Areola: The Breast Forgotten Feature

[maskedmelon]

Lost in greater breast discourse to infinitely more important topics of form and mass, this all too often forgotten feature, I contend, is pivotal in general breast valuation.

It saddens me that excessive size of this blessed crossroads of the mammary significantly dampens the appeal of any pair of breasts. This is at least true for me, I suspect it a universal truth, though it may simply be a case of normalcy bias and those with or surrounded by massive areola may find them appealing.

As a general rule, I have settled that any adult hand, regardless of sex, is sufficiently large that aesthetically acceptable areola should not seep from beneath the edges of one's palm. Beyond this most general of rules however, I have failed, quite utterly, to identify ideal ratios or properly pleasing ranges either for nipple-areola or areola-breast.

Admittedly I have not given this the thought it deserves though the general idea weighs heavily on my mind whenever I am accosted by supersized areola on an otherwise pleasing pair of breasts.

What are your thoughts?

[poena.dare]

Such critical thoughts about another's body indicates an inability to be mindfully present.

Regardless of size, shape, density, or configuration you should rejoice whenever you have one in hand.

If something doesn't do it for you, that's fine; simply move on. Such pro and con woolgathering serves little purpose.

But I'm being to harsh, also. I have to admit that collaboratively exploring your tastes is one of many paths to self-awareness. Please forgive me.

Your original question is impossible for me to answer because I'm omnimammarian. Oh well.

As proper decorum demands - I voted bsh/twr - however "Moar, there is something wrong with me" was a strong contender and I am having overwhelming feelings of remorse for not voting that way.

Ohhhh, I am SO sorry Spyds, I did not mean to creat any conflict. I shall see to it that forum law is amended such that our forum warriors not find themselves in positions wherein they are forced to choose between honor and conscience.

To the topic at hand though, I am intrigued. Which of the following would you say played prominently in your desire to vote the way you were unable?

A wonderful thread. Eloquence. Breasts. In my walks through the valley of Teat I must agree that a too large Areola, and fifty cent piece is pushing it, is grounds for a silent kick from party.

Currently I am dating a set of breasts which please me greatly. They are ample and yet not too large. They are pert. The nippers are responsive to my tongue and the Areolas are of perfect size of stroking circuitously.

They are some of my favorite breasts. Thanks

Isn't it amazing how your eyes will pop to that busty babe and your depredation rises to the haft of your cock like the calloused hand of an ogre reaching for his Jagged Blade of War, only to realize half a second later that the tits are fake and she is but a mere scrumpet.

Tangental discussion abounds, but I see at least one voter is confused about the subject matter. To clarify, the areola is the ring of pigmented skin surrounding the nipple. It can range in size from very small to very large as indicated in the poll options, though variation is far less extreme among males than females. Excessively large areola are uniquely feminine in nature, but lack the general appeal of other feminine features among gynophiles. This thread and associated poll seeks to ascertain the reason(s) for this by identifying contrary preferences and their causes.

Would you rather your gf have a tight puss or loose puss... yeah.... gonna go with the nipples that aren't the size of cantaloupes...

to say something like "large areolas are gross" is insane. The totality of the titty must be taken in and its aesthetics assessed artistically.

To approach your enjoyment of beauty like you are checking items off a list -- small areolae, outie, no stretch marks -- is to submit your pleasure to prevailing social standards, in a sense cuckolding yourself even as you feign enjoyment of the titty. You are not truly enjoying yourself if you are assessing the mammary appendage in this way; instead you are translating the titty into its approximate estimate in fiat shekels and allowing yourself only as much enjoyment as (((they))) dictate you deserve for making this financial acquisition. This idol is your God and it is evident even in how you approach something as primal as tittymeat.

You are a nasty, small person if you operate this way. Anything can be done right, including large areolae.

Well, I am both nasty and small, but that is another discussion ^^ I am generally inclined to agree that "large" areola can be done right and indeed my areola-size-tolerance has broadened over time, but this is a question of excess and ideals with respect to the greater composition as outlined within the poll candidates.

Many things can be made to work and work well, but because they do does not diminish the general propensity of the thing. Large areola are indisputably disadvantaged in the arena of aesthetic prominence whether exceptional specimens exist or not.

If ever we are to right the injustice of areola size bias we must understand the nature of preference and whence it cometh, be it inborn or socially infused zog water as you assert.

What do you consider ideal?

if we talking quarters deal me in, if we talking dinner plates then ill pass on desert

I should add for clarity, large areola are like fingernail beds that bisect the field between the cuticle and fingertip, or second toes that surpass the big toe in reach. Both are tolerable and may even be appreciated as a part of a larger composition, but their nature is generally speaking, deleterious. That is to say, in the absence of other more virtuous characteristics, they are incapable of sparing the greater composition duly assigned ill-regard, as unfortunate as that may be :/
