Boobs are not welcomed in North Korea

NORTH KOREANS DON’T LIKE WOMEN WITH BIG BOOBS: REPORT



As if nukes, missiles and political prison camps weren’t bad enough.

JoongAng Daily reports that having a full rack is seen as a disadvantage for women in North Korea.

This is in marked contrast to the South, where a thin figure and big breasts have become symbols of beauty.

According to defectors, if a woman appears well-endowed in the North, people think she is intentionally and lewdly stressing her femininity, and she can easily come to be regarded as a slut. You have an atmosphere that doesn’t allow women to wear revealing clothing, and the North is still a male-dominated society.

One defector from Hoeryong said she had a work friend with large breasts who often ate chives because she’d heard they make your boobs smaller. She added that she was surprised upon learning that women in the South actually have operations to make their breasts bigger.

Another defector said in the North, women with large breasts try to hide them. She was amazed that large breasts—something about which to be ashamed in the North—were considered a condition of beauty in the South.

idk why men like to pretend women can change our bodies with a thought and if we don't look a certain way it's because we're being deviant or attention-seeking

Seriously I wish I could change my body on a whim

what a clusterfuck of a statement.

I've heard guys act like this though, it's because they can't handle being attracted to someone so it's obv the women's fault and she's being lewd etc.

[maffinoyobiai.livejournal.com]

Ugh, men.

[djlancerock.livejournal.com]

sadly this is not unique to north korea

[a-cheshire-grin.livejournal.com]

Sadly not.
Just this morning I saw a documentary about "Sexual harassment at work" and one of the guys they interviewed said: "Well, men don't always mean bad things, when they tell women they're hot and stare at their ass and boobs! Women shouldn't be so hysteric!" I was like: What the fuck? You reduce a woman to ass and boobs and then you mean nothing bad by it?

So women should basically dress in a potato sack, so that guys won't get tempted? How is it the woman's fault, when a guy doesn't think with his brain, but another body region? *so much hate*

lol it's kind of like that in the US too (obv not to that extent though) it's really annoying what people equate having big breasts to. i have a small frame yet massive Ds and people think A. I'm easy or B. I'm showing off. idk how any of that is related. and it's impossible to hide too. i always feel like i have to wear loose shirts and things like that, but it's still obvious even then

I have friends who are like that and it annoys me how others some times think that. Tho for them, it's not guys (lol most guys I know don't care either way so as long as she's a girl), but from other girls. The insults that get thrown at them, honestly I never really understood it either way myself. It's not something one can really control.
You see it with people and idols and celebs and stuff. If a girl has a big bosom, she's either had surgery, is using push-ups, or is cheap since we can see them.

Well, more boobies for the rest of us then I guess.

[asiapopsecret.livejournal.com]

I just want to take all the North Koreans (that are smart and good people and who know that their way of living is bad but don't have a choice) and shove them into the south. Then I say, we blow up the rest of North Korea.

smh.

[djlancerock.livejournal.com]

[rosemaine.livejournal.com]

"if a woman appears well-endowed in the North, people think she is intentionally and lewdly stressing her femininity, and she can easily come to be regarded as a slut."

A phenomenon the world over really.

Did anyone read the horrible article about NK where due to starvation people are turning to cannibalism. The story was heartbreaking;_;

I was such a slut in 8th grade.
I had a G-cup and all.

[taylorniw.livejournal.com]

But what exactly do they consider 'big'? Because I swear if you have at least a B in SK you are considered big and anything above that is just some kind of anomaly.

[shineebambi.livejournal.com]

I was gonna say my boobs aren't huge but if I wanted to get a bra I had to go to the porn stores in Japan and Korea :/

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

Well, I wasn't planning on a trip anyway.

[asth77.livejournal.com]

Let's trim our hair in accordance with the socialist lifestyle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let's_trim_our_hair_in_accordance_with_the_socialist_lifestyle) - wiki page

Let's trim our hair in accordance with the socialist lifestyle,[1][2] or alternatively translated as Let us trim our hair in accordance with Socialist lifestyle,[3] was part of a North Korean government propaganda campaign promulgating grooming and dress standards in 2004–2005.[3]
It was broadcast on state-run Korean Central Television in the capital of Pyongyang and clips from the program were later rebroadcast on BBC 1. The television program claimed that , in part because of the deprivation to the rest of the body of nutrients required for hair to grow.[2] It was one part of longstanding North Korean government restrictions on haircuts and fashions deemed at odds with "Socialist values".[3]
