At 34-G (swelling to a 34-H or I during lambing season as birthing hormones emitted by the sheep do something weird to my body) I have a pair of very large melons on my front. You wouldn't notice just how big they are as I hunch and choose clothes that don't show them off. Doctors have told me never to run or jog as this puts me at extreme risk of a broken clavicle.
34-inch ribcage is an indication that I have a very small frame which makes buying a bra with a big cup difficult. I have to special order or have custom made something that I won't spill out of. I stopped wearing bras a few years ago for a few reasons. At $600 a year, it ate up a huge chunk of my income. Also, the bra would try to distribute the weight between my ribcage (which caused stomach problems and constant hiccups) and my shoulders (causing nerve problems in my arms). But not wearing a bra has caused other health issues - different back problems, skin problems, self-image issues, different nerve issues in my neck... and so on.

As even if it was, so what? It's not good to worry too much about appearance, but people look at big boobs A LOT. I know from experience you're not being overly self conscious. When it's something that can have that much of an impact on your interactions with people and how you feel I think it's a justified concern. I shave my legs because I have thick dark hair and not shaving them turns into me making a public statement about female grooming rather than a simple it's time consuming and I just don't care. I don't have energy to be making that statement in the world every day so I just shave my legs (although sloppily ;p)
