialize in smaller bra sizes in a very empowering way." (Check out evesappleslingerie.com, for example.)

(Along somewhat similar lines, The Daily Beast recently ran a story about all the celebrities who were so unhappy with the size of their boobs after they got implants that they decided to have them removed.)

One guy said, for instance, "They fit pretty well in one hand — anything bigger would just be wasted."
