MODERATORS
I answered above but besides the increase in obesity (if it was fat causing the increase the band size would increase too) the sizing scheme has changed so a 34D is like an old 34B.
The real average is probably more like a 38 something, as the average waist is up to 38 and ribcage unlikely to be smaller.
I don't think it changed. I think people are more aware of their correct size now.
