You know how there are some questions which you feel you really should know the answer to but don't?

Well here's your chance to ask. If its that obvious then I'm sure SOMEONE must know.

I'll start it off.

Why is a double D cup bigger than a D cup, but a double A is smaller than an A?

Yeah, the sun is a star, but it's unique in that it's the only one we orbit (and due to its proximity, the only one that provides us with a significant amount of light and heat).

I've often wondered why there is a D, F, and G cup, but no E cup in bras.

Wikipedia says its cos E sounded too intimidating, so they went with DD.

Intimidating? Really? Zany.

I always figured maybe it was a couturiers' superstition or somesuch.

There is an E. E is the same as a DD. I'm not sure why, but it is. The only reason I know is because I am a natural DD/E.

For unusually large values of 2, yes.

Why are there 360 degrees in a circle and not some other number? It seems pretty arbitrary.

Its because of the ancient Babylonians. (you ever wondered why all good storys begin with "Its because of the ancient Babylonians"?) They thought that there were 360 days in a year, and so their geometry for circles evolved around that idea.

Sometimes it's four. Sometimes it's five. Sometimes it's three.
It all depends on what the Inner Party TELLS you it is, Winston.

It appears you only read 1/2 that sentence.

A 5 inch difference is either a DD or an E cup. There is essentially no difference between them, but some manufacturers are hesitant to use the "E" size fearing that it sounds too large, and therefore use "DD" because it sounds less imposing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brassiere

Also note that here in Japan, bra sizes start at A (Japanese A = US AA), and so are generally a cup size smaller. Both my last and current girlfriend were shocked when they went lingere shopping in the US and discovered they'd lost a full cup size. (And the former wore a US D/E cup. So don't ever say Japanese women are small breasted. ;))
