OK, I lied when I sent in the review about this site about my gender. I'm actually a male but figured it would sound better asking about it if I said I was a girl.

Anyways...

I'm an amateur artist and I'm trying to collect information about what typical sizes and stuff are for people ages 4 to 20. Finding out height (AKA stature) and weight was easy enough but now I can't find out what a typical range in size for breasts are for each age. I assume ages 4 to 8 the size is 0 always. I'm going to guess the range for a 20 year old is 0-8 (inches above the chest) with 2-3 being the most common size.

Anyone actually know of a graph like this one: http://www.magicfoundation.org/downloads/girlsgrowthchartCDC.pdf

WTF are you talking about? Inches above the chest?

The letter on the breast size refers to how many inches from flat with the chest, right? With A meaning 1 inch away... B means 2 inches away, C meaning 3 inches away, etc.

I'm not a girl... I'm not really sure how you define breast size... I assumed it was the letter and I assumed the letter corresponded with how many inches away from the chest the nipple was.

Hopefully it's clearer what I mean now... if not... then can you just tell me how you define the size of a breast?

Is this the wrong site to ask questions like this on? Should I perhaps go to a website on drawing instead...? It's a question I fill rather embarrassed to ask so I thought it would be appropriate...

I doubt it's anything as simple as that. Have a look at http://www.afraidtoask.com/breast/breastmeasuringcup.html

Girls before puberty are flat. After puberty they cover the whole range, so average sizes might be misleading. You can't estimate a girl's age from her cup size, because genetics cause so much variation.

Alright, I've got a decent source for this sort of information now... at least I have a better range I think...

http://au.answers.yahoo.com/answers2/frontend.php/question?qid=20080121115911AA67WsD

Looks like at 13 most girls are an A (1 inch, right?) but some are as large as a C and can be as small as nothing still (I'd assumed that all girls were at least A by 12.)

By maturity it looks like they can get up to H... although this is an Australian website... does that make their measurement system different?

(Oh, and thanks... I guess really I just don't want to make someone whose 12 years old and give them a D and assume that it's realistic and good.)

Any idea how common it is for someone to still be flat chested at 18+ old? Are more than 5% still flat chested at 18+ years old?

Can I ask why it really matters what a girl's chest size is?

He already explained, it's so that his drawings look realistic.
