The Metro has a wonderful feature today - highlight breasts, of course! We've all got 'em, and while men can't exactly figure out why they like them so much ('I don't think even men understand why breasts are so mesmerically fascinating to us. It's a conundrum not even Einstein could have solved."), women have their own feelings on them. Whether we love our breasts, use them to get what we want, or loathe 'em, it's a topic we seem to be well versed on. (For better, or for worse...)
"When, like me, you're a mixed bag of body parts with terrible eyesight (I'm blind as a bat), good pins (but ugly-sister feet) and Denis Healey eyebrows if not regularly tamed, it comes as a blessed relief to have a cleavage. I may have had bottle-end specs but I've got lift... I've always had lift. The boys at school noticed before me."

"I'd been waiting for my operation for a couple of years and finally had it done in the middle of June. I had it on the NHS as my boobs were so big they were making me suffer from a bad back, bad shoulders and bad knees. I used to get a lot of unwanted attention. I was a 38G – and just going down the street to do the shopping, I would have people shouting, “Oh my God, look at her tits”. It tends to grind you down after a while. I'm now down to a 38C. It's only ten days after the operation and I feel very different. I look slimmer, my shoulders look smaller and my back is straighter."

"Men are much less aware of how fat you are if you can distract them with acres of cleavage. Using this technique, I've managed to pull men way out of my league. My female friends are fine with it too as most of them think, “If you've got 'em, flaunt 'em”."
Maryam Shah, 27, Surrey
"I'm quite well-endowed but am currently pregnant and my boobs have tripled in size. Suddenly men seem to think I'm Pamela Anderson [below] and even the baby bulge does not stop them having a good look. In fact, I've had more cheesy chat-up lines pregnant than not – mostly on the No. 73 bus."
Juliet Coombe, 37, North London
