This article is a summation of a dataset that covers the average breast size and other interesting breast and bra size statistics from around the world. The dataset covers more than 15,000 international measurements and +5,500 survey responses. Hopefully the data helps break down biases around breast sizes, such as comparing the actual average breast size with what people report to think average breast size of the population in different countries is. We hope that many more will use this dataset and uncover interesting and new findings.

Cup size and weight of breasts
To measure the weight of breasts in the dataset based on cup size alone we have taken the average band size of 32. The normal breast sizes run from A too E. Meanwhile there are three other scientific categories for breast sizes:
- Larger end of the Normal Spectrum – GG too JJ cup size (with 32 band)
- Macromastia – K too L cup size (with 32 band)
- Gigantomastia – LL too NN cup size (with 32 band)
Average US breast size
What the above tabulation shows is that the average US breast size is a C cup.
Measured in other ways the average US breast size is a 40C (when including band size), which equates to 3.3 lb breasts or 52 cu in.
Global average breast size
What we also see from the dataset is that the world’s average breast size fits in a bra with a 32-34 size band and an A cup. The global average breasts weighs in at around 0.5 kg
Average breast size by age
- Age 13: Breast size B
- Age 14: Breast size B
- Age 15: Breast size C
- Age 16: Breast size C+, at this age girls on average have fully developed breasts
- At age 50: Breast size increase on average due to menopause.
Ideal breast sizes
To better understand the statistics, biases, and the opinions about breast sizes we choose to include data on preferences and peoples understanding of breast sizes.
This will help both explain the biases that contribute to insecurities or can account for
For men
When asking men, if they prefer small, medium or large breast the answers are distributed as follows:
- 11.0% of men report that they prefer small breasts.
- 53.6% of men report that they prefer medium/average sized breasts.
- 35.3% of men report that they prefer Large sized breasts
For women
When asking women, if they prefer small, medium, or large breast the answers are distributed as follows:
- 9.1% of women report that they prefer small breasts.
- 60.4% of women report that they prefer medium/average sized breasts.
- 30.5% of women report that they prefer Large sized breasts
Comparing men and women
While 11% of men prefer small breasts, only 9% of women prefer the same. Conversely, 35% of men report to prefer Large breasts, while 31% of women prefer large breasts.
Overall, the preferences between genders are very similar, meaning that both genders have a bias towards larger breasts.
This does, however, not mean, that the reported average breast size is not a size that is actually unhinged from reality. It is very likely that due to human biases people believe the average breast size is different than the actual average.
Cup size preferences by Gender
Instead of asking about small, average, or large we gathered data on respondents answers to questions about specific cup size preferences.
Below are the results per gender:
# | Cup size | Overall | | | Men | Women |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
8 | AA | 0.55% | | | 0.8% | 0.3% |
5 | A | 2.65% | | | 3.4% | 1.9% |
2 | B | 22.8% | | | 19.8% | 25.8% |
1 | C | 50.4% | | | 48.5% | 52.3% |
3 | D | 16.6% | | | 18.8% | 14.4% |
4 | DD | 5.5% | | | 7.1% | 3.9% |
6 | DDD | 0.75% | | | 0.7% | 0.8% |
7 | E | 0.75% | | | 0.8% | 0.7% |
The results are clear:
- Over 50% report that they prefer a C cup sized breasts.
- Compared to women, men generally report to like smaller (below B cup size) and larger (over C cup size) boobs better, whereas women prefer B and C cup sizes more than men.
Ideal bra size versus most common bra size, by countries
Here is a side by side comparison of the reported ideal cup size and the average cup size for each country in the dataset.
Please do remember, that cup size are not necessarily an accurate or optimal measure of actual breast size.
