12 Struggles You’ll Understand if You’re a Girl With a Big Bum

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Nottingham chapter.

1. Being completely different sizes on top and bottom can make shopping a nightmare.

Short dresses? Dream on. Will they ever cover your bum or are you going to have to go to the ‘Tall’ section?2. Are high waisted trousers worth the trouble?

With high wasited shorts and jeans you’ve got to choose between them fitting your waist or your bum. You’d better decide whether to pair that with a belt or spend the day in trousers so tight you can’t be sure they’re not gonna rip. Beauty is pain and all that… 3. Therefore, this is a genuine worry:

4. Leggings as trousers? Think again…

Even the ones that are supposed to be super thick will become see through as they stretch over your bum. Long tops it is, then.5. And don’t bother trying to find a modest bikini 6. Sharing seats

Sharing a chair with someone at pres, squeezing on the sofa with your housemates to watch a film: these are just daily struggles which become uncomfortable with you have a large behind. At least you always get the front seat in a full car though, no one’s gonna wanna share the backseat with you. Silver linings and all that.7. Crawling through small spaces

Just don’t even try it, so not worth the embarrassment…8. The cat-calling

No, as a stranger it is not acceptable for you to touch my bum9. No, I can’t twerk I’m afraid

We’ll leave that to Miley 10. You can completely sympathise with Kim in this sitch

And if a millionaire with her own personal ‘booty tailor’ has this problem, what hope do the rest of us have?

11. But everyone thinks it’s a compliment

‘Your arse looks huge in that dress!’ your friend exclaims… Well, thank you?12. So you may as well learn to love it
