Say it to Sappho: I find her flat chest a turn off

Sappho April 9th, 2010 by Sappho

“Dear Sappho. I find my girlfriend’s flat chest a real turn off. She is really sexy and toned, but when she gets undressed I find I am turned off by her masculine body. My friend’s think I am really lucky to be with someone as fit as her. I was thinking maybe of offering her an enhancement for her birthday, but one of my friends thinks she might take offence. Do you think that would be out of order?”Anon

In the words of the great philosopher Steven Morrissey ‘some girls are bigger than others’. We are all different shapes and sizes and we should celebrate that instead of wasting energy on striving towards media stereotypes or stressing about some mythological perfection.

If your partner is not happy with her body then it is for her to decide if she chooses to change it. It is not for you to dictate to her what she should look like. It may not just be offensive but deeply hurtful and bad for her self-esteem to suggest it.

If what is important to you is sleeping with someone who fits your perfect body type then maybe you are with the wrong woman. However if you are contemplating a long term relationship based on appreciating your partner as a beautiful, multifaceted being then you need to face reality. Even if she did have the perfect body in your eyes we all change over time and you need to love her for who she is not what you want her to be.

  • I think you should leave her - you and your friends are too shallow to be getting involved with real people.

  • if you don’t like her body shape why date her in the first place.it’s not as if she became flat chested over night!! i think offering her a enhancement will crush her confidence and probably end your relationship.you either love her how she is,or not at all.

  • Like you,I enjoy large breasts, and I have my very own set. However… It’s beyond me why anyone would want to change another person for sexual gratification. You must fall in love with her toned chest to save your soul from extinction. Or perhaps move along and email me her cell number–? Sheesh, you are lucky she is not going to die on you due to being unhealthy, so you want to put her under the knife. ??? Ask yourself this: Should she die on the operating table, how would you feel? Your answer will reveal your character…
