I was a 36C or D, and at 5' 1'', I knew that being a small person with big boobs standing in front of an audience was not going to be easy. It would be really hard to get people to pay attention to me without mocking me.

I went down to a B cup, and it was the best thing in the whole world.

Like, "police officer who may be gay." District attorney is a big one. Lawyer. Doctor.
