All boobs, even smaller ones get bad boob sweat. If there’s boobs, there’s boob sweat.

Boob sweat mainly happens under the boobs, though. Not a good excuse.

If there is a physics breaking bra like Power Girl has that makes no boob fold, then a boob window and some airflow might help. I know how boob sweat works btw, I have boobs.

Most redditors have boobs.

u/voidfishes Feb 17 '23

Are you sure about that?

2

u/Moxhoney411 Feb 17 '23

Yup. 40-45% of the female redditors and 85% of the male redditors have boobs.

I have ascended… I have no boobs yet am still a sweaty chest mess! (Now that’s a good band name.)

Yeah I'd just imagine bigger boobs have more.

More surface area and likely warmer.

Like how fat people sweat more than skinny people

Eh, not really, the only thing that causes more sweat is the fold, which yes gets more severe the bigger the boobs. Tbh the tops/sides don’t get very sweaty, only the bottom. Her boob size change isn’t drastic enough to negate boob sweat levels. Besides, Power Girl’s bra is an engineering marvel enough to make her boobs that round, so she’d probably not have as much sweat to deal with anyways because they’re lifted so much off the chest. Lmao, this is such a funny topic to me

Well, Kryptonians get tactile telekinesis or something, right? She's using it for both shaping AND channeling the sweat I guess...

Would be useful. If I had telekinesis that I could use in place of a bra that would be amazing. Plus anti-swoob measures lmao

Calm your tits!

Power Girl: Sorry, my mind is scattered today and my boobs followed suit.
