I don't want my breasts to get bigger

Dear Pastor,

I am 17 years old and I have big breasts. I do not have a boyfriend, but my mother has told me on many occasions that when I have a man, I must not allow him to play and squeeze my breasts often because if I do so, they will get much larger. My mother has very large breasts. I've always known her that way and she says that when she was my age and started to go out with my dad, he used to play with her breasts and he was the main reason why her breasts have gotten so large. I do not know if that is the truth.

I know I feel good when I play with my breasts. I don't have a boyfriend to play with them, but I do play with myself. I have never discussed with anybody what my mother told me, but I have decided to ask you. Is my mother correct? I would not like my breasts to get much bigger. So, pastor, I am hoping to hear from you very soon.

Dear A.S.,

I do not believe that your mother is correct. It is said by doctors that "caressing and squeezing the breasts not only stimulates them sexually and brings pleasure, but it could even prevent breast cancer." Studies performed at the University of Berkeley and the National Laboratory at Lawrence Berkely suggest doing this, stating that mechanical strength and applying physical pressure to the breasts could prevent control cells from becomes malignant.

Therefore, your mother is misinformed. Your mother's breasts did not get larger because of what your father did with them. Neither would your breasts get bigger when you have a husband and both of you are engaged in sexual pleasure. When a woman gains weight, it is normal for her breasts to get larger. And during adolescents, a girl may experience the increase of her size. But that, too, will change as she gets older.

Pastor
