All the Women on this Show are Flat-Chested


I find it very interesting that on a show like Melrose Place which is very sex-oriented that nearly all the women are flat-chested. The only two characters that aren't are Alison Parker and Jennifer Mancini. And the latter, played by Alyssa Milano, had implants. Without them, she would be as flat-chested as all the other characters.

That nearly all the women on this show are flat is a weird coincidence ....

Flat-chested is going a bit far. A lot of the actresses have smaller(to medium if we're considering this shows female cast from S1-7) breasts. And still manage to be quite stunning! Never been into the large breasts thing, though some women pull it off quite well, if it's natural. I never look at Syd/Kimberly/Jane/etc, and think, "I'm not attracted to them because of the size of their busts".

You're a rare type of guy. Most men would rather have a big-breasted woman who sleeps around left and right on them than a small-breasted woman who is faithful.

Always been more attracted to petite women, who usually have smaller measurements...which isn't to say I would kick any of the MP girls out of bed. Allison REALLY gets on my nerves, so I'd need a few drinks in her case. I thought Sydney & Samantha were the best looking women on the show. Just Samantha's voice alone was so hot! Can't put my finger on why...

reply

Yeah, Sydney and Samantha were gorgeous. Jane with long hair was also gorgeous. Brooke Armstrong and Shelly Hansen were gorgeous as well..

Not Lexi. Wow!

Personally, I think don't care the least about a character's breast size. But then again, I'm gay. However, I think it's good that "Melrose Place" was more diverse in that sense, compared to other shows like "Baywatch".

Well, that was kind of the look back then... which sucked for me, as a curvy teen/young adult at the time! Kate Moss was all the rage in the early-mid '90s, so that "heroin chic" or "waif" figure was quite popular among women. Implants also weren't too mainstream yet, at least compared to how common they are now.

Here's a quote from Kate Moss's Wikipedia page:

"Moss featured in the fashion look heroin chic in 1996 (which prompted speculation over her weight) with a campaign for Calvin Klein. Bill Clinton spoke out against the trend. Moss said, "It was just the time. It was a swing from more buxom girls like Cindy Crawford and people were shocked to see what they called a 'waif'."

Big Breasts are over-rated. Once you've had them and had you're fun, the novelty wears off.

I prefer a smaller, thin woman, and with that comes a smaller chest. And I'm fine with that. Not that I wouldn't have minded Jennifer Love Hewitt having a cameo every so often, just not necessary. All of the women were smoking hot.
