I read a study that women with large breasts (D and above) have 24% less nipple sensitivity than women with smaller breasts. This might translate into larger breasted women not being that interested in nipple play during love making. I wonder if there is any validity to that study.
 
I didn't know there was a study, but I'll have to agree with the findings. When I was an H cup I had very little sensitivity in my nipples. I think it upset some lovers who had so much real estate to play with, but it was them having all the fun and I was wondering what all the fuss was about.

Then I had breast reduction surgery, and one of my questions during a post-op follow up was how did the surgeon rewire my nerves because it was night and day! All of a sudden I could feel everything! And it was almost too sensitive and reminded me of puberty, except not that painful.

It's settled down a bit, which is interesting because I was downsized to a D cup and have since settled into DD.

If you have a link to that study I'd love to read it.

A study conducted at the University of Vienna found that large breasts were about 24 percent less sensitive than smaller ones. This is probably due to the fact that larger breasts have more fatty tissue than glandular tissue, which is the more sensitive part, but that's not always the case.Jun 24, 2020

I don't know I entirely agree. I have a D cup now, but had an A/B until I was in my early twenties. Tits decided to grow sometime between the ages of 23-27 and now, poof, tits. The sensitivity is nearly identical, to even slightly more these days than those days.

Also to note: all my big boobie girlfriends looooved their theirs being played with. Size isn't a factor in desire for everyone.
 
Yeah, but that's just the abstract. Got the data?
150 white women somehow associated with plastic surgeons.
Not a large or diverse enough sample size.

Enervation does occur in lipid (fatty) tissue.
that would be different around areolas, as they serve to initiate let down in lactating women
 
Well I'd disagree, I have very large natural breasts and my nipples are plenty sensitive enough. I will add they can have a mind of their own when it comes to them randomly becoming erect for no apparent reason but on the whole I'm more than happy with the way I am, even if I wasn't there's not much I could do about that lmao.

Same.
 
Sorry I call bs. I have GG cup and my nipples are very sensitive.
Likewise I'm naturally large up top and have no issues, I don't believe necessarily the size of breasts make a difference. I guess there's a possibility that someone who's had major breast surgery could suffer from a loss of sensation especially when they go removing and relocating the nipples :neutral: I could obviously see that causing issues.
