Beats me, man. I never went to the trouble of figuring out any character's measurements, aside from height, weight, and build. Another thing you have to remember is that many fur-covered characters would likely appear to have larger breasts than what they possess, due to the added size illusion provided by the fur.

You are focusing an alarming amount of mental energy of this. Have you thought of...seeing a professional? ;P
--JMH, who admits to not knowing Des's bra size because he doesn't buy that kinda crap for her. Likewise, she doesn't know my waist or shoe size, so I guess it kinda rounds out...
