Right now, although I'm not at all surprised.
Just now
Grade 9- girlfriend at the time was "blessed" so to speak. Learned e women have a much more difficult time finding bras and underwear that "work" than most men do.
Now but I had my suspicions considering the trend with women's clothing.
They're definitely defined differently between some countries. Japanese cup sizes are different to US ones
Well I don't wear underwear at all already 😀
Username checks out
I think this is filed in my head under "no two manufacturers' sizes are the same (even if they're supposed to be to a standard)", and "this is especially true of women's wear", so while I may have known about bra cup sizes specifically at some point in the past, I'm not sure I did at the time I arrived at this post, and yet am thoroughly unsurprised to (re)discover it.
My understanding is that some European countries have laws standardizing bra size.
I'm sad I missed the days of girls wearing no bras. Must have been nice.
You don't live in Australia then.
Teenager. I'm an artist. I was drawing some characters. Had to find some references.
Around 19, I’d say. 42 now.
This old.
It is well standardized around here.
Probably around 14 or something. For whatever reason, people will often name DD as a large bra size around here. It also doesn't exist in our bra size system. Some girl pointed out that non-sense at school.
Europe, my beloved...
I always figured it was like pants where a 34 waist from company A wouldn't fit like one from B.
