An Australian comedian and YouTuber has shared the perils of having larger breasts in a video she posted online.
Tanya Hennessy re-enacted, in a tongue-in-cheek fashion, the scenarios that she has had to deal with, such as wearing certain bridesmaid dresses and people asking her whether she is going to get a breast reduction.
‘Yes I have thought about a breast reduction random stranger in Coles, thank you very much,’ she said in the now viral video.

‘I was just wondering if you have any bras in a double E? You do? How much are they? $900, excellent, can I have a look?’ Tanya said in the opening of the video before holding up an ugly looking bra.
‘Wow, it is beige and unattractive, isn’t it? I mean, that is the definition of practical.’
Although Tanya exaggerated in her clip, she is highlighting the struggles that bigger breasted women face on a day to day basis.

Tanya’s joke about her breasts looking like ‘glad bags full of soup’ hit home with some viewers commenting
Tanya also went on to speak about the physicality of her breasts.
‘I know they look amazing in the bra but when I take them off they literally look like two glad bags full of soup, really old, saggy soup,’ she said, describing her breasts.
This particular joke hit home for some of the women commenting and one woman responded: ‘I have the opposite problem I am a bigger lady but with teenie boobies try finding a 20B and instead of bags of soup I have used teabags.’

As Tanya continued to talk about the experiences of larger chested women she touched on the struggle of finding clothing options.
‘You think this would suit me? you obviously don’t have big boobs because we can’t wear strapless, we basically cant wear anything,’ she continued as she held up a strapless red dress.
Talking about swimwear she said: ‘Guys did you know if you’re a double E cup they make really good swimwear? That’s a joke, they forget about us, there’s nothing for us.’

She also touched on the problems that bigger breasted women have when it comes to being a bridesmaid.
‘Oh my god the bridesmaid dresses are backless? I cannot wear it, literally my boobs will hit the ground and I’ll get gravel rash at your wedding.’
After posting the video to both her YouTube channel and her Facebook page, the comedian has gained more than 930,000 views and the number is still growing.

This isn’t the first time that Tanya has made a parody video that has struck a chord with people online.
Earlier this year she shared a spoof ‘everyday makeup routine’ to highlight how unrealistic applying five eyeshadows, BB cream, primer, several lip products and more for an ‘everyday beauty’ regime really is.
In the four-minute clip, Ms Hennessy parodies countless vloggers’ love of products.

Ms Hennessy later moves onto foundation, for which she has two products; a cheaper product (pictured) and a more expensive MAC foundation, used when she’s had a spray tan
Beginning with primer, she starts applying the products to her face, explaining what she’s doing as she goes along.
‘I use a MAC primer that a lady sold me against my will,’ Ms Hennessy says in the video.
‘She was really attractive and I was threatened by her and just like: “I’ll just buy it because I’m intimidated by you”.
‘I don’t know what it does or what it is, but it’s very expensive and so I continue to use it.’
The video has struck a chord with many women, with countless people posting below the video on Facebook
Ms Hennessy even requests that beauty bloggers stop doing the ‘fish gape’ pose (pictured) – she says: ‘It’s hard to watch’
The comedian is especially funny on contouring, where she said: ‘I don’t really know how to do that so I just give it a go. I do underneath here to give the illusion that I have one chin.’
‘I do this darker thing, then I try to blend it together with… I have no idea,’ she said when she moved on to eyeshadow.
At the end of the video, Ms Hennessy concludes: ‘My eyebrows don’t look great. I can’t see out of my right eye because I think I’ve got an infection from the mascara… Anyone can wear make-up, just give it a go.’
